Alpha Werewolf
Because Alpha Werewolf defends the untouched earth, he is automatically an adversary for Bernard. Alpha believes Sayre wants to strip the earth of its resources, such as the company had with its coal mine, and says that it's his responsibility to make sure that doesn't happen.

Werewolf Hunter
Werewolf Hunter works for Sayre Energy and Power as a researcher. Shortly after her birth, he found her abandoned in the woods and decided to take her in and raise her as his own. In the beginning, she dismisses his attitude towards her as if he were just a strict father figure, believing that he wants to cure the werewolves of their "curse" and doesn't like her associating with eco-terrorists. However, when you, she, and Alpha discover the extent of his research and how he drew Primal energy from captured werewolves to extend his life, her feelings turn to anger and hatred. She realizes that he did not love her and used her as an energy source, stealing her energy and by extension, preventing her from being able to shift into a werewolf while under his "care". With this newfound truth, she is able to harness her energy and shift for the first time into a werewolf in Chapter 15.

Your Character
