Hey everyone, Asteria here!
In this video I talk about the barely documented case of the Wyverian race of people in the Monster Hunter universe.
This topic has been something has always intrigued me, and something that people don't talk about that much.
Aside from videos discussing whether Wyverians come from eggs or not, there doesn't seem to be a lot of content on this topic.
So I decided to make a lore video, which took me some time to make.
But hey, I think it was worth it because I had lots of fun making it.
Chapters:
0:00 - Intro
1:09 - What are Wyverians?
2:06 - The Psychology of Wyverians
5:20 - Origin & Culture
8:42 - Conclusion and Outro

Hey guys, Asteria here!
Do you guys have any suggestions for the next video?
I'd be really interested to hear your thoughts!
What other humanoids are in the MH universe and what fantasy race would you want to see.
Mine is angels, onis, harpys and mermaids.
I like how Capcom takes fantasy beings but twist it in a way that would pass in real life.
@@bonesnsweets8474 It would be really interesting to see angels in the monster hunter universe for sure!
9:04 Technically, Rise having the Wyverian Earrings as a layered armor piece lets you play _somewhat_ as a wyverian character.
The finger count and leg anatomy is still off, and you can't use a helmet with it, though. So having an additional body type during character customization that at least gives you those features would be really cool.
I was going to talk about that, but felt I that, as it was a piece of armor/layered armor, it really wasn't worth mentioning.
I agree, it would be really cool to play as different races!
Thanks for watching by the way!
Adore the video! Here's some extra info on Wyverians:
- Wyverians actually have 2 languages:
1st is the ancient language lost to time and only spoken by the ancient Wyverians in World.
2nd is the unique language many of the very elderly Wyverians speak. Though we only get glimpse at it from many of the games, we get good audio of it from Stories's Cheif Omna and other very old Wyverians that get lines in World. Though you can hear the occasional elderly Wyverian in World speak it too such as the researchers you protect from Barroth. Unfortunately there is not a single person in MH Rise/Sunbreak that uses any ancient Wyverian. Every single wyverian in Rise falls into the below catagory.
Apart from many of the elderly Wyverians, most of the younger more acclimated or social Wyverians seem to use the standard language spoken, countless overlap happens between them and their human counterparts despite their elders not conforming to the modern language. Monster Hunter has always had this 1st vs 2nd generation immigrant feel about the Wyverians. The elders still use the language of the wyverns, yet their children have fully adopted the language of wherever they live.
(source: I've been studying the conlangs of Monster Hunter for the past 5 years.)
Thank you for the additional info on this topic!
And thank you for watching ^^
If humans evolved from apes then the wyverians evolved from wyverns. Which funny because that means that they are closer related to ratholos (etc…) than to humans.
I always found the coexistence between Humans and Wyverians to be a cool twist on the fantasy setting on human and elves.
Wyverians create almost everything from medicine, weapons and armors. So it makes sense that the majority don't do dangerous jobs when they have such a long life span. (I know some Wyverians can fight but majority of hunters are humans since they have a shorter life span.)
Humans are the risk takers that take on dangerous jobs such as exploring new locations and fighting monsters that either threaten the ecosystem or villages. Because humans always put their lives on the line Wyverians do their best to aid humans in their fight by creating the things humans need to succeed.
Humans and Wyverians have the best symbiotic relationship when it comes to human and elves. Unlike most fantasy elves who act snobby and all high and mighty they are thankful towards humans who act as meat shields for Wyverians.
Wyverians are smarter than elves because they found a way to 'tame' coexist with humans.
In short Wyverians are bros and I would love to see more demi humans in monster hunter such as angels, onis, harpys or mermaids.
Video Idea: What other humanoids exist in the Monster Hunter universe and what humanoid races would you want to see?
Bring back the Troverians! They appeared in all of ONE game.
Humans and the troverians, the sea people, and the felyne exist in such a fascinating societal symbiosis... Which the 'lakas are not quite integrated into.
I really wanna play tabletop in the MH world again...
Wonder if they lay eggs...
Me too...
@@AsteriaMHGod, the egg debate was the funniest damn thing to watch unfold live.
The short answer: probably not. Wyverians have bellybuttons. The only animals that have bellybuttons give live birth, since the bellybutton is what remains of the umbilical cord after growing. For example: monotremes like platypuses (platypi?) lay eggs. Unlike placental mammals, they lack bellybuttons.
Found this video from gathering hall discord lol, great video
Thank you!
Thanks for watching :)
I think the choice for village elders and other administrative officials to always be Wyverians is partially a case of the Guild's foresight, at least in areas where humans and Wyverians live together. Wyverians' closer link to nature probably makes them less prone to the pitfalls that human leaders often succumb to, such as power-hunger and greed. The Commander, Admiral and even the General might be special cases, in that their sense of duty keeps them from abusing their authority.
Honestly, His Immenseness may claim to only be the leader of Dundorma, but he's basically the leader of the entire Hunter's Guilld in all but name.
It'd be really cool if they add Wyverians as a playable race in future Monster Hunter titles
I'm of the same opinion as well!
If we can play as Lynians, why can't we play as other races of people, right?
I love the world monster hunter and while there are the art books that have some lore scattered through it, i wish there was an official series or something that showed off the world a bit more. The games only show you so much because they’re GAMES, that’s the primary focus, but you can tell the developers have put a lot of thought into this world, and don’t get to show off everything they’ve envisioned. With wyvarians as elf stand-ins, and shakalakas as goblin stand-ins, this is a lot like a standard fantasy setting, but you can tell there’s some nuances here and there
Humans but they’re cooler and live longer and are smarter and more better-er? Am I right?
i just wanted to know if the twins lay eggs...
The "I'd lay an egg" thing is actually an expression.
Sorry to break it to ya haha.
@@AsteriaMHI’d say some further research is required. 😈
@@felixthescholarlytitan4437 Maybe one day we'll know the truth ;)
🥚? Moga Village chief was human and also an ex hunter
Yeah obviously there are some exceptions, but a lot of them are Wyverians.
Another example would be MHGU's chief, which is a Human as well.
Hey dude I'm the one who found this video throught reddit
Hey man!
I hope you liked the video!
they lay eggs.
Based.
No, they don't
No, they don’t lay eggs
It's questionable :v
Yes, they do
5:00 Mans really forgetting that the village chief in Tri and 3U is human.
Big oof on my part, I know...
@@AsteriaMH It's not a big deal I just found it kinda funny
@@765craven4 Thanks, you're a real one ngl
Thanks for watching as well!
i wish we could create a wyverian
Me too!
Has there ever been a record of a human and wyverian hybrid?
It's time that we adress the elephant in the room

Do they actually lay eggs?
Ok but do they lay eggs?
Still there are considerably less hunters amont wyverians if we compare them to humans. There should be the reason besides "They tend to like the academic work more".
It seems that they've kind of specialized in a way - leave the dangerous work to the ephemerals... or to the descendants of supersoldiers if we go by the artbook
So..can they lay eggs?😂
Maybe...
Egg laying elves
Its kokoto not kotoko
Thanks, I knew something was off xD
