Predator is my all time favorite characters...I believe that if people followed the Predator Code of Conduct - we would all be much better off!!! A typical Yautja's (Predator) Homeward is Yautja Prime. They are 7'+ tall, 520 + lbs., Capable hunters, with advanced technology and weaponry, long dreadlocks, mandibles. Classic (Jungle Hunter) is a Yautja Prime. NO PIN LIMITS | See more about Xenomorph, Alien vs predator and Predator helmet.
Continuing worldbuilding. While we know that Predators are often presented in their hunting armor and gear, I like to see it as a practical set much like our modern human combat armor is. It’s light, it’s tough, it’s sleek, and does what it needs to do. But, back in Yautja Prime, we’ve allowed their natural culture and social structures to rise based on what we do know of canon lore so far. Keep in mind that no major species’ civilizations are the same across its entire planet and set in stone. Much like we find VAST diversity in human culture depending on location, social structures, history, religions, mythos, etc… We have to allow Yautja the same courtesy. Meaning that some areas of Yautja Prime may reflect one aspect of their culture more strongly, others may favor another. Some may be more down to earth and worldly, others more technologically inclined and modern. Blood, Hunt, and Honor are the canopy of a very old tree rooted by long, branching roots. Above are the Honor Guard for the Council of Matriarchs, and the Council of Elders. The Matriarchs tend to mostly on-world matters, the Elders to off-world matters. I designed the Honor Guard to reflect Native Middle and South American culture as a quiet nod to the original Alien versus Predator 2004 movie. We hope you enjoy!
It’s clear that yautja hair/dreadlocks/tresses is not hair in the manner we know our own hair and animal pelt to be. Various visual media depicts them as being fleshy, with their own weight, and feed venously - that’s why they bleed when severed. A yautja skull or a yautja with its tresses removed will show base-like protrusions around the sides and back of the skull where these fleshy lengths grow from. They do not seem to be able to regrow once removed from the base, but whether a severed length cut at its half can regrow from the split end is still unconfirmed. It is likely that, as a growing appendage of sorts, it can. We know, from various novel sources, that yautja use their tresses as extra sensory organs that further contribute to their prowess. The definite role of these sensories are unclear. We can speculate that they may be able to pick up temperature, air pressure, and movement. I also headcanon that when yautja are secreting their oily musk, the musk coats the tresses and when their move or shake their heads the tresses help disperse that musk into the air better. Musk is often use as a communication aid, signalling aggression, lust/estrus, and other physical and emotional states of the yautja, so the easier this musk can waft into the air and picked up by others, the better. As far as what material these tresses are made of? Difficult to tell. We know they are organic, they bleed when cut or severed, come with a variety of patterns and colors, and even grey out at elder years. As an interesting side note, it looks like the longer the tresses the more attractive a yautja is to another. This detail was mentioned in Alien versus Predator: Hunter’s Planet, from Machiko Noguchi, when she had to cut off her own hair to escape the grasp of an Alien Queen, mentioning she would look less attractive to the Hunters. We can further speculate that tresses aren’t just for sensory, but for show as well. It’s possible that yautja seeking a partner will be looking at a potential other’s tresses as a display of the individual’s health. The longer, meatier, and strong colored it is, the more likely that individual is in their prime. The quill-like hairs on the rest of their bodies is likely made of the same material, but that would be completely speculative at this point. There are currently no canon sources as to what these hair-like quills are made of or what their functions are. These beards/facial hair is a nod to these quill-like growths that are seen on their bodies. I see the facial ones as being less coarse, more akin to barbel on catfish rather than true tresses. Meaning they’re are lengths of skin growth or cartilaginous. I do like to concept that both males AND females can grow these ‘beards’ in their old age, but not all of them do.
Exploring the idea that female and male Predator/yautja have little sexual dimorphism, as sourced from various media (written and visual). I like the concept that females only really develop breasts when they are nursing, and once the infant weans her body resorts back to a more flat-chest state. There are canon female predators with breasts, such as Sister Midnight, the female Predator option in the game “Hunting Grounds”, and some sparse mentions throughout the books, but I take much greater inspiration in Big Momma. I remember, long ago, getting a copy of this comic and not realizing the Predator was a female until it was mentioned and even then I had to reread it several times to ensure it wasn’t a typo or mis-translation (this was back in Spain, so the copy was in spanish). The book “Avp: Prey” also mentions female yautja as not that different from males aside from greater size and strength. That’s not to say that females with breasts are wrong. We only have to look at ourselves, humans, to see the vast variety of different body types. No gender fits in a perfect physical descriptor that encompasses everyone. It’s very likely that Yautja Prime has similar diversity. Females may be larger and flat-chested for the most part, but some can be leaner and smaller, some can develop permanent breast tissue, or softer features, etc. On its opposite spectrum there could be females that are near indistinguishable from their male counterparts aside from their reproductive organs. Breasts are not the definite characterization of femininity and needs to be normalized more.
Read The first fight... from the story Life With A Yautja (Yautja x Oc) by DeathSavage1231 with 3,321 reads. swearing, yautja, predator. Amari Pov: A Fe...
These two are sentries of,the Koroth'Ul. The Koroth'Ul are a large tribe that remain on Yautja Prime and hold a vast territory they viciously defend. They also attack and bully out smaller tribes when they want more resources. They are not Hunters, for the most part, preferring to flex their martial prowess locally. Their unique vertebrae head-crest is a trademark of the tribe members, as they WANT to stand out and be distinctive, and be the center of the fighting attention in a living embodiment of 'fuck around and find out'. Looks like they ran into an unfortunate group of trespassers in their territory. Tsk!
