				A list of the cast of characters for the Monster Hunter RP! If you're interested in joining, the link to the interest check is in the OOC. Knowledge barrier is extremely low, as I'm going to make this RP about as welcome to non-series players as is humanly possible.<br><br>Character sheet skeleton is as follows<br><div class="codeheader">Code: <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="return smfSelectText(this);" class="codeoperation">[Select]</a></div><pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0;"><code class="bbc_code">[img height=400]PICTURE GOES HERE[/img]<br>Name:<br>Age:<br>Height/Weight:<br>Motive for joining guild:<br>Personality: <br>Likes:<br>Dislikes: <br><br>Years of experience:<br>Favorite weapon type:<br>Backup weapon type:<br>Current armor:<br><br>Character History:<br>Player preferences and limits:</code></pre><br><hr><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Natalia</div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://danbooru.donmai.us/data/4691a332970fc79da6052aeb07ce77bd.jpg)<br><strong>Name:</strong> Natalia Erwin<br><strong>Age:</strong> 22<br><strong>Height/weight:</strong> 5' 6'' / 140 lbs<br><strong>Motive for joining guild:</strong> Desire to improve herself<br><strong>Personality:</strong> On the surface, she is kindhearated, rational, and professional. However, she is fueled by an almost insatiable desire to improve her power, and obtain more strength. She's always willing to take on the next big hunt, and she is absolutely fearless on the battlefield, as she refuses to back down or run away until her only two options are to either retreat or die. She values human life at an extreme premium, and she outright refuses to allow anybody in her team to attempt some kind of 'noble sacrifice' should the situation turn dire. Despite that, though, she is tactical and keeps a calm mind while fighting. As any experienced hunter can tell you, a hunter wielding big, slow, heavy weapons must be smart in order to outwit, outmaneuver, and overpower their opponents, contrary to the stereotype about heavy weapons users being 'mindless meatheads'. She favors big, powerful weapons and is almost never seen without a Greatsword. However, when the situation calls for it, she has been known to break out a Switch Axe from time to time.<br><strong>Likes:</strong> Honest and honorable allies, people who are aware of their limits, sweet rolls, logic puzzles, strategy games<br><strong>Dislikes:</strong> Death (to an extreme degree), spicy foods, recklessness, ignorance or apparent stupidity<br><br><strong>Years of experience:</strong> 5<br><strong>Favorite weapon type:</strong> Great Sword<br><strong>Backup weapon type:</strong> Switch Axe<br><strong>Current armor:</strong> Modified Lagiacrus set<br><br><strong>Character History:</strong> At the age of seventeen, Natalia left home with her sights set of being a powerful, respected Monster Hunter that would be able to bring fame and wealth to the unassuming, small family that she had grown up as a part of. With an old and reliable blade on her back and basic hunting leathers dawned, she ventured out alone in the world to make a name for herself. However, she ended up being rejected by all the guild leaders that she came across, for reasons that they were not willing to share with her. Growing desperate, the young woman realized that she'd have to prove her worth if she was to be accepted in the ranks of the Monster Hunters. As such, when she heard a trio of hunters talking about how they were heading out on a dangerous hunt to take down a monster just outside of the local borders, she saw her chance and tailed behind them from a distance. This was her chance! All she had to do was prove that she would be useful, and they were SURE to accept her as a member. Natalia revealed her presence to the hunters once it was too late for them to turn back, and reluctantly, the trio allowed for her to come along as long as she stayed out of the way and kept herself out of danger. Natalia agreed to their terms, confident that she'd prove herself nonetheless, and the hunt began.