Gerard Argent

Gerard is Allison’s grandfather and a werewolf hunter. Gerard is father of Chris Argent and the late Kate Argent. His name in the credits after the first show was simply listed as “Gerard”.

Season 2
Gerard comes to Beacon Hills for his daughter Kate's funeral. He proves to be more violent than the hunters seen prior on the show. When hunters trapped a homeless man who was also an omega werewolf, Gerard cuts him in half with a silver sword. When Chris reminds him of the hunters’ code, Gerard says he is no longer following the code and has adopted a “kill them all” philosophy. (read more...)

The Argents then install Gerard as principal at Beacon Hills High School as part of their plan to keep an eye on Derek's pack-building activities. (read more...)

He invites Scott to dinner and seems to be genuinely fond of him but later sticks a knife in his gut and threatens to do the same to his mother if Scott fails to do as the hunters ask. (read more...)
