I'm always on the lookout for Monster Hunter stories (and Monster Hunter Stories), and RPing is no exception to my rule. Unfortunately for me, though, it seems there are very few people looking for RPs set in the universe (even after World/Iceborne and Rise/Sunbreak gave the series a wider audience in the Western hemisphere). I have two ideas in mind for conducting MonHun RPs here on the forum.
- 1x1: Fairly simple. I and another player create a story together, and take turns playing the monster during different hunts. For example, hunt one would be Great Jagras (played by me), while the next hunt would be Kulu-Ya-Ku (played by my partner)
- Small group: This is something I haven't done before, but I want to give GMing a shot. In this case, I would play the monsters and major NPCs (ie- a Guild Master, the smithy, a Palico assisting the Hunters, etc.). I might try something with dice in order to randomize combat a little bit, but for my first attempt, I want to keep it simple.
I would love any kind of feedback or questions for these ideas, and if you have any, feel free to drop a comment or a PM.