<br><br>The group had been able to slay the Azure Rathalos that they had been after, though Natalia had mostly stayed out of the way and had contributed nothing to the success of the team. When the trio began to leave, she lowered her head in defeat, realizing that she had been completely useless, and that there was no way she'd proven herself worthy of joining the guild. That was when things started flying off the rails, and the squad heard heavy, stomping feet coming from behind them. Turning around, Natalia found herself face to face with a gigantic leviathan, it's scales white as the pale, pure moon. The only parts that weren't pure white were a soft tint of blue. It's bright red eyes glowed against the setting sun, as it walked on all four of it's legs slowly towards the group and let out a sound that seemed like a half-hybrid between a roar and a hiss, as though it was warning the group right then to leave.<br><br>As it's maw opened, it bared it's lengthy rows of fangs at the humans, and while the hunters were intimidated and ready to leave since they knew what they would be getting themselves into, Natalia only saw it as opportunity. She realized that if she was able to put this beast down, she'd prove herself a capable hunter and an asset to the guild. However, the moment she put her hand on the hilt of her blade, the white leviathan erupted forward and the trio of hunters scrambled in a panic. The ivory monster was sickeningly fast, far quicker then Natalia had been prepared for, and it lashed opened it's mouth to unleash a mighty lightning attack on the poor girl. Unable to dodge in time, Natalia let out a cry of fear and shielded her eyes, but the blast never came. Opening her eyes, she saw that one of the hunters had jumped in front of her and intercepted the blast, just before he fell to the ground in critical condition. The two hunters were able to collect their fallen comrade, and with him slumped over their shoulders they ran for their lives. Natalia herself could only run as well, though she split ways from the hunters and made her own way back to town once the leviathan decided to give up it's chase and return to it's territory. Upon her return to town, she made her way back to the guild hall with her head hung low to discover the state of the injured hunter. However, when she arrived, she was horrified to discover that the injury he took had been fatal. The hunter's burial was scheduled for a week later.<br><br>She later learned that she was denied because she was apparently overly ambitious, and had too much hunger in her eyes. Hunters that didn't respect their prey, and didn't understand their own strength, were nothing more then a liability to their comrades and were essentially a free meal for the monsters that they were supposed to be slaying. She also learned that the monster she had encountered was an Ivory Lagiacrus, a monster of terrifying power that was considered to be one of the strongest in the known world. Thankfully, the Guild Master took just as much blame on himself for the deceased hunter as Natalia blamed herself for being so ignorant, reckless, and desperate. Natalia herself was a changed woman from the experience, she no longer sought the glory or the money that came from Hunting Monsters. In fact, the moment when that hunter tanked the lightning attack for her was one of the most helpless, pathetic feelings of weakness that she had ever endured in her life. She expressed to the Guild Master that she wanted to never feel that sickening feeling of uselessness again, and she NEVER wanted to see another life end like that again. She never even knew the man's name, but he had died for her, and that revelation had rattled her to her very core.<br><br>Despite her flaws, she was welcomed into the Guild after her change of character. Five years later, she had grown and matured into a strong and responsible hunter. She now wears Lagiacrus armor, as a reminder of the monster that had changed her life and made her mature for the better. Even then, though, she still yearns for the day when she's strong enough to fight an Ivory Lagiacrus on even footing, as a way to finally close the door on her doubts, hesitations, and the failures of her past.<br><br><strong>Player preferences and limits:</strong> All the usual stuff you'd expect to see here, I'm fairly flexible with what I'm willing to do, but I won't do anything that typically dips into the extreme category. While Natalia is technically straight, can be convinced to swing over to the other side of the fence with enough persuasion and patience.