== History ==
=== Background ===
Cora Hale was born in 1994 as the youngest daughter of the werewolf Talia Hale and her unnamed husband. When Cora was eleven years old, Kate Argent and her cohorts set her house on fire. She managed to escape the house, but presumed everyone she loved was dead. Cora left Beacon Hills, unaware that Derek and Laura were at school when it happened and Peter survived but suffered from severe burns. Cora eventually made her way to South America, Where she was taken in by a local pack. 
=== Season 3 ===
In 2011, Cora heard rumors that her brother, Derek was a newly ascended Alpha and was forming a pack of his own. She headed back to her hometown in Beacon Hills for the first time in 6 years. However, four months prior to season 3, Cora was captured by Deucalion and his Alpha Pack and that she was locked in a bank with Erica and Boyd for four months, depriving them of the full moon. She became friends with them during their time in captivity. Unfortunately, Erica was killed by Kali while attempting to escape. She was finally freed by her brother and Scott McCall and in a fit of rage fled the scene in an attempt to destroy everything in her path. Along with Boyd, they are lured to Beacon Hills High School and attack teacher Jennifer Blake. So Derek came to his aid and the two attacked him until they passed out and were exhausted at sunrise. 
Later, Cora is seen training at Derek's loft and she and Derek are attacked by the Alpha Pack. She is held down to the ground by Ennis while Kali impales Derek with a metal bar and Deucalion asks Derek to join his pack. Subsequently, Cora helped Derek, Peter, and Boyd come up with a plan to attack the Alpha Pack, and Cora believes that it only takes killing Deucalion to dissolve the organization. She also expresses her aversion to teenagers, calling Scott a "kid".
They therefore go to an abandoned shopping center where they lead a fight against the pack and are helped by Scott and Isaac. Next, in BBHS, Cora attacked Aiden in the boys' locker room and the latter seriously injures her in the head. Then, she joins Stiles who wants to tell his father the truth about the supernatural events in the city after he learns that the sheriff might be a target of the Darach. At Stiles, he asks Cora to reveal her powers but she passes out. So she is taken to the hospital and Derek stays by her side. Later, Peter was watching Cora in the hospital and he gets a call from Derek and explains that her condition is getting worse. So she was taken out of the hospital to Derek's loft. The latter therefore takes his sister's pain as best he can under Peter's warnings. So he gave her a "spark" of his Alpha power, reviving her. 
After recovering, Cora helps defeat the Darach who turns out to be Jennifer Blake and seeks revenge on the Alpha Pack. Along with Lydia, she takes the Steiner twins to Deaton's clinic after the Darach breaks their status as Alpha werewolves. Eventually, Derek and Peter escorted Cora back to the South American Pack she lived with and did not reappear in the series.
When Derek and Peter were captured by the Calaveras, they initially believed that the hunters were after Cora as they referred to her as "The Bone woman." They refused to give up Cora's location, unaware that the hunters were talking about Kate Argent.
