Eclipsed Hunter (Novostya)

Dedicated to the eradication of all dark magic, you have sworn yourself to the oldest order devoted to Leiad in existence- the Eclipsed Hunters. The Eclipsed Hunters have long been the leading expedition in driving out Maeas's evil and combatting the plague that is arcane magic. You are one of many hunters of the occult, though that's not to say you are without compassion, usually. The Eclipsed Hunters are much more akin to a Knightly Order instead of the mercenary company its name suggests.

No matter how you choose to join this somber order, you undoubtedly have some rank or history with the Hunters. Are you a simple initiate, who's naive eyes are brimming with hope with your first outside expedition? Or are you a time-hardened veteran, who's witnessed firsthand the power of dark magic and is determined to stop the corruption once and for all?

Skill Proficiencies: Athletics, Survival

Languages: Two Exotic Languages of your choice

Equipment: An insignia of rank, a book containing information about your former and current expeditions, a set of traveler's clothes, and a pouch containing 10 gp

Suggested Characteristics

Being an extension of the Eclipsed Hunters is no easy feat. In fighting what remains of Maeas's corruption and the Twilight Coven, you have experienced horrors beyond mortal comprehension. Their corruption stops at nothing, and sooner or later, it will leave its mark on you.
