Nomadic Hunter

Career

Qualifications

A Hunter needs some skill in a form of weapon in order to be competent at this sort of job. The best can wield more than one type of weapon.

The Hunter also needs to be able to travel long distances on their own with minimal support from others.

Payment & Reimbursement

Rewards for creature hunts posted on wanted boards are often decent, but never enough for a Hunter to rest on their laurels and stay in one place for long periods of time. Many need to hunt everyday creatures and sell their parts just to make ends meet.

Perception

Purpose

Nomadic Hunters go where they are needed and help those who are in danger of creature attacks. In the farther reaches of Ostrium, they are often the faster response than the Army, and are paid as such.

Social Status

Despite the necessity of their role, many even among the Nomads do not look highly upon Hunters. While there are always the exceptions to the rules, most are looked down on with contempt for doing "the dirty work of society" and making a living off of it.

Operations

Provided Services

Dangerous creature attacks have been on the rise in the past two decades, giving Hunters more and more opportunity to ply their trade. Not that any of them are happy to see these creatures end up in situations where they need to be killed to save the people living there, too, of course.

Hazards

Many of the creatures that Hunters deal with, much of the time solo, would typically require a full hunting party of eight to twelve men from a village to take down. As such, while seasoned Hunters are capable of handling the threat levels, deaths among new Hunters are on the rise.
