Order of the Hunger

When one walks the path of using the power of evil to destroy evil few options are drastic as those that introduce the Hunger into themselves to enhance their abilities. In an ancient and dark blood rite, Blood Hunters of this order consume that which consumes- they imbibe the blood of a vampire, mixing it with their own in a process that produces a cursed half-living half-undead hunter. Though horrific, the Hunger grants them strength and powers that allow them effective machines of destruction, hunting and destroying what haunts the shadows. If they don't become what haunts the shadows.
