They are the technological supremacists. Their entire culture is built around the "Hunt." Unlike the Aliens, the Predators possess a strict code of conduct ( The Code of Honor ). They do not kill the weak or the unarmed; they seek the "trophies" that prove their strength. This resonates deeply with the concept of Jihad or Ksatria (warrior/knight) culture found in Indonesian folklore. However, it is a twisted form of honor. Their technology—cloaking devices, plasma casters, wrist blades—is not used for peace, but to stack the deck in their favor. They represent the arrogance of the "Civilized" entity that believes its advanced tools grant it moral superiority over the "Savage."
