Scott McCall

* Human
* Werewolf

**Scott McCall** is the main protagonist of the MTV series,*Teen Wolf* and *Storms and Lost Memories*. He is son of FBI agent Rafael McCall and nurse turned Doctor Melissa McCall. He was a human boy who was turned into a teenage werewolf by Peter Hale and trained to control his transformations by Derek Hale. Scott rose to the status of True Alpha without stealing power. He loses all memories of his best friend, Stiles when he is taken by the Ghost Riders.

Scott McCall is the Alpha of the **McCall Pack**, a former member of the Hale Pack, a member in the McCall and Delgado family, and a former student at **Beacon Hills High School**. He was also the veterinarian assistant to Alan Deaton at the Beacon Hills Animal Clinic and was the captain of the lacrosse team for the **Beacon Hills Cyclones.** He is also an ally of the **Argent Family** and a surrogate family member of the Stilinski Family

## Personality

Scott McCall used to act like a normal teenager:  ambitious and determined but socially awkward. he and Stiles often got into trouble, as shown by Scott’s interest in finding a dead body with his best friend. Without his father around, Scott learned to look out for himself and his mother by taking jobs at the animal clinic to help her pay the bills. With his newfound werewolf abilities, Scott became overconfident, cocky, and arrogant. However, he would often fall into fits of rage, especially on the nights of the full moon. According to Peter Hale, Scott and Derek were a lot alike when the latter was younger. They were both werewolves who wanted to have normal lives after their transformations got worse and lost their first love. He also tends to lurk in the shadows like Derek and makes snark or sarcastic comments, mainly towards his rivals Jackson and Derek Hale.

Over time, Scott's time as a werewolf made him mature, confident, and compassionate. He started to accept his werewolf heritage as a gift and not a curse, resisted the effects of the full moon, and embraced it as if he had been a naturally born werewolf all his life.   Scott became in more control of his transformation after being trained by Derek and using Allison and their relationship acted as his anchors. However, he got even stronger when Melissa told Scott to be his own anchor.  Scott is also a skilled tactician, so much so that Peter Hale, a master manipulator, has stated that the young alpha has a remarkable talent for overcoming any odds. During the long run with Theo Raeken and the Beast of Gevaudan, Scott formulated plans with both Argent and Deucalion, outwitting both Theo and Gerard in the process. He is also very empathetic, as he felt Erica Reyes having a seizure and understands why Chris still wanted to shoot him even though he was no longer dating Allison.

Unlike most Alphas, Scott doesn't seek power like Peter Hale and Deucalion. While he was a Beta, Scott overcame their alpha roar when they forced their wills on him. Because of this, Scott believes that using the Alpha Roar to enforce other people is immoral. He never uses his alpha voice on his Betas or friends unless it is necessary. This trait was demonstrated during Liam's first full moon and later, the supermoon as a werewolf, where Scott refused to assert his authority over Liam and used the bare minimum amount of power to block his blows. He only uses his Alpha Roar, when necessary, as he used it to turn Malia back into a human, and on Eli Hale so he could trigger his abilities.

Another trait that defines Scott is his fear of losing those he loves or cares about. This was born from the guilt he felt surrounding Allison’s death and led to him developing a fear of the Nogitsune and losing Stiles as his best friend. If he loses someone on his watch, Scott will believe that it was all his fault. In "Frayed" and "Motel California," Scott believed Derek died protecting him in battle from Ennis and refused to heal until Allison patched him up. He later feels guilt for trusting Theo and letting the marks that the Chimera left on him remain that way until they find Lydia and bring the pack back together. He also made it his responsibility to save and protect everyone as much as possible, despite others telling Scott that he can’t save everyone.  Both Alan Deaton and Chris Argent told the young werewolf that Scott put too much pressure on himself.

