Hunter Gen One Breed, Order member. Mate of Corinne Bishop. Born August 8, 1956, Hunter was conceived and raised in a covert laboratory environment under the control of Dragos. Given no name at birth, like the rest of his lab-bred a.s.sa.s.sin brothers, this lethal Breed male answers to the name of the role he was created to fill: Hunter. After his rearing in Dragos's labs, Hunter's home base was a meager farmhouse in Vermont, where he lived in an unfurnished, bare-floored cellar, tended by a Minion handler a.s.signed to him since birth. Like all others raised to be Dragos's personal army of a.s.sa.s.sins, Hunter had been fitted from childhood with a black electronic collar that contained an ultraviolet light source. This UV collar, if tampered with or triggered remotely by Dragos, would detonate and kill him instantly.
Hunter has a special affection for Mira, who, as a child, unwittingly prevented him from carrying out one of his a.s.sa.s.sination missions (see Sergei Yakut) when he looked into the young seer's gaze and saw the girl would one day spare his life. She made good on that vision later, during the timeline of Veil of Midnight, and because of her, Hunter joined the Order's fight against Dragos. Hunter was a virgin until he met and became involved with Corinne Bishop while charged with escorting her to her family's Darkhaven in Detroit. Hunter and Corinne are now parents to her son, Nathan, also a Gen One trained a.s.sa.s.sin.
