**Athena Nyx De Novo** *(born **Beaumont**)* was a supporting character in *Teen Wolf*. She is daughter to Jezebel Raven, the older sister to Rebekah Beaumont, and the biological mother to Adella McCall. She is best known as the famed "Warrior of Gévaudan" who helped slew the Beast of Gevaudan in 1767, despite having learned that the Beast was her own lover and boyfriend, Sebastien Valet.

Athena was a former internee at the Oak Creek Internment Camp during World War II. She was first introduced in Season 3 as an aunt figure to Kira and Josie Yukimura and sister figure of Noshiko Yukimura who had just moved with her friends family to Beacon Hills from New York City.

However, it was soon revealed that Athena had uprooted and moved to Florida for a specific reason—she is a one-thousand-year-old Spirit Kitsune and Witch who had returned to Beacon Hills to slay the Nogitsune who had recently escaped the prison she created for it in the Nemeton almost seventy years earlier. When it became clear that she and the Oni demons she had summoned by doing magic with the help with her necklace but they were not strong enough to defeat the Nogitsune themselves, she made it clear that her daughter Adella, who was revealed to be The Chosen One, who had all the abilities of every Kitsune except the void, would have to do it for her by killing the Nogitsune's host, her best friend Stiles Stilinski.

Fortunately, Adella did not have to kill her packmate in order to neutralize the Nogitsune, and after the Dark Kitsune was taken care of, Athena left to go travel the world, coming back to visit her daughter to build a strong bond with.

**Athena** is a member of the **Beaumont Family**, **Raven Family**, and was an ally of the **McCall Pack**. By birthright she is a member of the **Gemini Coven**, **Eclipse Coven**, and **Divine Coven**. She has ties to **The Original Family**.

## Early History

### Paris, The Middle Ages, 11th Century

Athena is the first daughter of Mr. Beaumont and Jezebel Raven, wealthy landowners from Marseille, in the 10th century. She and her younger sister, Rebekah were born in the Old World, but eventually after 100 years she moves to the New World with her sister.

In a flashback, a young Athena is shown happily playing in the woods with her younger sister as they chase each other around and tackled one another. During a thunder storm Athena stayed awake with her sister and told her stories of their ancestors that would fight the evil and that a powerful Thunder Kitsune came and used the storm and lightning to her advantage and helped them in battle.

### Greece, 1221

Athena preformed a spell to make Marcel Gerard the first and only Immortal.

### England, 1492

Athena lived as a noblewoman in England, along with her sister. Every 10 years they would move since they would not age anymore.

### Denmark, 16th Century

It was mentioned by Rebekah that she and Athena resided in Copenhagen in the 1500s.

### Cádiz, Spain, 1702

In 1702, Athena and Rebekah set sail for their return to the New World.

### Gévaudan, France, 1764

When Chris asked Gerard if he had heard of any reliable methods to kill the recently-resurrected Beast of Gévaudan, Gerard stated that the only method he had ever been told was a "simple spear and katana in the hands of two young women," which led Chris to realize that he was talking about the Maid and Warrior of Gévaudan. In the flashbacks to the 1760s, Athena was shown hunting with her friend, Marie-Jeanne Valet with her katana throughout the snow-covered woods of France.

Later, she was seen dining at a tavern, where the owner, Bernard, was about to nail a poster on the wall that announced news of *"La Bête de Gévaudan"*. Before he could grab his hammer to affix the poster to the wall, a bolt flew across the room and pinned the poster where he had pressed it, surprising Barnard. He looked over and saw Athena smirking at him at the bar and thanked her for the assistance before returning to fill her drink and give her her meal. When Athena became engrossed in reading the letter she was sent from boyfriend, Sebastien Valet, who was fighting in the Seven Years' War in North America, Barnard insisted that she not give up hope. She set down the letter and began sharpening her katana while the men at the next table, including the Magistrate, Monsieur Tolbert, began discussing *La Bête*, and the fact that there were so many conflicting reports about what it looked like. Tolbert informed them that until the King sent a band of his best men to help hunt the Beast, it was up to them to arrange their own search party. Just then, a male voice called out from behind them that they all knew who the best Hunters in Gévaudan was—his sister, Marie-Jeanne and his lover, Athena. At the sound of the man's voice, Athena was shocked to find her boyfriend, Sebastian, and his comrade, Marcel, standing in the doorway. She wasted no time and rushing over and kiss him. Once their tearful reunion was over, Tolbert approached Athena and her friend, Marie-Jeanne and asked if they were willing to lead their hunting party.

