Re: Funding semi-realistic monster hunters
The creation of such organization could be pretty spontaneous.
An investment banker with unusually strong willpower gets visited by a horrific creature who attempts to mind control him. Deciding its in his best interests to play along he just listens to the thing and nods a lot when the monster talks to him like he is thrall, eventually turning over a multi-million dollar account to manage.
The banker vanishes into the night and uses the money to build an organization stop such groups.
A rich woman looks into the death of her young son in unusual circumstance and eventually discovers the truth- eaten by vampires. She dedicates her sizable fortune to wiping those beasts out.
A few thieves break into a house and are attacked by the werewolf owner, only by luck do they happen to run it through with a 'lucky' silver pen-knife. When they clear the place out they realize that there is SERIOUS money in targeting supernatural creatures exclusively- the lack of investigation into the death makes it all the more tempting to repeat the process.
