 * 1) Yeah. I find the hunters are what differenciates the series from other action games. They can either look cool and badass when wielding giant pointy sticks and demonic armors and at the same time goofy and funny with some typically manga-like actions such as emotes. They are one of the two spirits that makes the licence. The other part being the monsters, of course.


 * 2) Their height. I'm as tall as them and yet i wouldn't have the guts to physically do half of what they can do. It's extraordinary.


 * 3) Never bothered to find a backstory to my hunter. I keep this stuff for roleplaying and i never ever roleplayed in MH, i'm too dedicated a technical player to bother doing this.


 * 4) Science and technology advancement, what else? I'd love researching about monsters and the materials that come from them. I'd even look forward to invent and craft gear out of it.


 * 5) Yes and no. While i love nature and science, i'd feel really insecure facing even a Great Jaggi considering this beast could barely fit in my room and it's full of nasty pointy teeth. I'd rather become an artisan.


 * 6) Guild Knight doesn't seem like a constructive choice. While i would participate in spreading the Guild's philosophy, i'd rather do it by helping it improve its knowledge, lore, and knowhow.


 * 7) In no way. Why would it change anything?


 * 8) Kirin seems like a nice legendary foe to defeat. It's considered a ghost, after all. Doing that i would help the hunting world knowing about monsters that are considered fairy tales.


 * 9) Gameplay-wise i use anything i feel like, i like to master them all, hence the variety of my  sets, which i use mixed for the sake of efficiency, even if i actually prefer full sets. But in my heart, i'm in love with firearms, so Gunlance or Bowguns would fit me. As for the armor, something fiery and passionate would fit my desire to explore and experiment the world - like a Rathalos armor.


 * 10) Artillery Queen/King. Because i might be one of the most gunpowder-consuming hunter around.


 * 11) Sure, i'd love have friends to share intense moments and discoveries with, and form a great cooperating team. For love, nothing is sure. Risky jobs can bring sadness home if ever something would happen to me. But hey, why not that cute hunting partner wearing Hermitaur armor set?


 * 12) First way: Iced and licked like an ice cream by a Gigginox. Second way: Gobbled by a Gobul. Third way: Accidentally blowing myself up with a barrel bomb.
