I think I have come up with a pleasantly stylish character for comical relief. Posting the CS in the next 12 hours (dunno when I can get internet and free time)

PS: I never played a Monster Hunter game before, but I am excited for the new title on PS 4.

[Lmpkio]

@6slyboy6 The most recent game that came out is Monster Hunter Generations for the 3DS. If you have a 3DS, you might wanna buy it.

(Or if you have like an iphone there's MONSTER HUNTER FREEDOM UNITE for the ios).

@Lmpkio

Personally I think Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate is the better of the 3DS titles. If you don't have a Wii U, MH 3 Ultimate is also worth getting. I don't like the iOS one because I don't think the touch screen controls work for it at all.

We were SUPPOSED to be getting Double Cross (Generations but better) on both 3DS and Switch, but Capcom has suddenly gone quiet on that front because they want to focus on World. If we don't get it I'mma be pissed.

@Zeroth@Lmpkio

I have an Android phone, and a Windows PC. They closed me outta the market (and for so many other games as well)

[Lmpkio]

@Zeroth I have 4U - haven't touched it in ages thanks to silver rathalos and Molten Tigrex - but I'd like to restart with Generations. Will probably still play 4U just because.

And yeah I don't like the idea of MH on the phone.

Bon appetit!

Spud

Name: Sir Spud, the Potato Knight

Appearance: <TBA>

Age: 20

Gender: Male/Potato

Gear:
-Worn farmer overalls: Good ol' potato bustin jeans, from the best of all them farmers outta there. Hamd sewn, with some added cow learher straps for added protection around joints.

-Red checked shirt: The trusty friend of any farmer who wants to look casual and professional at the same time whilst farming 'tatos. The red color is narely visible frim years of hard work, and there are many extra cloth pieces sewn into the material.

-Busted steel helmet without visor: Nice and rusty, like the rest of the tools on the farmlands. This helmet has been "repaired" with a large hammer not fit for such delicate jobs, during which process the helmet's vusor part broke off, and now hangs as a cosmetical piece on the top of the helmet.

-Trusty Pitchfork: Bring the mob, because this trusty pitchfork will vandalise any monster with it's rusted steel tips. Numbers show that this pitchfork has 280% better effiency than swords if a large enough mob wields them against a monster.

Fighting Style/Tactics:
Spude doesn't need no tactic, a farmer boy gotta swing the trusty 'fork, and all th baddies be gone in an instant. Just stab and jab and swing this baby around, and you are guarenteed to inflict some PAIN._{PAIN infloction not guaranteed and may result in permanent damage in the user or teammates}

Useful Skills:
-Spudness (Infection Lv.1): Sir Spud is no ordinary farmboy. His innate love for potatoes and close encounter with a few nasty 'tato monsters ,that may or may not have infected him with a disease, gave him a set of unnatural abilities he can utilise in combat.

Pros:

• -Weak Regeneration: As the muscles turn steadely into monster/plant tissues, Spud gains the ability to regenarate. At this point he can recover from serious wounds over time, or rejuvinate quickly after combat.
• -GROW: Spud grows in size overtime like a potato would during the plant's season. Neat.
• -Funky Smell: Spud releases hormones that act as a weak concealment. From far away, he smells like another plant or plant monster.
  
  Cons:
• -Tatos for cooking: Spud's akin has become quite flammabe and cannot resist heat for long. Side effect of his plant genes.
• -Tatos for peeling: Spud's skin has bevome very much like a 'tato and it can be easely bruised, pierced, cut or peeled.

Personality Buff(s): Tho little Spud (formerly known as Joe) has been a potato farmer his whoooole life, he been fighting off tato monsters for a long time. His innate love for these delicious treats affects him in his daily life, becoming obsessed with tatos and their ideas. He sees the inner spud in everything, and even treats monsters like 'tatos. Put em on a fork, cook em, and then have a nice feast.

Now Spud ain't the sharpest tool in the shed (not like the shed has a fine collection of tools), so he be not the most knowledgable around, so he uses his farmer guts and worker wisdom to get around obstacles. He probably be the first one to spot the obvious answer to an obvious question, and he knows a lot about hard work and fixing up busted gear.

Comical Relief: He be making lotsa farmer jokes along the way.

[GodOfWar]

@6slyboy6 Sir Spud looks fantastic. Approved. I'll get the IC up tonight, @Everyone.

[GodOfWar]

@jackalopelove How's the CS coming along?

