Background

The Predator is from an alien species called the Yautja. It travels from planet to planet hunting apex predators for trophies. The Predator's suit allows it to camouflage itself and is also equipped with a device that causes a large explosion.


During the events of Predator (1987) played by Kevin Peter Hall

The Predator comes to Earth and hunts and kills Jim Hopper's Special Forces team. When Dutch and his team arrive in the jungle, it begins to follow and study them. After the team destroys the guerrilla base, the Predator surveys the base and begins to mimic the voices of the team. It first kills Hawkins by slashing him to death. Next it kills Blain by shooting him with a projectile to the stomach, before killing Mac and Dillon in quick succession. It kills Billy in one on one combat and then shoots Poncho with a laser to the head. It then hunts Dutch. It loses him but hears him call out to it in the night. It goes to the noise and sees a large bonfire and is hit with an arrow carrying gunpowder, damaging its camouflage. After being hit by another explosive arrow, the Predator tracks Dutch down and after he loses his camouflage it removes its mask and main weapons and begins to beat Dutch. It continues to beat him until he crawls into an alcove. He calls the Predator to him, but when it notices a trap, it circles around. Dutch then kicks loose a rope, dropping a large log onto the Predator. Dutch comes up to the Predator to finish it off and after he asks what it is, the Predator mimics the question. It then initiates its explosive device and starts to laugh like Billy, before exploding.
