James Horton
James Horton is the main antagonist of the Highlander TV series. He was a Watcher and the leader of the Hunters, a faction of renegade Watchers that sought to wipe out all Immortals, whom they considered abominations that had to be destroyed. From 1981 to 1985 he had been the Watcher of The Kurgan, one of the most brutal Immortals ever recorded, which may have influenced Horton's belief that Immortals had to be eliminated. Funny enough, he himself became the abomination, as he risked the lives of the loved ones of Immortals just so he could eliminate them, resulting in his drive to insanity. Additionally, his assignment following the Kurgan was Blake Wilmington, who according to Watcher records, perpetrated a brutal massacre at an amusement park in 1988.
Highlights and Strenghts
James Horton is the only playable Mortal character in Highlander the card game. As such, he has a small card set, no MCBC, and he cannot use quickenings in his Pregame. He does have some really strong in game cards and is actually a top tier playable character. His Hilt and AT Hilt meld can get around many control themes making deck design easy. His attack Manipulative Strike is one of the best in the game, but to keep things balanced, he cannot use it in decks that use his Hilt. Finally, his Persona Specific Head Shot is an excellent card that will take heads.
