She finds out that her marriage to Hale is being arranged and he will be waiting for her at the altar. However, it was a trap arranged by Bo's father. Bo offered herself in Kenzi's place to save her and in return Freyja sent Kenzi's soul back to her body — which was in her grave and Kenzi awoke inside her coffin. After losing Hale, she wanted to find something she could achieve as a human rather than constantly feeling like she was struggling to fit in with the Fae. In his will, Hale left her land off the coast of Spain that had belonged to the Santiago family offhandedly mentioning that said land was actually an island, with an airport , and she chose to relocate to it.

Despite her departure, Kenzi agreed with Bo that they would always be in each other's lives due to their sisterly bond. Kenzi is last seen after Hades was sent back to Tartarus Rise. Bo left Tamsin's infant daughter, Dagny , with Kenzi to raise in the human world, as Bo stated that she still had work to do and wanted her to be safe.

Kenzi is seen driving away with Dagny in her car. It is uncertain exactly how long Kenzi had been raising Dagny, because being half Valkyrie she experienced accelerated aging, at least until puberty. In a scene from Can't See the Fae-Rest , we learn that Kenzi had accumulated a long rap sheet and employed many aliases while engaging in criminal activities:.

Kenzi is intelligent, very quick-witted and playfully sarcastic. Her one-liners often help relieve the tension when she and Bo find themselves in dangerous situations.

She is a survivor what Mayer , the Luck Fae , said when he tasted her luck. She can be reluctant to trust those she encounters, which is quite often a virtue, due to the fact that Bo is, at times, too trusting. She is a master of disguise, wearing various wigs and using accents which enable her to infiltrate places during investigative work. Her everyday appearance is predominantly " Goth " with a dash of playful femininity. Kenzi is a normal human with no innate supernatural powers and possesses average strength and stamina for her age.

Being one of the only two humans in Bo's circle, Kenzi is able to sever the enthrallment that can happen from contact with Bo's blood. She does, however, posses incredible skills as a criminal. She is described as a professional thief and con artist, evident by her extensive criminal record. She is well versed in skills such as pick pocketing, disguises and is quite a persuasive speaker on occasion. A testament to her resourcefulness, quick-wittedness and ingenuity is her survival instincts, as she ran away from home at an early age.

Given Kenzi's Russian descent and family background she is fluent in Russian and English, and is fairly connected to the criminal underground, mostly through her familial connections. In Season 4, Kenzi temporarily displayed Fae abilities.

She produced fireworks-like sparkles from her hands which emitted heat and disguised her humanity among Fae. This was due to a lotion provided by Massimo in exchange for cash or other valuable materials and artifacts.

The lotion's effect was limited in duration and had to be applied on a daily basis. Kenzi lost said powers upon the dissolution of her deal with Massimo, and his subsequent death.

Kenzi was being trained by Dyson in the profession of a Shadow Thief, the details and description of which were not discussed in the series, but she learned to remove items from others without their knowing. In Season 5, she mentioned that she still received instructions from Dyson on her training as a shadow thief, even after she left for Spain. In combat, Kenzi was trained by those around her in basic swordsmanship and other self-protection skills.

She is not a particularly good fighter, especially against Fae opponents, but is more than willing to fight for her friends and support them. Hale revealed signs of romantic feelings for Kenzi, but when he assumed the role of Acting Ash their relationship became reluctantly complicated. In Season 4, their status as romantic partners evolved and they became lovers, with Hale proposing to Kenzi in End of a Line. The producers were very supportive of me and my decision, and to have me back in whatever way we could.

They kept open minds and collaborated with me to help Kenzi return again. It's so humbling, and it never ceases to amaze me, how much Kenzi means to people. You go to set and do your job, and you feel that you're portraying someone who's special, but you never know how that person is going to affect people. From the interactions that I've been lucky enough to have, whether it's online or in person, every single time it's an eye-opening experience.

When people say "Kenzi has inspired me," or "I want a friendship like Kenzi and Bo have," or her ability to be brave and courageous in the moment, those are the things that affect people, and I find that to be such a beautiful thing. I've played this character for so long, and to have her mean so much to so many people all over the world I don't know if I'll ever get used to that. When you can touch people so deeply, it just makes your job so amazing.

Does the character of Kenzi end how you want her to? Did you have any say about how her storyline ends? I feel like the end of Kenzi as we knew her was the Season 4 finale. I really wouldn't have imagined it any other way, so again I thank the writers.

