Shade hunter

The shade hunter were opportunistic treasure hunters and adventurers who specialized in the procurement of Netherese artifacts. A hunter was equal part scholar and adventurer, a resourceful individual like no other, due in part to the great many dangers they could face.

Culture
Shade hunters were addicted to the thrill of danger from the lethal traps and creatures that resided in Netherese ruins, providing them with an added impetus to continue their careers and bring ancient magics to the powerful mages that inhabit Faerûn.

Fittingly, a hunter would consider the shades of Shadovar to be among their most hated of foes.

Activities
An individual in this line of work would be excited to travel halfway across Toril to glean more information that aided them in their research and next big find. They spent most of their time however in the areas in North Faerûn and beyond, in the lands that once composed those held by ancient Netheril. They would often be set against the Shadovar and their agents, both searching for the same types of artifacts.

Abilities
A shade hunter called upon previous experiences to enhance their chances to survive traps or monsters or improve their abilities to pick locks and disable traps. After some time exploring ruins they actually developed low-light vision and even blindsight.

They could innately sense Netherese magic that had been sitting in one place for at least one hundred years. As the Shade Hunter became more experienced, this sense strengthened to allow the shade hunter to follow their instincts and actually find the artifact.

A shade hunter carried odd items and objects that were stored randomly upon their person. These night include dungeoneering aids and tools to improve the shade hunter's ability to survive.

Relationships
There was a certain fellowship among the different individual shade hunters. They would often exchanged useful information with one another and visit the same establishments between their delves into ruins.
