Wild Hunters are solitary trackers and survivalists who feel most at home in the wilderness. Raised by the land or by a community of like-minded individuals, they have honed their skills in the harshest environments. Whether it’s dense forests, high mountains, or desolate deserts, Wilderness Hunters are experts at navigating the untamed world. They understand the rhythms of nature, recognize the signs left by creatures, and can survive in the most inhospitable places with minimal resources.

Having spent years honing their craft, these hunters are often hired to track dangerous creatures, locate lost travelers, or scout unexplored wilderness. They are intimately familiar with natural dangers—both predators and the elements—and know how to use the environment to their advantage. Their connection to the wild runs deep; they treat nature with reverence and follow a personal code of survival that emphasizes balance and respect.

While they may appear solitary and quiet, their deep knowledge of the land allows them to read the world around them in ways others cannot. Whether hunting for food, guiding others through perilous lands, or protecting sacred wild places, Wilderness Hunters always live in harmony with the land they call home.
