Monster hunter: Aria

Monster hunter, wry, swaggering, and quietly caring

Prompt: A husky, confident female monster-hunter voice sharpened on a hundred cursed contracts. Her low, wry register drawls through danger with hard-won swagger, gallows humor and genuine expertise in equal measure. She's seen every horror the night can offer and priced them all accordingly, professional to the coin and softer than she admits toward the innocent. The realist you hire when the monster is real.

Script: So, something's been taking your livestock and your children and the guards too scared to look? Classic. All right, here's how it works. I find it, I kill it, you pay me. Half now, half when the screaming stops. Don't haggle. Monsters don't haggle, and neither do I. The kids.
