The Alpha Borderwalker, formerly known as Metzlicihuatl, was the first of its species. She was featured in the tie-in novel, Supernatural: Coyote's Kiss.

History

Before she was turned into the first Borderwalker, she was a human by the name Metzlicihuatl. She was a midwife's daughter and according to Huehuecoyotl, she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Once the god tired of her, she refused, literally, to let go of him. She tried to cross the rift between the human and deity realms along with him and was changed into a monstrous creature that would be called a Borderwalker.

Physical Appearance

She had wide-set, mesmerizing espresso eyes behind heavy black lashes. Impossibly lush mouth. Regal cheekbones. Flawless without a hint of make-up. She appeared nude, but the soft, brown human skin below her collarbones graduated into sleek, mottled scales like a rattlesnake. Her fingers ended in claws.

Powers and Abilities

Being the first of her kind, she shares many of their powers, but at an enhanced level.

• Portal Creation - Borderwalkers have the power to transport people and objects between worlds.
• Superhuman Strength - Able to tear apart a large number of people with ease.
• Shapeshifting - Can take on various monstrous forms like tarantulas or a scorpion with a thousand tails or a vulture with a skull for a face.
• Curing - The Alpha Borderwalker can create and also revert a borderwalker. Her blood (in the form of white smoke) could revert a borderwalker back to human.

Weaknesses

• Obsidian Weapons - Weapons made of obsidian rather than silver are more effective against borderwalkers.
  • Itztlitlantl - An ancient leaf shaped obsidian knife. Can, without a doubt, eliminate a borderwalker.
• Marigold Flowers - Marigold flowers offer protection against them.
• Spells - Regular borderwalkers could be bound by certain spells, but it was never attempted on her.

Trivia

• She could be summoned by using a special flute belonging to Huehuecoyotl. She would assume that he was calling for her. According to the god, she was so madly in love with him, she would cross oceans to be with him.
• She was an unique/peculiar Alpha in more than one way.
  • She is the only known Alpha, in the Supernatural franchise, not created by Eve.
  • She is the only known female Alpha in the Supernatural franchise.
