~ The Seeker |
The Seeker is the main villain of The Host. She is one of the aliens called the "Souls" who invaded the earth by possessing humans in the invasion.
The Seeker is one of the invading Souls and the main antagonist of the story. When Wanderer a.k.a. Wanda (one of her former soul comrades and a major protagonist in the story) awakes in Melanie's body (another protagonist and a human), the Seeker has been assigned to her so that she can try and locate the remnants of the Human resistance, whom she believes are prepared to fight a war against the souls. The basis of Wanda and Melanie's relationship comes from their common hatred towards the Seeker. The Seeker follows Wanda everywhere, believing that she can help her find the humans.
