Priests of Orion, called simply Huntsmen, are caretakers and protectors of forested lands. They do their best to keep encroaching civilization from destroying their idyllic sylvan lands. They hunt only for food and survival, but venerate the Spirit of the Hunt. They have no religious hierarchy, the spirit being passed down from one Priest to an

apprentice of his own choosing. The Priest rarely invokes the name of Orion, instead calling on the spirit of the forest. Warriors and rangers may be multi-classed as Priests of Orion.
