Siddharth Bachchan[1] (싯다르트 밧찬) was the strongest hunter in India and one of the five National Level Hunters, ranking 4th in the world.[2]

Personality

In the original timeline, Siddharth was described by Liu Zhigang as someone with a strong savior complex, which led him to use his powers to protect people even when they never asked for it.[3] He was also incredibly ambitious and desired to elevate himself in status as a hunter.[4]

History

Ragnarok

Several decades later in the revised timeline, Siddharth would regain his powers and his status as one of the strongest hunters in the world. Due to being a former host of a higher being, Siddharth's memories of the previous timeline returned to him naturally. Siddharth thinking he was the only one who could remember the previous timeline, believed himself to be divinely chosen and had a role to play in humanity's future.

However he sought to restore his former power as a National Level Hunter. That desire led him to become a willing victim to the corruption of the Apostles who promised him power as long as he became a willing host. While he agreed to be a host, his new allies required more hosts for their kind.

Siddharth knowing of Sung Jinwoo role in the previous timeline as its savior, and believing he could capture him and offer him to the Apostles attempted to locate the hunter, but to his dismay was unable to find a trace of the man.

Due to this he was forced to abandon his plans, and develop a new one of using the essence of the extinct dragons to create dragon-human hybrids that would be suitable hosts for the Apostles. However despite the disappearance of his quarry, Siddharth maintained an interest over Korea.[5]
