Bounty Hunter | comment |
Born of the Old West but found in many other genres since, the bounty hunter is a freelancer who assists law enforcement by pursuing wanted criminals for the price on their heads. His line of work often makes him a dangerous character, as he needs eyes in the back of his head. It also makes him gruff and cynical, if he lives long enough, and in the eyes of some citizens, he may be only slightly better (or worse) than the criminals he hunts. Sometimes, the bounty hunter captures criminals and brings them back to face trial (which is how real bounty hunters operate nowadays). But other times, especially in Westerns, the bounty hunter's reward is of the "Dead or Alive" variety, and many bounty hunters of the latter type kill their bounties rather than let them Run for the Border or risk ending in a Mexican Standoff and a bloody Blast Out. These kinds of bounty hunters are often called "bounty killers" or, more pejoratively, "assassins" or "headhunters". This has almost never been Truth in Television, though that problem can be Hand Waved if the bounty in question is exceptionally dangerous, put out by a criminal, or wanted by a corrupt, tyrannical, or failed state. Or if this occurs in a fictional setting, such as a dystopian post-apocalyptic wasteland or a futuristic totalitarian state. The bounty hunter is one of the most diverse roles and depending on their choices (and their employers) they can be have many types of character and appearance. Sometimes the Bounty Hunter is a villain, a sadist who profits off the death and suffering of others and who couldn't care less about justice. In that case, the best they can possibly be is a Nominal Hero who may hunt villains and do the right thing for all the wrong reasons. If that's the case then it is almost guaranteed that they will come in conflict with the heroes either because their head promises the biggest paycheck or because they want to be the one to capture the criminal and won't hesitate to kill and become a criminal over it themself. Sometimes they’re a Glory Seeker who wants to bring down the toughest targets. More often, though, they are just a working stiff who tries to do the right thing - or something close to it. Buried deep within their grizzled, world-weary exterior is still an idealist with a heart of gold. Because there is nothing that prevents a Bounty Hunter from taking both legal and shady bounties, this character is usually a Lawful Neutral, though less honorable ones tend to fall into either True Neutral or Neutral Evil territory. The Bounty Hunter is increasingly popular in Speculative Fiction ever since Boba Fett made it cool. It helps that space is thought of as another "frontier," and Western tropes go well with science fiction. Since it's so cool, most often bounty hunters in fiction are depicted as extremely skilled individuals and will prove a challenge for the main characters unless they are either there just to show us how overpowered our hero is or if the bounty hunters are themselves the main character(s). Science fiction bounty hunters may be members of a Proud Hunter Race, using their skills at stalking exotic prey to establish a (mostly) aboveboard career of Hunting the Most Dangerous Game. Many MMORPGs have a large proportion of their Side Quests involve collecting bounties on named monsters or NPCs. While the typical situation is for law enforcement to hire a bounty hunter, The Syndicate or the Big Bad may also hire one if a henchman absconds with a priceless MacGuffin or steals the proceeds of a heist. In Real Life, when in the company of actual bounty hunters, you will speak of them as "bail enforcement officers". Except for that one robot who prefers the term "freelance peace-keeping agent, yes?" There's overlap in Real Life with the job of skip tracer, a person who tracks down people on the lam from creditors. See also: Inspector Javert, Price on Their Head and "Wanted!" Poster. |

Killjoys revolves around a crew of interplanetary bounty hunters in a distant star system. They work for an organization of bounty hunters called the Reclamation Apprehension Coalition, commonly known as The Rack. The Rack is highly organized with their members only allowed to take bounties that fit their certification. A Level One warrant is a property retrieval bounty and only allows violence in self defense. A Level Four warrant is issued against the most dangerous criminals and is dead-or-alive. A Level Five warrant is a straight up assassination mission. The Rack acts pretty much as a secondary law enforcement agency for the star system. | |

In A. Kat's Inferno series, Moose is introduced as an elite bounty hunter, claiming to be the best. More generally, there seem to be lots of bounty hunters running around the world of Inferno. This makes sense in that the Order pays handsomely for getting the people marked for death in the Ritual, enough for Moose to become rich despite his youth. However, bounty hunters also appear to do more general mercenary work for anyone who can afford to pay them. A rare fantasy example. | |

Samurai Jack has faced many bounty hunters due to a high reward on his head set by Aku; a good part of why Jack is such a badass is because ever since arriving in the future, his already considerable skills have been tested and improved upon by constant surprise attacks by seasoned bounty hunters. In one episode, Jack faced 6 highly-skilled bounty hunters all at once, and they'd even had a fair bit of lead time to plan out and prepare a multi-pronged trap. They went down easily in less than a minute. After it was over, Jack just kept on walking as if nothing had happened. Another episode revolves around an encounter with two of these on a train; it laters turns out the pair are a former married couple, and the female hunter very nearly succeeded in capturing Jack. | |

For the first few levels, they're just taking down whatever targets they find, but after beating the bosses of Level 4 the saloon girls they rescue tell them about an enormous bounty that's been put on a notorious criminal and all his top enforcers, so the heroes get focused on taking down the entire gang. | |

