Ranger
- "Through field and forest, I will track my prey."
Men and women of the wilderness, rangers come to know the world better than most others. Over time, their understanding of the world transcends its material boundaries, and they glean the ability to channel the elemental forces at work behind the mountains and valleys they call home.
Able combatants, rangers combine the powers of geomancy with martial skill into a seamless whole, using their gifts to augment their martial skills and to enhance their ability to hunt their quarries. Rangers come from a variety of martial backgrounds, though archers and dual-wielders are among the most common sorts of rangers encountered.
Rangers excel at hunting particular creatures, and as they glean knowledge of the natural world with experience, their ability to combat particular types of foes also improves. Since the Omega was defeated, more and more vilekin have resurfaced throughout the world, and now - more than ever - are the skills of rangers called for.
