Hunter

The hunter is a highly advanced soldier. In addition to genetic enhancement and biotechnology, they are also all permanently equipped with a PRE (Personal Reality Enhancer), which allows them to detect heat, pulse, and nerve impulses in what they see, meaning they can almost see intent when another is speaking. It also allows them to feel light as a mild warmth (like sunlight, but the heat is based on how bright a light is). The PRE does not function perfectly in extremely bright light; at that point, the hunter can only see heat.  The PRE can be turned on and off by will, allowing for normal sight, as well. In addition to being able to see new things, the PRE also makes the irises react instantly to light changes, whether it (the PRE) is active or not, so a hunter cannot be blinded by quick light change.

PRE Abilities The PRE also gives a form of telekinesis (PREkinesis), with the hunter able to lift up to 300 lbs of objects within 50 feet. They can also fling an object or objects weighing up to 100 pounds with 900 newtons of force, 200 lbs at 700 newtons, and up to 300 at 500 newtons. When used to lift things, PREkinesis can only be maintained for about twenty seconds before the PRE requires a cooldown of 10 seconds. Flinging objects requires 1/10 of a second per pound thrown for cooldown before any lifting or flinging can be done again.

PRE Notes The PRE is internally implanted in the brain, though the eyes are also fitted with special contact lenses. These can be seen clearly if one looks closely while the PRE is active; the irises appear to rotate and emit a faint glow in whatever color they happen to be. If viewed in the dark with light irises or in the light with dark irises and the hunter moves, it causes a trailing effect. There is also a fitted glove to control the PREkinesis, but there is nothing remarkable about its appearance. The PREkinesis can still be used without the glove, but it instead lifts things in a circle around the hunter and flinging shoots them outward.

Genetic Enhancement The hunter's genes have been enhanced significantly, making them highly attractive and immune to almost every disease and illness. They can also take quite a beating (damage is reduced by 33%).

Biotechnology The hunter's biotech gives them regeneration, with flesh wounds healing in seconds and lost limbs growing back and fully functional within the hour. They also have really high strength. These abilities, however, cannot be used in magnetic areas or for a minute after a giant EMP.

Weapon Training The hunter is perfectly capable of using any weapon, though they tend to specialize in either sniper rifles, assault rifles, and tactical machine pistols. Occasionally, a hunter will use a heavy pistol, but this is fairly uncommon.
