A universal constant is that a Hunter should go to therapy.
All the trauma and death that shrouds their world would mess up anyone. However, they can't get risk it as a psychiatrist might think them insane and lock them in an asylum.
When psychology is only beginning, would Hunters have even considered seeking help?

Another universal constant is that Hunter's work should be done in the shadows, the same ones where the monsters lurk in.
Modern-day hunters are seen as criminals and get arrested by the police due to misinterpreted evidence of perceived crimes.
What about during an underdeveloped time, when technology was less refined and evidence was tougher to acquire?
Sure, there'd be less evidence...
However, the police wouldn't really care if a person was honestly guilty. They'd carry out their duties with fewer morals and fewer restrictions.
Would it really be a better time to be a Hunter?

What if there was a Hunter after Samuel Colt (1814 - 1862), but before Eliot Ness (1903 - 1957)?
Samuel Colt lived during a time when there was less policing.
Eliot Ness was the police.
The hunter in-between had both and neither in a way.

Nicholas Taylor (1854 - 1916) - The investigator in the shadows.
The Victorian Hunter.
The one who lost his mind.
