He only hunts alone as his way of protecting others, preferring to place himself into harms way rather than seeing someone else get injured. When he does have to hunt in a group he tries to take the reigns of leadership and guide the group to victory, commanding and warning his fellow hunters of various attacks or chances to attack. This has had its ups and downs, with him being able to lead a group against small wyverns and beasts but more often than not failing against larger wyverns. When not hunting though Auriok is the exact opposite, being talkative, socializing and being all around friendlier.<br/><strong>Likes:</strong> Seeing people safe, the full moon shining and a sharp weapon in hand.<br/><strong>Dislikes:</strong> Seeing people in danger, loud noises and a dull weapon.<br/><br/><strong>Years of experience:</strong> 1<br/><strong>Favorite weapon type:</strong> Gunlance<br/><strong>Backup weapon type:</strong> Light Bowgun<br/><strong>Current armor:</strong> White Velociprey armor<br/><br/><strong>Character History:</strong> Only a fear years ago was did a young man find himself sitting at home wondering what to do with his life, having only done a few odd jobs around Jumbo Village but otherwise nothing really set in stone. That man was Auriok, and while he was more than happy to lend a hand to someone in need, he couldn't help but feel like there was something else meant for him...something greater than merely working in the village. That was when a hunter of the village approached him, proposing that he could tutor the young man in the ways of a hunter. All too eager did Auriok agree to this and soon found himself on his first quest with his master....gathering mushrooms.<br/><br/>Out in the field he questioned his master why it was that they were out there gathering some fungus when they could have been out slaying one of the large wyverns that plagued the area. His master gave him a simple answer: it is a hunters duty to accept any quest and fulfill it, no matter how dangerous or tedious it would be, and since it was Auriok's first hunt he had chosen a simple task. Auriok complained a bit but he sucked it up as they finished the task and returned to the village. He would admit that his first taste of the hunters life was a let down but his mentor reassured him that he would be getting into the actual hunts soon enough, but he had to first learn the basics. So for the next couple of weeks he was put to the task of learning said basics, gathering materials like herbs and blue mushrooms, combining the materials into potions and mining for ores.<br/><br/>The tasks were boring to him, but his mentor was always reassuring him that soon enough he would go on his first hunt. Though he was starting to doubt this, he was at least glad that his mentor allowed for him to commission his arms and armor from the Wyverian blacksmith, making his first weapon an iron lance and his armor the chainmail set. Soon enough his mentor was taking him out to practice his weapon on a few Aptonoth, the safest way for him to try out wielding his weapon. After a few hunts his mentor said that he was finally ready. Excited at this, his mentor had set him up with an easy quest to fulfill: kill 10 velociprey that have been roaming around the village that have been making it relatively hard to go out for non-hunters. As they headed out of the village his mentor was offering to him some tips, as he would not be aiding in the hunt. Auriok merely nodded his head at each thing, not really listening as he was off in his own little world.<br/><br/>Reaching the field Auriok was now on his own while his mentor would merely watch, though would kill if they actually attacked him. It only took Auriok a few minutes to find his objective a few areas away, all ten little preys hunting some Aptonoth for some food. He set in for a charge and managed to hit one, but had unwittingly placed himself in the middle of pack. He quickly put up his guard and managed to block several blows but one had managed to get him from behind, knocking him down and leaving him open to further attacks. Auriok managed to get back up just to get knocked down as one leaped at him. He managed to get back up and blocked this time, keeping another blow from possibly from harming him but now he was injured to some degree and needed to pop a potion. Looking over his shoulder to look at his mentor, he saw that the man had slain at least one Velociprey that had strayed too close to him with his great sword.<br/><br/>Obviously getting no help there, Auriok turned his attention back onto the Velociprey and back stepped twice before putting his weapon away and running for some distance in order to drink a potion. His health restored he brought his lance back out and held it up to block as the Velociprey came charging at him....until a fireball from above hit killed all but the ones on the outside edges. Looking up to the sky he saw descending was a Rathalos, the beast looking angry and focused on him for whatever reason. Auriok knew he was outclassed against this beast and attempted to run, but in inexperience showed as the wyvern shot a fireball at his back and it struck him, nearly killing him and sending him sprawling on the ground.<br/><br/>His vision going black and in too much pain to even move, Auriok merely lay there until he blacked out, waiting for the end that would never come, for as he passed out his mentor fought the Rathalos successfully and brought him back to heal at Jumbo Village. When he came to he thanked his master but he dismissed the thank you, explaining that it was a hunters duty to defend those who cannot defend themselves, just as Auriok had been. Since then the young man's attitude changed when it came towards hunting, listening to every little thing his master had to say like a sponge and taking hunts a lot more seriously.<br/><br/><strong>Player preferences and limits:</strong> I'm open to trying anything at least once, though dipping into the extreme things is a big if and you must be very convincing to get me to try any of such things.<br/><br/></div></div>
