- “Are we serious with this kid? Look at him. He's an alpha? To what? A couple of useless teenagers?”
- ―Kali to Deucalion about Derek Hale
Kali is the secondary antagonist of Season 3A of Teen Wolf.
She is a member of the Alpha Pack and was Deucalion's right-hand woman.
History[]
First Hunter-Werewolf War[]
Kali was an Alpha of her pack and was one of the most feared among her kind. In 2004, she and her pack attended a meeting of all the werewolf packs as the rise of the Argent Hunters loomed over them.
She later killed her betas to gain initiation into the Alpha Pack, which she found liberating. However, the one person she could not bring herself to kill was her druid emissary Julia, whom she left for dead. This caused Julia to grow hatred towards Kali and led her to plot her revenge by becoming the Darach, a demonic evil witch who made human sacrifices to make her stronger. However, Kali truly believed Julia to be dead for years.
Afterward, Kali began a romantic relationship with Ennis
Return to Beacon Hills[]
In mid-September 2011, Kali and her pack returned to Beacon Hills to recruit Talia Hale's son, Derek, a newly ascended Alpha, and his protege, Scott McCall, an omega werewolf who had the potential to be a True Alpha (rarest of all Werewolves).
Personality[]
Kali is arrogant, selfish, evil, and manipulative and thinks little of Beta and Omega werewolves. According to Deucalion and Kali, her killing the rest of her beta pack was "liberating" when their powers augmented hers. Kali could not comprehend why her leader wanted Derek and Scott to be in their pack, deeming them unworthy and showing she thought lowly of Beta and Omega Werewolves despite having a pack of her own. She also was sadistic, killing 16-year-old Erica Reyes the moment the younger beta tried tm escaping and forcing Derek to kill Boyd, his own beta.
Despite her sadism, Kali did care about Ennis
She was also very vindictive, swearing revenge on Derek when she believed he killed Ennis. However Deucalion murdered Ennis and made her believe Derek was responsible for his death so he and Scott joined the Alpha Pack. She also had a tendency of keeping her werewolf claws out on both her hands and her toes, inducing fear into the hearts of her enemies. However, a few individuals were not afraid of Kali's tactics. For example it didn't faze Alan Deaton when Kali threatened to kill Marin Morrell when she showed off her claws. He even refused to help in saving Ennis' life until Marin told Deaton that if he didn't help them the alphas would go after Scott too. Additionally, Lydia wasn't intimidated by Kali and made a snarky comment about Kali being "someone in desperate need of a pedicure."
However, Kali could be hypocritical, accusing Deucalion of having a soft spot for Scott McCall. The Alpha werewolf points out that Kali's mercy prevented her from killing Julia because she did not bring herself to kill her. Instread, Kali left her to die of her injuries and hoped she would die in peace. The unwillingness to kill showed even Kali's level of sentimentality for her friend a long time ago, albeit a twisted one. She is also short-sighted, as Deucalion easily manipulated her and the entire pack. Not even Morel's moments of truth convinced her otherwise. However, Scott, Aiden and Ethan were both skeptical about this and made the twins loose their respect for Deucalion. When Kali confronted Jennifer, all affection for her former friend vanished. Before her death, Kali still remained arrogant, cocky and merciless. Rather than apologize to her when given the chance, Kali revealed that her last regret was not being able to rip Jennifer's head off when she had the chance.

- ―Kali about Derek in Frayed.
- “Are you asking if maybe there was a moment of uncertainty? That was when I walked away thinking she was dead that maybe I turned back? And maybe I saw her there, lying perfectly still, but I focused my hearing anyway. Listened to the sound of her heart still beating....still fighting for life, and I thought: I could go back and finish it, or I could let someone I love die peacefully. And maybe I just kept walking.”