[6slyboy6]

@GodOfWar I hoped you'd say that! Considering this is my brainchild from 11:30 PM that I wrote on a mobile, I am pretty proud of his comical characteristics. And he has a lot of room to GROW (pun intended)

[JackalopeLove]

@GodOfWar Yeah sorry about the wait but I got it up now!

Ailbe Whelan

Name: Ailbe Whelan

Appearance:

My Hider

My Hider

Age: 34


Gender: Female

Gear:
Chain Armor Helm
Chain Armor Mail
Chain Armor Braces
Chain Armor Tassets
Chain Armor Greaves

Lava Pick / Burly Beak

Fighting Style/Tactics: Ailbe once was a great warrior but has shifted into a more protective role for what ever group she may be paired up with. She is very stable and nearly impossible to knock off her feet once in a defensible position, though her heavy defense comes at a cost of speed. Not being able to run on the target leaves Ailbe as a stationary front line keeping the target separated from the back line. Ailbe does not create plans but instead focuses on the unpredictable situations. Killing the monster is a secondary target while making sure all of her group stays safe is the primary.

Useful Skills: Ailbe may be hard on the battle field but once out of combat she is as soft as warm butter. The woman is extremely friendly and well liked by most people she meets, which allows for some special treatment in some villages. Also as a retired Guild Knight Ailbe still has some sway with the Guild and is allowed some special treatment.

Because of her history in the Guild Knights, Ailbe is well versed in the lands and is able to help direct the group to the nearest land marks or villages.

Personality Buff(s): Ailbe has very caring nature to her, she is almost like a mother bear protecting her cubs in combat. She has seen many lose their lives to monsters, so she will do everything she can to protect others from harm. When ever she is blocking for someone besides herself she gains extra defense against the attack. Her slow speed also allows for stronger fortification techniques.

Outside of combat, she is a jolly person with hundreds of tales to tell around a campfire. Her kind and fun personality always creates good relationships and brings good people together. Though when pushed to the edge she can snap and go into a berserkers rage, very rarely though.

Miscellaneous: Ailbe from a child always wanted to be a monster hunter, dreams of killing the biggest beasts always raced through her head. She trained in armed combat and prepared to fight the beasts as she grew older in age. Unfortunately, she grew up in a family of Guild Knights and that was the expectation that would lead her into that career path. Ailbe did not complain though she was still grateful to be apart of the monster hunting life.

It came as part of the job to take the laws of monster hunting to heart, she knew the price that those paid for not following them. Many eager hunters made the mistake of killing monsters that were not permitted, so Ailbe and her fellow Guild Knights took care of them. It was a difficult job but someone needed to do it, and Ailbe was good at it. As she grew older the job became sickening, she grew tired of the simple combat with the poachers. Always ending in a victory for the Guild and death for the poachers.

Eventually, Ailbe decided enough was enough and at the age of 35 she laid down her uniform and picked up a beginners suit of armor. She wanted to become a Monster Hunter. She retired young for the job, but it was no longer a life she wanted to live. Her fellow knights understood and respected her desition to live her childhood dream. Ailbe was finally going to be a Monster Hunter.

Theme:

[6slyboy6]

@JackalopeLove Wow talk about harsh treatment. Pkachers getting roasted if they hunt in the wrong neighborhood. This girl must be a god if she can still be kind and friendly after putting miscreants on the tip of her blade for many years.

[GodOfWar]

@JackalopeLove Alibe looks good to go. IC will be going up tonight or maybe tomorrow, based on my schedule.

[6slyboy6]

@GodOfWar *waiting intensifies*

[GodOfWar]

@6slyboy6 I knooowwww, I'm sorry. I'm filling in for my friend at work and trying to write at the same time, so it may be a little bit. Sorry guys.

[GodOfWar]

I'm sorry for the wait, everyone. Work has been weird and I just got home from a big trip so it took awhile to get the IC post typed up.

[Zeroth]

@GodOfWarIs there any background info we should take note of when making an intro-post? Like what kinds of small monsters, plants, or other materials would be in the area, how close it is to civilization--is a village in this same environment going to be our base, or is it assumed we've somehow come here from a town much further away?--and what the assumed nature of the party is at this point?

Regarding that last one, the first post kind of makes it sound like we're all grouped up together, on the same quest, embarking on the hunt. But with Gaki I had assumed that he'd be meeting up with other players within the wilderness itself and wouldn't even be an "official" Hunter until they got back to town and took him to a Guild or a Gathering Hall with them. Would that work or is it going to be too inconvenient?
