Meet Maurice, the palico monster hunter. He usually throws bombs at his targets. Depending on what the bombs do depends on which monster he’s against. He’s notorious for managing to make a Deviljho’s head explode (granted there was absolutely nothing left, but technically its head did explode… along with the rest of it). He won’t say how he did it, but he has the crater to prove it. Maurice isn’t a super wack-happy bomb enthusiast. He’d much rather use his hammer, which he rigged with some rockets made from Ratholos’s flame sacs, to give it a bit more oomph. He’s trying to get accepted into the G rank status, as most hunters see palicos as supporting felines, instead of actual hunters. Maurice enjoys going out alone though. He can choose to try and convince the monster to stop harassing the people or, if it reacts violently, trap or kill it. He doesn’t have to worry about others getting themselves killed. It’s less people to drag back with him. If you get in his way, you’re going to get blown up. He really doesn’t care much for humans. Maurice would much rather speak with a monster than kill it. If anything, he tries to avoid killing them, but when things get a little too tense, he tends to freak out and overreact. He doesn’t preform well under a time limit or stressful situations. He knows he’s good at what he does, and refuses to ‘prove’ himself to humans. I FARKIN LOVE PALICOS.
