“Click and clack goes the Seeker’s blade,

To make a snack of the wicked mage.

Through the ghostly veil, they come,

To steal the magic for their fun.”

— Snippet of infernal seeker summoning ritual

Infernal Seekers come in all shapes and sizes from the lower planes with no two alike. They are often cloaked in midnight robes and decked in mementos of past battles, including bones and other ornaments. These fiends are natural enemies of magic users and expert assassins due to their innate ability to nullify magic.

Ghostly Killers. Infernal Seekers enjoy taking their targets by surprise, often materializing behind them out of the ethereal realm. With a flick of their corrupted blades, they will disappear again with a giggle of joy.

Spell Breaker. Magic users are the main targets of Infernal Seekers because they can counter their spells with a single strike.

Solitary Hunters. It is rare to see Infernal Seekers working together. If they believe another Seeker is after their target, they will often shift to removing their competition.