In The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, the Man With No Name engaged in a con involving turning in his partner for the bounty on his head, freeing him from the noose by shooting off the rope, and then splitting the take between them. The villain Angel Eyes is a much darker version. His very first scene involves his target trying to pay him to kill his employer by offering more than what he was paid. Angel Eyes takes the money but simply tells him "When they pay me, I always see the job through" and shoots him. In the very next scene, he collects his money from his employer and says the exact same line before brutally murdering him. They don't call him "The Bad" for nothing! | |

Honor Among Thieves: Baasen Ray is a former smuggler and colleague of Han's, who has turned to bounty hunting after smuggling work dried up. Specifically, he is after the price placed on Han's head by Jabba the Hutt, and in fact convinced Jabba to pay a portion in advance by claiming he'd already captured Han and needed funds to get him back to Tatooine. He's desparate to get his hands on Han, lest Jabba come after him next. For all that, Han is able to convince him to join forces by promising greater rewards from the device everyone is after. | |

The Gunsmith Cats, Rally Vincent and Minnie-May Hopkins (and friends), spend most of their time as bounty hunters when they're not running their titular gun store. Rally and Minnie-May hold the distinction of being one of the most accurate portrayals of real-life bounty hunters that can be found in anime, or at least getting a lot closer to the real thing than most shows do (one key inaccuracy is that bounty hunting is illegal in their home state of Illinois). Unlike most other hunters, they maintain very close ties with their local police forces and are not regarded as being above or outside the law by any means; on one memorable occasion, a crook managed to kidnap Minnie-May because his and Rally's high-speed chase caught police attention and ended with Rally being arrested for breaking traffic laws. | |

Samus' missions for the Feds typically take the form of "kill X", where X is the enemy du jour. This makes her description as a bounty hunter slightly more accurate, as a bounty is paid for the things she kills. The only exceptions to the "kill X" missions are Metroid Prime 3, Hunters, and Metroid Fusion. Prime 2 can be an inferred mission: she's told to investigate the disappearance of a GF Space Marine squad, and she's "hired" by the Luminoth to eradicate the Ing. Super Metroid is debatable, since she's doing it all of her own accord (she doesn't have to chase Ridley down and get the baby Metroid back... but that's what she wants to do). | |

The May 2018 issue of White Dwarf included exclusive rules for using Venator Bands for 3rd Edition Necromunda. Venator Bands are elite gangs of Bounty Hunters who band together for protection, to track down the most lucrative bounties or for more esoteric and near-religious reasons. The rules for these gangs also include rules for including Bounty Hunters from specific Houses. | |

Off the Line: Countless of them are constantly chasing after Cloud/Rainstorm for his massive bounty which they need to kill and loot him to get. They are noted to be an opportunistic and unpleasant bunch who often hunt after lower level players instead of the more stronger players. Rainstorm would kill them in order to defend himself or for sport. | |

Domino staring Keira Knightley, based (very loosely) on real-life bounty hunter Domino Harvey. Unfortunately, it basically deletes or downplays all of the things that make Domino's story unique, and turns the character into a typical Hollywood cliche. | |

Garrow's Law: Thief takers. At the time, Britain had very few public police, so most crimes were investigated and "solved" by thief takers for reward money. The series shows the problems with this, since successful thief takers often became so through falsely accusing and framing people to get such rewards. In reality, some were even crime bosses themselves who returned people's property that their own minions stole to get paid for it. The one in the series frames a man on a theft charge and is indicated to regularly do this, but thankfully he's exposed for perjury with the innocent defendant acquitted. | |

Guilty Gear's Bridget is a self-proclaimed bounty hunter. However, she's not exactly very competent at it. Her only real successful bounty to date happened to consist of innocent people (in Bridget's defense, the bounties were given to her under false pretenses). Ky Kiske only paid her due to feeling bad for the poor little girl. Sol Badguy is a more experienced and competent example, and it's a career that fits nicely with his "hunting down and killing all other Gears" thing. The Whole premise of Guilty Gear X was that a large bounty was placed on mysterious command-type Gear Dizzy's head, so most of the characters introduced in that game and its derivatives are also Bounty Hunters, such as Bridget and Jam. |

In RWBY, the Huntsmen and Huntresses are essentially an institutionalized version of this. After graduating from one of the four Huntsman Academies (Atlas, Haven, Beacon and Shade), licensed huntsmen can move freely between kingdoms and take contracts for pay. These contracts usually revolve around fighting Grimm or protecting settlements that lie outside the fortified kingdoms, but can also be minor jobs such as assisting local police or escorting schoolchildren. Atlas plays with it, since their graduates are strongly encouraged to join the military, but are technically free to act as they wish. | |

Shrek: Pied Piper is described as one of the best bounty hunters in Shrek Forever After. He is hired by Rumpelstiltskin to capture Shrek. Piper uses a magical flute with a dial that can be set to any creature, among which are rats, witches, and ogres. When set to a creature and played, all of these within earshot start dancing uncontrollably and follow Pied Piper. Puss in Boots can also be described as this, although his job in Shrek 2 is to kill Shrek, not capture him. This would make him more of an assassin. The Wolf, from Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, is a bounty hunter after Puss himself. He shows up with Puss' "Dead or Alive" wanted poster, his weapons of choice are a pair of sickles, and the reward he's after is Puss' soul. Since he's not actually a bounty hunter — he's the Grim Reaper — he doesn't need anything as earthly as money. |

