Hunter<ref name="II2.4">Flare 2.4</ref> is a recently triggered cape with control issues. She would later become the Titan Arachne.

Personality

Her pre-Amy character is unknown. After Amy's alteration she is often manic with noticeable shard-influences, such as careless use of power and preoccupation with masks.<ref name="II16.y">Interlude 16.y II</ref>

After becoming a Titan, she was highly aggressive, attacking everybody in her vicinity in bouts of manic joy.<ref name="funtimes"/>

Relationships

Has a friend named Sam<ref name="II2.3"/>, who asked Victoria Dallon for help when Hunter triggered.<ref name="II2.2"/>

Amy maintained some imprinted loyalty in Hunter, rationalizing it as a necessity to work with her.

The Red Queen's entourage had a very mixed influence on Hunter.<ref name="II16.z">Interlude 16.z II</ref>

Appearance

Delicate-built blonde. Amy finds her similar to Victoria.<ref>The girl was beautiful, blonde, more slight than Victoria had been at that age, but with some of the same traits. Poised with back straight, even though her hands were trembling as they rested on top of Amy’s own. In another reality, she could have been Victoria’s sister, more inclined to ballet than any competitive sport. Amy could sense the girl’s toes, the damage her feet had taken, months ago, before the girl’s emergent power had spoiled things. Ballet could be hard on the body. Even months after abandoning the sport, Hunter’s muscle tone was strong, her heartbeat confident. Her proprioception was top notch. - Excerpt from Interlude 16.y II</ref>

As Titan, her body consist of the mix of her power-effects and dimensional tears. As other titans she lack facial features,<ref name="funtimes">Hunter didn’t respond. She only laughed, incessantly laughed, as she brought razor lines spearing down from the sky and up from the ground with enough force to crack bones harder than steel. Her body seemed to be made up of those lines and cracks in reality.
[...]
She had no eyes; only a blindfold of wires and cracks in reality. - Excerpt from Sundown 17.z</ref> but seems to retain more humanoid, less grotesque shape.

Abilities and Powers

Hunter produces a mass of thin black wires within thirty feet around herself, that cuts everything in its way.

Initially her power was completely uncontrollable. Amy was able to make it more restrained, but with ensuing personality alteration it made little difference.<ref name="II16.y"/>

Hunter's power permanently maintained her heightened psychological state, she did not get mentally tired.<ref name="II16.z">Hunter wasn’t one of those people. In this state, she had no recharge or need to recharge, drawing energy from a bottomless well. It made her hard to deal with, because they had to take shifts to keep an eye on her. - Excerpt from Interlude 16.z II</ref>

As a Titan, she can produce razor wire within a quarter mile of herself, which scales up over time and is not Manton limited.<ref>“She produces razor wire within a quarter-mile of herself, scaling up over time, and seems to ignore the Manton limit. The second most aggressive titan we’re dealing with, but easily distracted.” - Excerpt from Radiation 18.2</ref> Unlike the majority of titans she is quite agile.<ref>She lunged forward, gripping her own razor wires and leaping between them as a monkey might leap from branch to branch. Buildings groaned and tipped over as the wires that extended into them bore her full weight, but she didn’t touch ground. - Excerpt from Sundown 17.z</ref>

History

Early-Ward

Triggered with an uncontrolled, messy power and nowhere to go. Her friend found Victoria Dallon at the hospital and asked for help. She put him in contact with Tempera and the Wardens, and asked Jessica Yamada to help smooth her passage.<ref name="II2.2">Flare 2.2</ref><ref name="II2.3">Flare 2.3</ref> Ended up at the new parahuman asylum in Europe.<ref name="II14.6_asylum">“I know Hunter,” I said. I was pretty sure, anyway. After the community center attack, before Breakthrough, I’d worked with Ms. Yamada to get Hunter sent to the Asylum-like spot in Europe. - Excerpt from Breaking 14.6</ref>

Post-Time Bubble Pop

Traveled to Shin to be treated by Amy Claire Lavere, who made a mistake that altered Hunter's personality.<ref name="II14.6_damage">“What’s the damage?” I asked, my neck stiff from tension.

Amy answered, eyes downcast. “Altered personality, memories not connecting. She came over with a friend and he said she was different after. There was a gap and the passenger wedged itself in there.”

“When the passenger butts in, it saves over your work, and the the undo button on the metaphysical keyboard stops working,” Chris said. - Excerpt from Breaking 14.6</ref>

Post-Attack on Teacher

Amy continued failing to subdue the power.<ref name="II16.y"/>

When the ice broke due to the broken triggering of Fume Hood, Hunter was one of many capes to also broken trigger and become a Titan. She immediately began attacking everybody around her, intentionally targeting high powered capes. Titan Arachne was being stalled by Shin Defense Initiative.<ref>Sundown 17.z</ref>