</div></div><br><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Cairus</div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://moe.animecharactersdatabase.com/uploads/chars/5524-1258322907.jpg)<br><strong>Name:</strong> Cairus Lancaster<br><strong>Age:</strong> 21<br><strong>Height/Weight:</strong> 5' 10'' 160lbs <br><strong>Motive for joining guild:</strong> Acceptance from his family<br><strong>Personality:</strong> A confident man that's always eager to prove himself capable of standing on his own strength. He always seems to be willing to take on bigger and more dangerous hunts, even though they're out of his skill level. Most of the time he's easy to work with and lighthearted, but whenever his pride is damaged or thrown into question, he quickly gets extremely defensive and bitter, and puffs himself up even more in an attempt to prove those insults wrong.<br><strong>Likes:</strong> Praise, steak, being allowed to lead, proving his strength<br><strong>Dislikes:</strong> being pushed aside, being called weak. most kinds of fruit<br><br><strong>Years of experience:</strong> about 6 months<br><strong>Favorite weapon type:</strong> Longsword<br><strong>Backup weapon type:</strong> None<br><strong>Current armor:</strong> Jaggi armor<br><br><strong>Character History:</strong> From the moment that Cairus was born, he was the smallest, youngest, and weakest of three brothers. He was subject to a great deal of bullying in his early years, and while his brothers did mature over time and were less direct with their words, Cairus still couldn't stand the way that they were constantly looking down on him, and considering him inferior to the two of them. Even his father, who did his best to support and empower Cairus, couldn't help but come off as overbearing and patronizing to the angry and jaded young man. As the years went on, Cairus grew more and more ambitious, as he sought the acceptance of his older brothers and his father. They hadn't said a negative word to him in the greater part of a decade, yet that entire time there were hundreds of unspoken words that said more about their beliefs then a kick to the shins or a cruel prank ever could.<br><br>When he came of age, he left home, abandoning the blacksmithing ways of his father and his middle brother in order to become the first in his family line to enter the dangerous and glory filled world of Monster Hunting. He'd prove to them that he was worthy of their respect, and while it did stem from his family growing up, he developed a desire to prove himself and gain the approval of most people that he comes across even until today.<br><strong>Player preferences and limits:</strong> See above, although Cairus is completely straight.</div></div><br>

				Here's both my characters. Sorry about the cluttered Ness, Toughie.<br><br><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Sera Fields</div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://31.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mdqh2cuTHD1qav1tuo1_500.jpg)<br>Name: Sera Fields<br>Age: 19<br>Height/Weight: 5'3"/ 184 lbs.<br>Motive for joining guild: Prove herself to her family<br>Personality: Bubbly and warm on the outside, very self-conscious on the inside<br>Likes: Good food, friendly people, and a friend by your side.<br>Dislikes: Sour people, disheartening failure, and going alone.<br><br>Years of experience: 1<br>Favorite weapon type: Longsword<br>Backup weapon type: Dual Swords<br>Current armor: Bnahabra Armor<br><br>Character History: Sera joined for the simple reason that most people she knows in her home life agree that Sera is a flat, down-and-out coward. Spiders, monsters both large and small, hot springs, Felines, you name it, Sera probably has a reason to be scared of it. She joined the Hunter's Guild a year ago to overcome her fears, and so far she's making progress! ...as long as she has backup. Her mission completion ratio while hunting alone is pretty dismal, more then one report of abandoning a simple quest where she wasn't even supposed to fight anything! When asked why, she shook her head and simply said 'too much buzzing'.<br><br>Outside of her Guild Duties, Sera is a very pleasant person, a personality bordering on extrovert, Sera has no problem making friends and even fewer problems snickering people into joining her on frivolous missions just so she can feel safe (though she never openly admits). Her success on quests with at least one other person is staggeringly different from solo, boasting an impressive 99.3% success rate.