Inverted in Trigun, where the main character Vash is the one that has a bounty on his head. A sixty billion double dollar one at that. However, there are many unimportant side characters that are bounty hunters in there, and most of the destruction that follows Vash around is caused by people interested in the price on his head. The secondary protagonists, Meryl and Millie, seem like bounty hunters at first but are in fact insurance agents sent to minimize the massive collateral damage that bounty hunters after Vash always cause. In one early arc, though, Vash defeats a massive and destructive outlaw with a high bounty on his head, then hands him over to the poverty-crippled town that had actually hired the outlaw to try and claim him instead before getting out of control, making him a hero to the citizens. | |

The Dark Forces Saga features Kyle Katarn and Jan Ors, who are these at least in the general sense that Star Wars doesn't really distinguish between mercenaries, which the duo are actually labeled as, and bounty hunters; the main difference is that they do jobs for the Rebellion and later New Republic rather than the Empire or unaffiliated criminals like Jabba. Specifically, they're doing a job for someone else for the entirety of the original Dark Forces (the opening level has them stealing the Death Star plans to deliver them to Leia, then the rest of the game is a more involved mission to investigate a Dark Trooper project) and the first two levels of Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast (investigating transmissions coming from an Imperial outpost thought to have long since been abandoned, then the source of power crystals Kyle found samples of in that outpost). | |

In the Supernatural and The Dresden Files crossover fic Cross Cases, Harry doesn't buy Sam's claim of being a librarian for even a second. He decides Sam is most likely a merc who does dirty jobs for the highest bidder, from the way he moves, his weapons, the fact that he's built like a brick wall, and his careful, practiced lack of reaction to anything, supernatural and not. After he and Murphy go through his wallet while he's unconscious, they find his multitude of credit cards and fake IDs, only cementing the assessment in their minds. This isn't really too far off from Sam's (sort-of) actual profession as a hunter, minus the getting hired and paid part. | |

Bounty hunting is the occupation of Jet Black, Spike Spiegel, Faye Valentine, and about 300,000 folks in the Cowboy Bebop universe. In fact, so many people make a living chasing criminals in the future that a cheesy Western-themed TV series (a cross between Bonanza and an interplanetary America's Most Wanted) exists to provide them with intel on known bounty heads. All bounties must be taken alive and bounty hunters are liable for any damage they cause to bystanders or property, which is why the cast misses almost every big bounty, as well as in one particularly unlucky case, crashed into a police station, and once when they weren't given a bounty for stopping an AI in a satellite as it technically doesn't count as "alive". | |

Power Rangers: Power Rangers Ninja Storm features Vexacus, one of the later villains to join Lothor's crew. It's mainly used as shorthand for "this season's backstabber type" - the one being we see Vexacus hunt is an alien whose power he wants to take for himself, not an employer. Power Rangers Dino Charge features the Big Bad, Sledge, who is after the Ener-Gems for his own ambitions for domination. The monsters he sends to destroy the rangers are other criminals he's captured and promised freedom to the one who brings him an Ener-Gem. |

Robin (1993): Jaeger hunts monsters and humans with bounties on them when he's not hunting dangerous looking people for snuff films, he can get away with it a bit due to his wide array of identities and the authorities not knowing the civilian name of the villain Jaeger and the fact that his employers generally don't care about hiring a known villain. | |

In Strider, once Hiryu becomes a big enough nuisance the villains hire the services of Bounty Hunter Solo, an armor-clad flying hitman with a preference for firearms and a claim to be the strongest human being on Earth. Solo is more than happy to clash against the fabled Striders in battle, and more than once after getting bested in their first bout. | |

The Warriors of the Organization in Claymore function a lot like the example of Vampire Hunter D below. When a yoma preys on a settlement, the citizens round up money and make a request to the Organization. They dispatch a Warrior who slays the yoma and one of the handlers appears later to pick up the money. Reasonably, if the Warrior is slain, the Organization does not collect the fee until another Warrior successfully completes the mission. Blurring the lines of the trope, however, is the fact that while the Warriors do seem to have money (Clare once dumped a huge sum on Raki's lap when she was assigned to fight an Awakened One and Theresa could afford rather fancy clothes for a certain Tagalong Kid), they do not actually seem to want or even need the money. Their job is to kill yoma; it's what they do. Various motivations have been shown, but a pure mercenary motive has yet to be evident in any of the Warriors. | |

The Twilight Zone (1959): In "The Grave", the people of Pinto Sykes's hometown hire Conny Miller to track down and kill the outlaw so that he'll stop treating the town "like it was his personal property." After four months, Miller still hasn't found Sykes (some people suggest that he's too afraid to look very hard) and his clients form a Vigilante Militia to defeat Sykes themselves. | |

Although Wing Commander: Privateer has AI pilots referred to as bounty hunters (and the Player Character occasionally takes on jobs with the label), the actual task is never to actually capture them, just shoot them down.note On the rare occasions a bounty mission target ejects, they only show up as generic pilots, and once you land, they're just regular slaves to sell. | |

The Night of the Grizzly: Cass Dowdy will hunt for any man or beast (like a killer grizzly bear) if the price is high enough. He worked alongside Big Jim Cole and Sam Potts back when they were lawmen, but Cole claims that he'd sometimes gun down unarmed fugitives, and when one of those fugitives turned out to be innocent, Cass spent two years in prison. He resumed bounty hunting after being released from prison and wants revenge against Jim, although he is less interested in picking a fight with Big Jim than he is in claiming the bounty that Big Jim needs to save his property from foreclosure. | |

