* BadBlackBarf: This shows up for a few reasons. For one, it is a side-effect of poisoning, usually by wolf's bane, but other agents such as mistletoe and Kanima venom cause this as well (as seen with Cora and Erica). While werewolves possess a powerful HealingFactor, their bodies can't properly heal from poisons and results in weakening of their bodies and blackened blood. Another cause of these symptom can actually come from the bite of an Alpha werewolf. While most humans can be turned into werewolves via an Alpha's bite, some people suffer an extreme rejection to it, leading death in most cases.

[[folder:General Werewolf Tropes]]
!!General Werewolf Tropes
* AbsurdlySharpBlade: Werewolf claws are closer to knives than to animal claws or human fingernails.
* AudibleSharpness: Werewolf claws also have their own sound effect when extended.
* TheBerserker: All new werewolves are like this initially, especially during the full moon. It does lessen later on, either through experience, by holding onto an "anchor" - usually a feeling or a person - or by reciting a mantra until the rage passes.
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Played with. Werewolves are in some ways quite different from humans: they live in packs with specific hierarchies and structures, they spend part of their lives as a human-monster hybrid or a full animal, and their physical abilities and health are way beyond those of average humans. As a consequence, a lot of their interactions come off as very rough and overly violent to humans and bitten werewolves unfamiliar with werewolf norms. Is made a point of characterization for several characters, especially Derek.
* TheChosenOne: Becoming an Alpha usually works in two ways: inheriting an Alpha's power when they die, and [[KlingonPromotion plain murder]]. However, there is also a third, extremely rare option: turning into an Alpha purely by power of character. This is called a True Alpha, and [[{{Protagonist}} unsurprisingly]], Scott [=McCall=] is one.
* CurseThatCures: One of the perks of getting transformed into a werewolf is the healing factor taking care of injuries and diseases: Scott loses his asthma, Erica no longer experiences seizures, and Liam heals a broken leg. This seems to work for physical ailments only.
* TheEmpath: Played with in an interesting way. Werewolves are by no means psychic, but can sense emotions such as anger, arousal and even disgust. Derek reveals that this is due to their sense of smell; by picking up on hormonal changes in a body through chemo-signals, a werewolf can tell what state of mind a person is in, even in places where a person has been.
* EvilDetectingDog: As apex predators, werewolves scare regular animals. Both wild animals and pets react either aggressively or fearfully when a werewolf is near, even when they are fully human. In the pilot alone, we see deer stampede away from the Alpha, clinic animals bark and hiss at Scott during his first few days after being bitten, and a dog growling at Derek at a party.
* GoodThingYouCanHeal: With very few exceptions, werewolf characters will have to make use of their healing powers - they'll be attacked by other supernatural beings or hunters, get electrified, shot at, poisoned, set on fire, stabbed, bitten, clawed, and even get their limbs cut off. Beacon Hills is a dangerous place to be a monster.
* HealingFactor: All werewolves heal quite quickly, though various, usually supernatural means - from an Alpha's claws, to demonic swords to various species of wolfsbane/aconite - can make the process more complicated.
* HealingHands: Werewolves can absorb physical pain from other beings, which is used as a plot point and a way to illustrate character motivations several times.
* KlingonPromotion: One of the ways of becoming an Alpha werewolf is killing another Alpha. Derek, Peter, and twins Ethan and Aiden have all employed this.
* LeParkour: Since werewolves have superior agility, strength and speed, they are naturally a lot more athletic than the average human. Werewolf acrobatics are a staple of the show, with Derek, Scott, the twins, and now Liam being the main, but far from the only offenders.
* LivingLieDetector: Zigzagged. Thanks to their heightened sense of hearing, werewolves are usually able to distinguish whether someone is being dishonest or not by listening to subtle changes in heartbeats. However, this isn't fool-proof as several antagonists have distorted the truth and even flat out lied to werewolves without them being the wiser.
* MonsterLord: Alphas are this to other werewolves. Aside from being able to out-perform Betas in every way, they can also inflict longer-lasting wounds and even control the shifts of other werecreatures. The most defining trait of an Alpha is that they are the only ones who can create more werewolves through bites and sometimes scratches.
* NeverGetsDrunk: Their rapid healing makes it impossible for werewolves and other were beings to get drunk, as Scott, Liam and Malia all had to learn to their disappointment.
* PubertySuperpower: Appears to be the case with born werewolves, as implied by Dr. Fenris. In flashbacks, we see teenage Derek having problems controlling his abilities and Peter teaching him how to temper himself. According to Peter, Talia did the same for Laura.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: All the Alphas have these, signalling their greater strength and power over Betas and Omegas.
* ShapeShifting: All werewolves can shapeshift to differing degrees; from merely showing fangs, claws and reflective eyes, to a WolfMan to a complete wolfform, which is usually only possible for Alphas, or very balanced Betas. There is also a monster form, which seems to require a certain [[AxCrazy instability]].
* SupernaturalGoldEyes: Beta Werewolves have these in their WolfMan form; it's also a handy way to show they are supernatural, when they don't want to be too conspicuous. A Beta who has killed an innocent has lightblue eyes; an Alpha's eyes are glowing [[RedEyesTakeWarning red]].
* VagueAge: Both born and bitten werewolves seem to age really slowly, to the point where you can usually only guess how old they might be. A prime example is Satomi who should be at least 130 years old and still looks like she could be in her sixties. Born werewolves might be even more complex, as Peter looked like he was in his late teens/early twenties for quite a long time, before turning into his current incarnation, who is seemingly in his late 30s. Lampshaded by Stiles, in talking to Peter:
-->'''Stiles''': Wait, how old ''are'' you?
* WolfMan: During transformation, this form is usually taken on by Betas and Omegas, as well as some Alphas such as Scott.

!The Hale Family
The Hales were a family of werewolves who saw themselves as the unofficial "protectors" of Beacon Hills. After most of them died in a fire six years prior to the series, their remaining members are siblings Derek, Laura, and Cora Hale, and their uncle Peter. [[spoiler:In Season 3, Malia Tate is revealed to be the [[LongLostRelative biological daughter of Peter that no one knew about]].]]
