Caliban is a powerful and rare Meso-Titan who possesses the fury of an Aztec warrior. This masked warrior, like the lion, represented power and fierceness to the Aztec people. Due to Caliban's strong will, only a very strong and talented Seeker can bond with this Titan. Caliban is closely related to the Caliban Ocean Warrior Titans used by the Casterwill family.

History

Caliban inspired many legends about mighty warriors and vengeful spirits in Central America based on the sightings of these Titans by the native people, particularly the Aztecs. Huntik.com Two of the Aztec rulers used two Caliban Amulets in order to conquer their enemies to expand their empires. HM#01

One Caliban Amulet was later found by the Huntik Foundation operative Simon Judeau who used it to save the life of his friend Metz at the Temple of Tecobai. S1E25 Metz eventually obtained Simon's Amulet and later gave it to his young charge, Dante Vale. S1E19 Dante took more than a year to learn how to summon and use Caliban in battle because this Titan is hard to control due to its willful and aggressive nature. source? Caliban, having powers rivaling even some Legendary Titans, requires a vast amount of energy from his Seeker, and through training, under his old martial art's mentor, Master Storm, Dante went from only being able to summon Caliban for about a minute to being able to summon the Titan for longer durations. source?

Abilities

Other new abilities include Rayflector, Leaping Slash, and Breaking Charge.
