- "A Hunter's skill with the energy bow influences the reputation of all Nightsisters for good or ill."
- ―Talzin
Hunter was a Nightsister rank and specialization. It was one of three categories of mercenary skill offered to offworld clients by the Nightsister clan, the other two being those of warrior and shadow killer. All Dathomiri mercenaries, which included those from the ranks of both the Nightsisters and the Nightbrothers, were chosen from the successful endurance of the trials of Selection.[1]
Overview[]
The Hunters were special agents, whose specialty was to follow blood trails to track their victims. They wore red robes and hoods as a distinctive sign, as well as black wrist wraps to protect them from the plasma string of their energy bows. Those amongst the Hunters who served as dark side mercenaries were expected to supply their coven with nine credits from every ten they earned, so they could continue outfitting them with the required equipment.[1]
History[]
During the Clone Wars, the Shaman of the Nightsisters and clan matriarch Talzin commanded several Hunters. When Asajj Ventress came to the Nightsister fortress in hopes of finding help against the treacherous Count Dooku, she was ambushed by a group of those Hunters, who thought she was as intruder.[2]
