Humans

    Dallas Howard 

Dallas Howard

Played by: Steven Pasquale

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Ricky's brother, an ex-convict who recently got out of jail.
  • Big Brother Instinct: Towards Ricky. When the latter is impaled by the Predalien's bladed tail, Dallas immediately opens fire in a rage and actually makes the monster retreat.
  • Big "SHUT UP!": After Drew mocks him for prioritizing Kelly and Molly's safety, Dallas calls him an asshole and tells him that, unless he can fly the helicopter for them, he should shut his mouth.
  • The Enemy Weapons Are Better: At the hospital, Dallas grabs hold of Wolf's plasma pistol after the latter drops it during a scuffle with a Xenomorph Warrior. Said Predator weapon is much more effective than the assault rifle he was using earlier as it can kill an Alien easily, and he uses it on the hospital rooftop to hold off a swarm of Xenomorph drones and warriors to give Kelly time to start up the helicopter; unfortunately, it's confiscated by the military at the end of the movie after he, Ricky, Kelly and Molly survive the helicopter crash, and Colonel Stevens later hands it over to Yutani for studying.
  • Hold the Line: Upon reaching the helicopter on top of the hospital, Dallas decides to buy time for Kelly to start it and attracts the incoming aliens to him. Luckily, he manages to survive.
  • Noodle Incident: He just got out of jail by the time of the movie, but his crime is unrevealed. Judging by comments made throughout the film, it's likely he was caught breaking into someone's property to rob them.
  • Odd Friendship: With the local Sheriff. He's an ex-con and the Sheriff is of course a lawman.
  • Precision F-Strike: When a Xenomorph drone sneaks up above him during his One-Man Army Hold the Line moment on the hospital rooftop, he gives it an ice-cold "Fuck you!" right to its face and blows its entire head off with Wolf's plasma pistol.

    Ricky Howard 

Ricky Howard

Played by: Johnny Lewis

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Dallas's younger brother, a pizza delivery boy and the love interest and eventual boyfriend of Jesse.
  • Attack! Attack! Attack!: He recklessly tries to avenge his girlfriend by charging at Wolf with an assault rifle (since it was one of Wolf's Predator weapons that skewered Jesse, albeit unintentionally). Lucky for him, he survives because a Xenomorph Warrior charges Wolf, which not only causes both falling down an elevator shaft, but stops the Predator from killing him.
  • Blinded by Rage: After Wolf accidentally kills Jesse, Ricky loses his shit and stupidly charges the Predator with an assault rifle (which, given Wolf's armor, does absolutely nothing) while screaming in obvious distress and anger, despite Dallas screaming for him to stop. Wolf notices this, but is unable to kill him before a Xenomorph Warrior tackles him down an elevator shaft. Even after that happens, Ricky runs to the edge of the elevator and empties his gun into the darkness while furiously calling Wolf a motherfucker.
  • Childhood Friend Romance: Jesse and Ricky talk about how they hung out together once and did stuff like sneak into the school pool "before you had a boyfriend." In the present, Ricky has a crush on Jesse which he clearly hasn't voiced before, indicating that their past interactions were playful shenanigans from before they were old enough to feel attracted to each other. Jesse easily notices Ricky's new feelings for her and proposes a Relationship Upgrade after she dumps her Jerkass boyfriend.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: After Wolf accidentally kills Jesse with a wayward shuriken, Ricky empties his assault rifle into the Predator in anger, although the bullets mostly just bounce off Wolf's armor. His attempts to avenge his girlfriend are further thwarted due to a Xenomorph throwing Wolf down an elevator shaft.
  • In the Back: After Ricky tries and fails to kill Wolf to avenge Jesse, he gets stabbed in the back of the shoulder by the Predalien's tail after noticing Wolf's handheld plasmacaster on the floor. The Predalien fails to kill him before Dallas saves his brother and forces the alien to run off by firing at it with a rifle, and at the end of the movie, he is given medical treatment by a group of soldiers.

    Kelly O'Brien 

Kelly O'Brien

Played By: Reiko Aylesworth

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Mother of Molly and wife of Tim, and a soldier in the military.
  • Cassandra Truth: Played With as Darcy and Morales refuse to believe her claims that the government is lying about the evacuation and split off from the rest of group. This seals both of their fates. Dallas, Ricky and Jesse believe her, however.
  • Cover Innocent Eyes and Ears: When the group encounters several dead bodies in the alien-infested hospital, Kelly covers her daughter's eyes to prevent her from seeing any of it.
  • Expy:
    • Likely a homage to Ripley, being the Action Girl who's protecting a child.
    • As a young veteran who's desperately trying to escape a hopeless monster infested midwestern town before it gets nuked by sunrise, she can be compared to Jill Valentine.
  • Mama Bear: After her husband is killed by a Xenomorph, she becomes fiercely protective of her daughter; for example, when a Xenomorph suddenly jumps on the helicopter to ambush them while Kelly is starting it up and Dallas uses Wolf's plasma pistol to hold off the aliens, Kelly furiously unloads her assault rifle into the alien while screaming at it to die.
  • Parents as People: As a result of being a soldier on a tour of duty, Kelly is absent for most of her daughter's life, and when she returns home, Molly is distant from her and closer with her father.
  • Properly Paranoid: Possibly due to her being ex-military, she quickly realizes that Colonel Stevens was lying about the evacuation as the government would want to contain the Alien infestation. Sure enough, the whole thing was a ruse to have the survivors gather at a certain point where all the Aliens would be lured to so the government could kill them all with a nuclear weapon.

    Molly O'Brien 

Molly O'Brien

Played by: Ariel Gade

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Kelly and Tom's young daughter.
  • Children Are Innocent: She's a young child, so she's very naive about what's happening around her. Justified for obvious reasons.
  • Daddy's Girl: Since her mother is an active duty soldier who spends long periods away from home, she's closer with her father than her mother, but she still loves her mother a lot.
  • Expy: Of Newt.
  • Neutral Female: She takes absolutely no role in the fighting against the aliens and spends most of her screen time hiding behind her mom. Justified, as she's only a child. However, she avoids becoming The Load.
  • Satellite Character: Her entire characterization is solely focus on her strained relationship with her mother.

    Buddy Benson 

Buddy Benson

Played by: Kurt Max Runte

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Father of Sam Benson, husband of Darcy and a hunter.
  • Alliterative Name: Buddy Benson.
  • An Arm and a Leg: Has his left arm melted off by the fachuggers' acid blood.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: As per usual, attacked by facehuggers.
  • Chest Burster: Takes two attempts to burst out of his chest, and the resulting blood and gore flies onto a tree. One of many very over-the-top gory scenes in the movie.
  • Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong: Manages to kill the first facehugger that tries to get onto him, at the cost of losing an arm from its acid blood, so he's completely screwed when the second one shows up.
  • Major Injury Underreaction: When a facehugger's acid blood melts off his arm, he barely reacts beyond a groan of mild discomfort.
  • No Body Left Behind: His body is disintegrated by Wolf's dissolving liquid.
  • Too Dumb to Live: Investigating the spaceship that crashed did not end well for him or his son. They stop running well before they could conceivably be out of danger.
  • Red Shirt: Another facehugger victim.

