He is also the husband of the late Victoria Argent and boyfriend of Melissa McCall, the father of Allison Argent, the father figure of Scott McCall, and a descendant of Marie-Jeanne Valet and Henri Argent.

He comes from a long line of supernatural hunters and dislikes Werewolves and Scott McCall in general. However, he changes sides after his father Gerard nearly corrupted Allison and he lost his wife. After seeing that all Werewolves still have humanity and watching his daughter and Scott's friendships, Chris follows the changes his daughter made to the code for Allison's sake, this time only hunting supernatural creatures that the innocents. He becomes an ally and father figure for the Pack, specifically with Scott and develops a romance with Melissa.

He is an ally of the McCall pack and the Argent Family, as well as being indirectly related to the Hale Family, the McCall Family and the Delgado Family.

## Personality

Throughout Chris' career, he was a supernatural hunter who, over the years, faced demonic Oni and has hunted down wicked werewolves and berserkers. Regardless of the supernatural creature, Chris hunted it down no matter what, believing most werewolves need to be put down like rabid dogs. Unlike his family, Chris lives by the code to never hunt werewolves who are young and have never spilled innocent blood. He was was horrified to learn that Kate was the arsonist who set the Hale family house on fire including human children and washing Gerard cutting an Omega werewolf in half. Chris also had mixed feelings for Allison's ex-boyfriend Scott McCall, especially after learning that he is a werewolf. He saved Scott when he saw Kate pointing a gun at an innocent werewolf who didn't hurt anyone. However, Chris himself grew angry when he saw Scott and Allison were still dating and pointed a gun at him, showing that Argent still let his anger as emotions get the better of him.

Ruthless and unforgiving, Chris is misguided but doing what he thinks is right. He was overprotective of Allison at first, even refusing her to see Scott and keeping a very close eye on her without realizing this was making Allison uncomfortable and unhappy. Unlike his sister and father, Chris eventually learned to accept Allison's and Scott's friendship, even sometimes using Scott as a reason for Allison to stop being ruthless. Despite remaining stern and calm in earlier seasons, Argent kept a mask on that made him seem cold and uncaring. He kept pressing Scott on what to tell the police about Allison's deaths. Even though Argent told Isaac that he was able to help his emotions under control, Chris broke down crying and Isaac hugged him while the man swore to avenge his daughter. He helped the McCall Pack take down the Oni and Nogistune before leaving for France.

By season 3, Argent has seen all the good Scott and Allison do and has come to accept that not all Werewolves are monsters. More open minded, Chris eventually becomes one of the parental figures of the McCall pack, becoming more fatherly towards Scott and Isaac because of their younger age and developing friendships with Derek Hale, Melissa McCall and Noah Stilinski. He also offered to help Malia control her shifts because even though she was a werecoyote, she was still human and he believed he child save her from her bloodthirst when he failed with Kate.  Chris continued to live by his daughter's new code to protect innocents, both human and supernatural. Chris was also disgusted by his sister Kate's actions, such as setting the Hale Family house on fire or turning Scott into a Berserker. This also extended to his father, especially after witnessing Gerard's willingness to kill his own granddaughter and a genocide against the supernatural community.

Argent is also a fairly protective individual, especially towards his daughter, Allison. He made it clear to Scott that he always thinks about his daughter's safety, especially after the incident in the school involving the Alpha's attacks. This love and protection also extends to his friends, especially towards Melissa, Scott, and Isaac. He once protected Melissa from a blood thirsty werewolf (without realizing it was Malia) and even urged Melissa to get Scott and the pack out of Beacon Hills in concern for his safety. He concerned himself with Lydia's well-being when she started sensing that her pack mates in danger during the Beast's attack on the school. Additionally, all odds, Argent also remains loyal to his friends until the end due to his obligation to uphold Allison's memory. During the war with the Beast of Gévaudan, Chris stood in between Gerard and Scott so he could kill the Beast and Dave Mason. Argent also developed a romantic relationship with Melissa, as he found a second love who was strong and independent. He also developed a close friendship with Malia Tate, offering lessons on maintaining control. He seems to have recovered some of his relationship with Kate because he willingly left his father to die at his sister's hand so Gerard wouldn't hurt his friends or anybody else.
