Also a question. If a beta or omega kills a true alpha I'd think they would only get the appearance and strength of a regular alpha and the "true" spark wouldn't transfer onto the beta/omega? As far as I get it, being a True Alpha means you gained the status by the power of your own will, strength and character. That's also how they explained it in 3A.

If Beta or Omega kills True Alpha (which is highly unlikely, but definitely could be done), they can't just become True Alpha. You don't gain someone's character, his personal features, just by killing him. I think that part doesn't "transfer". But it has never been, so far, mentioned. That's what I'm thinking. The power of a True Alpha can't be transferred to someone who isn't a true alpha.