!!Laura Hale (portrayed by Haley Roe Murphy)
Laura is Derek's older sister, and initially the only member of his family known to not be in the Hale Fire. Her death and dismemberment kick off the events of the series.
----
* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: Cut in half by her murderer.

[[quoteright:236:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tumblr_m6hzmdTrfW1rzbosjo2_250_2508.png]]
->"''I was gonna wait for dramatic flare, but when you look this good, why wait?''"
Derek's uncle, the man responsible for biting Scott to begin with, and the original Alpha and BigBad of season one. Peter is the one responsible for killing Derek's sister, Laura, in order to become the new Alpha wolf of the Hale family. Originally faking disability, he later torments Scott, Derek, the Argents, and everyone else involved, until he is finally killed by Derek.
----
* AndIMustScream: He was aware, if not sane, for the six years it took him to heal from the fire. He also had some degree of awareness while [[spoiler: he was "dead"]].
* AntiVillain: Ultimately subverted, though he does seem to have hints of sympathy for Derek, Cora, Stiles, and Lydia.
* AxCrazy: He's murderously unstable mostly during his time as the Beacon Hills Alpha, but even later [[spoiler:his ranting about being the Alpha]], [[spoiler:the way he viciously murders the Mute]], and [[spoiler:his eventually revealed plans to murder Scott]] don't exactly make him seem mentally healthy.
* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler: Manipulates Lydia from beyond the grave into orchestrating a ritual that returns life to his dead body.]]
* BigBad: Peter was the Alpha werewolf who was causing trouble and killing everyone in his path. He also killed Derek's sister, Laura, bit Scott and turned him into a werewolf, brainwashed and controlled Scott in the earlier days of his transformation, and wanted Scott to kill all of his friends through his control.
* BigBrotherInstinct: As a young adult he was ''very'' protective of Derek. Potentially subverted, since it appears he's usually the one who got Derek purposefully into trouble in the first place.
* BodyBackupDrive: [[spoiler:Implanted an imprint of himself in Lydia, just in case he died and needed someone to resurrect him.]]
* CoolUncle: There are some very subtle hints that he used to be this before the death of his family and him becoming the EvilUncle seen proper in the series.
* DeadpanSnarker: Peter has perfected the sarcastic remark to an art form, and uses it at every possible moment to mock those around him.
--> '''Peter:'''It's quite a situation you've got yourself in here, Derek. I mean, I'm out of commission for a few weeks and suddenly there's lizard people, geriatric psychopaths, and you're cooking up werewolves out of every self-esteem deprived adolescent in town.
* EnemyMine: He proves very helpful and willing to play for Team Good after [[spoiler: coming back to life]], handling [[spoiler: Gerard and the threat of the Kanima]] with minimal loss of life.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: ''Inverted''. He knows about a hero's tendencies, he knows about the bonds of true friends, he knows the strength of sheer love. And he uses all that to control the situation and the people in it.
* EvilFormerFriend: Was Derek's best friend when the latter was in high school before, you know, killing Derek's sister and becoming one of the first season's antagonists.
* EvilMentor: When they were younger, he had a habit of talking Derek into things that really backfired badly. [[spoiler:such as convincing him that his human girlfriend would leave him if he didn't convince someone to turn her into a werewolf.]]
* EvilUncle: Peter is uncle to Derek, Laura, and Cora. This doesn't stop him from killing Laura in order to become an Alpha.
* ExpositionBeam: By digging his claws into the back of someone's neck, he can grant them his memories. He shows Scott the painful memories of the fire and his long, excruciating recovery.
* FauxAffablyEvil: In contrast to his rude, good nephew, Peter is charming and quite pleasant, but entirely able to have a nice chat with you one minute and ram a pole into your torso the next.
* {{Gaslighting}}: Purposefully weakens Lydia psychologically so that [[spoiler: she can bring him back from the dead]].
* HandsomeLech: He states in front of everybody that he thinks Scott's mom is gorgeous. Cue Scott looking disgusted and everybody else telling Peter to shut up.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: Goes from BigBad to brainwashing Lydia into resurrecting him to actually being rather helpful to Derek and the others. [[spoiler:Inverted, since he actually stays evil and is just biding his time to strike.]]
* HiddenVillain: In a unique way. [[spoiler:He's technically TheManBehindTheMan to Meredith's Benefactor, since he convinced her the supernatural population of Beacon Hills needed a cull. However, he did this through accidentally projecting his insane inner rantings into her poor, instable psychic's mind, while both of them were recuperating in a hospital, and he was lying in a coma.]]
* LargeHam: Both actor and character love chewing the scenery on occasion, especially when it comes to clarifying Peter's status:
--> I AM the Alpha! I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THE ALPHA!!!
* LightningBruiser: He generally avoids physical conflicts, but when he does fight, he proves to be a suprisingly capable foe.
* ManipulativeBastard: Peter is the epitome of scheming, cunning, manipulative and sadistic. He will use people and brainwash people in order to get others to do what he wants. For most of the first season, Peter had brainwashed Scott and controlled him in order to get Scott to kill all of his friends. Not to mention that he has threatened Stiles, Lydia, Derek and Scott's mother Melissa in order to scare Scott into joining him and Derek so that they could be a pack. For Peter, being in a pack is all about power, dominance and control.
* NotSoDifferent: His standard defense when someone brings up his many crimes is pointing out that others have also done extremely bad things for often worse reasons:
-->'''Peter:'''''[to Derek]'': "You're the one that ripped ''my'' throat open".
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: He's more than little unhinged by the slaughter of his family.
* ThrowingOffTheDisability: After the fire, he was left burned and comatose for six years while his cells ''slowly'' healed him. Pretends to be an unresponsive patient for a while as a coverup to his more sinister actions.
* TokenEvilTeamMate: He may be on Team Good after [[spoiler:his resurrection]], but no one trusts him and no one doubts for a second that the man who killed his own niece for power is hiding under Helpful Uncle Peter. [[spoiler:Turns out they are right at the end of Season 4.]]