Scott has come to accept his role as the protector of Beacon Hills, as his pack's previous predecessor, the Hales, once did. He watches over innocents, his friends, his family, his pack, and the town. Because of this, individuals like Stiles, Derek, and Chris have regarded him as a protector and someone willing to do whatever it takes to ensure the safety of others. He is fiercely protective of his loved ones, especially his mother, Stiles, and the pack. Lydia often acts as a sisterly figure for Scott and trusts him to save people while Scott believes in her intuition. However, villains like Theo and the Dread Doctors exploit Scott's need to protect others. For example, they were aware of Scott's plan to protect Hayden Romero and Scott’s plan backfired when the Doctors abducted Hayden and Liam. He was forced to view Corey's memories in his plan to capture one of the Dread Doctors.  Because of the burden he carries, Scott learned to rely on his friends who became his pack.

Additionally, Scott could be somewhat naive, short-sighted, and somewhat arrogant. For example, he immediately assumed that Derek was the person who killed Laura Hales and was the one who bit him. This happened again in Season 5 when Scott was dismissive of Stiles' suspicions that Theo Raeken was up to something malicious. According to Stiles, Scott is too trusting of everyone and has realized that people take advantage of it. Theo Raeken used this to his advantage and easily manipulated Scott into thinking Stiles killed Donovan Donati on purpose. His faith in other people is strong, to the point where Scott thinks there may be something redeemable about Deucalion or even Peter, despite the latter trying to kill him in "Smoke and Mirrors. This is proven true due to Peter's love for his daughter, Malia. He also came to trust Derek despite their rivalry, even coming to view him as a brother.  His other mentors included Deucalion,  Chris Argent, and several individuals.

After his second death and resurrection, Scott became more mature, confident, and self-assured. However, while he held his morals high, Scott became predatorial, choosing to live on the mantra "We're predators, doesn't mean we have to be killers. Scott became more willing to enact force on the Beast of Gévaudan and the Ghost Riders if it meant saving innocent people. His influence has even helped to redeem many characters, such as Allison, Derek, Isaac, Ethan, Aiden, and Deucalion. Additionally, Scott became more suspicious of other individuals, as he didn't completely trust Theo after the incident in the school library. In this incident, trust must be earned back, as seen with Chris, Peter, and eventually, Theo, who all did something to show how much they truly changed. Scott entrusted Theo to save Melissa, Nolan, Liam, Corey, and Mason in the hospital, relied on Chris Argent after he saved Scott’s life more than once and Peter went on to become a genuine ally due to his love for Malia.

## Powers and Abilities

**True Alpha Werewolf-Physiology:** Scott was just an ordinary teenage boy who was turned involuntarily into a werewolf by Peter Hale. At first a beta-level werewolf, Scott had problems controlling his shapeshifting. Due to being a True Alpha, Scott's powers cannot be taken by other betas unless it's one of his own makings. He ascended to true alpha after using his willpower to break a Mountain Ash barrier created by Jennifer Blake. As of now, Scott is one of the most powerful shapeshifters in existence and one of the two True Alphas seen in the series, alongside his mentor Derek.

