**Lydia Martin** is the tritagonist-turned-one of the deuteragonists and lead female protagonist of the MTV series *Teen Wolf* and a major character in the 2023 Paramount+ sequel, *Teen Wolf: The Movie*.

She is a banshee whose powers were activated when Peter Hale bit her. She is the daughter of the estranged Mr Martin and Natalie Martin, the wife of Stiles Stilinski, and the daughter-in-law of Noah and Claudia Stilinski, and the granddaughter of Lorraine Martin as well as the best friend of Allison Argent, Scott McCall and Malia Tate, and the ex-girlfriend of Eden Steiner and Jackson Whittemore.

Initially, Lydia was introduced as the most popular girl in school before making bonds with the three main characters. After having a marriage with Stiles, Lydia separated from him after having visions of his death with her in a car accident.

She is a member of the McCall Pack, a former student at Beacon Hills High and the MIT and a worker at the San Francisco's Energy Company.

## Personality

At the start of the show, Lydia is introduced as the mean and shallow popular girl at Beacon Hill High School. However, this is just a front; instead, Lydia is selfless and pure heart, especially after becoming best friends with Scott McCall, Stiles Stilinski, and Allison Argent.

At the end of Season 1, Lydia is bitten by the then Alpha Peter Hale; this bite does not turn her into a werewolf. Instead, it activates her banshee powers, abilities she inherited from her paternal grandmother.

## Abilities

* **Genius Intelligence:** Even from the start of the series, Lydia was considered a child prodigy and genius. Because of her intellect, Lydia was accepted into Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Lydia has an IQ of 170, having knowledge in mathemetics, chemistry, physics, medicine, psychology, history, mythology and foreign languages. She investigates supernatural crimes, due to her academic knowledge and Stiles' understanding of law enforcement.
* **Charisma**
* **Multilingualism:** Lydia is fluent in Latin (both Archaic and Classical), Spanish, and French in at least a conversational capacity.
* **Skilled Artist:** Lydia drew a very detailed picture of the Nemeton's roots she initially mistook for a tree. However they realized this must have been the place where Jennifer was holding the Sheriff Stilinski, Melissa McCall and Chris Argent hostage.
* **Combatant:** Lydia was trained by Jordan Parrish
