Melkor could take whatever form he pleased at that time. If he wanted to instill fear, he might have used a shadow form to make the Quendi afraid of the coming of Orome. Or he might have sent one of his numerous servants. In any case, the title 'Hunter' seems unnecessary; there is nothing there to suggest the shadow who followed the Quendi was anyone special just for or because of that task; or that it couldn't have been Melkor, or more likely Sauron himself.
