Awakened Being Hunting Party

A hunting party normally consists of four Claymore of varying strength, tasked with eliminating a single Awakened Being. Although a single-digit Claymore is normally included, casualty and Awakening rates on such missions are high

Organisation
Hunting parties are formed by The Organization's handlers in response to an Awakened Being elimination request. They seem to select Claymore based on proximity, although a stronger single-digit ranker is always included. The normally solitary Claymore are shown and implied to frequently argue when working together. The single-digit leads by senority and personal force. Few examples of team tactics by Claymore are seen, until the mobilisation of 24 warriors by Miria in the Northern Campaign.

Very few Awakened Being hunts end without the death or Awakening of all or some of the hunting party. The inefficiency of generally killing one Awakened being by creating another is not shown to concern the organisation very much.