Space☆Dandy's job is a variation of this, hunting down undiscovered alien species and cashing them in to the Alien Registration Center for sizable bounties. He's generally fairly inept at this and often fails due to incompetence, bad luck or (in some cases) letting the bounty go for their own good. What exactly happens to the aliens after they're brought in for registration never specified and seems a bit inconsistent. While deliberately letting aliens he's befriended go might imply that it's something unpleasant, it could just as easily imply that Dandy is too stupid to know since Alien Registration Center are certainly not portrayed as villains. | |

Skyrim: As the Fighters Guild does not operate in Skyrim due to the presence of the Companions, the Companions fill this void instead. The Jarls of the various holds in Skyrim will often put out bounties on threats to their citizenry, including bandits, giants, and even Dragons. If you commit crimes, even if you aren't caught by the actual City Guards, those you've committed crimes against may send Hired Thugs and even Dark Brotherhood assassins after you. |

In Fallout: New Vegas, the player can pursue bounties for Fiend leaders for the NCR, who will pay for their heads. The catch is that the player must leave the head intact and recognizable (IE no headshots or any attacks that gibs/disintegrates them) or else the Major in charge of the bounties can't verify them and cannot pay you full price. | |

Stephanie Plum: The eponymous character in Janet Evanovich's series is a bounty hunter, albeit a spectacularly bad one. She's in terrible shape, dresses more Jersey Girl than SWAT, frequently has her cars blown up (and a funeral home, once), and keeps her gun unloaded in the cookie jar (not that she's licensed to carry it anyway). Pretty much everyone who works for Vincent Plum Bail Bonds falls into the same description. Luckily for them, their clients are just as woefully inept at jumping bail as they are at recovering them. In marked contrast to Stephanie, Ranger, an ex-Special Forces "primo bounty hunter" and security consultant, and his employees are uncannily competent and professional. Fortunately for Stephanie, Ranger and his "Merry Men" tend to clean up after her. Ranger jokes that his company's budget has a line-item for Stephanie's misadventures, listed under "Entertainment". |

Wax and Wayne: Wax was one of these when he went out to the Roughs. He called himself a "lawman for hire," and in his early years he was known for grabbing the most dangerous bounties off the board and coming back a few days later with the target tied up on his saddle. The truth is that in those early years, he was short on money, so he just grabbed the biggest bounties he could find. Either way, he did such a good job that when the sheriff of Weathering eventually retired, he gave Wax his badge. | |

From Avatar: The Last Airbender: In the first season, Zuko hires a female bounty hunter named June to track down the heroes. She proved to be unexpectedly popular, which lead to a couple more appearances as an ally during the series finale. Zuko also hires The Combustion Man in the third season. Though since he was only ordered to kill, makes him a hitman. While it's technically not their job, Xin Fu and Yu, a pair of professional Earthbenders, were also hired to capture Toph and return her to her parents (serving the role but never being called bounty hunters), but they had no experience bounty hunting. Xin Fu, however is willing to sell anyone out to the Fire Nation, because they pay more. This is one reason they were so unsuccessful at capturing and returning her. The other reason is that Toph Bei Fong is just too badass to be contained. Not even by metal. |

Beck, the main character of The Rundown, is a "retrieval expert" hired mainly to collect debts or other stuff that his boss wants from people, or in the case of the main plot of the movie, track down people who have cut and run and bring them back to him. He's described in many summaries as a "bounty hunter." | |

Inverted by Wrex in Mass Effect, who describes himself as a mercenary, but his actual role is much more similar to that of a bounty hunter.

Mass Effect 2 plays it a little straighter while still being flexible in the form of Zaeed Massani. The guy is described as the best bounty hunter in the business. Even when Shepard first meets him, he's cornered a Batarian bounty. (As well as shooting him in the back of the knee when he tries to run.) That said, Zaeed also co-founded the Blue Suns mercenary corporation and has fought in many battles as a soldier for hire. Ultimately, Zaeed burns this trope's candle at both ends. The only difference being if the contract in question says "capture" rather than "kill", "secure", "breach", or other more strategic terms. | |

The jobs of his that you see or he describes in-game usually involve tracking down and kidnapping or killing one person (Fist, Aleena, the unnamed volus, etc) at the behest of a private employer. He's also done bodyguarding and space piracy according to his stories, so he's pretty much an all-around hired gun. However, he found bodyguarding to be boring (but easy money, naturally) and prefers to work in smaller groups or alone, so he's arguably a Bounty Hunter foremost. Mass Effect 2 plays it a little straighter while still being flexible in the form of Zaeed Massani. The guy is described as the best bounty hunter in the business.

