| “That one hurt, didn't it? C'mon, I wanna see you go crazy on me!” |
| — Huntsman[src] |
Huntsman was a Spider Demon that worked for the Spider Queen.
History[]
Revenge of the Spider Queen[]
The Spider Queen ordered Huntsman and Strong Spider to track down MK and his team. They eventually threw a tracking device to the Dronecopter so they could know where they were going. Later on, they eventually arrived at the Celestial Realm to capture MK's team. However, they failed when MK's team and Red Son escaped.
Despite this, Huntsman and Strong Spider eventually got back to the city and participated in the final battle against MK's team, but were stopped when the Demon Bull King briefly joined MK's team, getting blown away by him into the sky.
Sleep Bug[]
Huntsman appears watching along with Strong Spider as the Spider Queen has a rage outburst around the Silken Web Cave, both seemingly wary of her. He listens to Lady Bone Demon before he is pushed away by Syntax's mechanical spider leg, he glares on the corner of the scebe at him for this. Huntsmana and Strong Spider stay silent during Syntax explanation of The Cloud, momentarily getting scared by Syntax's hologram. Syntax taunts him about his tracking abilities and Huntsman just glares at him while growling.
After a while, Huntsman was at the Silken Web Cave sleeping, waking up at Syntax's return. He gets blown off by the Skeleton Key opening the Cloud's artifact, later to be knocked out.
Dumpling Destruction[]
Huntsman attempts to enter the Shuilian Cave as he was sent to look for the demon-revealing mirror, but failed, as only Monkey King and MK can open the barrier. However, Huntsman later manages to get inside due to Tang and MK getting through it.
While he was searching for the mirror, MK discovers Huntsman. Huntsman charges at him, but goes straight for the mirror before MK stops him, which results on a fight. Huntsman manages to lock MK in place before he informs him that the results of the dumpling hitting Megapolis would affect him too, Tang then uses a specialized sword on him. Huntsman decides then to have a truce with MK and simply escape with the demon-revealing mirror.
Later on the Silken Web Cave, Huntsman delivers the mirror to the Spider Queen (not without taunting Syntax), while he's presenting it to his queen, he catches a glimpse of Lady Bone Demon's true form, which renders him speechless out of fear as she takes the mirror from him.
To Catch a Leaf[]
Huntsman was sent by Lady Bone Demon to retrieve the crimson jimson weed at the same time as Sandy goes to get it to treat MK’s cursed hiccups. At first arrival he notices Sandy’s footprints -and apparently his smell- and decides to follow them, along the way he encounters the marks Sandy left to guide himself through the Mystic Jungle of the Emerald Lynx, and sabotages them.
Once Sandy founds the crimson jimson weed, Huntsman makes himself known and attacks Sandy for the flower, this leads to chasing Sandy while taunting him into fighting. Soon one of Huntsman's silk traps catches Sandy and Huntsman confronts him about his past as a warrior, after Sandy explains his current motivations he questioned why Huntsman is Lady Bone Demon’s “Errand Boy”. This strikes a nerve in him and goes to attack Sandy, but the latter catches his fist and offers him a cup of tea as a way to try and make peace -and possibly friends- with him, before Huntsman can either deny or accept the offer a bird smacks his face and the monkeys from the jungle attack him to defend Sandy. Huntsman struggles a bit before doing a swift blow, knocking all the monkeys off him, provoking flashbacks in Sandy leading him into showing his true strength, Huntsman keeps taunting him until he realizes he underestimated Sandy powers and that he has no chance at winning, he runs back to the Silken Web Cave with a petal of the crimson jimson weed to give Lady Bone Demon.
After being dismissed he notices he has a Sandy’s teabag in one of his pockets, remembering what he told him, he asks Lady Bone Demon why he is doing all of this for her, to which she replies that that’s “his role to play in this game” Huntsman supposes he’s doing it for the Spider Queen, but leaves the room unsure of the situation.
72 Transformations[]
While Huntsman and the other Spider Demons were rebuilding the spider mech, he tried to tell the Spider Queen about Lady Bone Demon, but silences himself from saying anything further. Later, when MK returned to the Silken Web Cave to reclaim Pigsy's noodle sign, Huntsman and the others tired to attack him, but was horrified when MK showed his puppy hands to him and the other Spider Demons. While looking for MK, Huntsman and the Strong Spider were attacked and then promptly killed by the Mayor.
Personality[]
Led by his desire to please the Spider Queen, Huntsman took great passion into his huntsman occupation, specially hunting down people. He was short-fused as it was not very difficult to irritate or anger him, specially when people talked down to him, such as when Sandy referred to him as "Errand Boy" or when Syntax belittled his abilities.[4]
He turned submissive and yielding to his figures in power like Spider Queen and Lady Bone Demon, as shown when he kneels at Spider Queen's intimidation[5] and when he is wary of the Lady Bone Demon's intentions.[1]
He enjoyed physical fights and looked forward to them, taunting and mocking his enemies. This search for confrontation made him reckless and forget the consequences of his actions, such as when he leaped into empty space of the Celestial Realm hoping to land in the Team Dronecopter before the Strong Spider grabbed him,[3] or when he taunted Sandy so insistently only to get overpowered by him.[1]

Lady Bone Demon[]
Because the Spider Queen worked alongside Lady Bone Demon, Huntsman had to work for her as well. However, as time went by, he began to wonder why he was helping her create the bone mech after fighting Sandy.
Sandy[]
Sandy was one of Huntsman's enemies. Huntsman seemingly had an odd fascination with Sandy, demanding that he fight him and repeatedly commenting on his build. Huntsman mocked Sandy for his pacifism believing it makes him weak. Sandy tried to offer him a bag of tea, which Huntsman also mocked him for. He went as far as to attack some of animals in the forest, which angered Sandy enough to almost strike him. Sandy told Huntsman to leave, which he did. Despite previously mocking him for it, Huntsman kept the tea bag Sandy gave him.
