You have sworn the Oath — a binding vow that marks you as one of the few willing to stalk the horrors born of the Blight and the Void. You hunt not for sport or coin alone, but to protect those who cannot protect themselves from what lurks beyond the firelight. Where others see monsters, you see purpose.
Those who have taken the Oath are known as OathBearers, their senses sharpened and instincts honed to rival the beasts they pursue. The oath is not merely words; it is a sacrifice of blood, will, and mercy. You’ve learned to track the scent of corruption through wind and rain, to hear the faintest tremor of something unnatural stirring in the dark. The line between hunter and hunted blurs, yet you press on — for to hesitate is to die, and to forget the oath is to become the very thing you swore to destroy.

Contacts
Feature: Oathbound Contact
You maintain contact with a seasoned hunter or mentor within the Obsidian Oath who once guided you through your initiation. They serve as your tether to the order, offering information about contracts, rumors of strange beasts, or warnings of void corruption spreading nearby. While they seldom intervene directly, their knowledge can mean the difference between a clean kill and an early grave.
