Deucalion

Template:Character infobox**Deucalion** was a supporting character in the third, fifth, and sixth seasons of the MTV series *Teen Wolf.*

He returned to Beacon Hills with the intention of recruiting Derek Hale to the Alpha Pack, but also the potential True Alpha Scott McCall. Deucalion was an Alpha Werewolf and the former leader of the Alpha Pack. He had a tenuous 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, who 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.

## Personality

According to Scott and Derek, Deucalion was once "a man of vision," as he merely wanted peace between both Werewolves and Supernatural hunters. However, after becoming blind, Deucalion became disillusioned with his own ideas after Gerard Argent killed his pack and hunters. 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 Kali, Ennis, Ethan, and Aiden. However, he failed to recruit both Derek Hale and his protege/adoptive brother, Scott McCall.

By the time of Season 3, Deucalion no longer cared for his fellow werewolves and humanity. Manipulative and controlling, Deucalion found out how to exploit each other's weaknesses. His manipulations were successful, as he killed his own 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. He was temporarily successful with the latter, and Deucalion proposed he could help Scott save his mother and father figures, Noah Stilinski and Chris Argent. 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.

However, Deucalion's good nature was apparently restored when Jennifer Blake restored his vision, and he witnessed Scott's ascension into a True Alpha. Even though he goaded Scott to kill Jennifer earlier, Deucalion chose to kill Jen herself so he wouldn't have to. Afterward, Derek and Scott allowed Deucalion to have because of the way Talia Hale felt Deucalion was a "man of vision." He kept true to his word as Deucalion hired Braeden to save Derek Hale and his uncle Peter from the Calavera family.

Though he had become a useful ally for the McCall Pack, Deucalion still remains manipulative and mischievous. He tricked Theo into believing that Belasko's talons wouldn't help him in his vendetta and turned Hayden, Josh, and Corey against Theo. He taught Theo how to steal Josh and Tracy's powers afterward. However, Deucalion revealed his secret alliance with Scott McCall, revealing that they had been in cohorts since the beginning of Season 5A.

## 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 own 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 own 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 own Betas and their Emissaries prior to joining, leaving only his own Emissary, Marin Morrell, alive to guide them. *("Visionary")* 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). *("The Overlooked")*

Despite her loyalty towards him, Kali resented Deucaloion for making her her kill her beloved emissary, Julia Baccari.

### 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 three werewolves, including 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 afraid of a sixteen-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.
