The Hunter is a multiplayer character in Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. His weapon is the switchblade. Despite his similarity to the Assassins, the Hunter is, as all other multiplayer characters in Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, a Templar. Ubisoft states that he will also make an appearance in the single-player mode of Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, along with other multiplayer characters.
The Hunter grabs his target from behind and swiftly maneuvers his hands around their neck. He then clutches the chin and neck, roughly pulling the head at a 90 degree angle and breaking the neck bone. The target then falls dead to the ground.
The Plunge of Death:
The Hunter leaps from a rooftop above, onto the target, forcing them to the ground and plunging the blade into their skull. The target dies instantly.
A mysterious beige-robed identical character, previously nicknamed "The Caramel Hunter," has been spotted in several multiplayer images. It has been thought by some to be a female Hunter. Very little is known about this character, and they may not even exist when Assassin's Creed Brotherhood launches.
A recent image from IGN (right) appears to confirm the inclusion of a female hunter, as well as variations of other characters.
