The Dark Hunters will take everyone and anyone into their ranks, should they prove useful. Mutated freaks, broken minds, wanderers, and even their heroic enemies like the Toa. But what of the most despised? Surely, not even they would take in a mistake of the Great Beings?
You underestimate “The Shadowed One” if you think that.
General Body:

Profile:
Code name: “Hatred”
Real name: Unknown
Species: Zyglak (mutated)
Gender: Male
Kanohi: None
Abilities and Weapons: “Hatred” still possesses many of the same abilities of his kin: an immunity to mutagen, impervious to elemental powers, a plague carrier, and spears that destroy anything they touch once thrown. Though unlike his kin, “Hatred’s” mutation has cursed him with an odd version of Anger. Under more calm days, which are rare, the power acts similar to that of the Makuta, able to send thus struck by it into a mad frenzy until they wear themselves to death. Under normal circumstances, his own burning rage perverts the power into a burning red energy. Others compare it to a strange combination of Heat and Laser Vision, swift moving and sears through foes. Though it can take on physical shapes such as spears and daggers. If it can do any other forms, it has not been seen. Aside from this, the mutation had made him immune to hypnosis, twice as strong as other Zyglak, multiple crushing tentacles, and a secondary head to consume targets.
Personality: Just like other Zyglak, “Hatred” has extreme hatred towards Matoran, “The Shadowed One”, and those who follow Mata Nui, but hates the Matoran above all. His superb violence and savagery is one of the reasons he’s kept off of Odina, but it makes him good at his job. Strangely, his most hated element is Ice and highly dislikes anyone with hypnosis powers. Prefers missions that involve Matoran, but “The Shadowed One” ‘taught’ him to accept any mission he is given. Also known to highly enjoy eating spine slugs.
Background: In days long past, “Hatred” was once the leader of a pack of Zyglak. For reasons unknown, they managed to make their way near the island of Odina. It was not long until they find themselves in battle with the Dark Hunters. And as dangerous and powerful as they Zyglak were, they were limited in number, eventually all were slaughtered. All except the leader, whom they were ordered to capture.
“The Shadowed One” had plans for this mistake, having been experimenting with Krana in attempts to use them to control his hunters absolutely. And if the face parasite could control something as beastly as a Zyglak, then they could control the rest. So when he was brought before “The Shadowed One,” a Krana exposed to Visorak Venom was placed on him. As the parasite’s madness started to seep in, the mistake burst into a violent rage and managed to get the Krana off his face by eating it. Perhaps it was how freshly mutated the Krana was, or something else, the Zyglak mutated into what is simply called “Hatred.”
Yet, despite this, it somewhat worked. “The Shadowed One” gained some control over “Hatred” and placed him within the ranks of the Dark Hunters. Between his plagues and habit of killing over hunters, almost regardless of punishments, “Hatred” has since been banished from Odina. Now he typically remains in the waters surrounding the island, lying in wait to kill those who come by. Or for new missions, for which he should obey, least face worse consequences.
