!!Monster Hunter International (MHI)

The group of bounty hunters that Owen and Julie are a part of. Consisting of the survivors of paranormal encounters, these badasses kill paranormal forces and collect the PUFF (Perpetual Unearthly Forces Fund) bounties afterwards.

!!Monster Control Bureau (MCB)
----
A secret federal agency that's dedicated to the concealment of the paranormal, no matter how many witnesses need intimidating (or even outright killed) to do so. This group also acts as the {{ObstructiveBureaucrat}}s in the setting, meddling in the affairs of MHI, though they'll often set aside their differences should a situation becomes dire enough.

[[folder:Julie Shackleford]]

->"Personally, I'd found there were few misunderstandings that couldn't be cured with a sufficient quantity of silver delivered at a high enough velocity."

One of the most important figures in Monster Hunter International, a company her family has run for over a century, Julie operates in the field and behind the scenes, hammering out contracts. Raised to be a Monster Hunter from a very early age, Julie has never known anything else. Comfortable with most weapons, Julie specializes in sniper rifles, acting as her team's sharpshooter.

* HeroicSelfDeprecation: When visiting Appleton, Owen is deeply uncomfortable when he's seen by the patients as a hero, as he describes himself as "not particularly brave," and that it's noble men like Trip Jones who are the real heroes.

* UnstoppableRage: Owen's usually rather friendly, but he was trained from childhood by his father to be prepared to *survive.* When pushed too far, Owen's temper gets the better of him and he unleashes terrific pain and suffering upon his enemies.

Characters from *Monster Hunter International*



[[folder:Owen Zavasta "Z" Pitt]][[/folder]]

The main protagonist of the series, Owen Zavasta Pitt, or "Z," as his friends call him, is one of the Chosen Ones, capable of using artifacts of tremendous mystical power and having a destiny that can shape the fate of the world. In short, he drew the short straw of destiny.

Raised by a harsh, militant father to be prepared for anything, Owen rebelled by becoming an accountant, one of the most boring jobs he could think of. However, destiny decided to call in on his short straw and Owen wound up killing his deranged boss by tossing him out of a fourteenth story window. His boss happened to be a werewolf at the time and Owen came very close to dying.

Waking up in the hospital days later, Owen gets a warning from Agents Myers and Franks of the MCB and a job offer from Earl Harbinger. Realizing that his incredible experience was real and certain that he wouldn't be able to readjust to the "normal" world, Owen decides to make good on Earl's offer and joins Monster Hunter International.

It's a hard calling, but a good calling. And things only serve to get far more complicated for Owen.
