The next few pages have stat blocks and blurbs about each monster, from the Monster Hunter universe, that have been included in the supplement. They are all ready to use (at the appropriate GR of course) and can be used as standalone encounters ‘orcombined into groups. There are two primary classifications of monster in the Monster Hunter universe Small Monsters and Large Monsters. Small Monsters ‘Small Monsters are any monster from the MH universe that can be fought in small groups without much trouble. Most of these monsters are size Medium or smaller, and are suitable as group encounters. Hunters will have a rather easy time dealing with small monsters and as such it is a good idea to include at least one large monster with a pack of small monsters. Large Monsters Large monsters are monsters from the MH universe that, are usually fought as single monsters or with a group of ‘small monsters. All of these monsters are size Large or larger and are suitable as solo encounters. Hunters will have a somewhat difficult time dealing with Large monsters so it is advised to not include more than two at a time. Be wary of the CR of large monsters, as well as the size of your hunting party, when including multiple large monsters in an encounter! 20
