Personality[]

Scott McCall was Very driven, with an indomitable will. He is extremely selfless and always thinks about others before himself. Prior to his transformation, Scott was an asthmatic and had two goals: survive high school, start on the first line at lacrosse and graduate. He and Stiles were not athletic and quite the trouble makers, going to find a dead body and skating underneath a water treatment plant. After becoming a werewolf, Scott became more confident and caring/empathetic towards others. However, when he first started out as a werewolf, Scott lost his temper and had fits of rage, especially on the nights of the full moon. However, with Allison as his anchor, Derek's training and Stiles' help, Scott learned how to control his shifts. At first seeing his lycanthropy as a curse, Scott soon accepts it as a gift. By Season 2 and the second half of Season 3, Scott becomes more in control of his rage and transformation, as he was able to stay human without shifting during Lydia's birthday party. However, in Season 3b, he learns to control it eh l even more when Melissa tells her son to be his own anchor instead of Allison.

Scott is also a skilled tactician; for example, he outwitted Gerard on multiple occasions and Theo Raeken during the Beast attacks. He is also very empathetic, understanding why Chris still had a small instinct to shoot him.

Unlike most Alphas, Scott doesn't seek power like Peter Hale and Deucalion. Because of his shere Force and will, Scott managed to become an alpha without having to steal power. He only uses The Alpha roar whenever it is necessary (turning Malia back into a human after she was trapped as a coyote for 8 years). Scott refused to use it on Liam during the Super Moon when he control and viciously attacked Scott. He later used his alpha roar on Eli Hale, only so he could trigger the younger werewolf's healing abilities.

He has come to accept his role as the protector of Beacon Hills. Scott watches over innocents,  his friends, family, pack and town. However, sometimes Scott's plans of protection ended up backfiring on him. When he viewed Corey's memories in his plan to capture one of the Dread Doctors and protect anyone else. However Scott's plan backfired The Dread Doctors abducted Liam and Hayden instead.

After his second death and resurrection,  Scott became more mature, confident and self-assured in his abilities. However, it is notable that he became more predatorial in his determination to stop the Ghost Riders and save everyone in the Wild Hunt.
