Predator

Predator's weapons

Wrist Blades

Razor-sharp serrated blades worn on a wrist gauntlet, typically in pairs, used for close combat and the ritualistic mutilation of prey.

Scimitar

Essentially an enlarged singular Wrist Blade worn on the forearm.

Plasma Caster

A ranged weapon capable of directing bolts of high-energy plasma at distant targets that is worn on the shoulder. Generally aimed through the Predator's Bio-Mask, although there are exceptions.

Plasma Cannon

A hand-held version of the Plasma Caster.

Spear Gun

A projectile weapon that fires small metal spears, comparable to a traditional projectile firearm or crossbow.

Combi-Stick

A retractable spear that can be used either in hand-to-hand combat or as a thrown weapon.

Glaive

Similar to the Combi-Stick, this combat staff is fitted with a sizeable blade at each end, designed to slice through prey.

Maul

A heavy bladed weapon with a perpendicular handle, an arrangement similar to a police officer's nightstick.

Net Launcher

A handheld device capable of firing a wire net with enough force to pin a target to a wall. The net also features an automatic tightening mechanism designed to cause grievous wounds to the enclosed target.

Smart-Disc

A self-guiding discus-like cutting device.

Shuriken

Similar to the Smart-Disc, except considerably larger and fitted with several long, fan-like blades around its circumference.

Whip

A segmented bull whip capable of slicing targets in half with enough force.

Mines

Predators utilize a variety of mines with varying trigger mechanisms and detonation effects in their Hunts.

Predator's equipment

Cloaking Device

Light-bending adaptive camouflage allowing Predators a form of invisibility, or at least translucence, rendering them incredibly difficult to spot. The invisibility effect has been known to be shorted out through contact with water or if the arm gauntlet is damaged, and it is susceptible to the effects of an electro-magnetic pulse, at least temporarily. The effects of the device have also been known to fail as a result of direct assaults on the Predator's body, be it with ranged weaponry or physical attacks. This device is rendered useless during Xenomorph Hunts owing to the Xenomorph's ability to "see" through its cloaking effects.

Bio-Mask

The Predator's mask contains systems to enhance its thermal vision and provide additional vision modes in other electromagnetic spectra, ranging from night vision to ultraviolet and even vibration scanning. It also allows for Vocal Mimicry and the Language Translator, and records anything the Predator sees and hears so that it may be reviewed at a later date.

Wrist Gauntlet

Includes the Predator's Sat-Com and sometimes a Plasma Bolt or Power Punch Glove. Also incorporates touch-pad technology to control a Predator's Cloaking Device, Self-Destruct Device, and even remotely pilot Predator vessels.

Medi-Kit

Predator hunters carry field medical equipment including solvents capable of cauterizing and healing wounds and various serums and other medical devices.
