Relic Hunters "Jakkad's people were skeptical when I first stumbled into their city. But they knew his name and then... Shemites! My countrymen! Familiar faces. Some recognized my face, but I quieted them with a glance. [...] The Exiled Lands are a fearsome place, but the people have managed to build something. I have spoken with men who have been here for a score of years. they told me of the Purge, when soldiers ride through the land, slaying and pillaging. They have told me of the sandstorms that arise with such fury out of nowhere and disappear just as quickly. I told them of the vision I had in the ruined city. [...] They've agreed to send an expedition." - Razma of Shem

Lore
Relic Hunters are exactly what their namesake implies. They are an organized band of tomb raiders, plunderers, treasure seekers and daredevils dead set on unearthing ancient relics and artifacts either to be sold or otherwise researched, but to what ends only the Relic Hunters know.

The Relic Hunters of Echoes of Hyboria are a more peaceful group than than their counterparts found in the Exiled Lands. Their numbers are far diminished since arriving to the strange land laden with demonic undertones, they are much more susceptible to collaboration and often times offer mercenary work to those looking to earn some coin.

While the Relic Hunters do maintain a level of their affiliations towards Set, it seems they have now seen a greater emergence of Zath worshippers in addition to the eclectic religious minority of the group which has divided the already diminished group in an under-the-surface religious based dispute.

The faction is comprised primarily of Shemites, Stygians, Hyrkanians, Hyborians, Zamorians, Zingarans and Kushites.
