Duties of the Priesthood

Priestess of Venery are always hunters and trackers. Upon attaining the status of Companion they choose a particular quarry that they are attuned with. In a rural setting this might be the knack for finding lost cattle or for hunting wolves. In the wilderness this could skill might be used towards tracking a particular humanoid race. The priestess can chose any one type of quarry to pursue. When on the trail of their preferred quarry the Priestess receives a +1/3 levels to their tracking proficiency check. This does not negate the non-ranger penalty for tracking.