!!Cora Hale (portrayed by Adelaide Kane)
[[quoteright:280:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cora-22_116.jpg]]
->''"You're just a bunch of stupid teenagers running around, thinking you can stop people from getting killed. But, all you do is show up late. All you really do is find the bodies."''
A young female werewolf first introduced in season 3 as one of the wolves kidnapped by the Alpha Pack along with Erica and Boyd. She's also Derek's younger sister, who had been presumed to have died in the fire.
----
* ActionGirl: Her limited screentime still makes it clear that she is a very capable fighter.
* {{Badass}}: She can hold her own against Alphas, so she qualifies for this.
* DeadpanSnarker: Seems to be a trademark of her family.
* {{Determinator}}: Even after the alpha pack kidnapped her and locked her in a bank vault for months, she still kept trying to make herself strong enough to fight them, to the point of doing intense physical training before she'd recovered from the ordeal and attacking Ennis when he, Kali, and Deucalion broke into Derek's loft.
* DistaffCounterpart: She is pretty much a younger, less broody Derek in a girl's body.
* FlatCharacter: Between finishing out another character's plot and Adelaide Kane leaving the show to become MaryQueenOfScots on Series/{{Reign}}, she sadly doesn't receive much character development.
* MoralityPet: One of Derek’s.
* MysteriousPast: We don't know what happened to her after she escaped the fire, other than that she lived in South America.
* PutOnABus: She returns to South America after the events of Season 3A.
* SnarkToSnarkCombat: She has to tendency to do this with Stiles, much like her brother.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: To Erica: she inherited parts of her storyline, after Gage Golighty left the show between seasons.
!!Talia Hale (portrayed by Alicia Coppola)
Talia is the mother of Derek, Cora, and Laura, and the older sister of Peter. The well-respected Alpha of the Hale pack, she was killed in the Hale Fire, though her claws remain an important MacGuffin.
----
* {{Animorphism}}: Notable for being one of very few wolves to avert WolfMan and shift into an ''actual'' wolf, an ability which made her a powerful leader in the werewolf community.
* BigGood: Before her death, all of the nearby werewolf packs respected her wisdom and followed her lead.
* DeathByOriginStory: Talia's death in the Hale Fire, for which Derek is indirectly responsible, set him on the path that he still follows.
* PosthumousCharacter: Talia only appears in flashbacks or in visions induced with her claws.
!The Alpha Pack
The pack of Alphas who appeared at the end of Season 2 and became major antagonists in Season 3A.
!!Deucalion (portrayed by Creator/GideonEmery)
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bf27fe89e816380767e956922fabcda4.jpg]]
-->"''I am the Alpha of Alphas. I am the apex of apex predators. I am Death, Destroyer of Worlds! [[ChewingTheScenery I AM THE DEMON WOLF!!!]]''"
The mysterious blind leader of the Alpha pack.
----
* BigBad: He's the one in charge of the pack.
* ChewingTheScenery: To the point where he cracks the lenses of his sunglasses with his eyes during a speech.
* EyeScream: Had his eyes gouged out by Gerard, who jammed two flashbang arrows into them.
* FaceHeelTurn: In "Visionary", Deucalion appeared to be a level-headed, decent guy before Gerard Argent jammed a couple of flashbang arrows into his eyes, blinding him. Now that his sight has been restored by Jennifer/the Darach--and his life was spared by Scott and Derek--it's unclear whether he'll have a HeelFaceTurn.
* HandicappedBadass: He’s functionally blind, and is still able to beat down Scott and Derek.
* LargeHam: Watch him tell the world what an evil demon wolf he is, and still try to take him seriously afterwards.
* ManipulativeBastard: He killed Ennis to gain more power after the latter was expected to survive his fight with Derek, and didn’t tell Kali, Aiden, or Ethan about this. Naturally, the trio is now out for Derek’s blood.
* OffingTheOffspring: In a sense, given that he began advocating the murder of betas after killing one of his own when said beta tried to [[TheStarscream take the newly blind Deucalion out thinking he’d have an advantage]], thus increasing his power.
* SinisterShades: Justified: he's blind - to a point.
* SoftSpokenSadist: Deucalion, head of the Alpha pack, speaks with a calm and soft cadence most of the time. The above quote is the exception.
* StartOfDarkness: Deucalion used to want peace and an end to senseless killing before Gerard murdered several members of his pack unprovoked and blinded him. He was pushed further along, when one of his remaining betas tried to kill him, thinking he was helpless.
* SwordCane: His white cane has a dagger hidden within it for when he needs to discipline his fellow Alphas.
* TeamKiller: Apparently, the only way to join the Alpha pack is to slaughter all of your own betas and gain their power.
!!Kali (portrayed by Felisha Terrell)
[[quoteright:280:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kali-22_605.jpg]]
-->"''This'' '''is''' ''me being gentle.''"
Graceful and deadly, Kali stands as Deucalion's right hand within the Alpha Pack.
----
* CharacterDeath: Gets killed by the Darach for mutilating and leaving her for dead when she was still Kali's emissary.
* DarkActionGirl: Action enough to take down Derek and impale him with one of his own pipes, Dark enough to ''really'' enjoy it.
* DoesNotLikeShoes: Has never been seen wearing footwear that would restrict her gnarly knife toes, even when disguised as a nurse.
* TheDragon: Kali is the only member of the Alpha pack shown to move even marginally contrary to Deucalion (i.e. telling him to hurry up with the speech) without being disciplined, implying a degree of authority typical of a second-in-command.
* FauxAffablyEvil: While pretending to be a nurse and sedating Isaac, Kali reveals that she's an Alpha during the equally unnecessary "count with me" sequence just as he passes out apparently purely to antagonize and agitate him.
* FemmeFatalons: Inverted. While Kali does have the standard issue werewolf fingernails, she makes combative use primarily of the nails on her feet.
* KickChick: Kali prioritizes attacks with her feet to make use of her razor sharp toenails.
* TermsOfEndangerment: Refers to Cora as "little sister" in a deeply unsettling manner.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: She's the only female alpha of the pack.
!!Ennis (portrayed by Brian Patrick Wade)
[[quoteright:223:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ennis_4095.png]]
-->"''I'm an '''Alpha'''.''"
