Alpha Vampire

The Alpha Vampire is the very first vampire and progenitor of all other vampires. He was one of the Alpha monsters captured and interrogated by Crowley and Castiel in their efforts to locate Purgatory.

He escaped Crowley's prison and set up a new nest in North Dakota then Montana.

Physical Appearance
His human form is of African descent. Like all vampires, he has a set of retractable razor sharp teeth, as well as long, claw-like fingernails.

Personality
The Alpha Vampire, often acted as a calm and cultured being, with a taste for the finer things, however when pushed he can reveal a furious temper, and had no qualms about savagely attacking the source of his anger. He is also cunning and highly intelligent, being one of the main architects in Eve's plans, he also had a habit of planning ahead.

When it came to humans, he, like the rest of his race, regarded them as nothing more than food, and did not care how many were killed, he was, however, more civil when dealing with other monsters, and seemed to think of them as distant relatives.

When it came to other Vampires, however, he did truly care about them, and considered them all his "children". He took his role as father of their species seriously, acting as both their leader and their protector. He is also greatly angered when they are harmed or killed.

Despite being ruthless, he was not above negotiating or knowing when to call it quits.

Powers and Abilities
The Alpha Vampire has all the traits and abilities of normal vampires, although they are phenomenally enhanced.
 * Immortality - The Alpha will live forever, provided he has a steady supply of blood and is not decapitated.
 * Superhuman Senses - Enhanced sight, hearing, and smell.
 * Superhuman Strength - His strength is such that it took three demons to restrain him, even after being continually filled with dead man's blood and right after receiving two further doses of dead man's blood directly to the neck. He was even able to temporarily stand up to Edgar, a high-ranking Leviathan, pushing him away with one arm with great force.
 * Superhuman Speed - He ranks as one of the fastest creatures seen on the show, barring those who can teleport.
 * Regeneration - Is able to quickly regenerate any non-lethal wound he suffered.

Unique Abilities

 * Soul Reading - The Alpha had the ability to sense that Sam had no soul.
 * Extendable Fingernails -The Alpha was able to make his fingernails grow at will, extending them long enough to cut through his bonds. He later used this ability to cut himself, and give the Winchesters his blood.

Alpha Abilities

 * Enhanced Pain Threshold - The Alpha Vampire has demonstrated a drastically augmented pain threshold, easily enduring any and all forms of torture that Samuel or Crowley could devise.
 * Family Ties - As the progenitor of his race, the Alpha can find his "children" all across the globe, and can sense when they are born and die. He was even aware that Dean had been turned and learned his name, and also knew that he was cured.
 * Telepathy - The Alpha Vampire can communicate telepathically with all of its "children" (Dean called it his "psychic bat-signal"). Connecting with his children has an effect on them. When the Alpha contacted the vampires in Boris's nest and Dean (which may have been a world-wide communication), they were each filled a sense of euphoria and lost consciousness for the duration of his abstract visual message. Apparently, this ability can be stunted by pumping enough dead man's blood into his system.
 * Connection to the Mother of All - Although all monsters have a connection to Eve, the Alphas seem to have a more direct link to her, even across dimensions. Through this connection, she was able to give the Alpha Vampire orders to prepare for the upcoming war, and to "recruit" more monsters. He was also privy to her location, Purgatory, and how to find it.

Vulnerabilities

 * Dead Man's Blood
 * Decapitation
 * Vamp-Tonite

Early Life
It is unknown exactly how old he is, but he mentions he was the thing in the dark when humans first built fire, so it's most likely that he is tens of thousands of years old. When asked, he admitted to knowing about the Leviathans, correlating to his age (however he may know because Eve told him about them). He was created by Eve, like all the other Alpha monsters.

He created an entire race of Vampires across the world that soon populated into a new civilization. He kept close tabs on his "children" while continuing to populate the world with Vampires for many years.

Season 6
The Alpha Vampire is first glimpsed briefly flashing in the minds of its "children" as it commands them to recruit more for its army. Nothing is known about this particular monster, aside from the fact its "messages" can be heard by all vampires and render them unconscious. Dean Winchester sees this vision while he is infected.

Samuel Campbell and his people capture the Alpha Vampire. They subdue him using an I.V. of Dead Man's Blood and attempt to interrogate him, but he is extremely resistant to pain and gives Samuel no information. After Samuel leaves the room where he is being held, the alpha is approached by Dean and Sam. He reveals to them that, though he is the first vampire, he has a mother. He recognizes Dean and he seems interested in Sam's soullessness.

He also tells them that Samuel is torturing him for information about Purgatory and where it is located. Shortly after their conversation, he breaks out of his cage and almost escapes, but demons appear and take him away on Crowley's orders. It is revealed that Samuel has been working for Crowley, who will continue to question the Alpha Vampire about the location of Purgatory.

When Crowley asks Sam and Dean to find another Alpha, Sam and Dean ask if the Alpha Vampire was not enough for him. It is probable that Crowley could not get any information out of him as he is extremely resistant to pain and torture.

Season 7


The Alpha Vampire returns in the Season 7 episode "There Will Be Blood" after Crowley reveals to the Winchesters that the Alpha somehow escaped his prison before Castiel wiped out all the other Alphas.

Later on, when the Winchesters confront the Alpha at his mansion, they discover he has been raising two human children - a boy and a girl - the latter of whom alerted the Alpha that Sam and Dean were coming. They also discover that the Alpha Vampire has made an alliance with Dick Roman and the Leviathans, and that the two races intend to jointly harvest humanity once the Leviathans have dumbed down the population with their DNA-changing food additives.

The Winchesters protest that the Leviathans' additives are also designed to kill the vampires. They also tell the Alpha that they need his blood to stop the Leviathans. The Alpha is skeptical of their claims, as he is still angry with them for his capture and torture the previous year. When his human "son" informs him that Edgar has arrived, the Alpha has Sam and Dean locked in another room while he meets with Edgar.

The Alpha asks Edgar about the additives in the food, and Edgar admits there are "kinks" in them. The Alpha Vampire then asks what the Leviathans are doing to fix them. At this point, Edgar drops all pretense and smugly informs the Alpha that the vampires will "burn" like the roaches they are. He explains that there are "only seven billion" humans on the planet, and the Leviathans intend to wipe out all other supernatural species to ensure their dominance.



When the Alpha argues that Vampires and Leviathans are related species, and Edgar sneers "barely". The Alpha furiously retorts that he is a "son of Eve", but Edgar says the Leviathans consider Eve a worthless "mutt" and a "whore" and not worthy of respect. The Alpha attacks Edgar with a concealed goblet of Borax, but Edgar recovers swiftly and beats the Alpha into submission. He then prepares to devour the Alpha and drink all his blood (thus eliminating a key component in the only weapon that can kill the Leviathans), when Sam and Dean burst into the room. The brothers catch Edgar off guard and decapitate him, putting the Leviathan out of commission.

Dean then tries to attack and bleed the Alpha, but the Alpha throws him aside and tells them there's been enough fighting and that his human daughter Emily is already upset enough. In response, Sam berates him for kidnapping Emily in the first place. The Alpha finally agrees to give the brothers some of his blood, and cuts his wrist, bleeding into a goblet, which he gives the Winchesters. After some more arguing, he also agrees to release one of the two children he's been raising. As the Winchesters leave, the Alpha promises to see them next season.
