Zhethrh'ithar Hunter
Little is known of these mysterious hunter cultists from beyond the great ocean.
Almost human in appearance but rather thin, tall, frail looking with black hair and pale skin color. The most notable feature of these 'hunters' is their deformed faces. Having no eyes or even eye sockets, instead of a nose having long slits where it should be then with a small taut mouth.
They don't seem to be a race you recognize or have heard of before. Even their clothing seems to be from a culture unlike anything you have seen in your travels so far. Yet they are without a doubt of the same species or race as the Monk Cultists.
Wearing what appears to be a mixture of some sort of strange animal leather and bone armor with long dark hooded cloaks. Armed with an abnormal looking sword of unknown design. Made from a bizarre metal that has distinctive and complex patterns of banding and mottling reminiscent of flowing water, sometimes in a "ladder" or "rose" pattern. This metal seems to be of a far superior quality, stronger and much sharper than even the best swords in the land.
Moving with accelerated speed, blending into their surroundings, deadly sword skills, extremely agile and their uncanny ability of tracking prey makes them a very deadly hunter. Always waiting for the best moment to set deadly traps and to ambush their prey with amazing expertise. Most times the fight is over even before the victim realizes what is happening.
There is plenty of speculation that these hunters process some form of unnatural abilities to track, see and know their surroundings due to the facial mutations. They are never surprised, always able to see in even the darkest environments and rumors of them even being able to see anything invisible. Their sense of smell is very heightened and once they pick up a scent, they will easily track it endlessly.
