Suggested Characteristics

There are many reasons you could have taken up the hunt such as vengeance for a village or loved one destroyed, for the glory and thrill of hunting such dangerous game, or simply to be a protector of the people and rid the world of its terrors. Though anyone can hunt a monster it is rare for another monster to do so, still someone so accustomed to out-of-doors living generally holds a bit of disdain for local lords and their law.