    Sam Benson 

Sam Benson

Played by: Liam James

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

The son of Buddy and Darcy, who is killed off by a chestburster.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: As per usual from being facehugged, with the added bonus of seeing it happen to his father first.
  • Death of a Child: He's a pre-teen boy and one of the first victims of a facehugger in the film, as it impregnates him with an alien that later bursts through his chest and kills him. He's also the first child to have this happen to him onscreen in an Alien film, let alone the first minor to be killed by a Chestburster, period.
  • Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong: While it was stated to have happened to the colonist kids in Aliens, Sam is the first child to suffer this onscreen. Some people view this as having been done for pure shock value.
  • Harmful to Minors: Getting facehugged and then chestbursted is bad enough, but he has to watch it happen to his father first and is clearly horrified by it. He also has to watch his father lose an arm to the facehuggers' acidic blood.
  • No Body Left Behind: Wolf's dissolving liquid erases his body, and nobody manages to find it in the forest.

    Harry 

Harry

Played by: Lloyd Berry

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

A homeless man living in the sewers.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: Offscreen, his body is found later by Wolf.
  • Chest Burster: Offscreen.
  • Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong: A facehugger jumps onto him and impregnates him with a chestburster.
  • Hope Spot: When the facehugger comes after him, he manages to catch it before it attaches to his face. Unfortunately, a Warrior Xenomorph startles him, causing him to lose his grip on the parasite, which wastes no time in clamping onto his face.
  • Instant Sedation: It takes just a few seconds for Harry to fall unconscious the moment the creature attaches to him.
  • No Body Left Behind: Wolf's dissolving liquid wastes no time disintegrating his body in the Yautja's quest to ensure the humans don't learn of alien existence on Earth.
  • Red Shirt: Again, another facehugger vicfim.

    Homeless Man 

Homeless Man

Played by: John Wardlow

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Another homeless man living in the sewers.

    Homeless Woman 

Homeless Woman

Played by: Nesta Chapman

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

A homeless woman living in the sewers.
  • Ain't Too Proud to Beg: She begs the Predalien not to kill her after its facehugger friends attack the two dudes she was with. It doesn't work and the Predalien impregnates her with several bellybursters that rip out of her body.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: A victim of the Predalien, and the first person to be killed by the Predalien's bellybursting attack.
  • Chest Burster: Technically bellybursters — embryos implanted directly by the Predalien (read: being vomited down the victim's throat, removing the need for a facehugger) resulting in the Aliens coming out from the stomach instead of the chest, and usually more than one at a time.
  • Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong: Is impregnated by the Predalien, who was (according to Word of God) a young Queen.
  • Gory Discretion Shot: What happens to her is not seen as the Predalien blocks our line of sight (not to mention, bad lighting) and only her corpse is visible in a later shot.
  • No Body Left Behind: Wolf dissolves her corpse with his dissolving liquid in the sewers.

    Tim O'Brien 

Tim O'Brien

Played by: Sam Trammell

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Father of Molly and husband of Kelly.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: Mauled to death by a Xenomorph in his own home while his wife and daughter run away.
  • Oh, Crap!: Is absolutely terrified when he is jumpscared by a Xenomorph through the window.
  • Satellite Love Interest: What little is known about Tim is Molly is closer to him that she is with her mother, even rejecting Kelly's offer to read her a bedtime story so he can do it instead. He has barely any scene to himself before he is killed off by an alien.
  • Red Shirt: He's one of several obligatory Xenomorph victims.
  • We Hardly Knew Ye: We learn absolutely nothing about him before he dies, sans the fact that he's Kelly's husband and Molly's father.

    Colonel Stevens 

Colonel Stevens

Played by: Robert Joy

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

The military commander of the National Guard in Gunnison, Colorado.
  • Armies Are Evil: Regardless of how necessary was it (and with Xenomorps it is very necessary) he still made the decision to sacrifice a town with more than five thousand souls to nuclear fire to wipe them out and convinced the few who could contact the authorities asking for help to head to the middle of the town for rescue that would never come and become bait for a kill box, as well as send out soldiers to find anything that escaped and (possibly) silence any witnesses and finally hands over all data and the salvaged Predator technology to one of the owners of the future Weyland-Yutani, which was a very bad decision in the long run.
  • Necessarily Evil: He orders the nuclear bombing of an entire town in order to prevent the Xenomorph infestation from spreading any further, rather than risk anymore death or one of the creatures escaping by trying to evacuate anybody first. It's made clear that he knows what he's doing is awful, as he lies to a man he knows will be dead in a few minutes, and looks completely eaten up with guilt while he does it.
  • Well-Intentioned Extremist: He drops a nuclear bomb on an American town to contain the spread of an alien infestation, lying to the survivors that help will come to evacuate them in the center of town. He does this possibly to make sure as many Xenomorphs are caught in the middle of the blast. Using these poor people as bait may seem awful, but his intentions are ultimately noble, as he needs to ensure none of these creatures (that have already reduced a town made up of thousands of people down to a handful of survivors) manage to survive the blast.

