Alphas

The Alphas are a group of human werewolves.

History
They started out as a group made up of university students, who were taught about shape-shift into and being in wolf-form by Tera West. They could theoretically learn new spells, but specialize in shape-shifting.

Most of the remaining Alphas are members of the Chicago Alliance.

Known members are: William "Billy" Borden, Georgia, Alex, Cindy,, Tommy, Mitchell, Kirby, Andi, Marcy, Phil, Greg.

Turn Coat
In Turn Coat, the Alphas are attacked by the Naagloshii. Kirby is killed and Andi Macklin is badly injured and in the hospital. Billy tells Harry he's not doing anything blind anymore. If he wants the Alpha's help, he needs to be better informed. Harry give him a CliffNotes version of the supernatural world with a promise of more later. The Alphas engage in the battle on Demonreach against the Gray men.

Ghost Story
In Ghost Story, some of the Alphas are attending the meeting of the Chicago Alliance at Murphy's house—they are: Marci, Will Borden, and Andi ("Furry Knockers").

Word of Butcher
When asked what happened to the other alpha's, the author responded: "Like happens with a lot of kids after college, they graduated and went their separate ways. Some of them wrote off the whole experience as the result of taking drugs in college. One ended up super religious. One ended up institutionalized. Given Kirby’s death, Billy is going to try to track down some of the group."
