An Alpha is the absolute leader of a werewolf pack. Each time zone in the world is a werewolf territory, also known as a wolf pack. Alphas make laws for all werewolves to abide by and rule as they see fit, without restricting much of a werewolf's freedom. Alpha's are the oldest werewolf in the area, and as such, are the strongest werewolves. Each and every Alpha are well over thousands of years old and have a Beta that also lives in the territory, who are each at least 1,000 years old, and are thus the second oldest werewolf in a territory. Beneath a Beta, there are Delta's who act as secondary enforcers, and only require the assistance of a Beta when the situation desperately calls for it.
Despite their leadership, most do not act like royalty, often acting as judge, jury and executioners as well as the police. Generally, a Beta, or a group of Deltas will come in to clean up the mess of a rather unruly werewolf, or anyone, whether they be werewolf hunters, demons, warlocks, evil werewolves or anything that decides who may be causing trouble for werewolves. However, an Alpha will only step into cease a conflict if the case is a very important one in which the entire strength of enforcement is needed.
There is no limits to how far an Alpha will go to capture and possibly kill an offender. The Alpha and Beta often working in pairs to efficiently track down a criminal, assisting Deltas.
This aside, Alpha's do not live like most immortals are portrayed as living in most movies. Although they are incredibly wealthy and financially powerful, they choose not to show it and seldom use money unless incredibly necessary.
