Okay, that are many questions :) and althought i will try to answer some of them, the main answer will be that it's part of Jeff TW Mythology.

1. Shapeshifting ability: We actually dont know if the other Alphas can do this, it seems its most commonly used in the full moon or when the Alpha is using all his power. Also, remeber the twins said when you let the power overcome you, you can become Peter. Maybe the altered forms of Deucalion and Peter are just that, they had let their power take over them, making them become beasts.Why is different between one and the other?. In real life is because making Peter CGI form was to costly, so they decided not to use that much money on Deucalions form,so they just retained his humanized form but with black skin. In the plotline, it could be because 1. Deucalion has more control than Peter 2. Peter has been 6 year without morphing, so his form could be because of all the power retained 3. The form varies from wolf to wolf, not all the wolf look exactly the same when they show their fangs and no all humans look alike so......

Talia ,Laura and probably Malia being able to shift to full wolf is an estrange ability as explained by Gerard which seems to be genetically related to female Hales and it has nothing to do with being an Alpha, as Laura's body changed after dead, when she had aready been stolen from the alpha spark. In the case of Scott, that shadow was a nightmare, he was afraid of using his power son he had hallucinations with him becoming just like Peter.

2. We only know 2 forms of becoming an Alpha, or you kill one and take his power (explained and demostrated by Derek and also later explaiend by Deaton who uses the phrase "steal the power") or you become a true Alpha by the power of your will (demostrated by Scott and explained by Deaton) but this is too rare and oly happens every 100 years. No werewolf has been shown to be born an alpha so there is nothing that supports this,but as we can't imagine Laura or Talia or all the alphas of the wolrd being killers, some fans suspect there is a way of giving the power to other werewolves volunatrily or if not when an alpha dies of natural causes, it's heir gets the power (example Talia and Laura)

3.Is actually never explained, but it seems to be related to the persons personality.As said before is a destion of Jeff. The thing of the footprint and the claws are just real world common myths about how people can become werewolves, but Chris expalins is posible that a very deep scrath from a wolf will indeed turn someone into a wolf or at least a were-creature( Kate)

4.I dont understand

5.Kitsunes in real world mythology have power over the element they rule. Kira and her mom seem to be Storm/Thunder Kitsunes or Fire Kitsunes, so they can control electricity and maybe other forms of energy .In the TW myths they atribute this ability to the rubbing of their tails that produce energy, also called foxfire but till this point foxfir ecreation has nothing to do with tails, so this is probably just a legedn like the fact wolf are hurt by silver. The nogitsune can control the element Void as stated by Silverfinger ("we call him Void or Nogitusune")In japanese elemental system, Void is the equivalent to Aether or Quintaessence, the fifth element and it has to do with what i call the astral plane, this means he controls  spiritual energy and mental enery, hence he can sontrol stiles by his dreams.This Nogitsune is particularly fond on dark spiritual energy.In TW ,Kitsunes are also able to summon and control Onis,warrior spirits, which is done by using the energy of their tales, which kitsunes can materialize in form of Knives. It seems that when a Kitsune uses all the power of his tales, he is left without powers at all, like noshiko. At last ,most Kitsunes are spirtual entities, they can only take form after being 100 year old and have a very large life (The nogitusne had 1000 years), but it seems that half kitusnes like kira (born from a human dad) have by nature a human body. They al have super human abilites like super strength speed and agility.

6. How?We dont know, it could be inheritance or something, but we are sure her powers activated due to Peters bite. Her powers are to this point the abilty to sense death and be guided to it (even against her concious will), Banshee scream, which can be heard by  wolves and other banshees in many km around and helps the banshee focus her senses and Banshee hearing, which allows her to hear the "voices", probably spirits guiding her by speaking directly to her or by making her hear sounds of things that will put osmeones life in danger (like the buzzing of electricty), and the memories hidden in wolf claws. Apart form this we dont know more and the real wolr mythology only covers the first 2 powers

7. We dont know, but it seems that if a Druid is connected to the nemeton(Like the darach) and charges it with enought power (using scrifices) he can develope powerful telepathic and psiquic abilitites,along with absorbing extra powered versions of the abilities of the ones sacrificed (Jennifer sacrificed 3 healers, so she could health supernaturaly and sacrifice 3 guardians, so she got super strenght).The nemeton can also cure a close to death druid. Normal Druids like Deaton and Morell (porbably also Draiden) just seem to have a very vast knowledge of the supernatural world and some less powerful or ar least not that visible magical abilities. For example, Deaton has shown to be able to keep people in a Death limbo for about 14 hours  and being able to revive them, but has not shown the ability to cure himself or move object with his mind and Morrell and Draiden seem to be able (if at least not tu cure themselves) to survive fatal wounds. They are also the only supernatural entity able to touch and pass with no effort mountain ash barriers.

8.Kate is till now a mystery ,so i cant answer anyhting about her and why personality affects the morph, well that something that is just part of TW universe and Jeff is the only one who can answer this