Kenzi has always been the most loyal, loving friend to Bo, so it's in her nature to do something so brave and selfless -- to sacrifice herself in order to save Bo and to save her friends that she loves so much. That moment where she walks into the portal and looks back, gives the final "I love you" It was genuine and beautiful. It's been an incredible ride for us all, right from the very beginning.

All of us have grown so much. Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end, and ultimately it's not up to us actors. It's bittersweet, but I think the fans are going to be happy with what's to come in the final season s. It's good, though, to end something at a high point, so then it'll stay that way in people's minds.

We'll have so many episodes that people can look back upon and watch whenever they want to revisit. Well, first and foremost, it's given me fans around the world who I cherish more than anything. It's given me the chance to create a character who has influenced me in my own life. During this, Kenzi was made to believe that Trick was dead and Dyson ] was likely dead as well, which was a lie told by The Morrigan.

Kenzi was threatened with torture and death by The Morrigan , but when she attempted to shock Kenzi with a teaser, it had no effect on her. Afterwards Bruce revealed to Kenzi that Hale had sacrificed an item which had been protecting Hale from harm to protect her. Kenzi then escaped with the assistance of Bruce, The Morrigan 's henchman who had a crush on her, and went in search of the Druid Massimo, intending to become Fae so that she could help Bo and her friends.

At the end of the Third Deason, Kenzi did not fully understand the implications of what had happened to her at The Norn 's home. She had a closer relationship with Hale but also had found herself threatened by The Morrigan whom Kenzi still owed a favour to. Kenzi also had a promise from Trick that she was seen by him as part of his family and would look after her. As a result of the events of the season finale and a belief that she needed to be stronger to help her friends who she believed were in danger, she made the choice to locate a Druid with the help of Bruce, one of The Morrigan 's henchman that had a crush on her.

With the deterioration of the world of the Fae, Kenzi's future was uncertain as the season came to a close. They encountered a Troll who would not allow them to pass over his bridge unless Kenzi agreed to guard it for him for two weeks.

Bruce did not allow that to happen and took over the guarding of the bridge so Kenzi could continue. However this meant that when Kenzi met Massimo, she was alone and without any help. Kenzi's first appearance in the Fourth Season was in the season premiere In Memoriam , which could be considered a Kenzicentric episode overall. As a result of the actions of persons unknown, the memories of Bo were wiped from existence which resulted in a change in the memories of everyone, including Kenzi.

Kenzi continued to live in the same place as she did previously with Bo, but did so by herself. She also took on the role of a private investigator similar to that which she and Bo had done previously. Kenzi also had a more intimate relationship with both Hale and Dyson , seemed also to have a relationship with Lauren , but her friendship with Trick seemed to be significantly changed.

Kenzi also appeared to have made a deal with the Druid Massimo to obtain the powers of a Fae, assuming in doing so it would make her Fae. However she was tricked by Massimo who only used spark extract, taken from the genitals of a Sprite, to give Kenzi the ability to shoot sparks from her fingertips, but did not make her Fae.

Kenzi was hired by Aife to locate her missing daughter, Bo, but had no proof of Bo's existence. However she did reveal evidence of memory tampering which led Kenzi and Dyson to finding the source of the memory loss.

After a confrontation with Vex and obtaining a device from a rare Fae item collector, Kenzi with the help of Dyson were able to restore the missing memories. This had several consequences, including that Kenzi now was on a search for Bo. In Sleeping Beauty School , Kenzi was devastated by Bo being missing and this began to overcome her, pushing all other concerns from her thoughts. Dyson then asked her to look after Tamsin who Dyson had found, but she had been reborn and was a child once more.

Hale , at the urging of Dyson , revealed his feelings for Kenzi and she did as well, though the ongoing changes in Tamsin made any resolution of their relationship impossible.

As a result of Tamsin flushing Massimo's portion down the toilet, Kenzi was forced to use an item she stole from Trick in order to pay off her debts and went to see Massimo to do so. During Turn to Stone , Kenzi was overjoyed to have Bo back home, but she was still responsible for Tamsin until Tamsin had a final growth spurt and became an adult.

At one point Kenzi revealed her relationship with the Druid Massimo, explaining to Bo that she left her alone and there was no one for Kenzi to turn to for protection when she needed it the most.

Kenzi also revealed to Bo many secrets she had and some of the lies that she had told Bo in the past came out. This stressed their relationship to the point that it almost broke, but they did reconcile, Bo explaining that she and Kenzi are family and that comes first. Kenzi also lost the source of her Fae abilities when Massimo was killed when he jumped into a furnace in an attempt to retrieve a lock of Tamsin's hair which Bo threw in to place it out of his reach.