    Jesse Salinger 

Jesse Salinger

Played by: Kristen Hager

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Ricky's love interest and eventual girlfriend.
  • Accidental Murder: A victim of this, as Wolf throws a shuriken at a Xenomorph that rolls down the hallway and finds its way into her stomach, sticking her to the wall and fatally bisecting her.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: A shuriken throw by Wolf lands in her torso and pins her to a wall, where she quickly bleeds out. In the Unrated version, she instead gets bisected at the abdomen and her intestines spill out.
  • Establishing Character Moment: In her first scene, Jesse invites a pizza boy (her classmate Ricky) into her place, confides her relationship issues to him, and yells at her jealous boyfriend to stop hitting Ricky, but doesn't do anything else besides give Ricky an apologetic look once Dale stops pushing his shit in. In her future scenes, she's warm-hearted, but more of a bystander during both Ricky and Dale's next scuffle and the Xenomorph attacks.
  • Half the Man He Used to Be: Female variant. In the Unrated version, after Wolf's shuriken pins her to the wall, her body splits in two at the abdomen, spilling her guts everywhere.
  • Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: A fairly nice blonde girl.
  • Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: She is accidentally killed in the crossfire between Wolf and the Xenomorphs when Wolf's bladed shuriken hits her in the torso and pins her against the wall, where she quickly bleeds out. In the Unrated version, she's also bisected at the abdomen and her guts spill over.
  • Love Interest: Her only real significance to the film's plot is being the girl that Ricky has an obvious crush on; she also dated Dale before dumping him because he was a Jerkass.
  • Mauve Shirt: She survives until the confrontation at the hospital, where she's accidentally killed by Wolf.
  • Ms. Fanservice: Gets a bikini scene when she and Ricky sneak into their high school's pool. It crosses into Fan Disservice when you remember she's a teenager.
  • Neutral Female: She serves no active role in the fighting between the Xenomorphs and Wolf, and mostly stands around during the fighting. She also does the same thing when Dale beats up Ricky without even trying to help him, although she does at least tell Dale to back off.
  • Satellite Love Interest: Same as Love Interest above.
  • Screw This, I'm Outta Here: During the gunfight with the Xenomorphs in the hospital, she panics and decides to nope out of there after the gang guns down the Xenomorph that killed Drew, which indirectly causes her death.
  • Too Dumb to Live: Runs ahead of the others in the group while panicking despite Ricky repeatedly telling her to wait, causing a shuriken thrown by Wolf to land in her torso and kill her.

    Drew 

Drew

Played by: David Hornsby

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

A pizza place manager and Ricky's boss.
  • Big "NO!": When he gets ambushed by a Xenomorph, he screams this at the top of his lungs before the alien kills him.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: When his back is turned when he and the rest of the team are moving through the Alien-infested hospital, a Xenomorph Warrior ambushes him and tears him apart, possibly with a head-bite from its inner jaw based on the noise heard during the struggle.
  • Flat Character: Just your average resident of Gunnison, Colorado, and the manager of a pizza place who's also Ricky's boss.
  • Jerkass: Near the beginning of the movie, he threatens to have Ricky fired if he refuses to make the pizza delivery to Jesse's house, likely since Ricky has feelings for Jesse but doesn't know how to say it. He later shows himself to be a dick to Dallas too, as when he orders the group (himself, Ricky, Drew, Jesse, Molly and Kelly) to protect Kelly because she's the only one who can fly the helicopter on the hospital roof, Drew asks him if they're in the Titanic and mocks him for prioritizing Kelly's safety ("screw the women and children first shit, man!"), before Dallas puts him in his place by ordering him to STFU.
  • Non-Action Guy: Has no combat experience and is put in with the rest of the main cast, but even after he does get his hands on a gun, he has no chance to do anything before a Xenomorph sneaks up on him.
  • Oh, Crap!: Screams "Oh, god, no!" in absolute terror when a Xenomorph ambushes him from behind and kills him.
  • Red Shirt: He receives zero characterization before a Xenomorph kills him. As the manager of a pizza place, he also wears a literal red shirt.
  • Survivor Guilt: Tells the others that he was too scared to save his friends from the Xenomorphs.
  • We Hardly Knew Ye: The only thing we learn about him is that he's a pizza place manager and Ricky's boss, then he gets ambushed and disposed of by a Xenomorph in the hospital.

    Earl and Scotty 

Earl and Scotty

Played by: Rainbow Sun Francks (Earl), Juan Riedinger (Scotty)

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

A pair of conspiracy theorists, and also stoners.
  • Black Dude Dies First: Possibly, as one of them has darker skin than his friend, but they both die at the exact same time, so it's never made specific who got their head blown off by Wolf's dual plasmacasters first.
  • Boom, Headshot!: How they die, courtesy of Wolf.
  • Conspiracy Theorist: One of them believes that Gunnison would one day be attacked by terrorists. He's proven insanely wrong, as the "terrorists" are actually the Predalien and his crew of Xenomorphs.
  • Drugs Are Bad: Eddie realizes they're both stoned, and one of them just nods in response.
  • Non-Action Guy: Dallas tells them both to grab some guns in the sporting goods store, but they have no time to do anything before Wolf smokes them.
  • Red Shirt: They exist for not even a minute and receive absolutely zero characterization before they're both killed by Wolf.
  • Your Head A-Splode: Wolf shoots their heads off with his dual plasmacasters, complete with pieces of brain flying everywhere.

    Karl 

Karl

Played by: Tom McBeath

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

A construction worker.
  • Asshole Victim: Wolf kills him for threatening an innocent woman and her daughter.
  • Bad Samaritan: He initially seems friendly to Kelly and Molly while they're hiding at the cemetery, but when Molly continuously tells her mom that she wants to see her father, he gets aggressive and waves his gun around while repeatedly telling Kelly to shut her up and threatening to kill them, which Wolf kills him for.
  • Boom, Headshot!: Wolf snipes him from afar with his plasmacasters while hiding in a tree.
  • Jerkass: He initially acts like a Good Samaritan to Kelly and Molly (for about two seconds), but quickly shows himself to be an absolute asshole willing to murder an innocent mother and daughter, spitting death threats at them and swearing in the presence of a little girl; this, on top of him being armed, causes Wolf to kill him.
  • Killed Mid-Sentence: He tells Kelly to "shut [Molly] the fuck up, or I swear to God-" only for Wolf to kill him before he can finish talking.
  • Red Shirt: Exists solely to show how dangerous Wolf is, and that harming children is a big no-no for the Yautja.
  • Would Hit a Girl: Pulls a gun on Kelly and her daughter while spitting death threats at them, but has no chance to actually hurt them before Wolf kills him.
  • Would Hurt a Child: He has no qualms about threatening a young girl while waving a gun around. Thankfully, Wolf kills him before he can act on those threats.
  • Your Head A-Splode: Courtesy of Wolf's dual plasmacasters.

    Dale Collins 

Dale Collins

Played by: David Paetkau

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Jesse's boyfriend and the resident bully.
  • Asshole Victim: He's the local high school's resident bully and ends up being killed in the crossfire between Wolf and the Xenomorphs when the Predator shoots a Xenomorph in the store and its acidic blood falls onto him.
  • Boom, Headshot!: He gets sprayed in the face with a Xenomorph's acidic blood after Wolf caps it with his plasmacaster.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: He gets one of the more gory on-screen deaths when his face is melted off by acidic Xenomorph blood getting poured on him, with his eyes melting in the process and glimpses of his skull visible; he is also heard gurgling as this happens.
  • Death by Pragmatism: When the aliens attack them in the gun store, Dale grabs the keys to the Sheriff's car in the ensuing panic and attempts to make a run for it. Unfortunately, an Alien is waiting for him by the exit, and it ambushes him before he can escape and pins him to the floor. Wolf appears and blasts said Xenomorph with his plasmacaster, but the blood spray hits Dale in the face and gruesomely melts through his skull.
  • Face Death with Despair: He's absolutely terrified when a Xenomorph attacks him and spends his last moments pathetically writhing in agony as the alien's acidic blood eats away at his face.
  • Hazy–Feel Turn: Falls in with the main characters after witnessing an alien kill Nick and Mark, although this is more out of convenience and proximity than any repentance, so it's unlikely anyone will feel bad for him when he gets his face melted off by a Xenomorph's acid blood.
  • Politically Incorrect Villain: He calls Jesse a "slut" when he shows up at the swimming pool with his friends and interrupts Jesse and Ricky while they're kissing, which provokes Ricky into throwing them all into the pool and starting a fight.
  • Screw This, I'm Outta Here: When the group is attacked in the gun shop, he goes "fuck this," steals the Sheriff's keys and attempts to make a break for his car in order to escape town. Unfortunately for him, a waiting alien has other plans.

