Though these archers primarily hunt undead, they are dangerous foes for any creatures.Sorina KalthorinSorina believes undeath is a scourge and corruption that must be purged. As long as the undead spread their filth, all other moral questions are moot. She sees it as her sacred duty to destroy all undead she comes across. To this end, she is constantly in search of crypts and ruins that hide her hated foes.
