Biography[]
Victoria Argent was the wife of Christopher Argent and the mother of Allison Argent. The Argent family moved to Beacon Hills, California in 2011 where Christopher continued his ongoing private campaign to hunt down and exterminate werewolves. Mrs. Argent presented herself as the polite and dutiful housewife, but though she rarely displayed it, possessed an equal amount of fervor when it came to the subject of killing werewolves. (TW: Lunatic)
As things grew more intense, Victoria decided to take a more active role in the affairs of her daughter and her relationship to Scott McCall, whom she knew was a werewolf. Along with Gerard Argent, Victoria abducted and tortured the principal of Beacon Hills High School, forcing him to resign, thus enabling Gerard to take his place. As such, Gerard hired Victoria on as an office administrator and substitute teacher. Victoria called Scott McCall into her office one day and bluntly asked him if he was sleeping with Allison. Scott lied and said that he wasn't, but Victoria suspected the truth.
Later, Victoria found herself in a position where she was able to kill Scott. Derek Hale came to his defense and bit Victoria across the shoulder, thus transmitting his lycanthropy to her. On the night of the next full moon, Victoria refused to allow herself to turn into a monster. With the help of her husband, she plunged a knife into her stomach, just as she felt the first pangs of her transformation. Christopher had her body taken to the Beacon Hills Memorial Hospital and notified his daughter shortly thereafter. (TW: Party Guessed)
