Forester (Hunter Archetype)
Tumblr media
(art by Aleksander Karcz on Artstation)
The hunter class is, as we have established in past entries, a class that very much revolves around the animal companion and synergizing with both. It definitely makes you take a second look whenever an archetype gets rid of the companion in favor of other gimmicks and abilities, which a handful of them do.
Today’s subject is one such archetype, being a hunter that is more in tune with nature and their surroundings than they are with the creatures that live within, though of course they still place high value upon such natural creatures.
Despite the name, a “forester” is not limited to forest terrain. More accurately, they are hunters devoted to the various terrains they watch over. In other words, this archetype is all about the ranger favored terrains plus a few other abilities to replace those normally associated with animal companions and such.
The natural world itself is full of many wonders, so I imagine that these hunters in particular have a deep appreciation for aspects both amazing and mundane within the regions they make their home. Regardless, in their home element, few can match them.
Since they don’t have a companion, these hunters keep all of their animal foci powers for themselves, gaining multiple at once.
Their primarily ability, however, is to train to work and fight in their favored terrains with ease, growing their list as they master each.
They also put the training they would normally use to fight alongside their companion towards more flexible forms of combat training.
Additionally, they put their teamwork training towards aiding those they fight with rather than their companion.
Going solo means taking care of yourself, so these hunters train their agility to help avoid dangerous blasts. Later on, this improves further.
That focus on survivability also means they master the art of camouflage to hide from foes and prey, blending in with their favored terrains.
Additionally, in an emergency they can quickly bring a recently slain ally back to life using the same energies they would normally use to revive a companion.
Finally, they become so good at hiding in their favored terrains that they can disappear even when being watched.
This archetype is a fun way to do a companion-less hunter, with favored terrains are a natural replacement. Definitely pick your spells to complement a solo fighting style, especially when they are thematic to your choice of favored terrains, but also prepare for the eventuality of having to fight outside of it.
You might have noticed that many of their replacement abilities are literally modified versions of abilities the hunter normally gets, but geared towards helping other party members. Some might disdain and archetypes like it for the implication that classes are a “part of the world” in the same way, showing the seams of this being a “game”. Others might not be bothered, so your mileage may vary.
Fleeing execution decades ago, the renegade hobgoblin Ozhan has lived the life of a hermit ever since, becoming one with the mountain above and the forest below. He shows no mercy to hobgoblins wearing military colors, but might be convinced to aid those who need a guide.
Many do not think of the underground, be it natural caverns, a dungeon, or even a sewer system beneath the city as an ecosystem, but they are in their own way. As such, certain “Deepers” train themselves to understand that environment, befriending creatures such as otyughs that most would consider monstrous.
A war under the moon is coming for two werewolf clans, the Bloody Moons, who embrace their bestial  nature, and the Ghost Wolves, who temper their monstrous side into a weapon against evil, have come to blows. Ilmac and his family are caught in the middle as a forest caretaker from the Moons who married a Ghost Wolf warrior during more peaceful times.

"Um rei nunca deve se sentar à vontade, dissera Aegon, o Conquistador, quando ordenara aos armeiros que forjassem um grande trono a partir das espadas depostas pelos seus inimigos." - A Guerra dos Tronos // Eddard
"Irri buscou sua coroa, feita na forma do dragão de três cabeças de sua Casa. As caudas eram feitas de ouro, as asas de prata e as três cabeças de marfim, ônix e jade. Os ombros e pescoço de Dany estariam duros e doloridos pelo peso antes que o dia terminasse. Uma coroa não deve assentar fácil na cabeça. Um de seus antepassados reais havia dito isso certa vez." - A Dança dos Dragões // Daenerys I

‏يقول فرويد:
"مذهلٌ كيف يشعر المرء بجرأة، عندما يكون متأكدًا أنه محبوب."
و يقول :
"إن وجدت أحدهم يتقبل نفسه فيمكنك أن تجزم بأنه كان محاطًا بشخص مّا منحه الحب لفترة من حَياته."
-إنها لرفاهية أن يعرفك أحدهم حق المعرفة.

“While there was still a king [the Hobbits] were in name his subjects, but they were, in fact, ruled by their own chieftains and meddled not at all with events in the world outside. To the last battle at Fornost with the Witch-lord of Angmar they sent some bowmen to the aid of the king, or so they maintained, though no tales of Men record it.” ~ Prologue, Concerning Hobbits, The Fellowship of the Ring (Art: “Hobbit Archer” by Aleksander Karcz)
