Vampire Hunter
Vampire Hunters are elite warriors dedicated to the eradication of undead, particularly vampires and their minions. Armed with a combination of martial prowess, supernatural awareness, and a limited set of specialized spells, they navigate the shadows to protect the realms from the scourge of the undead. These hunters are often driven by personal vendettas, tragic pasts, or a sense of duty to rid the world of the undead menace.
