Predator-AlienIn 1987 we were introduced to the Predator Alien. This alien was a little different than what we typically see in movies. It was strong, agile, intelligent and had some human characteristics. The movie was simply called Predator. It is in the deep jungles of South America where a Predator and a group of special forces from America come in contact with each other. What we learn later is this was not the first time a Predator had come in contact with a human. Through a series of hunted and be hunted, the Predator starts to kill off the men one by one. In the end there is only one American left who has enough intelligence to take on the Predator.

Predators are not very attractive creatures. They are a mix between a reptilian and amphibian. Their heads are rather large with tentacle like appendages that hang from their skull. They are much larger then an average human. Their size, plus strength makes them great hunters of all species. Their bodies are capable of withstanding an immense amount of trauma. Radiation exposure that would normally kill an adult human barely phases a Predator. when injured during a fight, they can easily recover. Bullets and explosives do little damage to them. They can withstand any temperature, yet prefer to be in warmer climates. There is not much documented concerning their feeding habits, yet the belief is  they feast off the flesh of their kill.  This does not include human flesh. The human is not considered to be prey. Predators choose to use humans in different ways.

Predators are great hunters. They travel the universe searching for extreme species to hunt. They tend to hunt only prey that provides them a challenge. Their favorite prey is the Alien from the movie “Alien”. Aliens are one of the most deadliest prey for the Predator. It matches it in both strength and agility. Yet the Alien does not prove to be as intelligent. Where the Alien only hunts to kill, the Predator hunts for sport. To prove a Predators manhood, he must go out to battle groups of Aliens. If he returns to his ship alive, then he has passed the test and reaches manhood. When a Predator makes a kill, he will skin the creature and keep the head as a trophy. Spacecrafts are normally adorn with the heads of their kill.

Humans were never the Predators enemy. During Egyptian times, Predators were look to as Gods. They taught the Egyptians how to build great pyramids and master many new technologies. The sacrifice of a group of Egyptians, was sufficient to stay in their good graces. The sacrifice was the act of giving birth to an Alien. The Aliens were farmed for game hunting. Unfortunately for the Egyptians, the Predator’s ceremonies of manhood, needed live Aliens. Aliens can only be born by using a host as a incubator. The host often dies from massive trauma from the stomach bursting during birth.

Predators carry an arsenal of weapons. They are most deadly at night where their infrared vision is most lethal. They carry with them a unique cloaking device that allows them to travel without being seen. They carry with them lasers, rocket like devices, metal blades and nuclear explosives. The blades they carry are extremely sharp, made from elements not found here on earth. When a Predator has been injured to the point where death may take him, he has the option of killing himself and his adversary. He does this by unleashing a small nuclear explosive from its wrists. The blast kills both Predator and anyone around him. Predators value life, yet also value the honor of death through battle.
