Canon

Fandom
If Rebekah isn't the main character in fanworks, she is one of the most commonly used supportive characters in fics focusing on her brothers (Klaus and Elijah especially).
Common Pairings
Rebekah's het pairings include Rebekah/Stefan, Rebekah/Marcel, Rebekah/Klaus. While femmeslash isn't big in either of Rebekah's fandoms, she is sometimes shipped with Elena.
Fanon and Common Tropes in Fanworks
Rebekah is most often portrayed in fanworks as a witty badass, on par with her brothers. She often develops an almost sisterly bond with the show's female protagonists (Elena and/or Caroline especially). "I always wanted a sister" and "we're sisters now" are very popular dialogue lines in those instances.