<br><br>Player preferences and limits: Sera is bicurious at the moment and will swing both ways. She'll figure t which she prefers soon. (As for me, keep it fairly simple. As long as we don't step into anything too extreme, we're fine.)</div></div><br><hr><br><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Minako Shikazuma</div><div class="spoiler_body">(https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRQNpKk0N3MFkzSqNXukkH6OtPs4hF2LhmzJVR4kwNgRj4B7rXw2g)<br><br>Name: Minako Shikazuma (Mina to everyone)<br>Age: 19<br>Weight/Height: 5'0" 120 lbs<br>Reasons for Joining the Guid: Money.<br>Personality: Super nerdy and excitable. Easily spooked or startled.<br>Likes: The Gong Girl, and anything she likes/does.<br>Dislikes: Tomatoes.<br><br>Years of Experience: 3<br>Guild Sweetheart.<br>Standard Blue Hunter's Guild Uniform.<br><br>Background: Minako transferred from another region at the Guild's behest, due to her experience, however they have since noted a slight hitch in her near perfect resume. Recently,Mina has been caught staring at the Gong Girl longingly.<br><br>She has passed her exams, and could begin life as a Hunter at her whim.<br><br>Player Preference and Limits: Minako has a lady boner harder then Uragaan's chin for e Gong Girl and, consequencely is gay. (She's more a comic relief character.)</div></div>

If she thinks she can handle something herself during a hunt, she has a tendency to rush off on her own to take care of it, much to the annoyance of her group. Show her the "proper" respect, though, and she can actually be very helpful and even friendly.<br><strong>Likes:</strong> Swimming, exotic foods (to her), good listeners, hard workers.<br><strong>Dislikes:</strong> Dry heat, bland foods, lazy people, people who talk down to her.<br><br><strong>Years of experience:</strong> Only a few months, though she had worked with very large hunting parties before<br><strong>Favorite weapon type:</strong> Switchfork (a trident that disassembles into two shortswords)<br><strong>Backup weapon type:</strong> Light Bowgun<br><strong>Current armor:</strong> Mixed Ludroth Armor pieces and Leather Armor pieces<br><br><strong>Character History:</strong> Seiche hails from a fairly isolated village in the tropical jungles to the south. The village sits along the bank of a massive river that cuts through the entire jungle. Its people rely mainly on the fish and fresh water from the river for their survival, though they will occasionally trade rare jungle plants and materials for clothing and armor to the traders that pass through. Like other remote parts of the world, they do have their fair share of monsters to deal with, both big and small. Ludroth are a big concern, along with all varieties of big, colorful, and carnivorous fish, eels, alligators, and other monsters. Normally, any able-bodied villager with a net and a harpoon/trident could handle hunting these creatures, but when something a bit larger came along, like a Royal Ludroth, then something had to be done about it.<br><br>Being that this village was so isolated and had little in the way of currency, requesting aid from the distant Monster Hunter guilds was out of the question. So the villagers developed their own system of dealing with giant monsters, which involved groups of a dozen or two men or women in their prime tracking down the creature, but not fighting it directly as Hunters would. Instead, they set traps for the giant monsters in the river or the jungle, then used tactics of misdirection and baiting to guide them into said traps to either capture or kill. These guerilla tactics made it possible for the villagers to live in safety without giving up their entire net worth to ship in a Monster Hunter from some far away land.<br><br>Seiche was initially fine with being a part of these hunting parties, but ended up being among those select few children who couldn't stand the idea of spending their entire lives in that same village. When she came of age, she decided that she wanted to travel far away and join the Monster Hunter guild herself, to show the world the genius of their tactics and to help spread their culture. Once she was a master hunter, she could return, take care of the many giant monsters that populated the jungle, and allow the village to start to grow and thrive. Equipped with the weapons, traps, and knowledge of her people, she spent some time preparing for the journey and bought a ride with the next trader to come through, heading for the closest (and biggest) guild she could find.<br><strong>Player preferences and limits:</strong> Aside from the usual gore/toilet stuff, I'm open to discuss just about anything.</div></div>

