The Alpha Shapeshifter was the very first shapeshifter.

Powers and Abilities

The Alpha Shapeshifter is very powerful and is clearly more dangerous then a normal shapeshifter. According to common lore, it has a connection with all of its 'offspring' which allows it to locate them.

  • Like all shapeshifters, it can change its physical complexion and appearance, although it does not shed its skin while morphing into a human.
  • Like the Alpha Vampire, it's highly resistant to pain.
  • It possesses superhuman-strength.

6.02 Two And A Half Men

This shapeshifter starts gathering a following of its 'offspring' and is apparently reproducing with women by morphing into their husbands. When Sam and Dean rescue one of its children, the Alpha Shapeshifter storms the Campbell's compound and kills Mark Campbell, overcoming several gunshot wounds and tranquilizer darts, as well as a silver knife to the heart. It then reclaims the baby from Dean and leaves. This shapeshifter is able to transform in just a few seconds without shedding its skin.
