1. I'm pretty sure with the hunters being the player characters, no one really despises or doesn't like hunters. Unless they show so undesirable traits that you simply can't do anything but hate them.

2. The rarity of the Highrank and G-rank hunters. I know you get treated by the NPCs as a god each time you do something incredible like beating strong monsters, but still, I thought those things were much more common.

3. Seeking some sort of power that transforms my hunter into a dragon, achieving great power and leaving the threat of getting eaten by monsters and human flaws behind.

4. I don't know. Protecting some of the people I actually like? Not getting eaten when wandering to far from a road? Something among those lines.

5. Given that many of the things that make the games enjoyable, such as your char not getting killed while fainting and such are not present in real life, I say no. Getting mauled by a monster is not fun and extremely painful. There is a reason you encounter atleast one NPC in every game that has retired from hunting.

6. Probably Guild Knight. Hunting down humans instead of monsters who just want to live is way more my style.

7. The potentional criminal past is interesting. Maybe atoning for your crimes via hunting or other tasks are a standard procedure in the MH world. Imagine those poor bastards who want to leave thier past behind only to get mauled by the raptor wyverns because they don't have what it takes.

8. I think it would be a Deviljho. Humans are already ripping apart nature, no need for a "natural" catastrophe to do the same.

9. Alatreon equipment nonstop. The G armor from 3U looks beast, the 4U G armor is decent in terms of looks and the LS is my favourite weapon to use.

10. The Black Beast.

11. I don't know. Hunters probably always run the risk of losing their hunter companions everytime they go hunting. Seeing your loved one getting chewed into bits by a dragon is probably not a nice experience. Even though having a hunter girlfriend would still be pretty nice.

12. 1) Getting eaten by a Deviljho.   2) Being thrown into a lavapool when hunting a monster in a volcano. 3) Getting blown up by blast blight.
