-Huntdown must abide by his kind's honor code at all times when it comes to combat. If he breaks any rules, he'll be dubbed a "Bad Blood", shunned by the rest of his kind and attacked on sight.
Trivia:
-Among the rest of his kind, Huntdown is known as "A'dqui-T'au The Ascended", as the Yautja species worship the Sigmatrix like a god and they believe that Huntdown's addition to the Sigmatrix means he has ascended to the realm of the gods and gained immortality, which is the absolute highest honor in their society.
--If he were to ever be labeled as a Bad Blood, Yautja society could potentially collapse as a result, as it would throw their entire belief system out of whack.
-The green symbol upon Huntdown's mask signifies among other Yautja that he was born and bred specifically for killing Predaliens (Yautja/Xenomorph Hybrids).
-In the 77 Universe, Huntdown is the Predator that participated in the events of Mortal Kombat XL. This explains why he has access to magic as a primary ability and Shinnok's Amulet in his equipment.
-Huntdown's DNA was scanned off Dark, the Predator player character from the 2010 Aliens Vs. Predator video game.
-The Yautja Honor Code is somewhat flexible, but the only major rules that must be followed at all times are the following:
--1: When hunting, the hunter must be sure that his prey is considered game and lawful to kill. Worthy game must fill the following criteria: Can defend itself and/or is able to kill the hunter himself, of age (killing children and the elderly is considered highly dishonorable), not linked to other lives (so that removing the prey will not doom another, e.g. pregnant women), and not weakened by diseases. This excludes self-defense.
--2: Killing prey when using less equipment is considered a greater prize, and hunters should typically give their prey a fighting chance, for honor's sake. If the prey demands close-combat, the hunter is to fight to their prey's standards, and should minimize use of their Plasmacaster or other projectile weapons.
--3: Should the hunter fail in one's quest, he should take his own life to retain his honor than to live in shame. However, some cowards prefer to live in obscurity rather than die. This is considered to be dishonorable and suicide is then "assisted" by an Enforcer. Those that defeated you in a fair hunt, or who are the victors in a deadlier hunt, should be considered an equal and must be shown respect.
--And 4: Those who have done no harm should have no harm done to them. Likewise, killing prey who is unarmed is a grave insult.
---There are more rules than that, but those four the the main ones to worry about. The rest only cover how to treat fellow hunters and how not to steal kills.