However, Henri Argent came into the tavern with the body of a young boy in his arms. Barnard, realizing that it was his son Emile, rushed over to cradle his body while he sobbed. When questioned about what had happened, Henri explained that Emile was attacked and that his last words were *"La Bête."* The next morning, Athena is sharpening her katana getting ready to fight. When they left to start their hunt, Athena noticed Marcel conspicuously locking his storm cellar, and though she seemed mildly suspicious, she shrugged it off in favor of focusing on the task at hand. After their dawn hunting party failed to get them any closer to the Beast, they decided to start a new hunt after sundown. When darkness fell, the hunters were each attacked by the Beast one by one as they were yanked away by their ankles. Athena used magic to start her sword up. Suddenly Henri, quickly threw a jar full of Mountain Ash in a line around them. The Beast lunged toward them, only to be blocked by the mystical properties of the ash. Realizing he was unable to pass, the Beast fled, leaving a shocked Marie-Jeanne, Athena, and Henri behind. Athena revealed herself to her friend that she was a Kitsune. Knowing that they needed to know who they were dealing with before they proceeded, Athena, Marie-Jeanne, and Henri returned to the tavern with bottles of wine that they had laced with Mistletoe and insisted that everyone there, including Bernard, Tolbert, Marcel, and Sebastien, drink it in honor of the dead. After everyone had a glass, they toasted to all who were killed by the Beast and drank their wine, with Athena, Marie-Jeanne, and Henri keeping a close watch on everyone, since a Werewolf would have a bad reaction to the herb-laced alcohol. Marcel noticed the Mistletoe berries at the bottom of his glass and realized with horror that Marie-Jeanne and Athena were suspicious, so he crushed his glass in his hand to create a diversion.

Marie-Jeanne quickly rushed Marcel with Athena behind them out to the well to use the cold water to clean his bleeding wounds before asking him if he had a cloth to wrap his palm. Marcel fished out a small key from his pocket and handed it to her, cryptically informing her that she would find what she was looking for in his cellar. Down in the cellar, Athena and Marie-Jeanne who held up her lantern and was horrified to find that the basement was filled with the dozens of mauled bodies of men, women, and children alike. Both Marie-Jeanne and Athena return to the well where Marcel waits for them. With Marie-Jeanne holding an arrow to Marcel, Athena saw that his hand was still bleeding and dripping onto the snowy ground, Athena realized that Marcel couldn't be the Beast, but was rather just covering for him, since a Werewolf's wounds would have healed by this point. It was then that she was hit with the revelation that the Beast was her own boyfriend Sebastien, who had reacted to the Mistletoe-laced wine while they were gone and revealed his blue Werewolf eyes. When Athena confronted him inside the tavern, she angrily accused him of killing children, which Sebastien openly confirmed without argument, informing her that he had transformed after accidentally drinking rainwater out of a wolf's paw print in the woods while serving in the French military and pointing out that his kind kills anyone who dares cross their path. He noticed that Athena was briefly considering exposing him to the rest of the tavern, but he warned her that if she did so, he would have no problem with slaughtering the lot of them within moments. He then kissed her on the lips as he got up to leave and assured her that she would never be able to stop him or catch him, as he was the feared Beast of Gévaudan.

After her confrontation with her lover, Athena with Marie-Jeanne went to Henri's cabin to request his help in killing Sebastian, the Beast. While brainstorming a way to kill him, Henri suggested that they needed something that would use the Beast's size and weight against itself, leading Athena to say a pike, or spear, would be their best bet. They then mixed steel with wolfsbane and Mountain Ash to make a sharp tip for the pike, which they made in the shape of a *fleur-de-lis*. Once it had cooled, Marie-Jeanne forged her own blood on it and then Athena bind her magic to it before fording her blood on it as well, under the light of a full moon.

