The Super Predator Clan were a group of Super Predators who were in conflict with the more traditional Jungle Hunter Clan. The Super Predator Clan were possibly exiled Bad Bloods. They operated a Game Preserve Planet and were known for abducting lifeforms from other worlds and transporting them to the planet so that they could hunt them.
History[]
Conflict with rival clan[]
The Super Predator Clan was engaged in an apparently long-running conflict with the Jungle Hunter Clan for unknown reasons; Noland described the rivalry as some kind of blood feud.
Hunting Methods[]
Unlike their Jungle Hunter cousins, Super Predators care not for honor or fairness, they seek only the thrill of the kill[citation needed] and to improve themselves by testing themselves against the most dangerous individuals of the respective species that the Predators kidnap them from. Super Predators use traps and Hell-Hounds, and by kidnapping their prey, they give themselves a home-field advantage.
Known members[]
The Super Predator Clan solely consisted of three known members.
Berserker[]
A young prodigy,[1] Berserker would depart from his clan and form his own as leader over his two subordinates. He was notably a dishonorable hunter, and would use several underhanded tactics when fighting his prey. He was eventually killed by Royce.
Tracker[]
The Tracker Predator would utilize Hell-Hounds to flush out prey. He was killed by Nikolai Fedorov
Falconer[]
The Falconer Predator possessed a fascination with technology and developed his own unorthodox hunting tool - the Falcon. Falconer died in a one-on-one duel against Hanzo.
Behind the Scenes[]
- Robert Rodrigeuz stated that they are outcast Yautja and it is possible that they have been sent to the game reserve as their punishment. Because of this, they may be hated by other Yautja society. It is also possible that they may be planning a clan war on another clan. The members of the other clan are based on the design of the original Jungle Hunter.[citation needed]
Trivia[]
- In the preview, the director said that two tribes (The Mainstream Predators and Super Predators) are having a Clan War for a particular reason.[citation needed]
- In the sneak peek, more than three lasersights were seen which at the time implied there are more Super Predators than just the three in the movie, it was revealed to be nothing more than promotional shot.
- Unlike other Predators, it was said in the script that they bleed black blood (It has been confirmed in the film that they bleed green blood).[citation needed]
- Ronald Noland mentioned that when the Predators return from a hunt, they would come back different. This is because every time a Yautja would go on a hunt, they would try to experiment on themselves to make them stronger and more efficient hunters.[citation needed]
- Unlike other Predators, who hunt for honor and for trophies, in the script the Super Predator's hunt for DNA to become more powerful hunters. This was later dropped from the film, but they still hunt dangerous prey to improve themselves.[citation needed]
- The idea of Predators hunting for DNA to improve themselves would later be reused as a plot point for The Predator.
- In the script, Berserker or "Mr. Black" has spikes all over his armor and even on his dreadlocks (these were removed as well).
- Noland said that Super Predator hunting parties always come in threes. This idea was most likely adapted from the Alien vs. Predator film, where Scar, Celtic, and Chopper were a hunting party consisting of three members.
