Predator X is a group of artificial, mutant-hunting creatures created by the Weapon Plus program to combat the coming of the "mutant Anti-Christ".
After being scarred by Dust, Matthew Risman is fixated on training Predator X to kill her.
Despite this, Predator X senses the mutant it was originally created to destroy, turns, and heads off to find it as the Purifiers follow.
[1] In Messiah Complex, Predator X arrives in Cooperstown, Alaska looking for the child with the X-Gene, pausing to eat the bodies of Blockbuster and Prism.
Additionally, it can absorb materials from the surrounding environment to repair itself, track mutants by their genetic signature, and generate acid.