    Nick and Mark 

Nick and Mark

Played by: Matt Ward (Mark), Michal Suchanek (Nick)

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Two of Dale's friends.
  • Ain't Too Proud to Beg: Nick is the last of the four (between himself, Ricky, Jesse and Dale) to make it out of the window to escape from the Xenomorph that just killed his friend, but he can't make it to safety when Ricky grabs him, so he's pitifully reduced to begging him for help before the Xenomorph pulls him back for an offscreen kill.
  • Asshole Victim: The two beta members of Dale's jerk-tourage who antagonize Ricky and Jesse; they're both killed off by a Xenomorph at the high school, so nobody feels much sympathy for them.
  • Black Dude Dies First: Nick is white and Mark is black. When a Xenomorph ambushes them at the school, it kills Mark first.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: Mark doesn't even make it out of the swimming pool before the Xenomorph headbites him through the head, and Nick follows him shortly after when the alien pulls him back through a window and guts him offscreen, presumably with its tail, then drags his body away and starts eating it.
  • Flat Character: Just two douchebags who are friends with Dale.
  • Killed Offscreen: A spray of Nick's blood gets onto the window and he is heard screaming as the Xenomorph drags him away, but we don't actually get to witness his death. Averted with Mark, as his death is fully onscreen (albeit hard to actually see because of the movie's terrible lighting).
  • No Body Left Behind: Their bodies are both disposed of by Wolf with his dissolving liquid, and the police aren't able to find anything when Ricky, Jesse and Dale tell them what happened.
  • Red Shirt: They mostly exist just to beat up Ricky with Dale (because why not) and then get murdered by an alien.
  • Satellite Character: Their only characterization is that they're Dale's friends and are also douchebags just like him.
  • Those Two Guys: Never seen without either each other or Dale.
  • We Hardly Knew Ye: They barely get any screentime before a Xenomorph kills them both.
  • Wrong Genre Savvy: They act as if they think they're playing the roles of Dale's Co-Dragons in a typical high school drama. But then, a Xenomorph finds them and they have just enough time to realize they're actually in a sci-fi/horror film before it kills them.

    Sheriff Eddie Morales 

Eddie Morales

Played by: John Ortiz

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

The sheriff of Gunnison.
  • Horrible Judge of Character: Chose to believe the government with Darcy and ended up getting incinerated in a nuclear explosion for it.
  • Nice Guy: Friendly, if way too in over his head.
  • Odd Friendship: He's the local sheriff and is friends with Dallas, a former convict who just got out of prison.

    Darcy Benson 

Darcy Benson

Played by: Chelah Horsdal

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Wife of Buddy and mother of Sam.
  • Horrible Judge of Character: Follows Eddie to the center of town when the group learns that Colonel Stevens is supposedly going to send an airlift to save them while stupidly claiming that the government would never lie to people, and gets nuked for it.
  • Outliving One's Offspring: Darcy's son dies early in the movie, while she lasts until the penultimate scene.
  • Wide-Eyed Idealist: During a quarantine situation, Darcy believes that the government will save them instead of slaughtering them. Sure enough, at the end of the movie, she's among the dozens of people killed in an explosion when a fighter jet drops a tactical nuke on the town to kill the Xenomorphs.
    Darcy: That's crazy. The government doesn't lie to people.

    Carrie Adams 

Carrie Adams

Played by: Gina Holden

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Ray's pregnant wife and a waitress at the local diner.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: She was mercifully unconscious when it happened.
  • Death of a Child: She was pregnant when the Predalien attacked her, and as seen by its ruthless impregnation of a maternity ward in the hospital, her unborn child (or children, who knows) is eaten alive by the Xenomorph embryos to act as food.
  • Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong: Another victim of the Predalien.
  • Gory Discretion Shot: Not the death itself (at least in the unrated edition) but the attack that resulted in her carrying bellybursters is cut away before anything is seen.
  • Red Shirt: Just another chestburster (or in this case, bellyburster) victim with zero characterization.

    Ray Adams 

Ray Adams

Played By: Chris William Martin

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

A police officer and the husband of Carrie.
  • Dead Guy on Display: Wolf strings his corpse up from a tree after skinning him, after which the police find the body and take it down.
  • Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Wolf kills him this way.
  • In the Back: Wolf impales him from behind with his wristblades.
  • Oh, Crap!: He's absolutely terrified when he runs away from Wolf after his radio gives away his location.
  • Red Shirt: He serves no purpose other than to be the first human killed by Wolf in the movie, and to showcase the Predator's badassery.
  • Screw This, I'm Outta Here: He desperately tries to run away from Wolf after he stupidly forgets to turn off his walkie talkie. It doesn't work and he gets impaled for it.
  • Too Dumb to Live: While hiding behind a tree and watching Wolf dissolve the corpses of Sam, Buddy and the facehuggers that attacked them, he forgets to turn off his radio, which alerts Wolf to his presence and lets the Predator kill him.

    Sue and other pregnant mothers 

Sue and other pregnant mothers

Played by: Victoria Bidewell (Sue), Jay-Lyn Green, Lili Wexu

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Several pregnant women in the hospital.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: Bellybursting is just as painful and gruesome as Chestbursting. The other women are forced to both watch it and experience it, not to mention their unborn babies are eaten by the Xenomorph embryos gestating inside their bodies.
  • Death of a Child: Their unborn (but ready to be) infants are devoured off-screen by the gestating bellybursters inside their wombs.
  • Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong: Impregnated with god knows how many bellybursters by the Predalien.
  • Fate Worse than Death: Each of them gets a Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong from the Predalien, which is bad enough, but it's implied that they can all feel the gestating Xenomorph embryos eating their unborn babies.
  • Red Shirt: They exist solely for the Predalien to create more Xenomorphs, and to create a gratuitously brutal scene.