It took her and Marie-Jeanne three years to finally find Sebastian, but they were ultimately able to track him down in 1767, chasing him into the woods. Athena uses her magic to bring the pike to her and hands it to Marie-Jeanne before she grabs her katana with magic and they both used their weapons against Sebastian as it goes through his chest, forcing Sebastien to shift back into his human form. At first, Sebastien sneered that it would take much more than a pike to kill him, but when he began coughing up black blood, she informed him of the mystical nature of the pike, since the Wolfsbane and Mountain Ash was disabling his accelerated healing ability. Sebastien attempted to take comfort in the fact that even if he did die, he would live in infamy, and that everyone would remember him as the feared and ferocious Beast of Gévaudan, but when both Athena and Marie-Jeanne assured him that no one would remember his name, he realized that they planned to punish him with *damnatio memoriae*. He became furious that Athena and Marie-Jeanne would erase all traces of his name, which he shared with them, but Athena kisses him on the lips to echo their last meeting and promised him that if he was remembered, it would be only as a Beast. Sebastien then died, and though Athena seemed upset to have lost her lover, she did not shed a tear.

### New Orleans, 1800's

In 1820, Athena and Rebekah were living in New Orleans for some time.

### Chicago, 1920s

Both Athena and Rebekah stayed in Chicago for two years before heading to the Old Word to Paris, France.

### 1940's

During World War II, she was living in Beacon Hills, California, when she, along with her friends Noshiko Yukimura and Satomi Ito, was forced into the Oak Creek internment camp due to the fact that she was Japanese, as the recent bombing of the Navy base at Pearl Harbor by Japan had caused distrust toward immigrants of that heritage. Though Athena wasn't Japanese she was with Noshiko and Satomi when they came to take them. She nearly died in the riot that occurred there after she and her lover, Corporal Rhys, discovered that two of the camp's MPs were working with the camp physician to sell necessary medications on the black market, which led to many of the internees dying of pneumonia due to not getting the antibiotic treatment they needed. Athena was so injured by gunfire that the MPs believed her to be dead, and she knew that she would be unable to heal quickly enough to fight back after they took her and the other victims out to a field to burn the bodies and thus cover up the evidence. Distraught by everything she had lost and furious at the thought that the corrupt camp employees would be getting away with the cover-up of the deaths of so many of her people, Athena prayed to her Kitsune ancestors for *kitsune-tsuki,* or possession by a fox spirit; specifically, she wanted a Nogitsune who fed on chaos, strife, and pain to give her the power she needed to heal and take revenge on the American military for what they had done to compatriots.

However, since trickster spirits are prone to having very dark senses of humor, the Nogitsune possessed the body of Corporal Rhys, who had died from his own injuries after being hit by a Molotov cocktail and set ablaze in the riot, particularly due to the fact that the camp's morphine supply had been sold on the black market as well. The Nogitsune then went on a rampage through the camp, killing American soldiers and nurses as well as Japanese and Japanese-American internees. It wasn't until Athena grabbed her magical *katana* and gained the assistance from her friend Satomi, a then-Beta Werewolf, that she was able to neutralize the Nogitsune by reverting it to its fly form and locking it in a jar, which she then buried within the roots of the Nemeton, a mystical and sacred tree used as a meeting place for Druids that had yet to be cut down in 1943.

At some point in the mid-late 20th century, Athena met Alpha Werewolf, Samuel Mitchell in Paris while he was taking a vacation. Sam knew a lot of history, especially World War II. Some years later, they conceived a child, Selene Beaumont thought they had to give her up to keep her safe. Eventually Athena left Sam in the US and traveled to Europe to keep him safe from her dangerous history. Eventually she would move in with her best friend, Noshiko and her husband Ken Yukimura and their daughters Kira and Josie Yukimura. Years pass before Kira and Josie started gaining their Kitsune abilities they all move from New York to Beacon Hills where Athena learned that the Nogitsune had been released once again.