Ennis is the first of the Alpha Pack Scott runs into and sets the tone for the Alpha Pack's behaviour pretty succinctly: brutal and good at it.
----
* TheBrute: Purely muscle, primarily tasked with hitting things and not possessing Kali's level of clout with Deucalion.
* CharacterDeath: Deucalion takes him out to gain more power for himself.
* FlatCharacter: His main characteristics are brutality and a short temper.
* ItsPersonal: He tried to turn Derek's first love Paige in the most traumatic way possible. To make things worse, she didn’t take the bite and died, prompting Derek’s change from an goofy teenager into a brooding adult. Derek takes a particular dislike against him as a result.
* {{Jerkass}}: He’s been nothing but a pompous ass ever since his introduction.
* SmugSuper: Lords his status over Scott before getting out-Alpha'd by Derek.

->"''Ethan, I always forget.. How many bones are there in the human body?''"
->"''I don't know, let's '''count'''.''"
The twins, Ethan and Aiden, are first introduced chasing down Isaac like hounds after a fox, but quickly make a splash by enrolling at Beacon Hills High and setting their sights on Lydia and Danny in order to get to Scott.
----
* ArchEnemy: The twins collectively become this to Isaac. Throughout their time in the Alpha pack, both of the twins have antagonized, injured and even helped kill some of the people Isaac felt closest to, not to mention causing him personal physical and psychological harm. Even after their HeelFaceTurn, Isaac refuses to forgive either of them and vetoes them from joining Scott's pack. [[spoiler: While under the Nogitsune's influence, it almost leads to them being murdered by him.]]
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Before they joined Deucalion, Aiden and Ethan were the omegas of their old pack, and thus treated quite badly. TurnedUpToEleven, both because as born werewolves, their pack members were likely their family - and to join the Alpha pack, [[SelfMadeOrphan they had to murder them]].
* FusionDance: Aiden and Ethan can do this, melding together (somehow) to form a burly gigantic monster.
* GoSeduceMyArchnemesis: Their mission is to seduce Lydia and Danny in order to sabotage Scott. Given that Lydia figures out they are Alphas quite quickly, things ''may'' not go exactly according to plan.
* HeelFaceDoorSlam: They attempt to join Scott's pack, and he won't have them for their past misdeeds, although he's more willing to forgive Ethan than Aiden.
* HeroicSacrifice: Aiden dies fighting the Oni.
* LoveRedeems: While Ethan actually may have had moral objections to being evil, Aiden wants to be a better man for Lydia.
* MagicPants: Aiden and Ethan when they do their FusionDance to merge into the "Super-Alpha". The trope is played especially straight in that for some reason they [[{{Fanservice}} remove their jackets and bare their torsos]] before merging, but their pants (and shoes) merge when their bodies do.
* MrFanservice: No, no, you don't understand, they have to take off their shirts to merge into a great, big Alpha. Which they really do a lot.
* MoralityPet: Danny is one for Ethan: When Danny’s around, Ethan is less antagonistic to Scott and his group, and is even helpful at times. Later, Lydia also proves to be one for Aiden, whose HeelFaceTurn begins when she tells him she considers him a bad guy [[spoiler:because he helped kill Boyd]] and she doesn't want to be with bad guys.
* NewTransferStudent: Like most supernatural creatures who just up and enroll in a public school, it is unclear as to who exactly Aiden and Ethan's purported parent/guardian is. Deucalion is only barely of an age where he could pass as their father. The twins just show up on the first day of the school year and make their presence known.
* SiblingYinYang: They work in tandem, but Ethan and Aiden are different in personality, with Ethan being more gentle and Aiden being more violent.
* StraightGay: When the twins first show up, Lydia declares she "wants one" of them, clarifying "the straight one obviously." at Allison's query. It's the most overt hint we get at Ethan's orientation before he starts romancing Danny.
* {{Synchronization}}: Aside from the above-mentioned ability to combine forms, Aiden and Ethan can feel the other's pain from a distance. This shows up twice: first when Aiden is being attacked by Cora and Ethan clutches his chest knowing that his brother is in a fight. The second and final time we see this is when [[spoiler: while Aiden is dying.]]
--> '''Aiden''': Does this hurt you as much as it hurts me?
--> '''Ethan''':(tearfully) Yes.
* RedOniBlueOni: Aiden (Red) is much more fiery, aggressive, and prone to violence, while Ethan (Blue) is more passive and friendly.
* TeensAreMonsters: At least part of their Beacon Hills High goal is antagonizing Isaac into hurting someone through means like [[PokeThePoodle giving him detention]] and [[KickTheDog exploiting his claustrophobia by trapping him in a closet with Allison]].
* WoundedGazelleGambit: The Twins draw Isaac out into the hallway, do a showdown at high noon style stand-off, and start throwing punches... at each other. Then, when the teacher and other students are ''just'' about to appear, one twin throws the other at Isaac's feet and vanishes, making him like the aggressor who doesn't have a scratch on him.
!Satomi's Pack
Satomi's pack seems to consist mainly of non-combatant werewolves, who want nothing but live a relatively normal, quiet life without being bothered by anyone.
!!Satomi Ito (portrayed by Lily Mariye)
->''"Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, the truth."''
A beta werewolf and Noshiko's fellow prisoner in Oak Creek when we first meet her. Between World War II and the present day she became an Alpha, and was a friend to Talia Hale.
----
* BadassGrandma: She is the oldest werewolf seen, but greets Deaton with a playful sparring and takes out professional assassins with ease.
* CulturedBadass: Taught herself to control her werewolf powers through playing Go.
* FireForgedFriends: With Noshiko, due to battling the nogitsune in the 1940s.
* TheObiWan: To her pack, whom she teaches self-control through a Buddhist mantra, and to Derek, as well as somewhat to young Noshiko Yukimura back in the day.
* WarriorPoet: Her Buddhist beliefs and philosophical outlook helped her master werewolf rage and develop techniques to avoid discovery.
!!Brett Talbot (portrayed by Cody Saintgnue)
A young beta in Satomi's pack and rival Lacrosse player from Liam's former school. He does not like Liam overly much.