    Helen 

Helen

Played By: Rekha Sharma

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

A nurse at the hospital.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: Strangled by the Predalien, then stabbed in the back with its tail.
  • In the Back: The Predalien kills her this way with its tail.
  • Neck Lift: The Predalien grabs her by the throat and chokes her before impaling her with its tail.
  • Red Shirt: Exists for no reason other than to be another obligatory Predalien victim.

Predators

    Wolf 

Wolf

Played By: Ian Whyte

Voiced By: Matthew Charles Santoro

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Wolf is the primary Predator character in the movie who came to Earth to investigate a crashed ship from his people, and attempt to clean up a large Xenomorph infestation.
  • Accidental Hero: Several times, he shows up and unknowingly saves the human protagonists from the aliens, such as when he strings Dallas from the ceiling to bait out the Xenomorphs before decapitating one with its wristblades.
  • Accidental Murder: While fighting several Aliens in the hospital, Wolf accidentally kills Jesse with a thrown shuriken after taking out two Xenormophs. He also indirectly kills Dale by blasting the Xenomorph on top of him with his plasmacasters, causing the alien's acidic blood to spill onto Dale's face and eat through his skull.
  • Alas, Poor Villain: "Villain" is definitely pushing it, as he wasn't truly malicious and did have good intentions in eliminating the Xenomorph infestation, but he's unceremoniously incinerated in a nuclear explosion along with the Predalien after they both mortally wounded each other on the hospital rooftop. At least he went out like a champ.
  • All There in the Manual: The name "Wolf" is never mentioned in the movie, and he's only called "Predator" in the credits; his name was given to him by the directors as a Shout-Out to Harvey Keitel's character Winston Wolfe in Pulp Fiction.
  • Anti-Villain: A "cleaner" Yautja who kills not for sport or the hunt, but rather to clear the Xenomorph infestation, and who kills anyone who Would Hurt a Child, spares the unarmed and does have genuinely good intentions. He's also a member of a species of Proud Warrior Race Guys who have a strict Code of Honor… a code that involves and endorses hunting people for sport and turning their body parts into trophies to go up on walls.
  • Attack the Mouth: At one point, he kills an alien by stabbing it in the head and through the mouth with his combistick.
  • Blade Below the Shoulder: He wields the customary Yautja wristblades on his wrist gauntlets, most notably using them to impale the Predalien in the jaw and out the top of its head during the final battle.
  • Blood Knight: Most Predators count as this, and while Wolf isn't on an official hunt but instead is a cleaner who was sent to Earth to contain the Xenomorph outbreak, he almost seems to be enjoying himself during his final battle with the Predalien on the hospital rooftop, where he takes off his mask and discards his remaining equipment after the Predalien destroys his stuff before absolutely wailing on it with his wristblades, indicating that he saw the Predalien as a Worthy Opponent.
  • Cleanup Crew: His mission is to remove any evidence of both Yautja and Xenomorph presence on Earth, and to carry out this task, he carries vials of blue dissolving liquid to get rid of dead bodies. As the Xenomorph infestation slowly grows out of control, he abandons his original mission to kill as many as he can so the infestation doesn't get more out of control.
  • Combat Pragmatist: Given that he was sent to Earth to destroy any evidence of alien life on Earth and wasn't on an official hunting trip, he seems almost happy to use dirtier tactics to kill the aliens, such as relying on his plasmacasters (and eventually his plasma pistol) for most problems, sneaking up on unsuspecting targets and even using meat shields, as seen when he strings up Dallas to force a Xenomorph to come out, letting him decapitate it. He also relies on his cloaking device to a degree, using it to sneak up on a Xenomorph at the swimming pool so he can spear it through the head, as well as his dissolving liquid to both erase dead bodies and even as a weapon to kill an alien at the hospital.
  • Cool Mask: At his stronghold on the Predator home planet, he has several of these hanging on his wall. The one he takes with him is silver and features several runes on it that read, in the Yautja language, "Not for glory. Not for honor. Not for the hunt. But to clean up the mess," indicating that he's doing this because he has to, not because he's on a hunt to kill humans for the thrill of it. In addition to the normal features like thermal vision and recording and mimicking human voices, his mask also has several vision modes, including one that lets him see the Predalien clearly and another that allows him to detect facehugger footprints, the latter of which he uses while investigating the crashed scout ship to track the facehuggers out of the ship after scanning for them with a syringe. During his final encounter with the Predalien on the hospital rooftop, he discards the mask when he decides to die fighting after the Predalien disarms him and destroys his self-destruct bomb; the runes on the mask also appear to glow red when he takes it off.
  • Dark Is Not Evil: For a ruthless Predator who's also basically a walking slaughterhouse and wears dark clothing (as well as a silver bio-mask), he's not really that evil and does have some standards, such as killing those who'd hurt children and mostly limiting himself to killing Xenomorphs unless the humans intentionally get in his way.
  • Defiant to the End: He roars at the Predalien after it stabs him In the Back with its tail on the hospital rooftop, and later just before the nuke incinerates them both.
  • Destination Defenestration: After one of his plasmacasters is damaged by an alien, he uses the remaining one to blast a Xenomorph out the window and onto the street.
  • Dramatic Unmask: Twice, although the "Dramatic" part is downplayed, as Wolf's face has already been seen.
    • After landing on Earth and grieving the deaths of his comrades, he briefly takes his mask off to put on another one belonging to a dead Yautja so he can watch the helmet cam recording of the Predalien attack on the scout ship to see what he's up against.
    • Later, during his final encounter with the Predalien on the hospital rooftop, he removes his mask and drops it on the ground when he decides to go down fighting after the Predalien destroys his self-destruct mechanism and disarms him of his gear; he thus remains unmasked for the rest of the movie until he and the Predalien are both killed in a nuclear explosion.
  • Dual Wielding: Not only does he have dual wristblades, but he also uses twin plasmacasters; in fact, he's the first Predator to use dual plasmacasters.
  • Due to the Dead: When Wolf first arrives at the crashed Predator ship on Earth and finds the corpses of his brethren, he puts a hand on Bull's helmet and bows his head in grief while growling sadly, interestingly one of the few times we've seen a Predator show sadness. After seeing what he's up against by watching a recording in Bull's helmet cam, he uses the Self-Destruct Mechanism in his wrist gauntlet to destroy the ship, although this is also out of pragmatism to prevent humans from learning of the Predators' existence or getting their hands on their technology.
  • Earned Stripes: Presumably, given the sheer amount of Xenomorphs he kills in the movie and his rank in the Yautja hierarchy, even though his face and chosen mask both lack a Xenomorph blood mark.