However, in the aftermath, Dyson promised to give Kenzi a means to be "equal" to the Fae when the time was right. She attended a Dark Fae party with Bo and Tamsin where she encountered Bruce who was suffering a punishment given by The Morrigan when Bruce defied her. With Tamsin's help, Bruce was freed and was last seen with Kenzi and Tamsin, Kenzi telling Bruce that he could do whatever he wanted now that The Morrigan could not control him. The more critical part of the episode for Kenzi however was that in this episode she and Hale expressed their love for each other finally.

Hale is seen to be bleeding from his ears at the end of this episode but Kenzi is not aware of this fact. She was discovered moments after Hale attempted to convince the Una Mens to release Dyson when her cell phone rang. She was then imprisoned with Dyson, her seeming fate to be executed with him. While speaking with Dyson, he offered to train Kenzi as a Shadow Thief, saying the time was right for him to do so when they were freed. Bo managed to do so, and the promise Dyson made was yet to be fulfilled.

During Groundhog Fae , Kenzi was trapped in a time loop with Hale during a celebration of Yule and repeated the same moment over and over again with him, Hale trying to make the moment perfect for her. Eventually she discovered what Hale did, but did forgive him, explaining that she understood that for them things would never be perfect and she was okay with that.

She and Hale had their first intimate moment in this episode as well. At the end of the episode, Kenzi gave Bo a parcel which was addressed to Bo in her own handwriting which Lauren and Dyson had been arguing over whether to give the package to Bo or not.

Following this, Kenzi returned to Hale for the rest of the Yule celebrations. In Destiny's Child , Kenzi and Tamsin confronted Trick in an attempt to discover why he had not been helping Bo in the time after she had been taken by The Wanderer and then returned.

Trick refused to answer Kenzi's questions, becoming very angry with them before he left them behind in his lair. Kenzi and Tamsin then searched for clues, eventually locating Trick's book of blood and Kenzi deciding to use some of Trick's blood in an attempt to fine the answers they were looking for.

After opening a box with Tamsin's help and obtaining some of Trick's blood, Kenzi wrote Bo's name with her finger in the book, but nothing happened. Tamsin then touched the book and had a revelation of her past which involved Trick. Kenzi was forced to use a hammer to free Tamsin of the book and when Tamsin awoke, was warned by Tamsin not to trust Trick, but the reasons for this were not revealed.

During Waves , Kenzi revealed for the first time that she had been training with Dyson to become a Shadow Thief, showing off her abilities by revealing she had stolen Lauren panties without her knowing. Dyson claimed that he did not teach Kenzi how to do this however. As a result of Bo severing her ties with her friends, including Kenzi, Kenzi took it upon herself to accept a case from a Fae who had lost her legs under mysterious circumstances.

Through this case it was learned that Kenzi adored mermaids and that she also was a Tahiti sunrise girl when it came to her manicure colour. Kenzi also mentions another of her cousins named Dimitri during the episode. End of a Line saw the highest and lowest points of Kenzi's life unfold. Through Hale 's actions, Kenzi came face to face with her mother Galina and her cousin Dimitri. Hale did so as he felt it would not be right to ask for Kenzi's hand in marriage without her mother's permission.

Kenzi and her mother attempted to reconcile, but in the end this did not happen. Hale's proposal to Kenzi was interrupted by her cousin and Kenzi did not actually accept Hale's hand in marriage.

However, she did take Hale's engagement ring with the plan to accept in the near future. Before Kenzi could do so, Massimo attacked her and Hale came to Kenzi's rescue. After seemingly killing Massimo, Hale turned his back on him and Massimo killed Hale by driving a long blade through Hale's back.

It was revealed that Massimo had survived plunging into a furnace earlier in the series and Hale's attack because Kenzi had given Massimo Hale's gift to her of the Twig of Zamora, which protected the bearer from all harm. In the aftermath, Massimo told Kenzi her debt was paid in full before leaving her holding Hale as he died in her arms. Hale told Kenzi before he died that he loved her, and Kenzi wailed that she wanted to say yes to marriage, but never did.

Bo refused to do so as if would kill Kenzi and Bo told Kenzi that she would always choose Kenzi over anyone else. Kenzi was devastated by this and swore she would never forgive Bo for this decision. Bo used her powers to calm Kenzi before they both mourned Hale's death as they huddled by his body. She demanded revenge and the death of Massimo for what he did, Bo promising that Massimo would pay for his crime.