* **Super Strength:** Scott is stronger than the average human being. He can lift heavy objects such as trucks and cars, snap thick chains, punch through solid walls and other objects, rip a door off its hinges, and throw people from a long distance.
* **Superhuman Speed:** Scott is faster than even the most athletic human. Werewolves can run on all fours in both human and werewolf form.
* Super Agility/Reflexes: Scott has enhanced agility and reflexes much better than a human. Werewolves can jump from very large distances and jump from several stories (especially off high buildings). He is also more acrobatic, gymnastic, and athletic than humans are. His reflexes are enhanced as well. Werewolves dodge bullets or any punches. perceiving objects more powerful than any human can, catching arrows in mid-air, and dodging bullets
* **Super Durability:** Scott withstands physical punishment much better than any human alive. He can survive falling off high-story buildings and being thrown across the room. Werewolves can tolerate being punched, kicked, thrown into walls, and falling from extremely tall heights without serious injury. For example, Derek and Ennis were both thrown down two flights but both survived the fall. When Stiles hit Garret Douglas with his bat, he managed to render him unconscious for a few seconds before he reunited with Scott and Liam.
* **Super Senses:** Scott has an incredibly keen sense of smell, sight, and hearing better than most species. He is nocturnal and can see across long distances and track someone through his scents. Scott can hear whispered voices from afar and interpret chemosignals in scents. His supernatural eyes can also see a Nemeton when it conceals itself or a Kitsune’s aura, especially the younger ones.
* **Accelerated Healing:** Scott can possess extraordinary enhanced regenerative healing. Werewolves have powerful healing factors due to his healing from full-body injuries. Scott is immune to human diseases, cannot get drunk, or high on drugs, etc.
	+ **Longevity:** Scott can live for years due to his accelerated healing. The oldest known werewolf was Satomi Ito, and 110-year-old werewolf who has the appearance of a woman and her mid-50s. The same is said about Scott McCall and other shapeshifters.
* **Shapeshifting:** Scott has the power to shapeshift from a regular human to an animal/human form. Werewolves display real-life animal characteristics (as Scott has the characteristics of a wolf. He grows rigid brows, fangs, glowing eyes, claws, mutton chops, pointed ears, and ridged brows. His eyes initially glowed gold due to him being an Omega werewolf. After Scott ascended to True Alpha, his eyes turned red.
* **Pain Absorption:** As a Werewolf, Scott's veins turned black whenever he activated this ability. He can touch animals, humans, and Scott to remove his pain.
* **Control During a Full Moon:** Being a newly bitten werewolf, Scott would fall under the Full Moon’s disastrous effects. However, Derek Hale and Stiles Stilinski helped Scott control his Wolf side. Scott’s relationship with Allison Argent also played a role in this. By Season 4, Scott had gained full control of his shifts during a full moon.
* **Animal Instincts:** Scott is the "apex predator or apex predator." He asserted that dominance over lesser animals such as dogs, cats, and deer to command them to do what he wanted.
* **Memory Ritual:** Scott has the ability to view the memories of another person by piercing the back of his neck with his claws and entering his mind. A powerful enough Werewolf can also remove memories or change them. Peter Hale taught Scott how to use the memory ritual; however, Scott only used it four times: once on Stiles and Lydia, then on Corey Bryant, and a fourth time on a little boy Alex Turner.

## Weaknesses

* **Wolfsbane:** Werewolves are inherently weak if exposed to wolfsbane or Wolfsbane bullet/weaponry to prevent the victim from healing. The purple Scott unwittingly ingested caused in Lydia's drink and inhaled from the Coach's whistle caused Scott horrific hallucinations. Additionally, yellow can weaken or kill werewolf. Previous, Victoria tried killing Scott with vaporized wolfsbane and Kate Argent and Tamora shot Scott with a Wolfsbane bullet; however, he was cured by Alan Deaton on the first two, and later, Derek Hale on both occasions.
* **Mistletoe:** As a canine were-creature, mistletoe is poisonous to Scott and other werewolves. He could get seriously ill as seen with Cora Hale and reaction would be a mixture of blood and vomit.
* **Mountain Ash:** Scott cannot enter a barrier or leave a building made of mountain ash. However, with his willpower and ascension as a true Alpha, Scott was able to break through Jennifer's barrier with no trouble a second time. He does, on occasion, use mountain ash against other supernatural creatures, showing it can be used truth offence or defense. It is also capable of killing him, as seen when Sebastian Valet was killed by his sister with a weapon formed with mountain Ash and wolfsbane.
* **Electricity:** Electricity temporarily renders Scott without his powers for a while. It is also one of the few things capable of wounding him or killing him.
* **Letharia vulpina**: The plant is capable of weakening/suppress Scott's powers and shapeshifting abilities. He learned the hard way when Deaton injected a Nogitsune possessed Stiles, who had been attacking him.
* **Full Moon:** This has become less of a weakness for Scott, now that he has learned to maintain his humanity during full moons, but under certain conditions, Scott is still capable of losing control during this time.
* **Lunar Eclipse:** When a lunar eclipse occurs, Scott will be rendered powerless until the event is over.
* Modified Canine Distemper Virus