Star Wars: The Old Republic has an entire Bounty Hunter class, complete with its own story and companions, for the Imperial faction. You start off as a competitor in a Mandalorian Bounty Hunting competition, to hunting high-profile targets from an exclusive list and ultimately ending up as the most wanted criminal of the Galactic Republic. The Bounty Contract in-game events allow other classes to engage in this as well, capturing bounties dead or alive to earn rewards from the Bounty Hunter's Guild. |

The Lucky Luke book The Bounty Hunter (in French Chasseur de primes) is a hilarious parody of the trope. Following a short introductory treatise on the general status of bounty hunters in the Old West, we get introduced to the titular character, Elliot Belt, a notorious and unscrupulous representative of his trade. Belt's appearance is an obvious nod to Western actor Lee Van Cleef, particularly his acting roles as merciless bounty hunters. | |

The Fallout series: The Regulators in Fallout 3 are bounty killers who target evildoers and turn in their fingers for caps. Players with very good karma can join them, while evil players will be hunted by them. The Talon Company Mercs likewise are hired to hunt down players who do too many good deeds. In Fallout: New Vegas, the player can pursue bounties for Fiend leaders for the NCR, who will pay for their heads. The catch is that the player must leave the head intact and recognizable (IE no headshots or any attacks that gibs/disintegrates them) or else the Major in charge of the bounties can't verify them and cannot pay you full price. |

The Wolf, from Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, is a bounty hunter after Puss himself. He shows up with Puss' "Dead or Alive" wanted poster, his weapons of choice are a pair of sickles, and the reward he's after is Puss' soul. Since he's not actually a bounty hunter — he's the Grim Reaper — he doesn't need anything as earthly as money. | |

Attack of the Clones features Boba's father, Jango. Like Boba, he's supposedly the best bounty hunter in the galaxy. Also like Boba he operates more as an assassin and mercenary than an actual bounty hunter. Or at the very least, he's not choosy about whether the bounty he's pursuing is a legal one, so long as the credits are good.note Technically, the bounty/assassination contract he's working is legal in the eyes of the Neimoidian government, but very much illegal in the eyes of the Galactic Republic government. | |

The sequel Red Dead Redemption John is pretty much a Government Bounty Hunter, who has to hunt down the rest of his old gang dead or alive, or he'll never see his family again. Also allows the player to accept bounty hunting side-missions by collecting the Wanted Posters he finds. The player then tracks the bounty and has the choice of capturing them (for a bigger reward) or simply killing them. Also, committing crimes will create a bounty on the player himself, and bounty hunters will come after you hoping to collect. |

The BattleTech universe has numerous Bounty Hunters; the most infamous is known simply as The Bounty Hunter, an enigmatic figure who never shows his face and rarely speaks. He's famous for his relentless nature, for never once letting a bounty escape, his unfailing loyalty to his employer, the custom, form-concealing armor that he always wears, and always piloting Battlemech with a brilliant emerald-green paint job that's covered in symbols of money, with notable mechs including a Warhammer, Marauder, Mad Cat, Marauder II, and Loki II. In truth, the Bounty Hunter is a legacy of individuals who have been passing the title (and Mechs) for over a century, leading to the character frequently being described as a cross between the Dread Pirate Roberts and Boba Fett. During the Word of Blake Jihad, the Bounty Hunter betrayed his employer and seems to have been replaced by an impersonator, but as of the Dark Ages things seem to have returned closer to normal. | |

Kamen Rider OOO: In some ways, Kamen Rider Birth could be seen as a Bounty Hunter. He was hired to retrieve a huge amount of Cell Medals, and in order to get them, has to destroy Yummy or Greeed. This had shades of real world bounty hunters, who are, by law, technically hired to retrieve the bail, which is physically represented by the criminal they're capturing. | |

Pied Piper is described as one of the best bounty hunters in Shrek Forever After. He is hired by Rumpelstiltskin to capture Shrek. Piper uses a magical flute with a dial that can be set to any creature, among which are rats, witches, and ogres. When set to a creature and played, all of these within earshot start dancing uncontrollably and follow Pied Piper. | |

In The Great Silence, another Spaghetti Western, the majority of the villains are bounty hunters, and they operate exactly like assassins. The protagonist is a bounty hunter paid by the families of their victims to bring them to justice. The film is often seen as an intentional counterpoint to the Leone Westerns. | |

The Elder Scrolls: Hunting down dangerous criminals to collect the bounty on their heads is a common quest for the Fighters Guild, as seen repeatedly in Daggerfall, Morrowind, and Oblivion. Skyrim: As the Fighters Guild does not operate in Skyrim due to the presence of the Companions, the Companions fill this void instead. The Jarls of the various holds in Skyrim will often put out bounties on threats to their citizenry, including bandits, giants, and even Dragons. If you commit crimes, even if you aren't caught by the actual City Guards, those you've committed crimes against may send Hired Thugs and even Dark Brotherhood assassins after you. |

Several story events in King of the Castle involve the King offering financial compensation for the capture, dead or alive, of criminals. For example, if a region is being overrun by bandits, the King can offer a bounty for bandit scalps, or for the head of the bandits' leader. Other countries have similar policies in place, as illustrated when the Republic of Kirth sends bounty hunters to the Kingdom in pursuit of Oreid, a fugitive who offers the Kingdom a (stolen) weapons shipment in exchange for safe harbour; the King can either surrender Oreid to them or bribe them to take back a random prisoner's head. | |

In Mega Man ZX Advent, the Hunter's Guild are a bunch of bounty hunters officially sanctioned by the coalition government Legion who get paid to both recover Lost Technology and hunt down dangerous Mavericks. One of the protagonists, Ashe, was raised by Hunters at a young age after her home was destroyed by Mavericks, while the other one, Grey, was inadvertently released from his capsule by two Hunters who get killed by security bots and rescued later still from drowning by a Hunter named Billy, who makes him a Hunter so he can get in and out of Hunter's Camp and offers him a chance to come to Legion so he can possibly learn who he is. They're contrasted by the Raiders, who are effectively pirates that pillage ancient ruins for Lost Technology for themselves and deal with other "illegal" items, though even the Hunters aren't above some shady behavior, as one of the enemy Mega Men Siarnaq was a Hunter tasked as an assassin and Left for Dead by his comrades. | |

