The Valipsyrid Exterminators were a band of Outlanders who inhabited the plateau and cliffs of Yak'koli before the construction of the Upper City. Their legacy is kept alive by the Idpari Skydivers, who still wear the style of gear the Exterminators did for certain rites and ceremonies.
Exterminators tended to work lifelong—labor in youth and logistics with age—to keep a vigilant eye not just for ramscorpions, but for other dangers of the Kajh-Tai Region
Gear: The exterminators were outfitted with climbing and caving gear. They also had a selection of enchanted weapons to choose from, with spells focused on dispatching Rutas.
Structure: The exterminators were closely integrated into the tribal laws of the Outlanders, and were involved in making choices on where to foral, where to hunt, where to farm, and where to build. They recruited young, and it was normal for someone to hold onto the job until middle age, at which it was normal for them to retire into a less demanding and lethal role
Training: The exterminators hunted in packs, tracking and guiding ramscorpions to booby-trapped locations
Famous Hunts: The Trapjaw Spider Hive • day of the saprov ants
Protecting livestock
Aeolamen trainers: To communicate across positions, they would send raptorhounds to send communications or rescue. It was common to allow the hounds to roam freely, as they would notify of any rutas attacks
Verin Population: Many of the Skydivers are Verin, and many Exterminators relied more on meta than is usually seen from the profession