He is determined to rise through the ranks by any means necessary in order to earn this self-proclaimed title. If there is no such thing as a King of Hunters, then he will be the first! "HELL YEAH!"<br><br><strong>Personality:</strong> Cocky is a word that best describes Shard. He sees the world as his playground, where he can fulfill any of his needs and desire for entertainment at any moment. He can be charismatic, but he mostly comes off as a self-absorbed asshole, which regularly gets him into trouble. He likes being a bad boy. Anger is an emotion he doesn't believe in. Shard doesn't see a need for it. "Shit happens. Get over it." Whether winning or losing, he always has a playful countenance glowing about him. ALone on the streets with nothing but the clothes on his back? He'd still find a way to entertain himself while hustling up some money for food. It's just the kind of guy he is.<br><br><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Theme Song</div><div class="spoiler_body">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFoGOpzbw7I</div></div><br><strong>Likes:</strong> Partying! Eating food. Enjoying the company of women. "But most of all...!" Being Shard.<br><br><strong>Dislikes:</strong> "Ass-hats!" <em>Noun</em> 'Individuals with their heads so far up their own, ass, it could be worn as a hat.' and Authority.<br><br><strong>Years of experience:</strong> 6<br><br><strong>Favorite weapon type:</strong> Bow Guns<br><br><strong>Backup weapon type:</strong> Short-Sword<br><br><strong>Current armor:</strong> Orange Kelbi Hide<br><br><strong>Character History:</strong> Shardxylle was raised in a small city plagued by crime. Instead of succumbing to those in power, Shard's father, Derek Liengod, crushed and clawed his way up the latter of power. He became an infamous Muscleman in the Cackling Crosses street gang. Power was the only way to stay safe and survive in the village of Kilthroth, and Derek knew that very well. Once secured, he bedded a whore, who birthed his first son and Shardxylle's eldest brother, Luciel "Noose" Liengod. After the first son was born, Derek married Shelly, the whore, who turned out to know a thing or two about knives and human anatomy. The couple had two other sons shortly after; Axiil and Shardxylle Liengod. They were a prominent family in the Cackling Crosses crime syndicate. As time went on, Shardxylle became well aware of the world his family lived in. The strong survived. The weak were crushed. The world keeps on spinning. But after taking his first human life, Shard began to question if this world was right for him. He confronted his father, and proudly, Derek imparted his wisdom unto his youngest son.<br><br>You see, neither Derek nor Shelly wanted this type of life for any of their sons, but they would not force their views upon their children. Instead, they waited for each son to come into his own view of this world. No matter what, this powerful crime family always supported one-another, no matter their views. Derek explained that the Cackling Crosses were founded by a power group of Monster Hunters, who extort the village of Killthroth. If the village does not pay, then the hunters would allow the monsters in the area to overrun the population. No one dares oppose the crime lords for fear of their village being left defenseless, and this is where their power comes from.<br><br>Though Shard's eldest brothers follow their father in climbing the ranks to the very top, and then changing the village of Killthroth from the inside out, Shard has always had big aspirations. He decided to go a step further, and become a Monster Hunter himself. He would grow in strength, in power, and soon, claim the title of King of the Monster Hunters. Shard would change the world. He would create a place where the strong protected the weak, and where humans and monsters didn't need to fear one another. They would live together, either in unity, or separate lives. <br><br>So Shard left his home village in pursuit of his destiny. He trained at a nearby guild for a year until he became an official hunter, but this wasn't enough. The guild he trained at was small, and so were the monsters they hunted. He needed a bigger challenge. A bigger guild. He needed bigger monsters. So he spent the next five years traveling, until he caught wind of one of the largest guilds in the world. Now, Shardxylle resides here. Though his goals are still focused on becoming King, he regularly finds himself distracted by all the beautiful women and temping parties. He's got all his life to become King. Taking a few moments to enjoy his youth won't kill anyone.