Metroid Dread begins with Adam commenting that the bounty she's receiving for the mission to ZDR doesn't seem worth the risk. In this case, her specific mission is to recover 7 missing ultra-advanced robots that have gone dark on the planet intact. It doesn't take long before the mission goes south big time and things get much more complicated than that and she ends up destroying all 7 of the robots anyway, so it's probably safe to say there wasn't much of a monetary reward for her in the end. | |

The same can be said for Metroid Prime. She didn't have to follow that distress beacon, and then chase Ridley to Tallon IV. So really, she is a technical bounty hunter (as evidenced in the opening for Super, when she decides to hunt smaller bounty), but her ties with the Chozo and the Space Pirates keep getting in the way. Thanks to the Anachronic Order, there's plenty of room in the timeline for Samus to make a healthy living catching renegades and/or killing dangerous wildlife, both of which count as "bounty hunting". There's also Metroid II: Return of Samus / Metroid: Samus Returns for the Game Boy / Nintendo 3DS, where her whole mission is to kill lots and lots of dangerous wildlife, namely the entire Metroid species, along with any creatures that get in the way. This is actually the closest example we have of Samus doing actual bounty hunting we see in the games, it just happens to be against wildlife. |

Outlaw Star deconstructs several aspects of the trope. Gene Starwind and his kid partner Jim are technically odd-job men rather than bounty hunters, not least because bounties occur far too infrequently for them to make a living on hunting alone. And in the rare case where a bounty is put out, the reward they get is usually far less than the trouble they spent on it. In the end, most of their time is spent on unrelated activities like treasure-hunting and squaring off against the pirate clans. | |

Lots of Richard K. Morgan's characters, including but not limited to Takeshi Kovacs from the Takeshi Kovacs series and Carl Marsalis from Thirteen, fall into some flavor of this trope. Kovacs is an ex-UN Special Forces operator who works as a private investigator, mercenary, and general hired gun, while Marsalis is ex-British Special Forces who specializes in hunting down genetically modified people on behalf of the government. Neither is a particularly nice guy, but then again, they don't inhabit very nice worlds either. | |

Necromunda: The game's underhive is the most common destination for outlaws and mutants, making it a rich hunting ground for those wishing to make some credits bringing these degenerates to justice. Due to their skill and fighting powers Bounty Hunters have been a popular Hired Gun in every edition of the game, with the game's 3rd Edition in particular including detailed rules for various types of Bounty Hunter as well as a number of named character Bounty Hunters. The May 2018 issue of White Dwarf included exclusive rules for using Venator Bands for 3rd Edition Necromunda. Venator Bands are elite gangs of Bounty Hunters who band together for protection, to track down the most lucrative bounties or for more esoteric and near-religious reasons. The rules for these gangs also include rules for including Bounty Hunters from specific Houses. |

In Grim Prairie Tales, Morrison is a bounty hunter who does not seem to know where he is going, but who is carrying the body of his latest kill with him. At the end of the film, Deeds points out that the body does not match the description on the wanted poster. Morrison killed the wrong man. | |

Velith Il-nok of The Sirantha Jax Series is definitely a stand-up individual who is in the profession for the good it does rather than just getting paid. It's interesting in that, even while being alien, he is more "human" than some actual human characters. | |

Almost all ninjas in Naruto, good or evil, are this in one way or another. Successful ninja almost invariably have somebody who will put a bounty on their head, be it the legitimate government of a rival nation or a criminal organization. And capturing criminals is one of the many missions that a ninja could be hired for. | |

Granblue Fantasy nods to this with the "Bounty" status effect, which can be stacked on an enemy to increase the chance of getting a chest with good loot from defeating them. The skills available to the player that increase the bounty level on an enemy are even outright called "Bounty Hunter". | |

Z'xorv from Cosmic Star Heroine is a green-skinned Humanoid Alien who attacks the protagonist Alyssa for a bounty put on her head, gets defeated by her and joins her few minutes later seeking a bounty put on a Humongous Mecha she too is seeking to stop. He later joins her as a permanent party member, again due to their overlapping goals. With him in your party you can recruit another bounty hunter who is not a part of a shore party but does provide status buffs when chosen for support. | |

In The Hateful Eight, two main characters are bounty hunters with differing methods: Major Marquis Warren, a black former Union soldier who prefers to shoot first and turn in the bodies, and John "The Hangman" Ruth, who is famous for his insistence on delivering his prisoners alive so he can watch them stand trial and hang. When they meet each other at the start of the film in a snow-covered wilderness, Major Warren is sitting in the middle of the road on top of the frozen bodies of three dead criminals, while Ruth is riding in a stagecoach with his fugitive Daisy Domergue handcuffed to him to prevent her escape. | |

Bounty hunters are fairly commonplace in the Cursed Earth in Judge Dredd, due to the legal structure of the region being a lot looser than in Mega City One. A couple of them are even ex Judges, one of whom is on his Long Walk having taken to the bottle on the job and being forced to resign and another who was exiled for a minor mutation that led to her having a third kidney. | |

