Not much was known about Chase's early history, except that he was part of the clan of werewolves known as the Crescent Wolf Clan that were cursed by a witch named Brynne Deveraux (possessed by Céleste Dubois) on the vampire Marcel's orders in the 1990s. The curse placed on the Crescent clan forced them to be wolves every day except on the full moon, when they would take their human form again for several hours until returning back to their wolf forms when the moon set. It was unknown at what age Chase triggered his werewolf curse, or how long he was forced to stay in wolf form before the curse was broken. Through childhood and adolescence, Chase's best friends were Jackson Kenner, Aiden and Oliver. Chase was also close friends with Eve, when they were also younger.

Powers and Abilities[]

Super Strength: Evolved werewolves are stronger than regular werewolves and humans, possessing strength powerful enough to even take on non-Original vampires in human form. This was shown when Jackson was able to beat multiple members of the Strix, and momentary overpower Lucien, a thousand year old vampire, long enough to bite him. They were also shown to be strong enough to face off against Klaus, the Original hybrid, in small groups although they were eventually outmatched. The full moon will also boost their strength and so will intense feelings of anger.
Super Speed: An Evolved werewolf's intensified quickness, agility, reflexes, and endurance makes them faster than any regular werewolves and humans. Jackson was able to quickly surprise Elijah, an Original vampire, with a punch strong enough to knock him down from behind, although Elijah was initially caught off guard and soon overpowered Jackson when he attempted to bite him. Evolved werewolves can use this ability in both their human or werewolf forms.
Super Agility: Evolved werewolves possess superhuman agility. They can move, jump, climb, and run incredibly fast without difficulty or exhaustion.
Super Durability: Evolved werewolves can take far more trauma than humans and non-original vampires can without nearly as much discomfort or injury. They can also exert themselves for longer periods without tiring.
Healing Factor: Evolved werewolves possess superhuman regenerative abilities, meaning that if they are physically injured, their bodies will heal rapidly. Evolved werewolves can heal from grievous of injuries, even in human form, though more slowly in comparison to non-original vampires. They, however, cannot heal from fatal wounds, such as a broken neck.
Super Senses: Evolved werewolves have the extremely keen and heightened senses of smell, sight, taste, hearing and touch inherent in all canines. Because they are supernatural and have powers that excel their wolf counterparts, they can hear, see, and smell better than that of regular canines.
Lycanthrope Enhancement: Evolved werewolves are capable of using their werewolf features to further supplement their powers. As such, they can grow claws from their fingernails and werewolf fangs from their teeth even when they are still in their human forms. Their eyes also change into those of their werewolf form, presumably granting them better eyesight.
Shapeshifting/Transformation Control: Evolved werewolves have the ability to transform into their werewolf forms at will. Most of them avoid transforming at all due to the pain it causes. They can also perform partial transformations, manifesting single features of their werewolf forms. An Evolved werewolf can stay in werewolf form longer than a normal werewolf, who is limited to the peak hours of the full moon unless they have magical assistance, such as from a moonlight ring.
Werewolf Venom: Evolved werewolves and regular werewolves have venom which is fatal to non-original vampires if it is introduced into their system. This is usually accomplished by the werewolf biting a vampire, but it has been demonstrated that werewolf venom can be extracted and used in darts and bullets or laced in drinks.
Full Moon: An Evolved werewolf's strength, speed, agility, and all their powers are evolved and at their peak during a full moon.
Immunity to silver: Evolved werewolves are immune to magic bonded to silver. Weapons made of silver might wound them, but the wound still heals at supernatural rates and will not be fatal to them.

Weaknesses[]

Link to Alpha: Because the source of an Evolved werewolf's power is through the link they share with the two alphas of their pack through the Unification Ceremony, that link can be exploited. This was demonstrated by Dahlia, who was able to curse the entire Evolved Crescent Wolf pack by casting a modified Crescent Curse solely on Hayley and Jackson.
Magic: Evolved werewolves are susceptible to the powers of witchcraft. This is inclusive of mystical objects as well as spells that can speed up or slow down their transformations, or force them to transform on the spot. Siphoners can siphon magic from werewolves as well as the magic of a werewolf bite; this can extend to Evolved werewolves, though never shown.
Mortality: Werewolves can die of old age and share many of the same weaknesses as non-supernatural beings (e.g. suffocation, extreme blood Loss, a broken neck, decapitation, fire, heart extraction, etc.)
Physical Trauma: Minor physical injuries such as gunshots, stab wounds and broken bones will cause an Evolved werewolf pain and will also slow them down. However, this is only temporary, as they will heal completely within minutes.
Wolfsbane: When ingested, wolfsbane causes an Evolved werewolf to become severely weak and feverish. Exposure to their skin will burn them.
First Transformation: Evolved werewolves of the Crescent Wolf pack must undertake their first transformation, despite their ability to control shapeshifting. Klaus explains that this is a rite of passage and cannot be avoided.
