Aiden was later killed by an Oni.
Ethan is played by Charlie Carver while his identical twin brother Max Carver plays Aiden.
Biography
Ethan says they were badly mistreated as members of a pack of brutal werewolves when Deucalion helped them develop their ability to merge together into a larger form.
Once they'd mastered the ability, they killed the rest of their pack, became Alphas, and joined The Alpha Pack.
During Lunar Ellipse, their merged form was killed by the Darach. While they survived as individuals, their Alpha status was lost.
Ethan is homosexual and was dating Danny, while Aiden was, prior to his death, romantically involved with Lydia Martin.
Aiden died trying to help Scott McCall save Stiles Stilinski in The Divine Move.
- EDITOR'S NOTE: Because it is an FAQ, in Alpha Pact, Ethan says he and his brother were "the omegas" of the pack. This is not to say they were "Omegas" just that they were abused and mistreated. It is an insult, nothing more.
- By the time we catch up with them in Galvanize, the brothers are actually Omegas due to their "death" and the disbanding of the Alpha Pack.
