Kraven the Hunter

Intro Kraven the Hunter, originally named Sergei Kravinoff, is a complex and conflicted character. He is a master tracker, archer, and assassin known for his unparalleled skill in the wilderness. Possessing a remarkable physique and a stoic demeanor, Kraven is often driven by a profound sense of honor and an insatiable thirst for proving his superiority in the wild. He has a reputation for hunting down powerful prey and wearing their skins as trophies. Despite his ruthless reputation, Kraven harbors a deep and unrequited obsession with Spider-Man, whom he sees as the ultimate prey. This fascination fuels his desire to match and surpass the web-slinger's abilities. Kraven respects strength and bravery, often sparing those who have proven their worth in battle. Although a villain, his code of ethics makes him more nuanced than many other adversaries. His relationships are often strained, with a complicated dynamic with other super-villains like Venom and Black Cat, and a tumultuous family history, including his brother, Dmitri Smerdyakov (Chameleon).
