Things You May Not Know About Osutogaroa(Info comes from MHX)

Note: There is potentially more info on this monster, including the Ferocious state, so I'll post more info on a later date.


 * Osutogaroa is a rarely seen Elder Dragon that is able to make a lair out of the bones and corpses of its prey. These lairs are known as Dragon Graveyards.
 * These graveyards can be about as big as a mountain.
 * From Osutogaroa using the bones and corpses of its prey, Osutogaroa gets the title, Corpse Dragon.
 * It is able produce a special mucus that is used for capturing prey. This mucus is like glue, sticking down prey.
 * Though this mucus is used for capturing prey, Osutogaroa has another use for the mucus. This mucus is used to help prevent bones from corroding, stick bones together, and to prevent the bones from collapsing. With this mucus, it can make a protective bone armor to protect itself from attacks and even use some bones as weapons.
 * This mucus is known to have a eerie blue glow.
 * Due to Osutogaroa having huge appetites, they can easily wipe out all life in a surrounding area. This effects those ecosystems greatly on a destructive level, making it harder for species to thrive in said areas.
 * Osutogaroa have even shot down some airships due to them mistaken the airships for food. This suggest that some flying species aren't safe from this Elder Dragon.
 * Some of the monsters that have been identified to have been eaten by a Osutogaroa include Uragaan, Lagiacrus, Dinovaldo, and Brachydios.
 * Recently, one Osutogaroa was spotted in the Ancient Forest and it already wiped out a large portion of an area. When its Dragon Graveyard was discovered, the Hunter's Guild immediately sent hunters to repel it before it could bring further damage to that ecosystem.
 * It is said that it eventually returned in attempt to feed itself.
 * Osutogaroa has been seen using various monster parts to attack foes or to kill prey. Some parts that it has been seen using is a Dinovaldo's skull, a Lagiacrus' shell shockers, a Brachydios' pounders, and a Uragaan's chin.
 * It is hard to identify some of these parts due to Osutogaroa altering their shapes in order for it to use them.
 * Osutogaroa is said to be intelligent.
 * The hard shell is used as armor though its large size is one of nature's mysteries.
 * With enough mucus covering it, the shell will harden.
 * The skull, covering Osutogaroa, is just terrifying to look at. It has a evil aura surrounding it too.
 * Vertebra, covering its back, has a disturbing sound that terrifies most. Despite the size, it is light.
 * Its skin is a beautiful blue and stretchy.
 * Osutogaroa's arms are sticky and hard. While covered in bone, they resemble a mouth.
 * Similar to a cuttlefish, Osutogaroa has a cuttlebone.
 * Its mouth has many thorn-like teeth in it. This mouth is able to chew through a wyvern's bone easily.
 * A gem contains traces of all of the monsters Osutogaroa has previously eaten.
 * Interestingly, a Guild Master in the 2nd Generation mentioned a graveyard filled with bones of monsters in a older game.
