I've looked under chairs, I've looked under tables
I've tried to find the key to fifty million fables
They call me The Seeker
I've been searching low and high
I won't get to get what I'm after till the day I die
— The Who, "The Seeker"
A seeker quests for the truth, uncovering mysteries, lies, deception and gaining knowledge about themselves and the universe.
Not be confused with the book series by Erin Hunter, which you can find here, or the webcomic of the same name. Or, for that matter, the Australian band from The '60s.