&nbsp; <br><br><strong>Player preferences and limits:</strong> Submissive or aggressive; it doesn't matter to Shard. So long as the girls are cute, he's happy. His only limits are certain levels of pain, vore, scat, or anything else that weird.</div></div>

				<div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Auriok Edgewright</div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://i874.photobucket.com/albums/ab308/gigafist/56ef59c1-eb46-40c2-979e-0a626d16ab99_zps865b9108.png)<br><strong>Name:</strong> Auriok Edgewright<br><strong>Age:</strong> 22<br><strong>Height/Weight:</strong> 6'3/157 lbs without armor<br><strong>Motive for joining guild:</strong> To protect those who cannot protect themselves.<br><strong>Personality:</strong> Auriok is a bit of a loner when it comes to hunting, preferring to be alone when hunting down beasts and small wyverns. 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>

He’d much rather just sit around and come up with new note combinations and songs on his hunting horn then actually go out on a hunt. He’ll do what he can to dodge unneeded jobs and responsibilities. At the same time pressure slides off of him and is relaxed in even the most dangerous situations. Despite his lazy habits and relaxed nature however he is reliable in a pinch, putting his lazy habits behind him and focusing on the prey in front of him. He takes his time in combat picking the right note combination for each job and setting up traps well in advance so he has to do the least amount of work possible. In the case that the noise a hunting horn makes is a disadvantage he’ll use a hammer instead<br><strong>Likes:</strong> Music, naps, games, puzzles<br><strong>Dislikes:</strong> Work, responsibility, people who push themselves too hard, being told to do something he doesn't want to do.<br><br><strong>Years of experience:</strong> 4<br><strong>Favorite weapon type:</strong> Hunting Horn<br><strong>Backup weapon type:</strong> Hammer<br><strong>Current armor:</strong> Guild Armor<br><br><strong>Character History:</strong> Theo grew up in the middle of the city of all things to a moderately wealthy family and early on in his life it was decided that he would take over his family’s business. That however was not what he wanted. He originally wanted to work with music found that he had the talent for it. Unfortunately as far as his family was concerned that was fine for a hobby but not an appropriate career for him. They continued to groom him to take over the family business and placed ever increasing pressure on him. Burdened with his family’s high expectations he put forth all his attention on fulfilling his family’s desires for him and ignoring his own. Over time however he was unable to take it any longer he left both his home and the city, determined to try to make it on his own.<br><br>Leaving the city behind him he originally planned to find a small town some distance away, get a job that would pay enough for him to live as well as give him time to focus on his own interests that had been neglected for quite some time. On his way to the small he ran into a group of hunters and deciding that it would be better to dine in a group rather than alone he joined them after receiving an invitation to do so. One of the hunters in the group happened to wield a Hunting Horn. Theo was fascinated by the weapon.&nbsp; The hunter noticing his fascination with the weapon performed a minor display showing off what the weapon was capable of and throughout the night Theo was entertained by the hunter’s. Star struck by the hunter, his plans changed and his original goal was forgotten. After some minor pleading and cajoling the group of hunters allowed Theo to travel with them for a while. Changed by his encounter with the hunters, he decided to join the guild wielding the same weapon that had fascinated him. <br><br><strong>Player preferences and limits:</strong> Theo is straight and as long as things stay away from the extreme end of the spectrum it's fine.

