Alpha Pack

**Deucalion** was a major antagonist-turned-anti-hero in the MTV series *Teen Wolf,* serving as the secondary antagonist of Season 3a before redeeming himself and becoming a recurring protagonist in the fifth and sixth season. He debuted in "Tattoo," the first episode and the third season.

Deucalion was an old ally of Talia Hale before the war between humans and Werewolves and the former Alpha of both his and the Alpha Packs. He returned to Beacon Hills to recruit Derek Hale to the Alpha Pack, but also the potential True Alpha Scott McCall. Deucalion redeemed himself and became an important ally to Scott and his pack against other threats: Theo Raeken, the Beast of Gévaudan and Tamora Monroe and Gerard Argent's armies. However, after his vision was restored, Deucalion abandoned his violent ways and killed Jennifer Blake himself so Scott would not lose his status as a True Alpha.

He developed a tenacious alliance with the McCall Pack and was temporarily the mentor of Scott McCall and Malia Tate.

## Role in the Series

### Season 3B

In the mid-season premiere, Derek Hale and his uncle, Peter Hale were captured by the Calavera family when they were returning Cora Hale to the South American Pack she stayed at. Deucalion hired Braeden, whom he had scarred for life when he had scratched her, to rescue Derek. Though his presence went unnoticed, it is implied that he kept his eye on the town from afar.

### Season 6B

In the second half of Season 6, Deucalion is summoned by Scott and his girlfriend Malia Tate to the McCall house after a near fatal shooting at his house severely injured Lydia Martin, Rafael McCall, Melissa McCall and Chris Argent. He refused to fight Gerard Argent

Unfortunately, Deucalion was killed by Tamora Monroe and her army of Hunters in front of Scott and the rest of his porch. Confident in Scott's abilities, In his final moments, Deucalion looked to Scott and told the younger Werewolf that Gerard feared them because he knew Scott was going to beat the old Hunter. Everyone, especially Scott and Malia, were saddened by his death, showing that he died a different man. Because of Deucalion's teachings, Scott was able to fight the Anuk-ite blind and give Stiles enough time to kill the creature once and for all, thus avenging its victims and preventing harm from its future ones.

## Personality

According to Derek and Talia Hale, Deucalion was "a man of vision," as he merely wanted peace between both Werewolves and Supernatural Hunters. He was also very similar to Scott McCall when he was younger, with both of them in favor of peace and harmony between groups and avoiding conflict and bloodshed as much as possible. However, after becoming blind, Deucalion became disillusioned with his own ideas after Gerard Argent killed his pack and his fellow Hunters to pin the blame on Deucalion. He cared deeply for all of his packs and had so much faith in humanity that he remained somewhat naive, to the point where he underestimated Gerard's deceitful nature. The rush of the stealing of Marco's powers corrupted Deucalion, who became power-hungry and began slaughtering all of his Betas and creating an Alpha Pack. He became fixated on recruiting other Alphas such as his allies Kali and Ennis and determined to create the "perfect Alpha Pack" by finding unique types of Alphas, taking in twins Ethan and Aiden for their power to combine into a giant Werewolf. However, he failed to recruit both Derek Hale and his protege/adoptive brother, Scott McCall throughout the first half of the third season.

Introduced in Season 3, Deucalion no longer cared for his fellow Werewolves and humanity in general. According to both Jennifer Blake and Marin Morrell, Deucalion will do whatever it takes to turn anyone, even good individuals like Scott and Derek. As per his own words, he would kill any living being who got in his way as long as he achieved his goals, disregarding the lives of even underage teenagers like Derek's Betas, Erica Reyes and Vernon Boyd, who were killed by Kali in the name of Deucalion's mission to gain Derek's membership. Manipulative and controlling, Deucalion found out how to exploit each other's weaknesses. Despite this, Deucalion warned both the Hale and Alpha packs to cover their eyes when Allison Argent's flash arrows lit up the room so no one else would be as blind as him. His manipulations were successful, as he killed his packmate, Ennis to ensure Kali would go after Derek, who would join them in the Alpha Pack, as his recruitment of Derek would eventually bring Scott into their ranks. After Melissa was kidnapped by the Darach, Deucalion successfully got Scott to his side in the event to save his mother and father figures, Noah Stilinski and Chris Argent.

However, during the lunar eclipse, Deucalion's good nature was restored after Derek tricked Jennifer into curing him off his blindness and witnessing Scott's ascension into a True Alpha. Even though he goaded Scott to kill Jennifer earlier, Deucalion chose to kill the Darach himself so Scott wouldn't lose his status. Afterward, Derek and Scott allowed Deucalion to have because of Talia Hale's belief that Deucalion was a "man of vision." He kept to his word as Deucalion hired Braeden to save Derek Hale and his uncle Peter from the Calavera family.

