Wildercorps Hunters
Released: October 2023, Hunter and Hunted boxed set.
The Wildercorps Hunters are expert trackers, with an intimate knowledge of the rougher parts of the Mortal Realms. Often recruited from the Reclaimed – those peoples who survived for generations under the cruel lash of Chaos, while Azyr's doors were closed – they've endured sickness, hunger, and inclement weather to hone their skills to a keen knife's edge.
Wildercorps squads are unparalleled in their ability to scout the environment for traps and sappers. They perform this surveillance with the aid of Trailhounds, legendarily bad-tempered dogs bred for keen senses and powerful jaws. They sniff out rival scouting parties and reconnoitre shady groves and clammy warrens where the Hunters can lie in wait.
