An alternate's Persona: The Alternates are malevolent and mysterious humanoid beings with the ability to shapeshift, which they use to mimic human beings. Their “true” form appears as a vaguely humanoid silhouette with white eyes. They use this mimicry to blend in with normal humans while they hunt down the person whose form they have copied so they can kill them. Once they have found and cornered their victim, Alternates will use psychological warfare to convince that person to commit suicide- their methods of doing so are unclear thus far, but it’s implied that by speaking to their victims in a certain tone or about certain topics, Alternates can inflict Metaphysical Awareness Disorder on them, driving their targets insane. They have also been shown to use brute force to kill as well.

Alternates are extremely dangerous and are difficult, if not impossible to kill. Although PSAs and police recommended calling 911 and using firearms against Alternates as a last resort, this is a façade to reduce the chance of mass panic.
