A Deviant of Malfestio, Hidden Haze Malfestio is special individual that can skillfully use its special scales.

Habitat Range
Hidden Haze Malfestio has been reported in the Jurassic Frontier.

Ecological Niche
Malfestio are mid-sized predators that feed on Herbivores, such as young Larinoth and Kelbi. Malfestio also occasionally feed on carrion of dead animals. Though Malfestio are top predators in their own right, they have to compete with other predators like Nargacuga, Tetsucabra, and Glavenus.

Biological Adaptions
Hidden Haze Malfestio has many of the same adaptions as Malfestio, however, there is a few differences between them. Unlike normal Malfestio, Hidden Haze Malfestio has more vibrant colors, including silver-colored scales. These silver scales can distort the surrounding light around it, allowing this Malfestio to use a special trick rarely seen in nature. By using its wings and scales, Hidden Haze Malfestio is able to go completely invisible, allowing for it to ambush prey easily. From this ability, Hidden Haze Malfestio can be considered unpredictable with some of its attacks. Besides turning invisible, Hidden Haze Malfestio is well-known for launching its special scales at foes in various forms. It launches the scale to confuse potential prey.

Behavior
Hidden Haze Malfestio is considered to be devilish, compared to normal Malfestio. Once invisible, Hidden Haze Malfestio will try to attack prey from its blind spot by using its wing claws. Because of this Malfestio's demonic nature, it was given the secondary name, Hidden Haze. Due to this, the Hunter's Guild only allow hunters with special permits to hunt them down.
