The Hunt Duelist Melee

Nyx

The Stray

Hero · ID Hero_7 · Recruited by drafting · Rush

“Yeah. I know I'm small. Get over it.”

Lore

Current work
Nyx slipped past three rift lockdowns before The Hunt gave up chasing the kid and signed them instead. Now the youngest breaker on any roster: too quick to catch, too vicious to ignore. Nyx has no family on file, no address, no home. They don't trust The Hunt enough to sleep at their guild house. But every time there's a fight, the kid is always already there.

Motivation
Nyx doesn't follow guilds but people worth trusting - and hasn't found one yet. Be the first, and the kid stops being a stray.

Guild — The Hunt

“When the call comes, we hunt.”

Bringing the hood to the Rifts. Rushing and stalling, whatever you need.

Guilds are a cosmetic identity tag — they grant no gameplay bonus.
