::With the demon hunter we found inspiration in characters like Van Helsing, Boba Fett, and even MacGyver. The demon hunter is very focused on conventional, man-made weaponry and gadgets. She dual-wields crossbows, and where one class might conjure a magical fireball, the demon hunter would buy a device in the lower markets of Caldeum that would allow her to trap the essence of a demon and then release that essence in an explosive blast, not unlike a hand grenade. She has no qualms about using her enemies against themselves, dabbling in dark magic, and generally doing whatever it takes to destroy demons wherever they live.
===Male Demon Hunter===

The male Demon Hunter wasn't ready to be shown at Blizzcon 2010, just like the female Monk wasn't ready at Blizzcon 2009. She was revealed early in 2010, and expectations are that the male Demon Hunter will be added in early 2011.
@Diablo teased this in a tweet on January 13, 2011. [http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/male-demon-hunter-coming-soon/]
::How’s the male DH progressing? -DonGuillotine
::He’s doing well. He’s supposed to be stopping by sometime next week actually. We’ll see. You know how he is. -Diablo
::If we can come up with a great idea for a melee build then we’ll definitely do that as long as it doesn’t detract from the core of who she is as a character.
