Delvers (FiD)

Starfox's Blades in the Dark fan page

The Delvers are intrepid explorers and treasure hunters, driven by the thrill of discovery and the lure of wealth. They brave ancient dungeons, forgotten crypts, and perilous ruins in search of hidden riches and powerful artifacts. For the Delvers, every expedition is a gamble where fortune favors the bold—or the foolish.

Delvers seek treasures and loot dungeons.

Claims

For treasure hunters that move around, claims are the usual lair, facilities, and holdings. For delvers that are exploring a single huge dungeon, claims are often parts of the dungeon that have been cleared and can be used as a base.
