Alma (Summer)

Alma is the dedicated Handler for the Avis Unit in Monster Hunter Wilds, specializing in cultural anthropology and archaeology to study the Forbidden Lands. Trained under Fabius at the academy, she is a scholar who investigates ancient civilizations and unearths rare relics. Alma personally selected the player character, seeking someone who understood loss to aid in protecting Nata and uncovering the secrets of his people. Unlike previous handlers, Alma is a trained researcher focused on history and culture, which helps in communicating with local tribes. Before the main expedition, she was on a Guild airship with Fabius, where she discovered the unconscious boy, Nata, in the desert. She has a passion for discovering ancient relics and analyzing strange curiosities to understand past inhabitants of the region. Her knowledge makes her vital for the Avis Unit's mission, which involves navigating the politics and mysteries of local tribes in the Forbidden Lands. Alma is actively involved in the field, often facilitating safe contact with unknown cultures, as shown by her recognizing the "salute" of the tribe in the Windward Plains. She acts as both a researcher and a supporting partner to the player, with a deep interest in the history of the world, rather than just the creatures inhabiting it.
