Wild Hunt
The Howling Wind
The wind howls as an army of hunters races across an unforgiving sky. An undead hoard seeks out freshly deceased souls to add to their company, headed by a beautiful antlered Fey.
Valiant and restless souls and taken to join the eternal hunt across the skies, felling grand creatures and, in recent years, fighting against the horrors of the Murkmire. The Wild Hunt has been a fact of Ustremmel for as long as the Fey have existed. Led by a Grand Hunter or Grand Huntress, the Wild Hunt streaks across the skies, traveling to the site of recently fought battles. While the Wild Hunt is not considered evil, their concentration of Fey members leads to high cruelty with their prey.
It's said that whenever the wind howls, the Wild Hunt is drawing near. If one answers the winds call with their own, they will catch the Wild Hunt's attention. Sometimes the mortal will be given a gift, but it's more likely they will be kidnapped to join the other hunters.
Structure
The Wild Hunt is chaotic in structure and is filled with different hunters constantly fighting and asserting themselves over each other. At the top, the beautiful figure of Frau stands as the Grand Huntress of the group. She decides what prey the Hunt will pursue and handles punishment for those who disobey her orders.
Culture
The Wild Hunt is built predominately of ancient Fey and skilled warriors and hunters from the other races that have fallen to either battle or prey. The Hunt has a cruel way of living, braving cold and uncomfortable environments with determination and stubbornness. They care little about the living world around them, concentrating solely on the prey they are stalking.
