I have
this working theory that a steef is actually more or less
a natural bounty hunter. In other words Stranger is sort of
like some sort of half wildlife half inteligant life. Evidence
of my theory is the fact that Stranger is being hunted by
the Grub Hunters and poachers. Why? Maybe because of his horns
and a steef's horns are a most prized item to the hunters.
The Hunters and poachers are industrial bounty hunters and
Steef is natural. Which once again is another way on how the
industrial world is hurting the natural world for profit.
If you ask me this next game remindes me of how elephant poachers
go after elephants for their tusks for a bounty or profit.
I believe its a similar fashion in
Stranger. Stranger is the elephant and well the Grub Hunters
are the poachers. Stranger is inteligant but uses the natural
world around him to hunt his bounty for food or something.
Thus useing the enviroment. And the grub Hunters use industrial
means to hunt down their bounty for well moolah. And where
would this Moolah go to? Possably a different member in the
octigi family like that one Octigi with arms we saw in that
early concept. I have this feeling we might see those to be
like the next breed of glukkon in this game. But its only
a theory.

You all have good theories but I think Stranger
is more in touch with nature than we think.
I remember seeing a large picture of Stranger
in his animalistic form meditating in the forest on the X-factor
special. Right away I got the feeling that maybe the Scuba
Toads or Natives (looking as wisdomful as they do) were teaching
him the ways of nature, how the creatures of the forest could
aid him in his constant onslaught of evil poachers, and how
he could use the elements of the environment to help him thwart
the Outlaw Bosses.
But that's just me...
