Treasure Hunter

Treasure Hunters are individuals who hunt for hidden riches.
==Overview==
Treasure Hunters are those whose profession it is to seek out and find precious or rare items, which they refer to as "Treasure" that are potentially worth a fortune.Fairy Tail Manga: Chapter 344, Page 11 Treasure Hunters will explore various regions to seek out any rare items to complete their quest, from abandoned ruins,Fairy Tail Anime: Episode 268 dangerous environments to facing monsters most would not normally dare venture.Fairy Tail Anime: Episode 270 Some Hunters would go as far as to steal the rare items from the possession of others with little guilt or remorse. Treasure Hunters are sometimes also referred to as Grave Robbers.Fairy Tail Zero Manga: Chapter 4, Page 12
Unlike Mages, who place their guild marks on their bodies with a Magic stamp and similarly to the Mercenaries, some Treasure Hunting guild members shown sport their Guild's symbol on their outfits, either on the clothing itself or on specifically worn bands.
==Abilities==
Similar to Mercenaries, most of the Treasure Hunters seen typically rely on their natural physical abilities than they do with Magic and thus rarely possess any internal magical power. Instead, they focus more on personal skills such as melee combat, marksmanship, swordsmanship for conflict, as well as some practical skills such as disguises,Fairy Tail Manga: Chapter 346, Page 14 knot tyingFairy Tail Manga: Chapter 347, Pages 14-15 and mapping.
Treasure Hunters also equipped themselves with various tools and items, be it magical or non-magical for various purposes, either for questing or personal use, typically more mechanical based.Fairy Tail Zero Manga: Chapter 2, Pages 17-18Fairy Tail Zero Manga: Chapter 6, Page 7 Almost each individual has a unique and personal, non-magical weapon of choice for offensive means, be it firearms, swords, hammers or chains.Fairy Tail Manga: Chapter 344, Pages 8-9Fairy Tail Manga: Chapter 344, Pages 5-6Fairy Tail Zero Manga: Chapter 4, Page 11 Other practical equipment includes papers to chart maps with, oil lanterns for dark areas and containers to collect valuable and fragile items.
==Guild Treasure Ranking==
Treasure Hunting Guilds appear to have a system similar to that of Mage Guilds when it comes to ranking treasures, the more rare, valuable and potentially difficult to obtain the item is, the higher its ranking is. Such examples include the Eternal Flame protecting the Sun Village which was designated to be a "S-Class Super Treasure" by some members of the Sylph Labyrinth guild.Fairy Tail Manga: Chapter 343, Page 14
The Tenrou Jade is also noted to be an S-Class rare item, which it alone to could be sold for enough money to live in luxury.Fairy Tail Zero Manga: Chapter 2, Page 11
Other notable items such as a Judgment Field is categorised as an A-Class treasure.Fairy Tail Zero Manga: Chapter 2, Page 16
