Predator: “Scar Face”
(Video game Predator)

This is one of the strongest yautja known to man. He is out to regain his honor and take out some hate on the Boriga family for stealing Predator tech and using it against them.With vengance and honor in his heart, he stopped at nothing to destroy an international powerful Crime Empire known as the Borgia Family(1933)/Borgia Industries(2033). Part of the legendary Dark Blade Clan, one of the most feared,respected, and mysterious Clans ever, he survived a dishonorable death. He soon was exiled to a remote planet where he fought to surivive agianst dangerous alien creatures for 100 years.
After 100 years, the Elder returns for him, saying that to restor his honnor, he must go back to his hunting ground(New Way City) now known as Neonopolis, to stop the Humans which have been using the technology that he left behind on Earth to kill other Predators and to wage mob warfare. The warring mob factions all pay tribute to Lucretia Borgia, daughter of Hunter and grandaughter of Bruno.

Scarface must battle the mob in order to recover the Predator technology. He soon rescues other captured, young teenage predators in the Borgia base. But he meets what every Predator fears, warrior turned “Bad Blood” Predators who are dishonnorable murders, alerted and mind controlled by Borgia Industries. The trio were members of the Dark Blade Clan and friends of Scarface at one point in time.
The trio of Bad Bloods consist of Swift Knife(Speed), Stone Heart(Muscle), and Long Spear(Sniper). Angered, Scar Face stops thier attacks and kills them, erasing thier dishonnor from Earth, since the DarkBlade Clan are strict about being captuared and are rarley seen by anyone. How it all began was a simple hunt, after killing Bruno Borgia, he curiously examined Bruno’s wife Isabella, who shot the Predator in the eye in self-defense, causing his blood to splatter on her and her baby son Hunter. Wounded, he ran away, dropping his tech and weapons. Eventually it is revealed that MOTHER, the computer controlling New Way City in 2030, is actually Isabella, who has been kept alive since 1930 by Scarface’s blood. Her son Hunter has gone through genetic manipulation and has become a hybrid of human and Predator. After killing Isabella, a final battle takes place between Scarface and Hunter, with Scarface taking Hunter’s head as a trophy. Scarface is then recovered by his clan and honor is restored.

He comes equipped with new traits of Predator tech and power, like the molecular Darkblade Clan armor design that can be swapped in or out to block agianst diffrent types of damage like acid,explosion, and ice attacks. His armor also absorbs plasma blasts and electricity, making him stronger, more energy powered, and ferocieous. A variety of weapons are used in the game, falling into the categories of melee and ranged weapons. A number of the weapons reflect those used in the Predator and Alien vs. Predator films, though others are new, like the Glaive and Maul.
While the Combistick is a weapon agianst multiple attackers, the Glaive and Maul does armor slicing, and tearing damage agianst enemies, while the Combistick does a type of “crowd control” damage which involves blunt damage which breaks bones and causes interal damage. But it has little tearing power because of the barbed tips at each end. His mask has visions new to others like Nero and Tech vision. Thermal scans for weaknesses in enemy armor, Nero vision scans for identification of the prey, and Tech vision scans the technology he uses and must combat, scanning to see how threating it is and how to defeat it.
