Moonlight Hunters

The Moonlight Hunters are a group of maiden females who hunt alongside the goddess Artemis. While they are all offered immortality when joining, very few accept it.

Description
The Moonlight Hunters consist of about sixty to seventy maiden females who often go on hunting trips with their patron goddess, Artemis. They also go on hunting trips on their own in small groups in order to thin out the number of monsters in the world, to make it safer for demigods in the world. When they run into demigods, they will also offer the demigod, no matter their gender, sanctuary in the nearest Hunter camp for however long necessary.

The group of hunters usually consists of maidens between the ages of 15-19. However, there have been hunters older and younger than that, as in the case of Italia di Luna.

Many hunters stay with the group for a few years to a decade before they leave to start their own families. The hunters that choose to become immortal are the hunters who have abandoned the idea of ever falling in love or starting a family. Although only a few hunters become immortal at a time, over the centuries, it has built up to create a group of about forty immortal hunters. These immortal hunters are accompanied by twenty to thirty mortal hunters, a few of which join the ranks of the immortal.

Despite greatly disliking war and bloodshed, they are not opposed to participating in it if the cause they're fighting for is one they believe worth dying for.

The Hunters also fight alongside the Chaos Army and the Helios Warriors.

Skills and Abilities
The Moonlight Hunters have exceptional hunting skills. They are skilled at stealth, navigation and orienteering and are exceptional botanists. While the mortal hunters have to learn these abilities, the immortal hunters are blessed by Artemis and therefore have these abilities from the moment hey joined.

The immortal hunters also have limited abilities of lunakinesis (the abilitiy to control moonlight or the moon) caused by the blessing. These abilities include:
 * Moonlight Transportation: While this ability is known as aurakinesis (the ability to control souls or soul energy/power) in demigods of Selene, Artemis and other moon deities, it is known as a lunakinetic ability for the hunters. This ability allows them to teleport from one place to another with a flash of moonlight. The only non-hunter known to have this ability is Amato di Luna.
 * Healing: The Moonlight Hunters are able to use summon moonlight and use it to heal not only their injuries but the injuries of other people.
 * They can also communicate with hunting animals such as beagles and bloodhounds, among others. They have also been rumoured to be able to communicate with wolves and various birds of prey, but these rumours are unproven.
