Blood Hunter - Order of the Hunger _ GM Binder

Order of the Hunger
When one walks the path of using the power of evil to destroy
evil, few options are drastic as those that introduce the
Hunger into themselves to enhance their abilities.

In an ancient and dark blood rite, Blood Hunters of this
order consume that which consumes - they imbibe the blood
of a vampire, mixing it with their own in a process that
produces a cursed half-living half-undead hunter. Though
horrific, the Hunger grants them strength and powers that
allow them effective machines of destruction, hunting and
destroying what haunts the shadows.

If they don't become what haunts the shadows.