----
* BigBrotherInstinct: Protects the younger werewolf girl Lori from hunters, to the point where he puts himself physically between her and their arrows.
* IOweYouMyLife: Brett helps Liam during the lacrosse game because Scott saved his life and Liam is Scott's beta.
* JerkJock: He is this mostly to Liam, but in general he behaves quite cocky and arrogant on an around the field. However -
** JerkWithAHeartOfGold: After being saved from assassins by Scott and Stiles, he starts respecting Scott and his pack, even offering Liam advice when he has trouble adjusting.
* MeaningfulName[=/=]StealthPun: His last name, Talbot, is a reference to Lawrence Talbot, the original [[TheWolfman Wolfman]]. Brett, of course, is a werewolf.
* MrFanservice: changes shirts on his first appearance, to the approval of Mason and the audience.
* TheRival: to Liam, in general, and relating to Lacrosse in particular.

[[folder:General Werewolf Tropes]]
!!General Werewolf Tropes
* AbsurdlySharpBlade: Werewolf claws are closer to knives than to animal claws or human fingernails.
* AudibleSharpness: Werewolf claws also have their own sound effect when extended.
* TheBerserker: All new werewolves are like this initially, especially during the full moon. It does lessen later on, either through experience, by holding onto an "anchor" - usually a feeling or a person - or by reciting a mantra until the rage passes.
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Played with. Werewolves are in some ways quite different from humans: they live in packs with specific hierarchies and structures, they spend part of their lives as a human-monster hybrid or a full animal, and their physical abilities and health are way beyond those of average humans. As a consequence, a lot of their interactions come off as very rough and overly violent to humans and bitten werewolves unfamiliar with werewolf norms. Is made a point of characterization for several characters, especially Derek.
* TheChosenOne: Becoming an Alpha usually works in two ways: inheriting an Alpha's power when they die, and [[KlingonPromotion plain murder]]. However, there is also a third, extremely rare option: turning into an Alpha purely by power of character. This is called a True Alpha, and [[{{Protagonist}} unsurprisingly]], Scott [=McCall=] is one.
* CurseThatCures: One of the perks of getting transformed into a werewolf is the healing factor taking care of injuries and diseases: Scott loses his asthma, Erica no longer experiences seizures, and Liam heals a broken leg. This seems to work for physical ailments only.
* TheEmpath: Played with in an interesting way. Werewolves are by no means psychic, but can sense emotions such as anger, arousal and even disgust. Derek reveals that this is due to their sense of smell; by picking up on hormonal changes in a body through chemo-signals, a werewolf can tell what state of mind a person is in, even in places where a person has been.
* EvilDetectingDog: As apex predators, werewolves scare regular animals. Both wild animals and pets react either aggressively or fearfully when a werewolf is near, even when they are fully human. In the pilot alone, we see deer stampede away from the Alpha, clinic animals bark and hiss at Scott during his first few days after being bitten, and a dog growling at Derek at a party.
* GoodThingYouCanHeal: With very few exceptions, werewolf characters will have to make use of their healing powers - they'll be attacked by other supernatural beings or hunters, get electrified, shot at, poisoned, set on fire, stabbed, bitten, clawed, and even get their limbs cut off. Beacon Hills is a dangerous place to be a monster.
* HealingFactor: All werewolves heal quite quickly, though various, usually supernatural means - from an Alpha's claws, to demonic swords to various species of wolfsbane/aconite - can make the process more complicated.
* HealingHands: Werewolves can absorb physical pain from other beings, which is used as a plot point and a way to illustrate character motivations several times.
* KlingonPromotion: One of the ways of becoming an Alpha werewolf is killing another Alpha. Derek, Peter, and twins Ethan and Aiden have all employed this.
* LeParkour: Since werewolves have superior agility, strength and speed, they are naturally a lot more athletic than the average human. Werewolf acrobatics are a staple of the show, with Derek, Scott, the twins, and now Liam being the main, but far from the only offenders.
* LivingLieDetector: Zigzagged. Thanks to their heightened sense of hearing, werewolves are usually able to distinguish whether someone is being dishonest or not by listening to subtle changes in heartbeats. However, this isn't fool-proof as several antagonists have distorted the truth and even flat out lied to werewolves without them being the wiser.
* MonsterLord: Alphas are this to other werewolves. Aside from being able to out-perform Betas in every way, they can also inflict longer-lasting wounds and even control the shifts of other werecreatures. The most defining trait of an Alpha is that they are the only ones who can create more werewolves through bites and sometimes scratches.
* NeverGetsDrunk: Their rapid healing makes it impossible for werewolves and other were beings to get drunk, as Scott, Liam and Malia all had to learn to their disappointment.
* PubertySuperpower: Appears to be the case with born werewolves, as implied by Dr. Fenris. In flashbacks, we see teenage Derek having problems controlling his abilities and Peter teaching him how to temper himself. According to Peter, Talia did the same for Laura.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: All the Alphas have these, signalling their greater strength and power over Betas and Omegas.
* ShapeShifting: All werewolves can shapeshift to differing degrees; from merely showing fangs, claws and reflective eyes, to a WolfMan to a complete wolfform, which is usually only possible for Alphas, or very balanced Betas. There is also a monster form, which seems to require a certain [[AxCrazy instability]].
* SupernaturalGoldEyes: Beta Werewolves have these in their WolfMan form; it's also a handy way to show they are supernatural, when they don't want to be too conspicuous. A Beta who has killed an innocent has lightblue eyes; an Alpha's eyes are glowing [[RedEyesTakeWarning red]].
* VagueAge: Both born and bitten werewolves seem to age really slowly, to the point where you can usually only guess how old they might be. A prime example is Satomi who should be at least 130 years old and still looks like she could be in her sixties. Born werewolves might be even more complex, as Peter looked like he was in his late teens/early twenties for quite a long time, before turning into his current incarnation, who is seemingly in his late 30s. Lampshaded by Stiles, in talking to Peter:
-->'''Stiles''': Wait, how old ''are'' you?
