Hunters

The hunters of Khorinis are independent men and women who make their living in the island's wilderness. They hunt wolves, scavengers, lurkers, and other creatures, skin pelts, hack claws, and collect trophies to sell to merchants like the bowyer Bosper. Some, like Bartok and Dragomir, have camps near the Dead Harpy tavern, while Grimbald lives as a recluse in the mountains near the Black Troll and Niclas has retreated to a hillside above the city. Gaan works as a hunter for the farmer Bengar, Grom chops wood and hunts near Onar's farm, and the herbalist Sagitta lives in seclusion in the forest behind Sekob's farm, serving as healer to the rural population. Since the fall of the Barrier and the orc incursion, hunting has become far more dangerous – many hunters have retreated to the city or abandoned their camps. Those still out in the wild teach travelers hunting skills for a fee: from archery and crossbow use to butchering all manner of creatures.
