MONSTER HUNTER FREEDOM UNITE! *a literate monster hunter RP* [OOC/SU/Quest Bulletin thread]

[KurtZisa]

Arcgaea...

A world filled and ruled purely by nature itself. A world rich in natural resources and abundant in biodiversity inhabited by numerous species of animals ranging from herbivores to carnivores. All living according to the law of nature.

But if nature has its beauty and grace, it also has its dreaded and deadly fangs underneath its beautiful appearance. Dragons and Wyverns roam the world and coexisting together within the biodiversity of Arcgaea; all of them living in their natural habitat; Different species and subspecies of dragons exists with nature itself. Extremely territorial and very ferocious beings, they are the most dominating species in Arcgaea. One would be a fool to face a Dragon unarmed.

---------------------------

And since nature is very abundant, the biodiversity of animals outnumber the human population together with other intelligent creatures.

They have gathered together in groups and some of them founded their own communities and established their own small towns protected by thick walls to protect them from stray dragon attacks.
And since most of them are hunters, the Hunter Guild was born.

Hunting was the human population's main means of labor. And the ones who aren't capable of facing the harsh nature surrounding them became fishermen, farmers and miners. Some of the population began domesticating animals from the wild. The Hunter's Guild sole purpose is to train elite hunters by assigning them quests and assignments which involves hunting monsters and gathering materials in a very hostile environment in exchange of money and miscellaneous materials that can be useful to the hunter's bargain.

--------------------------

Through the years, most of the hunters rose through the ranks on the guild. Slaying from tenacious Wyverns to fearsome Dragons. But to them, it wasn't enough to quickly rose from rank to rank, all hunters yearn to face the 7 legendary Elder Dragons that once ruled nature itself and make them their personal trophy.

It is said in the ancient archives that the 7 legendary Elder Dragons lived and walked the very earth of Arcgaea millions of years ago. Each of them has its own natural habitat and often times they themselves clashed in a epic battle that can destroy an island with such destruction. And even one of them lead to the extinction of an ancient civilization of humans thousand of years ago. But as of today, the Elder Dragons were a rarity in the human eyes. None of them are to be found walking through the very earth itself.

According to the ancient archives, these Elder dragons were more than a force to be reckoned with and hunting or even finding one of them takes tremendous amount of skill and patience.

Natural Habitats/Locations

Glacia Peaks

The icy mountain range. Rich,abundant vegetation from the foot of the mountain range that is home to most of the herbivore species. It also has numerous small lakes and streams found on the other side with crystal clear waters coming from the mountains above.

The mountain range's series of icy tunnels are filled with natural peril and various carnivore species roam and hunt within the cold and pitch-black darkness. But the caves or tunnels itself are rich in ores and other minerals that is essential to mining. Many hunters have fallen into their icy graves within these tunnels. Extra caution is needed in entering this icy labyrinth.

The peaks of the mountain range or the snow caps holds small biodiversity of herbivores but are natural feeding grounds to mountain wyverns. Strong blizzards are most often here in the summits, with temperature below zero.

Sol Jungle

The deep jungles of Sol. The vegetation here is most abundant along with towering trees and numerous kinds of vines and mosses. It holds very little herbivore biodiversity but much insectivore biodiversity.

This jungle is also situated near the seashore that is a natural habitat of cephalods. In the middle of the jungle, houses the most largest vespoid hive that houses the Vespoid Queen, the vespoids are giant hornets that lived in mass colonies and in this area is their largest hive.

Their are also numerous network of caverns found here. These caverns were once a natural habitat of one of the legendary Elder Dragons. The cave formation is as astonishing as it looks. The inner part of the cavern network is made of water-formed crystals, great for mining. The cave also houses most of the insectivore population here and some carnivore biodiversity.

At the high ground, lies the breeding ground for wyverns most of their nest can be found here.

Grothian Highlands

The tall highlands. Houses most of the mountain wyvern biodiversity. These hills and towering crags are rich in vegetation; many herbivore species are to be found here.

At the higher level, houses the largest breeding ground of mountain and rock wyverns. But the summit itself is made out of carbonite material that is used in forging powerful armaments. Only the elite hunters are allowed to mine at the summit.

Mt. Tarkan

The largest volcano in Arcgaea. It has less less herbivore biodiversity and numerous lava pools are found here. The volcanic caves in this area are dragon graveyards that is filled with volcanic minerals.

Rock and Fire wyverns are abundant in this area, the whole area is their hunting ground for food. It is said in the legend that two of the Elder Dragons once fought in here in an epic battle. Hence this area was dubbed, "The Battleground of Titans".

Saulu Desert

The hottest desert on Arcgaea. Hot at day and cold at night. Because of the mineral, Basarium found beneath the sands, the land itself reflect's ultra-violet rays giving it a mass greenhouse effect.

But at night, the cold winds from Glacia Peaks blows from this direction making some of the areas here cool and almost freezing.

At the oasis, the desert river is situated here. Near the oasis, erects a large ravine of Basarium. The heat from the outside can't enter inside thus the very cold temperature inside. Deep within the ravine, the Saulu spring can be found here that is connected to the desert river outside.

The vast desert is also the natural habitat of sand piscines or what the Hunter's Guild call the "Land Sharks" that swim on the sands like water to hunt for food.

Taoma Marshlands

The marshlands. Numerous swamps and predator traps are found here. At day, the marsh is covered with heavy mist and at night, most of its areas are danger zones that is filled with poisonous Dragonium gas that is harmful to humans. The gas comes from the mixed carcasses of dead Wyverns and the mineral contents of the tar pits.

Poison Wyverns and scavengers roam this area and is the least populated area in Arcgaea. The caves here are rich in Light crystals but the caves itself are nesting grounds for poison wyverns.
