Navirou ( ナビルー, Nabirū) Voiced by: M.A.O (Japanese) Trina Nishimura (English) A peculiar and egotistical Airou who accidentally stumbled across Hakum Village one day and never left. Unlike the other riders, he formed kinship with a Rathalos he found himself instead of one given to him by the village. A new generation of riders now has to find a way to stop the blighted monsters without having to destroy them outright.Ĭharacters Lute ( リュート, Ryūto) Voiced by: Mutsumi Tamura (Japanese) Brittney Karbowski (English) A young boy who aims to be the best monster rider who was brought to Hakum Village after his parents' death.

As Lute adventures with his friends and learns more about monster riding, a past threat remerges called the Dark Blight, infecting the nearby forest and leading to more aggressive monster attacks. Due to monster riding being a taboo skill in a society filled with monster hunters, Hakum Village is isolated from the outside world and keeps its riding tradition a secret to all but a few privileged individuals. Riders form a bond with friendly monsters called Monsties hatched from eggs, riding them as mounts for travel and combat. Lute and his friends Cheval, Lilia, and Navirou live in Hakum Village, where chosen children learn to be Riders.
