The Hunter was a Regenerator-type Necromorph biologically engineered by the Unitologist Doctor Challus Mercer on board the USG Ishimura.
The Hunter's creation began when Mercer inserted a piece of Necromorph tissue directly into the cranium of a live crew member, a patient named Brant Harris, who began a slow transformation into the creature. The Hunter was subsequently developed by Mercer through several surgeries on Harris to create the final version of the Necromorph; this experiment was performed by Mercer in his attempt to fulfill Marker 3A's demand that "the makers must be absorbed" for Convergence to take place.
