"I abjure you. I see you no longer. I hunt with you no longer. I share flesh with you no longer."

―Alcide to Debbie

Alcide Herveaux is a major character in the third, fourth, fifth, sixth seasons. He is played by starring cast member Joe Manganiello and debuts in "It Hurts Me Too". He is also played in flashbacks by co-star Blake Michael in the episode "Everybody Wants to Rule the World". He appears in The Southern Vampire Mysteries/Sookie Stackhouse Novels by author Charlaine Harris that True Blood is based upon. He is a were (a full blooded werewolf) who owns a surveying company with his father in Shreveport, LA. Alcide is depicted as a tall man with green eyes, and thick, tousled black hair. He has a younger sister named Janice.

Personality

Alcide is a loyal, decent man who came from a poor family that worked hard to have the wealth they achieved. He never flaunted his weath, and he has never acted superiorly towards Sookie – in fact even Alcide’s sister Janice was sincerely kind and lovely with her. He has respect, and has always cares for any of his friend's safety. Alcide always manages to keep a “low profile”. He's also quick to take people under his wing, and he can't resist a cry for help. Alcide was raised in a Were society that highly appreciates and respects women, which made him much more vulnerable to Debbie’s manipulation. Alcide was also a victim of his father’s pack betrayal. His family also owed some debt to the vamps, which ultimately placed him in the position of being forced by Eric to take care of Sookie in Jackson. Yet even when they were both very attracted to each other and he perceived that Eric had an interest in her, Alcide never took advantage of it. In fact, he is the only important man in Sookie’s life who hasn’t had sex with her. Though even though he proclaimed his love to Sookie, Sookie never trusted him enough to tell him the truth about Debbie’s death. Alcide has grown through his painful experiences from being a kind of naive man into a strong and mature packmaster – a position he never even aspired to have in the first place. Like all werewolves, when he's angry, he actually growls, very canine.

Powers & Abilities

Alcide while in wolf form.

Alcide is a Werewolf. He seems to be more powerful than an average 

Human or a Werewolf, but weaker than a Vampire of a moderate age. A testament of his strength is his fight with Marcus Bozeman, where he was able to kill him with one blow. In his wolf form his fur is white, slightly brownish, and his eyes are orange. He displayed superhuman speed to catch up with Tara in Human form. ("I Got a Right to Sing the Blues") Werewolves appear to have heightened senses while in Human form, Alcide tracked down Sookie with Debbie. ("Cold Grey Light of Dawn")
