I've been a fan of the Monster Hunter franchise ever since I first played the MH4U demo, and an idea for a RP has been bouncing around in my brain like a Level 3 Normal Shot (sorrynotsorry for the crappy analogy). This would have a maximum of five players total-- four hunters, and possibly one other person to play the monsters the hunters run up against. This RP would take place in an alternate timeline, and have as many monsters from the games as possible, within biological sense. In addition to this, I'll be introducing and mixing in a few more ideas, both original(-ish) and from the expanded universe. This includes monsters only seen in the manga, anime, and spin-off games, as well as the concept of Monster Riders, albeit without having Ride Monsters be exactly like the Monsties from Monster Hunter Stories; in addition, certain collaboration materials/items (ie- Legend of Zelda, Universal Studios Japan, Uniqlo, etc.) will be able to be used.



At this point, I would like to ask anyone interested to visit the Wikia and suggest monsters you'd like to see in the field guide. Some monsters will automagically be in the guide (Rathalos and Rathian, as well as all of their Variants, Subspecies, Rare Species, Deviants, and Lone Species, for example), but I want to flesh this world out as much as possible. Hell, if a fan-made monster/subspecies is suggested for the field guide, it could very well wind up in the wild!

So this is the foundation of my plan. Any takers?

Bump!

Bumping again in a bid to keep my sanity.

Bump!

@Otaku95 hey, I'd love to do a monster hunter RP. Did you have a CS in mind?

@Lunar Not off the top of my head, but something like so:

Name:
Age:
Race: (The main races are humans, Wyverians, Sea Folk, and Troverians)
Specialty: (Gunner— using bowguns and bows— or Blademaster— using melee weapons; can also be a jack of all trades, but weapons and armor for both classes are hard to come by)
Main Weapon types: (Maximum of three; consult the Wiki for weapon classes)
Appearance: (Description or image are fine)
Equipment: (All Hunters will start with beginner armor and weapons; update this when you get new weapons and armor)
Personality: (Optional, but a good idea)
Backstory: (Ditto)
Notes: (Character quirks, hobbies, interests, etc. that wouldn't fit either above category)

@Otaku95

Sorry it took me so long.

@Otaku95 Also I have a question. are we gonna do the loot system kinda like the manga, where you get the armor set and weapons(s) from a single monster? That way you wouldn't need to "grind" for that one plate or resource to make only one of the pieces. I just think that would increase the longevity of this RP aswell as make it more enjoyable.

@Otaku95 poke poke.

@Lunar I do apologize for not being online. Yes, the equipment system will be the same as the manga, unless another beastie interrupts carving, (ie- "We finally killed that pair of Raths! :D " "… OH F*CK A KUSHALA DAORA! D: ").

If nobody else joins, we can make this a 1×1.

@Otaku95 Sounds good.

Also I think the monsoul thing is a good idea. And I came up with a few monsters that I think should be in the field guide. There is the Deviljho, all lagiagrus races, Baruragaru, and Zinogre. (Zinogre makes my favorite armor and switch axe, there so cool. XD) @Otaku95

Edit: Sorry. False alarm. Interest wouldn't sustain after another check of the OP.

@ArenaSnow I'm sorry to hear that.

Bump

If this is still open, I have been wanting to do some MH RP for quite some time. I would absolutely be interested in joining if this is still happening.

I'm intrigued, keep me posted. It's been a while since I played, but it's a super interesting universe

Actually @Tominas and @Laios we were just about to make it an 1x1 but I guess we don't need to now, your timing is perfect. Thank you for showing interest!

@Lunar
Hey, it's cool. I haven't really done a small-scale rp, so I'm looking forward to seeing how this goes

@Laios@Tominas I'd be up for accepting! ^^
