Monster Hunters

While most monsters could be defeated with enough manpower and munitions, such a display of force sends any but the most mindless of them into hiding. That is not to mention the logistical issues behind the amount of casualties and routs the right monster can cause.

And so, monster hunters are officially licensed by most governments to combat the problem. They are barred from becoming bounty hunters due to an edict to reduce their influence. However, it is well-known that monster hunters often divulge in vigilantism.

Skills
"Oi! You may know more than me, but books don't slay monsters."

Due to the vast demands on a monster hunter, most of them end up dabbling in a multitude of fields. Some specialize to various degrees but they seldom rival true specialists in their fields.