Though he had become an ally for the McCall Pack, Deucalion remains manipulative and mischievous. During the events of season 5, Deucalion mysteriously became blind again and swore revenge on Scott McCall. He seemed to embrace the role of an "evil mentor" in front of Theo Raeken. However, in time, it would be revealed that Deucalion was never blind in the first place and that he was working with Scott. He turned Hayden against her pack when he convinced her to help her friends save Lydia Martin and tricked Theo into believing that Belasko's talons wouldn't help him in his vendetta against the Beast of Gévaudan so Scott could give them to Malia and against her biological mother. He taught Theo how to steal Josh and Tracy's powers and didn't seem to mind that he killed both. Even though Deucalion was the indirect cause of Tracy and Josh's murder, he still commented that Theo killing Josh was a bad idea as it made his pack smaller and weaker. Despite his rivalry with Theo, Scott warned him not to trust Deucalion, foreshadowing that the Older werewolf would eventually betray him.

As the war between The Supernatural community and The Hunters escalated, Deucalion had given up most of his violent ways and developed ways to defend himself. Despite his unwillingness to fight Gerard and the huntess Tamora Monroe up close, he agreed to teach Scott and Malia how to to rely on their senses other than their sight to fight the Anuk-ite. He taught them how to detect their opponents through echolocation, proprioception, equilibrioception, and thermoception.

## Relationships

### Kali

Deucalion and Kali both met each other long before the events of the series.

During a summit with the Hale Pack, Kali's original pack, Ennis' original pack, and Deucalion and his original pack in Beacon Hills, they listened as Ennis described what the Argent Hunters did to one of his Betas before killing him.

Some time afterward, Deucalion got the idea to create his pack of Augmented Alphas like himself, with him being the Alpha of Alphas, and he invited his associates Kali and Ennis to join him. However, he required them to kill all of their Betas and their Emissaries before joining, leaving only his own Emissary, Marin Morrell, alive to guide them. Ennis was the first to join Deucalion, with Kali joining afterward (though, unbeknownst to any of them, Jennifer Blake, Kali's Emissary, survived her attack and spent the next few years planning her revenge against them).

Despite her loyalty towards him, Kali resented Deucalion for making her kill her beloved Emissary, Julia Baccari. Unbeknownst to Kali, Deucalion had killed her lover Ennis and manipulated her into believing that he had succumbed to the wounds inflicted by Derek, causing Kali to become more determined to recruit Derek. Even though Marin Morrell confessed the truth to Kali, her loyalty to Deucalion and thirst for vengeance against Derek prevented her from believing her. Despite their close relationship, Deucalion appeared to see Kali, as well as the Steiner twins, as nothing more than pawns and he would likely have put an end to their lives as he had done with Ennis in the name of achieving his "perfect Alpha Pack." Kali would eventually meet her demise at the hands of her former Emissary and the Darach, Julia Baccari/Jennifer Blake.

### Scott McCall

Deucalion heard rumors of Scott McCall and believed the young Werewolf to be the True Alpha. decided to travel to Beacon Hills to recruit Scott and Scott's ally, the newly ascended Alpha Derek Hale, into joining his Alpha Pack. This started at the end of Season 2 when Alpha Pack captured Derek's Betas, Vernon Boyd, and Erica Reyes.

Deucalion and Scott first properly met in the elevator during the events of "Tattoo," but Scott was not aware of his identity at the time. Deucalion asked for assistance on the floor. Before he could decline, Deucalion placed his hand on his shoulder and squeezed it, forcing Scott to reluctantly lead him down the hallway. As he did so, he sighed and drooped his head, as he was in a hurry to find Isaac before his accelerated healing ability drew suspicions from the hospital staff. Derek warned Scott and Stiles that Deucalion led the Alpha Pack that captured their friends and fellow Werewolves, Cora, Boyd, and Erica. The young woman, Braeden, believed that Deucalion was threatened by Scott because of the man he would grow up to be. However, Deucalion withheld his intentions with Scott, and said he was not afraid of a seventeen-year-old boy, resolving with the advice someone gave him: "To eliminate the threat, get someone else to do it for you," meaning he planned to have Derek eliminate Scott if he refused to join the Alpha pack as an alternative.

Scott learned of Deucalion's identity in "Unleashed" when Deucalion stopped Aiden and Ethan from attacking both Scott and Isaac. Scott recognized him as the same blind man he met on the elevator. Ironically, his third meeting with Deucalion happened on an elevator after they met again after Scott left Allison and Chris' apartment. However, the two enemies exchanged threats with each other. During the fight in the abandoned mall, Deucalion offered subtle hints that he wanted Scott as a member of the pack.
