Archetype:Apex Predator

"Top of the food chain, baby! Upchuck doesn't have a natural predator!"

― Ben Tennyson as Upchuck (Ben 10 Omniverse)

"I'm an Apex Predator"

― Andrew Detmer (Chronicle)

"Let me tell you something about Hew-mans, Nephew. They're a wonderful, friendly people, as long as their bellies are full and their holosuites are working. But take away their creature comforts, deprive them of food, sleep, sonic showers, put their lives in jeopardy over an extended period of time and those same friendly, intelligent, wonderful people... will become as nasty and as violent as the most bloodthirsty Klingon. You don't believe me? Look at those faces. Look in their eyes."

― Quark to his nephew (Star Trek: Voyager)

Capabilities

The user is an Apex Predator; a vastly far more superior predator in the known world, with a fearsome capacity for hunting down practically any species in their ecosystem, even other predators with strengths and abilities beyond that of mere ordinary predators.

Predators of this category are at the top of a food chain and are never preyed upon by any other predators because they are the most dangerous and the most fearsome of creatures in their world with qualities of a greater degree and having powers other members of their species don't have.

There are many variants of apex predators, many of them can come from any particular species from foreign to common, others can come from nature while other can come from different sources of creation that can enhance any predators to their highest danger in being, reaching their predatory potential to its maximum making them the most dangerous beings in the natural world or even their own universe.

Variations

Alien Physiology - Many extraterrestrial have been known as the most fearsome predators in existence.
Hybrid Physiology - Combining predators together with other predators or other genetic material can have surpassing qualities.
Prime Being - Some apex predators can be uniquely the first ones of their kind.
Scientifically Attuned Physiology - Users may have used science to enhanced themselves.
Upgrading - Stronger apex predators can continually augment themselves to become unstoppable.

Associations

Artificially Enhanced Physiology - Users may have had their biology's artificially enhanced.
Monster-Infused Mutated Physiology - Users may have injected themselves with another species blood to achieve such status.
Psionic Bio-Tech - User may have used psionic bio-tech to achieve such status.
Superior Human Physiology - Ordinary humans alone proved very dangerous predators, imagine if they had real power.
Supernatural Intelligence - Users of great intelligence can be the most dangerous of predators due to outsmarting many others.

Limitations

Natural predators can encounter a species that is far beyond their own capability to hunt and kill, possibly resulting in extinction and/or prolonged conflict (especially prone to occur when a species tries to enter another ecosystem).
As hard to kill as they are, they can still be slain.
Weak against Food-Chain Manipulation.
