Hunter Association

Being a Hunter is a highly respectable profession. Hunter's can be responsible for many things from capturing wanted criminals to finding new recipies to cook.

Becoming a Hunter
To become a Hunter two thing are required. To pass the Hunter exam and to learn Nen.

Finging the Exam
Hunter exam take place one a year and just getting to the Hunter exam is an extremely difficult challege. This is because there are too many people applying to become Hunter's every year for the examiners to see them all. To reduce the number's of applicants. The Hunter Association hires people, like the captain to pick out the best candidates to proceed to the Island where the Hunter Exam is held. If you are deemed unworthy by these people even if the make it to the exam site you will be turned away.

Once you are on the island you have to make your way to the Hunter exam starting point. However none of the candidates know where the Hunter exam will start and it is impossible to find without a Navigator. Each candiate must find a Navigator to take him to the exam but to eo this he must pass a series of test and traps, like 'The Exciting Quis of Two Answers'.

The Navigators themselves will set up a test for the candidates to see if they are good enough to take the exam. If they pass the navigators will take them to the staring place fo the first exam.

The Hunter Exam
The Hunter Exam is done in 5 satges, with each stage being designed to test the candidates skills and potential and to reduce the number of Examinees. The 5 satges are the 1st Stage, the 2nd Stage, the 3rd Stage, the 4th Stage and the Final Stage. However extra 'suprise' stages are sometimes added to test the candidates futher, like the 3rd Stage Bonus Round. The contenst of each stage changes every year because the examiners change evey year and the examiners decide what the stages will be. Chairman Netero oversees the exam and settles disputes between examiners when necessary.
