Sister Aurelia

Palicos are trusted, humanoid Felyne companions in Monster Hunter who train to support hunters in battle, sharing a long history with human civilization. As intelligent, cat-like Lynians, they often seek to earn a living through adventuring, providing crucial combat support, curing ailments, and managing logistical tasks. They belong to a distinct species called Lynians (specifically, Felynes) that are known for having existed for centuries and perhaps predate humans. "Palico" is a professional title. A Felyne that works for a hunter is known as a Palico, whereas others might be wild, peaceful villagers, or the kleptomaniac black cats known as Melynx. They become Palicoes to gain the benefits of civilized life, such as food and shelter, while pursuing the "noble job" of hunting. When a hunter is knocked out, Palicoes are the ones who rescue them and bring them back to camp on a cart, often taking a portion of the quest reward as payment. In Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin, specific Palicoes like Tsukino have more detailed roles, such as serving as specialized partners (e.g., to the character Kyle) and acting as observers. Palicoes are considered loyal and often provide comedic relief but are also skilled in using traps (shock traps, shock-kitonators), healing, and drawing monster attention with the Shieldspire. Sister Aurelia is a Palico nun who is part of a Catholic Church where citizens and Hunters alike can attend. She is very nice and is not accompanied by any human. The Palico nuns are like regular nuns, but they are Palicoes.