* WolfMan: During transformation, this form is usually taken on by Betas and Omegas, as well as some Alphas such as Scott.

[[folder: Werewolves]]
!The Hale Family
The Hales were a family of werewolves who saw themselves as the unofficial "protectors" of Beacon Hills. After most of them died in a fire six years prior to the series, their remaining members are siblings Derek, Laura, and Cora Hale, and their uncle Peter. [[spoiler:In Season 3, Malia Tate is revealed to be the [[LongLostRelative biological daughter of Peter that no one knew about]].]]
!!Laura Hale (portrayed by Haley Roe Murphy)
Laura is Derek's older sister, and initially the only member of his family known to not be in the Hale Fire. Her death and dismemberment kick off the events of the series.
----
* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: Cut in half by her murderer.
* PlotTriggeringDeath: Laura's death and bisection provide the incentive Scott and Stiles need to get into the forest where Scott is bitten, kicking off his entire arc.
!!Peter Hale (portrayed by Ian Bohen & Michael Fjordbak)
[[quoteright:236:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tumblr_m6hzmdTrfW1rzbosjo2_250_2508.png]]
->"''I was gonna wait for dramatic flare, but when you look this good, why wait?''"
Derek's uncle, the man responsible for biting Scott to begin with, and the original Alpha and BigBad of season one. Peter is the one responsible for killing Derek's sister, Laura, in order to become the new Alpha wolf of the Hale family. Originally faking disability, he later torments Scott, Derek, the Argents, and everyone else involved, until he is finally killed by Derek.
----
* AndIMustScream: He was aware, if not sane, for the six years it took him to heal from the fire. He also had some degree of awareness while [[spoiler: he was "dead"]].
* AntiVillain: Ultimately subverted, though he does seem to have hints of sympathy for Derek, Cora, Stiles, and Lydia.
* AxCrazy: He's murderously unstable mostly during his time as the Beacon Hills Alpha, but even later [[spoiler:his ranting about being the Alpha]], [[spoiler:the way he viciously murders the Mute]], and [[spoiler:his eventually revealed plans to murder Scott]] don't exactly make him seem mentally healthy.
* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler: Manipulates Lydia from beyond the grave into orchestrating a ritual that returns life to his dead body.]]
* BigBad: Peter was the Alpha werewolf who was causing trouble and killing everyone in his path. He also killed Derek's sister, Laura, bit Scott and turned him into a werewolf, brainwashed and controlled Scott in the earlier days of his transformation, and wanted Scott to kill all of his friends through his control.
* BigBrotherInstinct: As a young adult he was ''very'' protective of Derek. Potentially subverted, since it appears he's usually the one who got Derek purposefully into trouble in the first place.
* BodyBackupDrive: [[spoiler:Implanted an imprint of himself in Lydia, just in case he died and needed someone to resurrect him.]]
* CoolUncle: There are some very subtle hints that he used to be this before the death of his family and him becoming the EvilUncle seen proper in the series.
* DeadpanSnarker: Peter has perfected the sarcastic remark to an art form, and uses it at every possible moment to mock those around him.
--> '''Peter:'''It's quite a situation you've got yourself in here, Derek. I mean, I'm out of commission for a few weeks and suddenly there's lizard people, geriatric psychopaths, and you're cooking up werewolves out of every self-esteem deprived adolescent in town.
* EnemyMine: He proves very helpful and willing to play for Team Good after [[spoiler: coming back to life]], handling [[spoiler: Gerard and the threat of the Kanima]] with minimal loss of life.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: ''Inverted''. He knows about a hero's tendencies, he knows about the bonds of true friends, he knows the strength of sheer love. And he uses all that to control the situation and the people in it.
* EvilFormerFriend: Was Derek's best friend when the latter was in high school before, you know, killing Derek's sister and becoming one of the first season's antagonists.
* EvilMentor: When they were younger, he had a habit of talking Derek into things that really backfired badly. [[spoiler:such as convincing him that his human girlfriend would leave him if he didn't convince someone to turn her into a werewolf.]]
* EvilUncle: Peter is uncle to Derek, Laura, and Cora. This doesn't stop him from killing Laura in order to become an Alpha.
* ExpositionBeam: By digging his claws into the back of someone's neck, he can grant them his memories. He shows Scott the painful memories of the fire and his long, excruciating recovery.
* FauxAffablyEvil: In contrast to his rude, good nephew, Peter is charming and quite pleasant, but entirely able to have a nice chat with you one minute and ram a pole into your torso the next.
* {{Gaslighting}}: Purposefully weakens Lydia psychologically so that [[spoiler: she can bring him back from the dead]].
* HandsomeLech: He states in front of everybody that he thinks Scott's mom is gorgeous. Cue Scott looking disgusted and everybody else telling Peter to shut up.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: Goes from BigBad to brainwashing Lydia into resurrecting him to actually being rather helpful to Derek and the others. [[spoiler:Inverted, since he actually stays evil and is just biding his time to strike.]]
* HiddenVillain: In a unique way. [[spoiler:He's technically TheManBehindTheMan to Meredith's Benefactor, since he convinced her the supernatural population of Beacon Hills needed a cull. However, he did this through accidentally projecting his insane inner rantings into her poor, instable psychic's mind, while both of them were recuperating in a hospital, and he was lying in a coma.]]
* LargeHam: Both actor and character love chewing the scenery on occasion, especially when it comes to clarifying Peter's status:
--> I AM the Alpha! I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THE ALPHA!!!
* LightningBruiser: He generally avoids physical conflicts, but when he does fight, he proves to be a suprisingly capable foe.
* ManipulativeBastard: Peter is the epitome of scheming, cunning, manipulative and sadistic. He will use people and brainwash people in order to get others to do what he wants. For most of the first season, Peter had brainwashed Scott and controlled him in order to get Scott to kill all of his friends. Not to mention that he has threatened Stiles, Lydia, Derek and Scott's mother Melissa in order to scare Scott into joining him and Derek so that they could be a pack. For Peter, being in a pack is all about power, dominance and control.
* NotSoDifferent: His standard defense when someone brings up his many crimes is pointing out that others have also done extremely bad things for often worse reasons:
-->'''Peter:'''''[to Derek]'': "You're the one that ripped ''my'' throat open".
