Akura Vashimu

The Akura Vashimu is a scorpion-like monster that is featured only in Monster Hunter Frontier 3.0. The Akura has blue-purple crystals growing on its claws, back, and tail tip. It has a huge geode mineral on its tail tip that shoots out a high-pressure poison at its enemies, causing them to be semi-frozen (like the Snowman effect) and lose all stamina (like the Chameleos gas effect). The Akura rests and hides underground, protruding its large mineral tail tip on the surface. If it is aware of nearby enemies, its tail breaks out of the sand and swings around violently, hurting any nearby enemies. It is possible to temporarily break the tail crystal, but it will slowly grow back during the battle.
