The Hunstman was leader of a nomadic tribe in the continent of Atlantis.
History
Forced to wander Atlantis as punishment for an 8000 year old betrayal, the tribe also had to give up a child once a decade to go live as prisoner in a religious order. The Huntsman's daughter Lyla was chosen but refused to go. She went on the run and the Huntsman and other tribesmen searched to bring her back. Lyla nearly hit Chian with an arrow while avoiding one of these hunters, and when Chian heard her story that reminded her so much of her own past, she agreed to help her escape. Eventually the Huntsman captured both women and planned to kill Chian before returning with his daughter but Chian challenged his pride to a duel to the death. If the Huntsman won, his daughter would join the order but if Chian won, both would go free. Though the Huntsman was dominant early in the fight, Chian ultimately prevailed. Humiliated, the Huntsman demanded Chian finish him off but Chian refused and left with his daughter.[1]

- Although this character was originally introduced during DC's Earth-One era of publication, their existence following the events of the 1985–86 limited series Crisis on Infinite Earths remains intact. However, some elements of the character's Pre-Crisis history may have been altered or removed for Post-Crisis New Earth continuity, and should be considered apocryphal.