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: He's more than little unhinged by the slaughter of his family.
* ThrowingOffTheDisability: After the fire, he was left burned and comatose for six years while his cells ''slowly'' healed him. Pretends to be an unresponsive patient for a while as a coverup to his more sinister actions.
* TokenEvilTeamMate: He may be on Team Good after [[spoiler:his resurrection]], but no one trusts him and no one doubts for a second that the man who killed his own niece for power is hiding under Helpful Uncle Peter. [[spoiler:Turns out they are right at the end of Season 4.]]
!!Cora Hale (portrayed by Adelaide Kane)
[[quoteright:280:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cora-22_116.jpg]]
->''"You're just a bunch of stupid teenagers running around, thinking you can stop people from getting killed. But, all you do is show up late. All you really do is find the bodies."''
A young female werewolf first introduced in season 3 as one of the wolves kidnapped by the Alpha Pack along with Erica and Boyd. She's also Derek's younger sister, who had been presumed to have died in the fire.
----
* ActionGirl: Her limited screentime still makes it clear that she is a very capable fighter.
* {{Badass}}: She can hold her own against Alphas, so she qualifies for this.
* DeadpanSnarker: Seems to be a trademark of her family.
* {{Determinator}}: Even after the alpha pack kidnapped her and locked her in a bank vault for months, she still kept trying to make herself strong enough to fight them, to the point of doing intense physical training before she'd recovered from the ordeal and attacking Ennis when he, Kali, and Deucalion broke into Derek's loft.
* DistaffCounterpart: She is pretty much a younger, less broody Derek in a girl's body.
* FlatCharacter: Between finishing out another character's plot and Adelaide Kane leaving the show to become MaryQueenOfScots on Series/{{Reign}}, she sadly doesn't receive much character development.
* MoralityPet: One of Derek’s.
* MysteriousPast: We don't know what happened to her after she escaped the fire, other than that she lived in South America.
* PutOnABus: She returns to South America after the events of Season 3A.
* SnarkToSnarkCombat: She has to tendency to do this with Stiles, much like her brother.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: To Erica: she inherited parts of her storyline, after Gage Golighty left the show between seasons.
!!Talia Hale (portrayed by Alicia Coppola)
Talia is the mother of Derek, Cora, and Laura, and the older sister of Peter. The well-respected Alpha of the Hale pack, she was killed in the Hale Fire, though her claws remain an important MacGuffin.
----
* {{Animorphism}}: Notable for being one of very few wolves to avert WolfMan and shift into an ''actual'' wolf, an ability which made her a powerful leader in the werewolf community.
* BigGood: Before her death, all of the nearby werewolf packs respected her wisdom and followed her lead.
* DeathByOriginStory: Talia's death in the Hale Fire, for which Derek is indirectly responsible, set him on the path that he still follows.
* PosthumousCharacter: Talia only appears in flashbacks or in visions induced with her claws.
!The Alpha Pack
The pack of Alphas who appeared at the end of Season 2 and became major antagonists in Season 3A.
!!Deucalion (portrayed by Creator/GideonEmery)
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bf27fe89e816380767e956922fabcda4.jpg]]
-->"''I am the Alpha of Alphas. I am the apex of apex predators. I am Death, Destroyer of Worlds! [[ChewingTheScenery I AM THE DEMON WOLF!!!]]''"
The mysterious blind leader of the Alpha pack.
----
* BigBad: He's the one in charge of the pack.
* ChewingTheScenery: To the point where he cracks the lenses of his sunglasses with his eyes during a speech.
* EyeScream: Had his eyes gouged out by Gerard, who jammed two flashbang arrows into them.
* FaceHeelTurn: In "Visionary", Deucalion appeared to be a level-headed, decent guy before Gerard Argent jammed a couple of flashbang arrows into his eyes, blinding him. Now that his sight has been restored by Jennifer/the Darach--and his life was spared by Scott and Derek--it's unclear whether he'll have a HeelFaceTurn.
* HandicappedBadass: He’s functionally blind, and is still able to beat down Scott and Derek.
* LargeHam: Watch him tell the world what an evil demon wolf he is, and still try to take him seriously afterwards.
* ManipulativeBastard: He killed Ennis to gain more power after the latter was expected to survive his fight with Derek, and didn’t tell Kali, Aiden, or Ethan about this. Naturally, the trio is now out for Derek’s blood.
* OffingTheOffspring: In a sense, given that he began advocating the murder of betas after killing one of his own when said beta tried to [[TheStarscream take the newly blind Deucalion out thinking he’d have an advantage]], thus increasing his power.
* SinisterShades: Justified: he's blind - to a point.
* SoftSpokenSadist: Deucalion, head of the Alpha pack, speaks with a calm and soft cadence most of the time. The above quote is the exception.
* StartOfDarkness: Deucalion used to want peace and an end to senseless killing before Gerard murdered several members of his pack unprovoked and blinded him. He was pushed further along, when one of his remaining betas tried to kill him, thinking he was helpless.
* SwordCane: His white cane has a dagger hidden within it for when he needs to discipline his fellow Alphas.
* TeamKiller: Apparently, the only way to join the Alpha pack is to slaughter all of your own betas and gain their power.
!!Kali (portrayed by Felisha Terrell)
[[quoteright:280:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kali-22_605.jpg]]
-->"''This'' '''is''' ''me being gentle.''"
Graceful and deadly, Kali stands as Deucalion's right hand within the Alpha Pack.
----
* CharacterDeath: Gets killed by the Darach for mutilating and leaving her for dead when she was still Kali's emissary.
* DarkActionGirl: Action enough to take down Derek and impale him with one of his own pipes, Dark enough to ''really'' enjoy it.
* DoesNotLikeShoes: Has never been seen wearing footwear that would restrict her gnarly knife toes, even when disguised as a nurse.
* TheDragon: Kali is the only member of the Alpha pack shown to move even marginally contrary to Deucalion (i.e. telling him to hurry up with the speech) without being disciplined, implying a degree of authority typical of a second-in-command.
