'Legacies': Did the gargoyle come to protect Landon? The two most probable theories about the knife thief

Landon Kirby may not be Percy Jackson, but he's definitely not a character that is as simple as he looks. So, what is with Landon and the knife? Who is he?

Apart from Hope Mikaelson (Danielle Rose Russell) and the Saltzman twins, there is one more character who has come right off the season finale plot of 'The Originals' into 'Legacies'. You know what that translates to, right? He's about to be hella important in the show.

We are talking about the broody and strange Landon Kirby (Aria Shahghasemi), of course. Hope's love interest and a boy with a strange affinity towards a mysterious knife that started the mess the Salvatore School is in, there's always been something special about the character. There have been numerous theories surrounding Landon and the knife and these two really stand out.