Kenzi, Bo and Dyson confronted Massimo, but when Massimo whispered to Dyson something that neither Kenzi or Bo could hear, Dyson refused to allow Massimo to die and locked him away in Trick 's lair. Kenzi saw this as another betrayal and then asked Vex to help her kill Massimo.

Vex then also betrayed Kenzi when it was revealed that he swore a Blood Oath to protect Massimo. Eventually, Kenzi found a book with a prophecy in it that described everyone in Bo's life except for her and it was the final straw for her. Kenzi demanded that Bo unclaim her and after an argument, Bo did unclaim Kenzi.

Kenzi then stormed off, destination and goal unknown with Bo telling her that they were not finished. However, Kenzi replied, angrily, that as far as she was concerned she was finished with the Fae and everyone connected to them. When she learned this, Kenzi punched The Morrigan in the jaw, saying that she had been waiting three years to do so. Later in the episode, Kenzi found a passage in Rosette's book which indicated that "The Daughter's Heart" would have to be sacrificed in order to stop Bo's Father from arriving on Earth.

Before Bo went to confront Massimo and rescue Lauren who he had imprisoned, Kenzi gave Bo the sword Massimo had used to kill Hale , knowing that Bo would somehow succeed in doing so. Before Bo could return to the site of the portal, Kenzi came to the conclusion that she would have to sacrifice herself as he was, in fact, Bo's Heart.

Dyson attempted to dissuade her, but Kenzi explained that Rainer must have foreseen what would happen and as Tamsin would still have to take Rainer's soul to Valhalla, she would "hitch a ride.

Bo arrived in time to see Kenzi approach the portal and then be killed by the release of energies which happened when she entered it. Immediately afterwards, Tamsin claimed Kenzi's body and soul and disappeared with them to Valhalla. At the end of the episode, Tamsin said Kenzi was "gone" but was not clear what that meant exactly.

Soon after, Bo went to Kenzi's grave where it was revealed that Kenzi's full name was MacKenzie'Kenzi' Malikov, that she was born in and her epitaph read 'Friend. At the end of the Fourth Season, Kenzi had perished, sacrificing her life in order to stop Bo's Father.

For all intents and purposes, her soul was likely in Valhalla, taken there by Tamsin, her future uncertain and unknown at that time. Kenzi had not been hurt in anyway, in fact she was being pampered and well looked after. Upon her reunion with Bo, Kenzi was sent a message from Hale which foretold their coming marriage ceremony.

After some soul searching with Bo, Kenzi prepared for her wedding, managing to survive an attack by Tamsin who, under the influence of Bo's Father was searching for Bo. At the moment of the ceremony, Freyja stopped the event and claimed that Kenzi was promised to another Realm, as such she could not marry Hale. Bo offered herself in Kenzi's place, which saved Kenzi. When Tamsin revealed that Bo could have taken Kenzi to Earth because of the Helskor, and saved them both, that was rejected by Freyja as Kenzi had demanded the Bo unclaim her during the Fourth Season.

Upon Bo being sent to her Father, Kenzi was returned to Earth by Freyja, sent back to her body, which was buried in her grave. She was returned to Earth, trapped in her grave, but after a short time was rescued by Dyson and Lauren who dug up her grave, Lauren giving Kenzi medical attention that Kenzi wasn't thrilled about, but was thrilled when Lauren provided some "medical vodka.

After returning home, Kenzi gathered items to preform a seance in an attempt to contact Bo, including a Ouija board that Trick provided. After Lauren had what Kenzi called "ghost sex" they performed the ritual and then discovered that the spirit they were being haunted by was not Bo's.

Kenzi destroyed the Ouija board with an improvised flame thrower shortly thereafter in an attempt to stop the haunting. At the end of the episode, after Bo had returned from Hel, Kenzi was part of a celebration at the Dal Riata where Dyson gave Kenzi the deed to some Santiago property off the coast of Spain which Hale had bequeathed her in his will.

Kenzi told Dyson that she felt Hale was close by in the afterlife and that he seemed to be happy which was a small comfort to her. Shortly afterwards Kenzi saved Lauren's life when the spirit they thought was destroyed had become corporal and attacked Lauren, Kenzi ending the threat. At the end of the episode, Kenzi met with Bo alone in their home and revealed that she was leaving Bo and the Fae world, telling Bo that: "I can't keep being a lost human in the Fae world trying to be Fae.

Bo's last words to Kenzi were: "I love you Kenzi. Sometimes I think it's the only thing I am completely sure about. The final image of Kenzi was of her walking away from Bo's front door carrying her bag and two suitcases as she disappeared from view. Kenzi returned in Like Father, Like Daughter where she teamed up with Bo to locate a painting that could banish the Ancients from Earth.