* FauxAffablyEvil: While pretending to be a nurse and sedating Isaac, Kali reveals that she's an Alpha during the equally unnecessary "count with me" sequence just as he passes out apparently purely to antagonize and agitate him.
* FemmeFatalons: Inverted. While Kali does have the standard issue werewolf fingernails, she makes combative use primarily of the nails on her feet.
* KickChick: Kali prioritizes attacks with her feet to make use of her razor sharp toenails.
* TermsOfEndangerment: Refers to Cora as "little sister" in a deeply unsettling manner.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: She's the only female alpha of the pack.
!!Ennis (portrayed by Brian Patrick Wade)
[[quoteright:223:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ennis_4095.png]]
-->"''I'm an '''Alpha'''.''"
Ennis is the first of the Alpha Pack Scott runs into and sets the tone for the Alpha Pack's behaviour pretty succinctly: brutal and good at it.
----
* TheBrute: Purely muscle, primarily tasked with hitting things and not possessing Kali's level of clout with Deucalion.
* CharacterDeath: Deucalion takes him out to gain more power for himself.
* FlatCharacter: His main characteristics are brutality and a short temper.
* ItsPersonal: He tried to turn Derek's first love Paige in the most traumatic way possible. To make things worse, she didn’t take the bite and died, prompting Derek’s change from an goofy teenager into a brooding adult. Derek takes a particular dislike against him as a result.
* {{Jerkass}}: He’s been nothing but a pompous ass ever since his introduction.
* SmugSuper: Lords his status over Scott before getting out-Alpha'd by Derek.
!!Aiden and Ethan (portrayed by Max and Charlie Carver)
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/f163dc40c40f140d733a55ca78b73f62.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:Left: Aiden; Right: Ethan]]
->"''Ethan, I always forget.. How many bones are there in the human body?''"
->"''I don't know, let's '''count'''.''"
The twins, Ethan and Aiden, are first introduced chasing down Isaac like hounds after a fox, but quickly make a splash by enrolling at Beacon Hills High and setting their sights on Lydia and Danny in order to get to Scott.
----
* ArchEnemy: The twins collectively become this to Isaac. Throughout their time in the Alpha pack, both of the twins have antagonized, injured and even helped kill some of the people Isaac felt closest to, not to mention causing him personal physical and psychological harm. Even after their HeelFaceTurn, Isaac refuses to forgive either of them and vetoes them from joining Scott's pack. [[spoiler: While under the Nogitsune's influence, it almost leads to them being murdered by him.]]
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Before they joined Deucalion, Aiden and Ethan were the omegas of their old pack, and thus treated quite badly. TurnedUpToEleven, both because as born werewolves, their pack members were likely their family - and to join the Alpha pack, [[SelfMadeOrphan they had to murder them]].
* FusionDance: Aiden and Ethan can do this, melding together (somehow) to form a burly gigantic monster.
* GoSeduceMyArchnemesis: Their mission is to seduce Lydia and Danny in order to sabotage Scott. Given that Lydia figures out they are Alphas quite quickly, things ''may'' not go exactly according to plan.
* HeelFaceDoorSlam: They attempt to join Scott's pack, and he won't have them for their past misdeeds, although he's more willing to forgive Ethan than Aiden.
* HeroicSacrifice: Aiden dies fighting the Oni.
* LoveRedeems: While Ethan actually may have had moral objections to being evil, Aiden wants to be a better man for Lydia.
* MagicPants: Aiden and Ethan when they do their FusionDance to merge into the "Super-Alpha". The trope is played especially straight in that for some reason they [[{{Fanservice}} remove their jackets and bare their torsos]] before merging, but their pants (and shoes) merge when their bodies do.
* MrFanservice: No, no, you don't understand, they have to take off their shirts to merge into a great, big Alpha. Which they really do a lot.
* MoralityPet: Danny is one for Ethan: When Danny’s around, Ethan is less antagonistic to Scott and his group, and is even helpful at times. Later, Lydia also proves to be one for Aiden, whose HeelFaceTurn begins when she tells him she considers him a bad guy [[spoiler:because he helped kill Boyd]] and she doesn't want to be with bad guys.
* NewTransferStudent: Like most supernatural creatures who just up and enroll in a public school, it is unclear as to who exactly Aiden and Ethan's purported parent/guardian is. Deucalion is only barely of an age where he could pass as their father. The twins just show up on the first day of the school year and make their presence known.
* SiblingYinYang: They work in tandem, but Ethan and Aiden are different in personality, with Ethan being more gentle and Aiden being more violent.
* StraightGay: When the twins first show up, Lydia declares she "wants one" of them, clarifying "the straight one obviously." at Allison's query. It's the most overt hint we get at Ethan's orientation before he starts romancing Danny.
* {{Synchronization}}: Aside from the above-mentioned ability to combine forms, Aiden and Ethan can feel the other's pain from a distance. This shows up twice: first when Aiden is being attacked by Cora and Ethan clutches his chest knowing that his brother is in a fight. The second and final time we see this is when [[spoiler: while Aiden is dying.]]
--> '''Aiden''': Does this hurt you as much as it hurts me?
--> '''Ethan''':(tearfully) Yes.
* RedOniBlueOni: Aiden (Red) is much more fiery, aggressive, and prone to violence, while Ethan (Blue) is more passive and friendly.
* TeensAreMonsters: At least part of their Beacon Hills High goal is antagonizing Isaac into hurting someone through means like [[PokeThePoodle giving him detention]] and [[KickTheDog exploiting his claustrophobia by trapping him in a closet with Allison]].
* WoundedGazelleGambit: The Twins draw Isaac out into the hallway, do a showdown at high noon style stand-off, and start throwing punches... at each other. Then, when the teacher and other students are ''just'' about to appear, one twin throws the other at Isaac's feet and vanishes, making him like the aggressor who doesn't have a scratch on him.
!Satomi's Pack
Satomi's pack seems to consist mainly of non-combatant werewolves, who want nothing but live a relatively normal, quiet life without being bothered by anyone.
!!Satomi Ito (portrayed by Lily Mariye)
->''"Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, the truth."''
