Xeno'jiiva Ecology

In-Game Information
[Researching]

Habitat Range
Xeno'jiiva is found only at the Confluence of Fates, located deep in the Elder's Recess.

Ecological Niche
Little is known about Xeno'jiiva, since it is an entirely new species of Elder Dragon unknown to the Guild. It is unknown whether Xeno'jiiva is a new lifeform born from accumulated bioenergies or merely feeds on said energies. The Third Fleet Master proposes that Xeno'jiiva might be a creature that needs to consume the energies of other lifeforms in order to grow.

It hasn't been determined whether Xeno'jiiva is the cause of the Elder Crossing, using some kind of pheromone to draw aging Elders across the sea, or if the New World was already a graveyard for dragons and Xeno'jiiva was merely exploiting the resident energies of the land. Either way, it incubated in bioenergy and craved more. In recent years, there has been a drastic surge in the land's energies. It's implied that Xeno'jiiva is responsible for drawing Zorah Magdaros away from its intended resting place in the Rotten Vale, endangering the New World.

Biological Adaptations
Xeno'jiiva can breathe blue fire and concentrate it into a beam, which superheats the crystalline ground.

Behavior
Xeno'jiiva is immediately hostile the moment it emerges from its cocoon. At first, it relies on trampling its foe, but demonstrates increasing mastery over its breath weapon and flight as the fight continues.