The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie introduced Dennis the bounty hunter, who was out to kill SpongeBob on Plankton's orders. Although his method of murder was stomping people with a cartoony spiked boot, Dennis was a surprisingly menacing villain. He states he has other ways he could do it, but his employer specifically told him to kill them in that fashion. Makes sense considering the employer was Plankton, who gets stepped on... a lot. | |

Blake's 7. Given that the crew had a Price on Their Head, plus Chris Boucher's fondness for Western themes, these made an obligatory appearance. In "Bounty", the Liberator is seized by the Amagons, Space Pirates who engage in a variety of criminal activities including bounty hunting. In "Powerplay", Zee and Barr are the nicest and prettiest bounty hunters you could meet. Pity their job is capturing people so they can be dissected for their Human Resources. In "Blake", the planet Gauda Prime is a Crapsack World where all laws have been suspended by the Federation High Council, in order to kill or drive off the colonists who legally owned the land. This naturally attracted a large number of criminals and psychopaths who now have to be disposed of before law and order can be reintroduced, so they're being used as bounty hunters to catch or kill their fellow lawbreakers. Our rebel anti-heroes are not pleased to hear that Blake, ostensibly their leader but who's been missing for the past couple of seasons, is now working as one of these bounty hunters. It turns out he's secretly recruiting another rebel force from among the criminals he's capturing. |

Vermintide II: A possible career option for Victor Saltzpyre. Though squishier than a Witch Hunter Captain and less effective in melee combat, his talent toolkit centers around ranged attacks; he gets guaranteed critical hits and his ultimate ability has him shoot a Sawed-Off Shotgun for colossal damage. If this class is chosen, it's the end result of Victor calling out his superiors in the Order of the Silver Hammer for covering up the existence of the Skaven and allowing them to run rampant instead of prioritizing them; though technically Victor remains a sanctioned Witch Hunter, he has taken matters into his own hands and begun funding a private war against the Skaven by collecting bounties and hunting down difficult targets for the coin. | |

In the Astro City legal system, some superheroes make a living by registering as bounty hunters with the local authorities. They are sanctioned to capture criminals (super-powered and otherwise), and are paid by picking up checks made out to their real identities (which are kept secret from the public). | |

Harlan Nayl from the Eisenhorn and Ravenor books was originally a bounty hunter before becoming an agent of the Inquisition. His fellow agent Zeph Mathuin is also a former bounty hunter, and one of Nayl’s old bounty hunting partners, Lucius Worna, is a major villain in the Ravenor trilogy. | |

Vampire Hunter D is a sort of the old west-style bounty hunter - albeit of a very specific type of quarry. Though as the books and The Movies went on, he evolved from bounty hunter to a mercenary, or even an odd-job man. There's other bounty hunters in the canon, but they're usually of the sadistic type. | |

Red Dead Revolver includes the protagonist Red as a bounty hunter of the heroic type. The sequel Red Dead Redemption John is pretty much a Government Bounty Hunter, who has to hunt down the rest of his old gang dead or alive, or he'll never see his family again. Also allows the player to accept bounty hunting side-missions by collecting the Wanted Posters he finds. The player then tracks the bounty and has the choice of capturing them (for a bigger reward) or simply killing them. Also, committing crimes will create a bounty on the player himself, and bounty hunters will come after you hoping to collect. And again for the prequel. And again for its online multiplayer component, where Bounty Hunter is a full-on role with its own unique perks and missions. |

Star Wars Legends: The Han Solo Trilogy: A number of them are sent after Han over stealing from the Besilijic clan, including Boba Fett, who becomes his nemesis. Bria is also hunted for freeing many Besadii slaves. Honor Among Thieves: Baasen Ray is a former smuggler and colleague of Han's, who has turned to bounty hunting after smuggling work dried up. Specifically, he is after the price placed on Han's head by Jabba the Hutt, and in fact convinced Jabba to pay a portion in advance by claiming he'd already captured Han and needed funds to get him back to Tatooine. He's desparate to get his hands on Han, lest Jabba come after him next. For all that, Han is able to convince him to join forces by promising greater rewards from the device everyone is after. Shadows of the Empire: Luke is captured by a group of bounty hunters. Then it turns out they have competing bounties from Black Sun vs the Empire, the former wanting Luke dead, the latter alive. He escapes as they're waiting out the bidding war which it sparks for him. |

Chicago Justice: The Spanish government sends one to arrest a young woman based on Amanda Know and return her so she can be tried again on murder charges. Realistically, this is quite unlikely, since it would damage relations with the US. The US and Spain have an extradition treaty already (which they are shown invoking later) so going outside official channels like this makes no sense given that too. | |

Mega Man: Bounty hunters are recurring antagonists in the Mega Man X series, with Dynamo in X5 and X6, Red Alert in X7, and Spider in Mega Man X: Command Mission. In Mega Man ZX Advent, the Hunter's Guild are a bunch of bounty hunters officially sanctioned by the coalition government Legion who get paid to both recover Lost Technology and hunt down dangerous Mavericks. One of the protagonists, Ashe, was raised by Hunters at a young age after her home was destroyed by Mavericks, while the other one, Grey, was inadvertently released from his capsule by two Hunters who get killed by security bots and rescued later still from drowning by a Hunter named Billy, who makes him a Hunter so he can get in and out of Hunter's Camp and offers him a chance to come to Legion so he can possibly learn who he is. They're contrasted by the Raiders, who are effectively pirates that pillage ancient ruins for Lost Technology for themselves and deal with other "illegal" items, though even the Hunters aren't above some shady behavior, as one of the enemy Mega Men Siarnaq was a Hunter tasked as an assassin and Left for Dead by his comrades. |