A good natured man, he does feel an inner need to compete with rivals and prove himself and takes on a far more serious nature on the hunt...Though some might say he acts recklessly once in a while, use to hunting alone.<br><br>Likes: Reading, spicy and hot foods, the thrill and rush of battle, redheads or purple hair on women, liars, and nurses.<br>Dislikes: Overly sweet food, wasteful people, Rathalos, tomatoes, people with no common courtesy,<br><br>Years as a hunter: 1 year<br>Favorite weapon: Switch Axe<br>Backup: Gunlance<br>Current armor: Jaggi Armor<br><br>History: While most hunters tend to be from the frontiers and fringe, Gabriel comes from a more pastoral farmland that traditionally sells its stock to those who need it most, something of a sleepy life compared to other lands, it was rocked by the arrival of a Rathalos that sought new hunting grounds. Torching farmlands and picking livestock as it pleased, life ground to a halt when Gabriel was a young child – hiding in his families basement when there was the flap of wings and ineffective militia trying to fend it off. The arrival of a team of hunters answering the towns plea for help was a godsend, and Gabriel worked the courage to watch the frightening fight from the safety of a distance, hidden in his house as he watched the team eventually slay the beast after a long and difficult fight.<br><br>Gone was the simple desire to live a life as a farmer, seeing these exotically dressed men and women, each of them carrying unique and fantastic weapons. Frantically explaining his desire to be a hunter to his family, they were initially abhorrent at the thought of their son possibly dying against some horrible beast! But eventually the reality of the situation they were in, and the fact that Gabriel could help many others by the virtue of simply being part of a team made it so that they agreed to let him train. It’s been many years since, and despite his fair share of scars and bumps, Gabriel eventually became an ‘official’ hunter after he took on his first Great Jaggi and lived – taking on smaller jobs since, but desiring for bigger hunts.<br><br>Preference: While not into super extreme stuff, I can be quite happy to work with a number of kinks or ideas as far as sexual things go! Though I am heterosexual and so is Gabriel, I don’t really care what gender my partner is OOC or anything.<br></div></div>

On the hunt, she is prone to be excitable and emotional outbursts, and can occasionally give in to reckless behavior for the sake of a greater thrill. Even so, she would never willingly force another into her antics, and give up the rush to help out a wounded ally. If she is able to notice in the clamor of battle, of course.<br><br><strong>Likes:</strong> Spicy foods (preferably meat and grains), hunting, friendly individuals, and blacksmithing (though she has little to no skill in it).<br><br><strong>Dislikes:</strong> Excessively sweet foods, vegetables, rude or arrogant hunters, being assaigned a quest she deems 'too easy.'<br><br><br><strong>Years of experience:</strong> 1<br><br><strong>Favorite weapon type:</strong> Charge Axe<br><br><strong>Backup weapon type:</strong> Switch Axe<br><br><strong>Current armor:</strong> Khezu<br><br><br><strong>Character History:</strong> As a young girl, Lilly always dreamed of adventure and often skipped chores as a child to read stories of heroic hunters and their brave hunts. In her late teens, a pack of Velociprey were sighted near the village. Rather than wait for a hunter to be dispatched, Lilly and her like-minded friends volunteered and enlisted as Guild-sanctioned hunters. With a taste of victory, the part pressed on to hunt on the rumors of a Velocidrome, scattering the pack from their town.<br><br>For a time, the party was content, living on the memories of their hunts. Soon, the four's thirst for adventure began to build once more. Foolish and full of their own played-up recollections of their 'drome hunt, the party agreed to tackle something much larger. A sighting of the cave wyvern, Khezu, in the nearby mountains. Hardly stopping for supplies, the party set out immediately to what would be their last hunt together. Low on supplies, the frigid bite was a constant drain and whittled down the group before they had ever found the creature. <br><br>As soon as the Khezu let out it's piercing shriek, the party knew they had gone over their heads. Fighting for their lives, the four faced a long grind against the monster. Forced into hit-and-run tactics and only fighting viciously when cornered by their pursuer. Eventually they managed to fell the wyvern, though not without serious injuries. Supplies exhausted, the group barely made it back to the village. All but Lilly resigned, their thirst for adventure crushed in the grueling conditions.<br><br>Lilly continued on, fashioning a suit of armor from Khezu hides her friends had forfeited and her Guild rewards from the mission. Both to remind herself of the dangers a hunt can bring, but also of the thrill the very same hunt can have. Now she travels from one guild hall to the next, searching for the next rush on the hunt.&nbsp; Her weapon choice has likewise swayed over the new, esoteric Charge Axe. It's ability to play cautiously or switch to a reckless charge resonating strongly with the young and thrill-addicted hunter.<br><br><strong>Player preferences and limits:</strong> Lilly has no preference for either gender, usually with her head in the clouds or faced with single-minded determination on the hunt. While her gaze may rarely linger on another female hunter, her whims always sway back to the hunt.</div></div>