  • Everyone Has Standards: He may not be a saint, but he's disgusted when he sees a man threatening Kelly and her daughter at a cemetery, and uses his plasmacaster to kill him while letting the girls go with only an Implied Death Threat. When he reaches the hospital, he also makes (what could be) a rather disgusted growling sound when he uses his mask's vision modes to analyze the corpse of a pregnant woman who was bellybursted by the Predalien. Plus, abiding by his species' Code of Honor, unarmed humans don't post a threat to him, so he's not interested in attacking them unless attacked first.
  • Face Death with Dignity: After the Predalien disarms him of his weapons and destroys his self-destruct mechanism, Wolf chooses to go down fighting and removes his armor and mask to face the Predalien in an honorable duel; even when he's completely outmatched by the bigger creature and is eventually impaled through the back by the Predalien's tail, he has enough fight in him to defiantly roar in the Predalien's face after ripping out its inner jaws before impaling it through the chin and out the top of its head, and in his final moments before he and the Predalien are vaporized in a nuclear explosion, he roars in his enemy's face without a hint of fear.
  • Hero Killer: Jesse is among his victims when he accidentally kills her with a thrown shuriken in the hospital.
  • Honor Before Reason: Natch for his race; during his battle with the Predalien on the hospital rooftop, he slowly takes his bio-mask off even as the Predalien is standing in front of him. This would be considered Too Dumb to Live material for anyone unfamiliar with how the Predators work, but consider for a moment that it's a silent challenge from the Predalien, who was waiting for him to do so.
    • Debatable, as while Predaliens do inherit some instinctual behaviors from their Yautja hosts such as taking trophies without necessarily knowing why, fans are still split as to whether the Predalien was issuing a challenge or not.
  • Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: On both ends of this trope, as he first uses his wristblades to stab a police officer In the Back when the man saw him dissolving several dead bodies. He later uses his combistick to spear a Xenomorph through the mouth from behind as it's eating Nick's corpse. Lastly, during his and the Predalien's final battle on the hospital rooftop, Wolf mortally uppercuts the Predalien in the head with his wristblades after ripping out its inner mouth, after which the Predalien stabs him In the Back with its tail.
  • Implied Death Threat: In the Unrated Edition, after killing a man threatening Kelly and Molly, he then aims his laser sight on the gun the man dropped when Kelly tries to pick it up, silently telling her that if she picks it up, he will deemed her armed. Kelly realizes his threat and leaves the area with her daughter unharmed.
  • In the Back: He does this to his first human victim, an unfortunate police officer who witnessed him dissolving several corpses and attempted to escape after his radio gave him away. Finally, during the final battle against the Predalien on the hospital rooftop, he suffers one when the Predalien stabs him with its tail after he already yanked out its inner jaws and stabbed it in the head.
  • It's Personal: Judging by his growls and body language reacting upon seeing the Predalien in a biomask recording (recovered from Bull's corpse) of it killing his fellow Predators, and infesting Gunnison with its brood, Wolf considers the Predalien an abomination that he's obligated to dispose of, although it also seems like he's motivated to avenge his comrades by killing the bastard. He similarly spares no quarter when he rips its inner jaws out of its mouth and impales it through the head with his wristblades during the final battle.
    • Wolf obviously has no personal history with this particular Predalien (given that it's only a couple days old at most when he arrives on Earth), but his reaction is consistent with the way that the Predators in other AvP media typically react when confronted by a Predalien. The Predators and Xenomorphs have such an innate hatred of each other that the Predators regard the mere existence of a Predalien - a Xenomorph born from a Predator - as an abomination that must be destroyed no matter the cost.
  • Leave No Witnesses: This is his initial mindset after he arrives on Earth, as he destroys the crashed Predator ship with its self-destruct mechanism to prevent the humans from learning that aliens have been on Earth, although it's also to stop them from finding their technology. After an unfortunate police officer sees him dissolving Buddy and Sam's corpses (along with some dead facehuggers) to erase any evidence of the aliens, Wolf remorselessly kills the man with his wristblades to keep everything quiet before he can escape or inform his companions. He also uses his dissolving liquid to melt human and Xenomorph corpses alike, first in the sewer and then in the high school swimming pool, but he eventually abandons the plan when the alien infestation is rendered completely uncontrollable.
  • Lesser of Two Evils: To the Predalien, big time. The Predalien is more an animal than outright evil, but it still goes out of its way to brutally murder and impregnate people to spawn more aliens, while Wolf is a Well Intentioned Noble Demon who's only on Earth to clear the alien infestation, nothing more. He does kill any worthy prey he comes across, such as the stoners in the gun store, and he obviously does abide by his species' code of honor (which just so happens to endorse killing people and turning their bones into trophies), but his intentions are heroic and he doesn't just kill people for fun. He also does have some standards, such as killing a man at a graveyard for threatening a woman and her daughter.
  • Mutual Kill: He and the Predalien simultaneously mortally wound each other before being killed in the movie's climactic nuclear explosion that vaporizes the rest of Gunnison and the remaining Xenomorphs, with Wolf ripping out the Predalien's inner mouth and impaling it in the head while the Predalien skewers him with its tail.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero!: "Hero" might be pushing it, but:
    • While hunting the Xenomorphs in the sewers, Wolf accidentally creates an opening that allows the aliens to escape to the surface after the Predalien attacks him and causes him to misfire his plasmacasters. He later tracks them to the power plant but misses his shot (because of his tracking systems being messed up) and instead damages the facility, triggering a town-wide blackout that the Xenomorphs use as camouflage. These mistakes not only accelerate the spread of the infestation but also lead to additional deaths amid the ensuing chaos, including Dale's friends, Tim O'Brien, and Carrie at the diner.
    • At the hospital, Wolf accidentally kills Jesse with a thrown shuriken, which angers Ricky into attacking him and stops him from recovering his plasma pistol after he dropped it in a fight with some aliens. The weapon is later picked up by the survivors, who are eventually forced to surrender it to the military, where it ends up in the hands of the Yutani Corporation, laying the groundwork for the rise of Weyland-Yutani in the Alien franchise.
  • Nightmare Face: Under his mask, he has several burn marks on the left side of his face and is missing a tusk, while his left eye appears to be blinded, with the burns caused by Xenomorph acid blood during a previous hunt.
  • Noble Demon: He may be a Yautja who abides by his species' strict Code of Honor, but he also has good intentions in taking down the Xenomorphs and doesn't harm those who don't pose a threat, on top of refusing to harm children or girls.
