I am the hunter the Gods have sent.” That was all the Bloodhound said.

According to Apex Legends Wiki, Bloodhound is the only Legends which has a role as a technological tracker. That means it can find out the location of nearby enemies and trace the tracks left by the enemies.

Unfortunately, there’s not the slightest information regarding Bloodhound’s real name, gender, age, and world. That’s because Bloodhound’s identity is a mystery which is wrapped in layers of rumors.

Even though its identity is unknown until now, everyone really knows that Bloodhound is a force to be reckoned with in Apex Games. However, the Bloodhound’s unmatched tracking skills are a boon to any team they join which can  help them root out hidden opponents and track enemy movements.

When you use them, summoning Old Norse Gods on Earth is a must to guide them. Need to know that Bloodhound believes that destiny is a predetermined path, which ultimately leads to death. But with that knowledge comes strength, for until that day, Bloodhounds know they can’t be stopped.

Where Does Bloodhound Come From?

In this case, if you want to know where Bloodhound originally comes from, you surely can identify from their accent when they state. As you know, there’s a phrase Bloodhound revealed, as we mentioned above. Sure, as a pro Apex Legends player, you may already know where they come from.

Thankfully, lore about Bloodhound reveals its accent which refers more to Icelandic accent. So, is it possible that the Bloodhound came from Icelandic? No one can really ensure the original nation of Bloodhound, as the Icelandic accent is not clear out at all.

However, there are some clues why Bloodhound inclines more like an Icelandic. When Bloodhound calls themself ‘Bloth Hoondr’ or ‘Blóðhundur’, we think the sound is likely how you would say Bloodhound in Icelandic.

When Bloodhound says “slatra” in their trailer, it means slaughter in Icelandic. Bloodhound always says ‘andskoti’ to enemies which means ‘devil’ in Icelandic. It also refers to Bloodhound’s raven/teammates as ‘Felagi Fighter(s)’ which derives from the Old Norse word ‘Félagi’ which means companion or comrade in Icelandic.

However, Allfather, as one of Bloodhound’s abilities, is a commonly used moniker for the Norse god Odin. Moreover, Bloodhound is also often seen with a Raven which likely refers to Huginn and Muninn. In this case, Ravens come from Norse mythology which travel the world and deliver the information they find to Odin.

The point is, Bloodhounds expectedly come from Icelandic.
