Vampire Hunter

The Vampire Hunter is a popular profession in Noctura due to its escalating increase in Vampiric activity. Though the Ruler of Noctura, Prince Dracos von Nightscape, has given them protection and right they too must respect the laws of their people and of Noctura. Because of this the Vampire Hunter order was created to seek and eliminate Vampire threats to the citizens of Noctura as well as those of the Vampire race.

This understanding has allowed some Vampiric citizens to live safely but be warn to those who break the laws or step their bounds as vampires regardless if in their nature those that kill to endanger the citizens of Noctura and the vampire race will have to deal with the Vampire Hunters. Though it would seem that the Vampire Hunter is one of the few race slayers that can be easily taught with out difficulty it is with good intentions to serve the people and the vampire races of Noctura.

As a Vampire Hunter even though your journey may take you down different paths is to eventually eliminate vampires. Though those of Good alignment may do this for religion or purifying acts and those Neutral do as ordered it is those with dark intent that tend to cross the line and hunt the vampire race for vengeance or hatred.

Also, it must be noted that vampires are not hunted just because they are vampires. Those vampires that are targeted are normally because they have proven to be quite dangerous to society. I.E., randomly killing citizens, insanity, etc.

Once snared the Vampire Hunter makes a Power Attribute roll and the enemy must make a Reflex roll and beat the power roll to untangle their legs every 5ft they are dragged. However if the enemy appears 5ft in front of the Vampire Hunter that uses this technique the moment they are in range the Vampire Hunter may unleash an attack with his free hand and a second automatic attack with the whip untangling it and lashing out at the proned enemy. Of coarse this depends if the target is near and the Trip attack was successful.