  • No Body Left Behind: As a one-man Cleanup Crew, he carries a bottle of blue liquid that dissolves organic tissue. This actually works pretty quickly to dissolve xenomorph and human corpses, and can even be used as an improvised weapon as seen when he uses it to kill an alien directly during the fight in the hospital. When added to a body of water, it can vaporize any organic tissue therein, as seen when he uses it to dissolve the corpses of Dale's friends and the Xenomorph that killed them.
  • Oh, Crap!:
    • After using his tracking syringe to look for signs of the facehuggers held aboard the crashed ship, this seems to be his reaction, as he quickly turns his head and growls in frustration before taking Bull's weapons and activating his self-destruct device to destroy the ship, having realized that the facehuggers broke loose.
    • We don't see his reaction under his mask, but he likely had one after the Predalien whacked him with its tail and made him accidentally fire his plasmacasters into the sewers to create openings for the Xenomorphs to escape onto the streets.
  • Off with His Head!: Seems to be Wolf's preferred way to kill aliens throughout the movie, whether with his plasmacasters/plasma pistol (which results in a lot of heads exploding), or decapitating them with his wristblades or shuriken.
  • One-Man Army: Between him and the Predalien, he's scored the highest number of kills in Gunnison, most of which belong to Xenomorphs, but he also kills quite a few humans. Granted, those kills don't mean anything as everyone and everything other than these two were Red Shirts and Cannon Fodder. He also goes to Earth to clear the Alien infestation by himself with zero backup, but is still ruthlessly efficient in shredding dozens of Xenos with his weapons even while heavily outnumbered.
  • OOC Is Serious Business: The previous cinematic Predators weren't much for sadness, so it's pretty surprising when Wolf shows genuine, non-anger-related emotion over the deaths of the Predators on the Scout Ship, making an audibly sad noise as he puts a hand on Bull's helmet and bows his head in grief. Hell, not even the rest of the Lost Tribe seemed sad about the City Hunter's death, and Celtic only felt rage at Grid for killing his brother.
  • "Open!" Says Me: After showing up at the hospital to check for Xenomorphs, he kicks the doors down to get in, likely for a faster entrance.
  • Power Fist: When the aliens escape the sewer, he pulls out a "Power Punch Glove" that he slips onto his wrist gauntlet to break out of the sewer like a sledgehammer, with the glove being strong enough to leave a massive hole in the ground and even shatter concrete. Unfortunately, we never see it again after this.
  • Retractable Weapon: He wields the customary, near-universal Predator wristblades on his gauntlets, as well as a retractable combistick.
  • Rugged Scar: The left side of his face is burned by Xenomorph acid from a previous hunt, to the point he's missing one of his tusks and one of his eyes seems to be blinded.
  • Shotguns Are Just Better: After one of his dual plasmacasters is damaged by an alien, he cannibalizes both of them into a handheld plasma pistol that fires significantly more powerful shots than the plasmacasters themselves, reminiscent of an actual shotgun and strong enough to reduce an alien to mush, although it now needs to charge up before each use.
  • Shout-Out:
  • Spared by Adaptation: He survives the PSP video game adaptation, and escapes in a spaceship before the town is incinerated.
  • Villain Killer: He kills dozens of Xenomorphs throughout the movie and deals a Mutual Kill to the Predalien on the rooftop before they're both destroyed in a nuclear explosion.
  • Villain Protagonist: Technically the titular character of the movie, he serves as this at least in a Lesser of Two Evils way compared to the Predalien, who is unambiguously the movie's Big Bad and is a much more explicitly evil character, being a murderous Xenomorph-Predator hybrid who impregnates and kills people willy-nilly, whereas Wolf is a noble Anti-Villain willing to kill anyone who gets in his way, but he does have genuinely good intentions in taking out the aliens, mostly to stop humanity from learning about the Predators (although it's implied he's hunting them partially because the annihilation of the human race would leave the Yautja without a preferred hunting ground, since they hunt humans for sport).
  • Villainous Rescue: His main goal is to exterminate the Xenomorphs, so he mostly just ignores humans unless they're directly in his path, but his actions in eliminating Xenomorphs do result in him inadvertently saving humans from being killed by Xenomorphs a few times (though he also inadvertently kills just as many humans as he saves when they get caught in the crossfire). For example, he doesn't hesitate to inflict a Your Head A-Splode on an Asshole Victim who was threatening Kelly and Molly with a gun at the graveyard, and he indirectly saves Dallas from a Xenomorph that he decapitates with his wristblades (although, for the record, he specifically captured him and strung him from the ceiling to bait the aliens out).
  • The Voiceless: He never speaks any lines of dialogue throughout the movie, and the most we get out of him are growls, roaring and screaming.
  • Walking Armory: His weaponry consists of two plasmacasters (which he eventually combines into a handheld plasma pistol), a pair of shurikens, a razor-sharp whip made of a Xenomorph tail, a retractable combistick, dissolving liquid, laser trip-mines, a power-punch glove on his wrist gauntlet, and the customary retractable Predator wristblades.
  • Well-Intentioned Extremist: He's willing to kill any human who gets in his way or poses a threat to him (or Would Hurt a Child), but he has genuinely good intentions of wiping out the Xenomorph infestation, although while it being his job makes sense, it's implied that if the Xenomorphs take over Earth, the Yautja will simply lose a favored hunting ground. After his first mission to erase any evidence of the Predators and Xenomorphs' existence is flipped on its head by the Predalien spreading the infestation and making more aliens, he begins killing as many aliens as possible in an attempt to contain them; any humans he doesn't deliberately kill only die either accidentally or as collateral damage.
  • Whip Sword: He wields a Razor Whip made from the tail of a Xenomorph, taking it (coiled up) off a weapon rack in his fortress, although he only manages to kill one alien with it in the final battle before being disarmed by the Predalien; it's strong and sharp enough to bisect an alien and slice off its arms, allowing him to fatally stomp on its head.
  • Wouldn't Hit a Girl: At a cemetery, he kills a guy threatening Kelly and Molly with a gun and lets them leave without a fight, although he does give Kelly an Implied Death Threat by aiming his lasers at her to warn her that, if she picks up the gun, he'll deem her a threat and won't hesitate to attack her.
  • Wouldn't Hurt a Child: Not clearly seen (due to the movie's poor lighting), but heavily implied, as well as expanded material confirming that hurting a child is a severe crime in Yautja society.
    • He takes a while to disintegrate the corpses of the first two human casualties (Buddy and Sam), presumably because he lamented the fact that one of them was a child hunting deer with his father.
    • In the Unrated Edition, he uses his plasmacasters to kill a man threatening Kelly and Molly at the cemetery, but lets them go with only an Implied Death Threat when the former tries to pick up the guy's gun.
  • You Have GOT to Be Kidding Me!: This seems to be his reaction after accidentally frying the power plant with his plasmacasters while hunting a Xenomorph, as he roars in apparent frustration.

