Legend Concept: Huntsman (Updated August 2022)

Codename: Huntsman

Background: When asked why he joined the games, he replied with, "Because Artur has a debt to pay." Huntsman is a skilled tracker that is followed by his trusty robotic prowler named CeCe. Huntsman's real voice is unknown; he communicates via a synthetic voice box.

Appearance: Huntsman is a somewhat tall man wearing something similar to a militarized super suit from head to toe. A tiny set of tubes can be seen of the right side of his neck that glow purple. His suit is also adorned with cultural accessories. His left arm is adorned with a gauntlet and a knife sticking out of it.

Lore:

Spoiler

The Huntsman's real name is unknown. What is known is that Artur is his brother, and Bloodhound is his child. Before Bloodhound was born Artur, the Huntsman, and Bloodhound's mother lived peacefully in the village, until a corporation showed up hoping to research the surrounding area, and wanted a local's help. Both Artur and the Huntsman refused. Later that year, Bloodhound was born at the cost of the mother's life. Overcome with grief, the Huntsman was met by the corporation again. The corporation promised to reunite the Huntsman with his wife using a technology based on parallel worlds that would be completed in several years (Wraith’s portals). In return, the Huntsman would help the corporation with their research. Agreeing, the Huntsman left the village and abandoned his child. The Huntsman became corrupted by technology and the potential of reviving his deceased wife. Soon the corporation began mining the whole area, destroying nature and ancient sites that the Huntsman's village held dear. When Artur found out that one of mining sites would be a respected burial ground, Artur chose to confront the Huntsman. The two fought to the death with Artur winning and Huntsman’s throat being slashed open. When the mining crew found the Huntsman, he was bloody and frostbitten. Huntsman was was rushed to a medical center off planet where he could receive better aid. Soon after the explosion occurred and the mining facilities were shut down.