During the episode it was revealed that Kenzi's estate in Spain was a castle, that she was regularly being visited by Heathcliff Santiago, Hale's grandfather, and the two shared stories about Hale regularly. It seemed that Kenzi has been well looked after through what Hale left for her and, one assumes, by the Santiago family as well. Kenzi's look changed significantly, she having more of a worldly outlook through her new experiences. During the episode, Kenzi became aware of Dyson having a son, Bo's father being on Earth, and the overall situation they found themselves in.

Kenzi went undercover as a tour guide at an art gallery as part of a plan by Bo to recover the painting, at one point offering to use her Shadow Thief skills to do so, but Bo refused. Kenzi was present along with Trick when Bo discovered the secret of the painting.

She was also present when an attempt was made to banish Zee by using the painting to do so. At that point, Kenzi became aware of Lauren's hew abilities as a "Conduit" along with several others.

At the end of the episode, Kenzi announced that she would be remaining for a time, but staying elsewhere and not, it seemed, at Bo's home. Before she departed, Kenzi warned Bo not to trust Hades, her father. During Follow the Yellow Trick Road , Kenzi returned in response to a letter she received that called her back from overseas in response to Trick and Aife's deaths. Initially she assumed it was from Lauren, but it was revealed that the letter had been sent by Hades instead.

Tamsin hit Kenzi on her shoulder to capture a moth that had been the source of Bo being in a coma as well. Following the cure being given to Bo, Kenzi pleaded with Bo to come out of her coma, Bo eventually doing so. Following this, Kenzi was present when Trick's will was read. The will stated: "To Kenzi - the ring of Yggdrasil.

This ring will grant you freedom from claiming, allowing you constant passage between the Fae and human worlds. Kenzi then held Bo's right hand as part of the Family's remembrance of Trick, they sitting in a circle with joined hands.

In Let Them Burn , it was seen that Kenzi had returned to Bo's home once more, at one point telling Bo: "This crack shack will always be home. Kenzi was present when Vex was taken to Lauren's clinic for medical help and learned from Vex that Bo's midwife was still alive and that they needed to see Evony to find out more.

Kenzi when with Bo to see Evony, finding Evony holding a charity event to raise money to find a cure for the Fae curse she was suffering. During this, Kenzi rode a unicorn named Otis who was described as the last of his kind, fulfilling, in a way, one of Kenzi's wishes.

Kenzi was present when Bo came to the conclusion she was the Pyrippus, and learned of Bo's intentions to surrender herself to Hades in an attempt to stop him. The last seen of Kenzi was she and the others surrounded by fire, the clubhouse collapsing around them, and time running out. In the series finale Rise , Bruce saved Kenzi and everyone else that had been trapped in the fire that Bo had set at Hades' direction. Kenzi found herself having to defend Bo at several points in the episode when there were suggestions that Bo was lost, but Kenzi never accepted that.

While traveling in Vex's motorhome, Kenzi discovered Vex collected German Weimar porcelain, which she commented might be Vex's weirdest fetish. When Bo fell to Hades' influence and took the Chi from everyone in the city, the horseshoe that Kenzi possessed protected her and everyone with her, Kenzi keeping possession of it until Bo appeared.

Kenzi attempted to bring Bo back, but this failed, the horseshoe was broken, and Kenzi was thrown from the roof of the motorhome where she had been talking to Bo. After Bo tried to feed on her friends, she was returned to normal, if despondent, Kenzi and the others trying to help Bo overcome this.

When Tamsin appeared and began to give birth, Kenzi remained to help alongside Lauren while Bo confronted her father. Kenzi was present when Tamsin gave birth to Dagny, her daughter and was also present when Bo overcame Hades. Following this, Kenzi watched as Tamsin ascended to a new form and left the Earth behind. Bo gave Dagny to Kenzi who left with Dagny to hide her in the world of humans until she became of age, Kenzi therefore became Dagny's adoptive human mother.

Kenzi tells Bo: "You know, I never lost faith in you. Even when I almost did I didn't. I love you. Kenzi was human and had no Fae-like abilities at the beginning of the series. This statement however did not remain completely true through the end of the Third Season of the series. Her inherent human abilities included: She was a professional thief, having many abilities such as lock picking, hot-wiring cars, card-sharking and similar abilities. She was a very persuasive speaker, able to con others into believing her stories and claims when she was masquerading in other roles.