    Bull 

Bull

Played By: Bobby Jones

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

"Bull" is the nickname of a Predator seen during the film's prologue when his ship crashed and he and his comrades were killed by the Predalien.
  • Boom, Headshot!: The Predalien headbites him to finish him off after he is badly injured in the ship crash.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: He's mortally injured after his ship crashes in the woods and isn't even able to move, letting the Predalien headbite him after he only manages to send out a distress signal.
  • Gory Discretion Shot: When the Predalien jumps onto him and kills him with a headbite, we only see his blood fall onto his wrist gauntlet and the Predalien's tail swipes at him to block the camera's view.
  • Oh, Crap!
    • He seems to silently have one under his mask when he hears and sees his comrades being killed by the Predalien, as he immediately ran into the hallway to witness it killing one of his pals.
    • He likely had this reaction when he noticed the captive facehuggers escaping the ship's wreckage.
    • He also likely had one when the Predalien attacked him, which we see through his helmet.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero!: He tries to shoot the Predalien with his plasmacaster while inside of his ship. This causes the ship to crash on Earth, allowing the surviving Aliens to escape and infest the nearby town.
  • Small Role, Big Impact: The aforementioned Nice Job Breaking It, Hero! is what started the entire plot of the movie, and his distress signal was what caused Wolf to head to Earth to investigate the Xenomorph threat.

Played By: Ian Feuer

Appearances: Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

One of the Yautja onboard the Scout Ship, and the first victim of the Predalien.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: Head-bitten by the Predalien in the middle of skinning a Xenomorph trophy on the ship.
  • Dead Guy on Display: A deleted scene shows that the Predalien skinned two of the Predators on the ship, and he was likely one of them.
  • Face Death with Despair: He screams in horror when the Predalien grabs him by the head and kills him.
  • Gory Discretion Shot: The Predalien grabs him by the head and kills him when he's skinning a Xenomorph trophy, but the view cuts away to the trophy getting splattered with his blood and we only hear his screams. Just goes to show how brutal the Predalien is.
  • The Worf Effect: He was at least a Blooded Yautja who'd killed a Xenomorph and marked himself with its blood, but the Predalien kills him extremely easily to showcase the threat it poses.

Gunnison Predalien / "Chet"

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/predalien.png

Played By: Tom Woodruff Jr.

Appearances: Alien vs. Predator (2004) | Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

A unique Xenomorph-Yautja hybrid spawned from Scar, one of the Predators from the first film.
  • Bad Boss: It violently shoves a fellow Xenomorph aside to impregnate a homeless woman in the sewer.
  • Battle Trophy: It inherited more than its mandibles and dreadlocks from its host, with a deleted scene showing it skinning several of its Predator victims, and in the movie itself, it murders a dude by ripping out his skull and spine.
  • Big Bad: The main antagonist of the film.
  • Blood from the Mouth: It pukes out a lot of fluorescent green blood after Wolf rips out its second jaws with his hands.
  • Dirty Coward: Sort of. It has retreated from its enemies on two occasions when it could have easily killed them, and the only reason it fled was because both of those occasions involved physical harm being inflicted upon it by different weapons.
    • During Wolf's infiltration in the hospital Hive, it has the chance to kill the Predator then and there, but recoils from being hit by his wristblades and flees before letting its other Warrior-Drones attack him, only for them to be overwhelmed shortly afterwards.
    • It returns shortly to stab Ricky through the shoulder only to flee again when Dallas shoots at it with an assault rifle.
  • Fluffy the Terrible: The Predalien, a ruthless, hulking, murderous Xenomorph-Yautja hybrid that can impregnate hosts with multiple Xenomorph embryos by just puking them down people's throats… and production named it Chet for some reason.
  • Hero Killer: As heroic as Wolf is, anyways, but the Predalien mortally wounds him on the hospital rooftop by impaling him through the chest after being stabbed in the head and losing its second mouth, and they lock into a standoff before being incinerated in an explosion.
  • Honor Before Reason: Likely due to inheriting the Predator Honor Before Reason as an instinct; when Wolf takes his mask off in front of it, it patiently (and surprisingly) stands and waits for him to finish doing so instead of taking the opportunity to attack him. This is as controversial as it is debatable considering that Aliens are essentially animals with neither a sense of honor nor ability to take daily habits from their hosts.
  • Hybrid Monster: Subverted actually because while it is a Predalien, a Xenomorph incubated using a Predator as its host, it's completely normal for Aliens to take physical traits from their hosts to better adapt, so it is no more a hybrid than a Alien that gestated in a human or dog. It quickly matures into a Praetorian, giving it the ability to impregnate hosts by vomiting Xenomorph embryos down their throats.
  • Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: On both ends of this trope during the final battle with Wolf on the hospital rooftop: Wolf first uppercuts it in the jaw and out the top of its head after tearing out its inner jaws, then the Predalien impales him In the Back with its tail. It also does this to Ricky by stabbing him through the shoulder, before being forced to flee after Dallas wounds it with his assault rifle.
  • Mutual Kill: It and Wolf mortally wound each other before being vaporized by the nuke.
  • Retcon: In its cameo in the stinger of the first Alien vs. Predator movie, it has an inner mouth. When the decision was made to turn it into a Praetorian for Requiem, the scene was redone showing it without an inner jaw.
  • Super-Strength: Would qualify given it is stronger than a Predator (its host species), whose strength is much greater that of a human's. It effortlessly flings Wolf over a short distance during their first encounter in the sewer and during their final battle on the hospital's roof. During Wolf's scuffle with the Xenomorphs in the sewer, the Predalien easily bursts through the concrete and onto the street just by ramming its head into the ceiling.
  • Tongue Trauma: During the final battle, its inner jaw is ripped out by Wolf, causing it to spit out a lot of fluorescent green blood. It also seems to cause it a lot of pain, enough to distract it so Wolf can shank it in the jaw.
  • Warrior Princess: Word of God is that its ability to impregnate hosts is due to it being a young Queen, despite Praetorians never having been shown to be capable of doing so in other Alien vs. Predator media. It’s also strong enough to fight Wolf - a veteran hunter - one-on-one which is not really that notable considering that Aliens are always stronger and bigger than the hosts they come from.invoked
  • Would Hit a Girl: It impregnates a homeless woman in the sewer with several bellybursters and then Carrie in the diner, kills a nurse at the hospital by strangling her and stabbing her with its tail, and then impregnates several pregnant women in the maternity ward. Assuming any of the babies in the hospital were also girls and the Predalien ate them offscreen, this too would qualify.
  • Would Hurt a Child: It's not shown onscreen, but it's heavily implied that it eats the babies in the hospital's nursery. That's not even mentioning what it does to the pregnant women it runs into, as their unborn babies are eaten offscreen by the Xenomorph embryos that the Predalien pukes down their throats.
