Robyn Canmore

Robyn Canmore was a Hunter. She is the middle child of the Canmore trio, sister of Jason and Jon Canmore. She discontinued being a Hunter in 1996, and now leads the Redemption Squad under the codename: Hunter.

History

Robyn was born on June 19th, 1966. In 1980, when she was 14, she accompanied her brothers and her father, Charles Canmore, to Paris, where, on the night of September 28th, she saw her father's fatal battle with Demona at Notre Dame Cathedral. Afterwards, she and her brothers became Hunters, vowed to hunt down and destroy Demona and any other surviving gargoyles.

When the Canmores came to New York in 1996, Robyn applied for a position at Nightstone Unlimited as Dominique Destine's personal assistant, under the alias of Robyn Correy. There, she discovered about Dominique's double identity as Demona, and learned about her genocide scheme, "Operation Clean Slate".

She also took part in the struggle between the Hunters and Goliath's Clan, personally destroying the clock tower herself. However, after the battle at the dam where Jason Canmore was seemingly killed, she began to have doubts about their war upon all gargoyles, particularly after seeing what it was doing to Jon's character. She went with him to St. Damien's Cathedral for their final battle with the clan, but stopped the fighting when Jason and Elisa arrived, as Jon did not. Her original feelings about gargoyles were further shaken when she saw Goliath destroy the Praying Gargoyle, willingly risking his life and those of his entire race to save humanity from destruction ("Hunter's Moon") . Afterwards, Robyn Canmore was taken into temporary police custody for destroying the clock tower.

Redemption

Hunter

However, she was soon released through the agency of the Director, who had decided to use her as his recruiter for the Redemption Squad, and its leader, under the codename, Hunter. She first traveled to Australia and after witnessing Dingo and Matrix defeat the Tazmanian Tiger in Sydney, followed them back to Uluru where she convinced them to join the Redemption Squad. The three then left for Tokyo to hunt for a tengu. ("Strangers") Upon arriving, they tracked down and captured Yama. Hunter offered him a choice between the chance to regain his honor, but threatened his clan if he refused ("The Lost").

On New Years Eve, 1996, Hunter and her squad arrived in Manhattan on a mission to track down Dr. Sevarius. While there, she visited Jason at Rikers Island, and while there, spotted John Castaway in a television commercial for the Quarrymen. Recognizing him as Jon, Hunter approached him at the Quarryman Brownstone in an attempt to reason with him, only to be dismissed. Afterwards, while searching for Dingo and Matrix in the sewers, she was attacked by Fang ("Estranged").

Future

Robyn, as Hunter will recruit Fang and lead the Squad on many dangerous missions. Robyn will develop a stormy relationship with Dingo in the course of this new career, and they will presumably eventually be married. By 2198, their family, the Monmouths, will still be extant, and be at odds with the Castaways, descended from John Castaway.
