History

The Predator race is one of the most aggresive in the universe. They are extreme hunters and ruthless killers. Batman and Superman have both met up with these savage beings. One altercation almost culminated in the Dark Knight's death as well as some hefty damage to the Batmobile. Superman found a Predator in the South American jungle where a virus from the Predator's ship weakened Superman enough for the Predator to pose a serious threat. The Predators are forever locked in combat with the Aliens who have also run into the Green Lantern. Predator weapons are all highly advanced. These incluse the wrist blades, Maul, Naginata, combat staff, glaive, smart disc, plasma caster, wrist plasma caster, net gun, spear gun, plasma scythe, cerimonial dagger, shuriken, stealth suit, hydra electro rockets, high focusing heat emitting caster, and micro nuclear self destrution unit. The predators themselves see in infa-red light and their helmets grant electro, micro, ultraviolet, and low light vision modes. The predators are super humanly strong as all body weight is muscle and very little fat. They are a lot tougher in that they can take multiple shotgun rounds and still live.
