**Christopher "Chris" Argent** is one of the protagonists of the 2011-2017 MTV series *Teen Wolf* and a major protagonist in the 2023 reunion film. He is the father of Allison Argent, the widower of the late Victoria Argent, the son of the late Gerard Argent, and the older brother of Kate Argent. Chris is also a hunter of the evil supernaturals while later protecting the innocent, both humanity and supernaturals. He later developed a friendship with Derek Hale, Noah Stilinski, Scott and Melissa McCall.

## History

### Season 3

After Nogistune flies take control of Derek, the Alpha Twins, and Isaac,  a possessed Derek attacked Chris. After Hollow Stiles abducted Lydia, Chris and Derek appear to make amends, stating that they are not enemies. Chris told Allison she had finally graduated and taught her about the Argent family tradition of forming silver bullets. However, she tells Chris that she wants to make silver arrowheads because the bow and arrow are her weapon of choice. Afterward, she tells her father that she is proud  both of them and what they have become. Later, Chris gets an urgent call from Allison, who informs him that Scott, Stiles, and Isaac found Lydia. He tells her for them to wait for him. However, Allison says there is no time. Horrified, Chris rushes to the Oak concentration camps that Noshiko lived in after Pearl Harbor, only to find that Allison was killed. Before he arrives, Allison professes her eternal love for Scott but cannot finish her warning that silver can kill an army of the Oni demons.

After the kids tell the police about Allison's death (while leaving out the supernatural part), Chris and Isaac go back to his apartment and immediately comfort him. However, Isaac deduced that Allison was trying to tell Scott to inform Chris that the Oni can be destroyed by silver. Argent uses the silver arrows Allison forged and uses it against Nogistune's demons.

After the defeat of the Nogistune and the Oni and the death of his daughter and Aiden Steiner, Argent left Beacon Hills with Isaac, to grieve and live with his extended family, unable to bear staying in the apartment without Allison.

## 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. He lives by the code to never hunt werewolves who are young and have never spilled innocent blood, something his father and younger sister are incapable of doing. Chris initially hates his daughter's boyfriend, Scott, especially after learning that he is a werewolf. Because of this hatred, there are times when Chris forgot about the code of never harming kids due to emotional reasons.

Ruthless and unforgiving, Chris is misguided but doing what he thinks is right and whenever something traumatic happens, he leaves beacon Hills, only to find back. Despite remaining stern and calm in earlier seasons, Argent kept a mask on that made him seem cold and uncaring. He pressed Scott for answers on what Allison was trying to warn them about before she died and told Isaac that he was able to help his emotions under control. However, deep down, Chris was angry and vengeful for Allison's death and helped the McCall pack take down the Oni and Nogistune in both 2013 and 2026.

By season 4, Argent has seen all the good Scott and Allison do. He becomes one of the parental figures of the McCall pack, especially towards Derek, Scott, and Isaac. He also lives by his daughter's new code to protect innocents, both human and supernatural. As such, Chris is disgusted by both his sister and father's actions against the kids and remains loyal to his friends until the end. 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.

## Absences

* After Victoria's death, Chris and Allison decide to leave Beacon Hills for the summer and live with their extended family in France. When they returned before "tattoo," Chris and Allison moved out of their home and into an apartment, on the condition that they would leave the hunter lifestyle behind.
* At the end of Season 3, after Allison's death at the hands of the Oni, Chris sells e and leaves for France in order to grieve properly for his daughter, taking Isaac with him. Unlike Isaac, Scott contacted him for help. Chris returns, saving Scott from Liam experiencing his first full moon.
* At the end of Season 4, Chris makes a deal with the Calavera family: help them find Kate, in exchange for the safety of his, the McCall Pack. However, in the second half of Season 5, he is contacted by Scott again, to help their friends against the Dread Doctors and the Beast of Gévaudan. This time, he stays for good.

## Powers and abilities

* **Hunting Skills**
	+ **Tracking**
* **Supernatural Lore:** Due to the Argent family bestiary, Chris is very knowledgeable about the supernatural world. He knows about the weaknesses of werewolves, including electricity, wolfsbane, hyper sensitivity to sounds, etc. He presumably knows that the color of a werewolf's eye can determine whether or not it took an innocent life or not. He is also somewhat aware of the Argent story of his ancestors, Marie-Jeanne and Henry Argent, calling the former the "First Argent Hunter," probably explaining why the Argent family is a matriarchal one.
* **Multilingual**: Chris appears to know how to speak French, As he was able to translate his daughter's new code from French to English in a matter of seconds.
* **Medical knowledge:** Being a hunter, Argent has some level of medical skills. He taught his daughter how to sow a wound back up, as she managed to stitch up Scott's wounded side after being scarred and clawed by The Alpha Twins. In "Orphaned," Chris was able to remove a Berserker claw from Scott's side so he could heal faster. Chris assisted Melissa in helping with Malia when he was forced to subdue her with his own bullets.  He also  instructed Melissa on how to create a 9 herbal remedy after he was wounded attempting to enter the Ghost Riders portal to their train station.

## Relationships

### Victoria Argent

After helping Victoria with her suicide and seeing his father corrupt his daughter, Chris temporarily took a leave of absence.
