Who They Are

Entrepreneurial Hunters believe the best way to protect balance is to build systems that support it — financially, logistically, organizationally. They fund safe houses, supply other Hunters with equipment, establish legitimate cover businesses, and build the economic infrastructure that keeps everyone operational. They are not soft. They are indispensable — often found embedded in the Meridian Exchange, running small businesses in the Undercity, or serving as the logistical backbone for Hunter cells that would otherwise struggle to operate.
