====Survival==== |
|||
⚫ | |||
Rangers benefit from being within areas best suited for their profession. Their survival skills are much more effective than those of any non-Ranger as long as they are in the wilds. However, too much time spent in a city can dull a Ranger's senses and instincts for a while. |
|||
====Scouting==== |
|||
Rangers are adept at following trails, picking up on details that the untrained would never notice. Use TRACK <target> on a person or creature in the area with you to begin tracking, and TRACK alone to follow their trail afterwards. |

"We are the wind, the hawk on the wing, the soaring spirit of the sky and the patient spirit of the earth. Our gold is sunlight, our gems are flowers, and our life...is the world's." - guild leader Kalika
The Rangers of Elanthia eschew the comforts and conveniences of civilization, making themselves at home in the wilderness. They stand guard over the provinces, holding back the hordes of terror that live on the flesh of the innocent. They most often stand alone, yet in the bleakest moments of battle no other sound can offer comfort like that of a whistling arrow fired from his bow.
For these silent hunters, no fame or fortune can match the pride they take in the mastery of their own abilities or their unity with nature. Most the names of the great Rangers pass into time like a cool autumn breeze. One name that still floats upon the winds of time is Lirisa, known to most these days as the Patron Saint of Rangers, appointed by Kuniyo himself. Her deadly accuracy with the bow and her skills of survival are still the perfect model for those that set out to be Rangers.
