So, you're on your way to be a Monster Hunter right? But honestly, you've got quite a number of monsters in your list and you just don't know where to start! So, for budding Monster Hunters like you, Famitsu releases the different monster races that you will find in the Grand Pool archipelago.

There are 7 monster races in the archipelago of Grand Pool. These are the Slime race, Dragon race, Material race, Demonic race, Nature race, Zombie race, and Demon Animal race. Each one of these races have their own specific quality. Of course, they give us the dibs on what these qualities are.

The Slime race is the most popular among them, particularly because they are as good as mascots for Dragon Quest. They are highly bobbly creatures that can be easily found and defeated in the whole archipelago. The Dragon race is a strong creature whose breath can kill anyone. Most emit fire from their mouths, however, they are also known to cause snow storms by their breaths. The Material race are actually common things like kettles and pots that have been bewitched by demons.

On the other hand, the Nature race are demons who have transformed into trees or bugs and often uses the environment to hide themselves. The Zombie race are the immortal of the lot. You may not be able to kill them entirely because they are already dead to begin with, however, you could control them to your whim. The last two are the Demonic Animals and the the Demons who come from the nether world. A Demonic animal is a bewitched animal while the Demons come from the underworld to mess up the lives of people in Grand Pool.

The Famitsu update also gives us a Monster deity through Spedio (still unofficial name until the English release is out) however, they didn't say whether the monster god merits as another monster race.
