| style="background:lightyellow"|Tracking is the specialization of [[Hunting]] which is open to warriors. Trackers continue with learning the arts of capturing, mostly through the use of traps. Also, trackers can keep a hunting companion to help them. Trackers can be trained in any warrior guild, though often through ignoring development of the spiritual precepts of the guild. Warriors with this specialization who are not in a guild are sometimes referred to as mercenaries.

If you disarm a trap carefully, you will expend some power to enhance your dexterity and sensitivity to the trap's mechanisms, allowing you a much greater chance at disarming it without triggering the trap.

Due to the difficulty of leading you, with your own scent interfering with the trail, the target's scent must be particularly strong. This can be accomplished by spraying the target with skunk's stench, causing them to get hit by a stink trap, or anything else which will make them smell powerfully enough. For one Lusternian day after this occurs, even if the target washes themselves, they will still smell strong enough to be tracked. Also, the target must be in the same local area and corporeal.
