Hunter: The Reckoning

Upholding a creed is a way of life, a personally defining perspective. Creeds reflect not only the approach individuals take to the Hunt, but also points of social commonality. 

CREEDS

From the Hunter perspective, orgs are at least rivals, and in many cases, they are legitimate enemies, given that they have priorities other than monster-hunting that can put them into direct conflict with one’s cell.

ORGANIZATIONS

A wide variety of antagonists around whom interesting Hunter stories can be told.

it into their shadow.Warriors, Avengers, Defenders
