Demon Hunter
A lone night elf clutching a pair of curved blades, peers to the
ground as enemies surround him on all sides, before leaping
backwards over the heads of his enemies, swinging his
swords at one of them in the process.
A blood elf sprints to the distant aid of her allies, a pair of
heavy warglaives in her hands, she releases the fel within,
leaving a trail of fire in her path as she rushes at inhumane
speed to their aid to jump on the nearest enemy.
A heavily built human standing afar as his allies engage a
massive demon, in two swift motions he effortlessly slings his
warglaives through the air at the demon, making deep gouges
in its hide before returning to his firm grasp.
These hunters have sworn their life to a sacred cause,
although their motivation may vary, demon hunters are one of
Azeroth's most fearless defenders, these agile hunters carry
exceptional skill against the foe they face. They wield both
superhuman strength and the devastating effects of fel magic,
carrying out both with extreme precision.
Feared and Revered
Society often shun demon hunters. Most don't understand
the sacrifice that they make, therefore, many choose to
become outcasts from their societies. Eyes are commonly
turned at them when they wade through towns, most distrust
and fear them for what they have become.
Even though most of the world is untrusting of demon
hunters, it matters not to the hunters themselves, because
they are protectors of the common folk against the threat of
the Burning Legion. They are not righteous like paladins that
fight for the Holy Light, or selfless like some rogues and
warriors. They are the force that battles evil and although
shunned by society, their aid is appreciated by experienced
fighters.
Power Granted for a Price
Demon hunters are not trained like warriors are, they are
created. It is a harsh and incurable process, leaving scars on
the individual that will never heal. Most who attempt to
undergo the rites to become a demon hunter end up dying
from the horrors of what now possess them, or kills
themselves because of what they have seen.
At the very core of becoming a demon hunter is the
consumption of a demon's soul in a ceremony, forever binding
it to the demon hunter and suppressing it from taking control
through magical inscriptions on the hunters skin, infused
with fel. Finishing the binding of the soul to the demon hunter
by burning out their eyes with a magically imbued blade,
forever binding the chaotic soul of the demon to the hunter.
Other processes are done to create a demon hunter, slowly
creating a demon hunter by removing much of who they were
in their past lives.
Creating a Demon Hunter
As you make your demon hunter character, consider why
your character decided to undergo the deadly rituals. Were
your family slaughtered by demons of the Burning Legion?
Did you strive for greater power through fel and how to
control it? Were you full of rage and anger and wished to put
it to use beyond raw strength? Perhaps you went through
their rituals unwillingly, and by a miracle survived the
demons attempts to take control? Think of the demon
hunters that put you through the rituals and did the rites on
you, your relationship to them, are you angry at them for what
they have done? pleased with their accomplishment?