Metroid: Samus Aran is usually described as a bounty hunter, although "mercenary" or even "Privateer" would probably be a more accurate job description, as her primary employer appears to be the Galactic Federation and the jobs they assign her usually tend toward infiltrations, search-and-destroy, and other military operations. Metroid: To drive the point home, the FDS version places a bag of money next to completed game files. Other "bounty hunters" with vastly different motivations appear in the aptly named Metroid Prime: Hunters and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. Samus' missions for the Feds typically take the form of "kill X", where X is the enemy du jour. This makes her description as a bounty hunter slightly more accurate, as a bounty is paid for the things she kills. The only exceptions to the "kill X" missions are Metroid Prime 3, Hunters, and Metroid Fusion. Prime 2 can be an inferred mission: she's told to investigate the disappearance of a GF Space Marine squad, and she's "hired" by the Luminoth to eradicate the Ing. Super Metroid is debatable, since she's doing it all of her own accord (she doesn't have to chase Ridley down and get the baby Metroid back... but that's what she wants to do). The same can be said for Metroid Prime. She didn't have to follow that distress beacon, and then chase Ridley to Tallon IV. So really, she is a technical bounty hunter (as evidenced in the opening for Super, when she decides to hunt smaller bounty), but her ties with the Chozo and the Space Pirates keep getting in the way. Thanks to the Anachronic Order, there's plenty of room in the timeline for Samus to make a healthy living catching renegades and/or killing dangerous wildlife, both of which count as "bounty hunting". There's also Metroid II: Return of Samus / Metroid: Samus Returns for the Game Boy / Nintendo 3DS, where her whole mission is to kill lots and lots of dangerous wildlife, namely the entire Metroid species, along with any creatures that get in the way. This is actually the closest example we have of Samus doing actual bounty hunting we see in the games, it just happens to be against wildlife. Incidentally, Retro Studios planned on having Samus fulfill more of a bounty-hunting role in Prime 3, namely by having the player pick out actual bounties to go after. The higher-ups vetoed this, in part because of the Genre Shift it would entail and in part because Samus doesn't really fit the role of bounty hunter to a T. The guys at Retro jokingly referred to her as a "pro-bono hunter" instead. Allegedly, the people at Nintendo got the label "bounty hunter" from Star Wars and applied it to Samus thinking it just sounded like she was a cool space adventurer, while not actually knowing what it meant until Retro Studios informed them of its actual meaning during the development of Metroid Prime, to their shock. Metroid Dread begins with Adam commenting that the bounty she's receiving for the mission to ZDR doesn't seem worth the risk. In this case, her specific mission is to recover 7 missing ultra-advanced robots that have gone dark on the planet intact. It doesn't take long before the mission goes south big time and things get much more complicated than that and she ends up destroying all 7 of the robots anyway, so it's probably safe to say there wasn't much of a monetary reward for her in the end. |

Criminals the NOL want to capture are given bounties which anyone can turn in (although it's noted that their bounties don't always tally with the threat the individual presents and they may or may not be of the "dead or alive" variety) and the NOL allows citizens to collect them (they even offer a service where they dispatch an agent to collect the bounty and freely teach otherwise restricted ar magus which can be used to bind criminals and drag them to the nearest NOL outpost). | |

Hitman 3 dabbles in this slightly in Freelancer mode of the World of Assassination trilogy. With no more International Contract Agency to turn to for eliminating dangerous criminals, clients looking for justice against crime syndicates now resort to placing open contracts or bounties on the dark web for anyone to take up and either kill or apprehend the syndicate leaders. Agent 47, newly unemployed and now a freelance assassin looking for work, accepts the contracts and pursues the bounties on the heads of the leaders, and with his background as a hitman, he just goes straight to killing the criminals and collecting the money. | |

In Lupin III: Dead or Alive, when Crisis puts out the "Dead or Alive" bounty on Lupin, at least three bounty hunters enter Zufu to attempt to capture/kill him. Lupin is so busy trying to escape from them that Inspector Zenigata manages to arrest him. | |

Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers: Shane is accused of being this by his fellow Supertroopers, who went renegade while he stayed loyal to Earth. The truth is harsher; the only reason Earth didn't throw Shane in cryo or kill him was because of Takes One to Kill One, and they wanted the others hunted down. | |

Revolution: Jacob from "Chained Heat", Mia Clayton from "Ties That Bind", and Steve from "Home". Jacob was spared by Miles at Charlie's urging, Jacob repays that by revealing their location to the militia, and Miles kills him off later on. Mia Clayton, despite being Nora Clayton's sister, proved to be extremely selfish, sold out her sister's friends to the militia, and Nora decided to just abandon her and let her walk back to Texas on her own. Steve tried to bring in Priscilla Pittman, whose only crime was killing a militia sergeant who tried to molest her 11-year-old-daughter in self-defense, but between Aaron and her, he got killed off. This show portrays bounty hunters in an extremely unsympathetic light. | |