				<div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Xeo Auriels</div><div class="spoiler_body"><br>(http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc370/Sage226/thumb_zps3a76f972.jpg)<br>Name: Xeo Auriels<br>Age: 22<br>Height/Weight: 6" right on the dot<br>Motive for joining guild: Following his father's footsteps, hunt the more dangerous monsters.<br>Personality: Somewhat rash and reckless, his courage never lacks to fail him when he gets a bit too close to trouble. Even young, he was fearless and a fighter. Not that he would get in fights with others, he admired his father whom died hunting monsters. Fueling a rage in his heart brighter than a bonfire, he tends to charge head first. If he were to be roared at directly by a Rathalos, he'd have the guts to roar back. To a point where he sometimes finds himself in heated situations, to say the least.<br><br>Off the hunt, he's a valiant knight who likes to protect. Protect with the large great-sword that he wields and usually always carries around needlessly. If a huge blade made from monsters the very man wielding it killed, it kinda usually works with the intimidation.&nbsp; Just dont go provoking him, as the man's ready to stare down any wyvern to cross his path, another few men isn't much scarier. A casual soul, he's curious in new places and likes to wander and explore. He's a surprisingly quick learner, quick on his feet (without his equipment to weight him down), and he's favorite activities are hunting, hunting, hunting, landscape-viewing and... hunting.<br><br>Likes: Landscapes, exploring, hunting big monsters, good battles, scavenging the parts, music.<br>Dislikes: Getting too overheated in warm climates while wearing thick armors, monster dung, bugs (The ones that aren't pretty or adorable. caterpillars and butterflies, meh. Spiders, cockroaches and large beetles give him the crawlies)<br><br>Years of experience: 8 <br>Favorite weapon type: Great-Sword<br>Backup weapon type: Lance<br>Current armor: Alloy<br><br>Character History: Gone before he could remember much, Xeo grew up with only his mother in a small village. His father had fallen to the claws of a wild beast from the forest; a Nargacuga. The sly beast caught the man while he had strayed from the group and struck him out of the blue. The man didn't expect anything, and the spikes of it's tail hit the right places for a fatal strike, to the man's misfortune. Said beast erred the rainy forest around the village, causing problems for them year after year. Many villagers had fallen victim to the very same beast as no one was able to defeat the rapid monster. People grew afraid of he night, when the Nargacuga roams through the woods to find it's prey.<br><br>It wasn't before Xeo was 7 that a hunter from the Guild showed up to take care of the problem. A man that seemed 7 feet tall and wielded a sword nearly a big as he did, young Xeo was in awe before the hunter, dressed in blue Rathalos armor, ulike any Xeo had seen before. The night after the hunter's arrival, the man set out in the woods. That night, the forest had never been so noisy. Screams of the beast echoed through the valleys as the battle raged. After half an hour, however, there was one last, weak scream, a dropping sound and silence. 15 minutes later, the hunter was back to the village and indicated on a map where the carcass of the beast laid. Next day came, a large banquet and a party was held in honor of the falling of the beast. But there was more to Xeo's eyes, not only was the 7 year-old impressed and in awe, the passion of the hunt burned like wildfire in his blood. His father may have once fallen to a Nargacuga, but there were still people out there able to take on the fearsome beasts. And the village's forest was much safer for everyone to boot. After that day, the little boy's passion for the hunt lit up like a bonfire, as he began to dream of days he would hunt bigger creatures. In the meantime, he occupied himself by scouting for the villagers, keeping smaller beasts at bay such as Jaggis, Ludroths, bahabra's (though he hated that most) and helped collect materials like herbs, mushrooms and minerals. <br><br>Reaching adulthood, the man decided to set out from the village to expand his horizon of experience and hunt different monsters. With excitement boiling in his veins, Xeo took a ship to the bigger cities in search of adventure.<br><br>Player preferences and limits: Other than toilet play, excessive gore, humiliation and other gross/demoralizing things, Xeo is open to pretty much anything. He isn't a complicated man for those kinds of things.</div></div>
