User blog:BannedLagiacrus/Monster Appreciation Week: Lunastra (5th Gen)

Hello, and welcome to Monster Appreciation Week!

This week we look at the Empress of Flames, Lunastra!



Interesting Facts About Lunastra
Order: Elder Dragon - Suborder: Fire Dragon - Family: Tesukato - Species: Teostra/Lunastra


 * Lunastra is the female counterpart of Teostra.
 * Compared to Teostra, Lunastra is considered to be rarer.
 * Lunastra have been seen living in the same environments as Teostra, though no confirmation of them in some areas.
 * Unlike Teostra, Lunastra is more vulnerable to the Ice Element.
 * Like Teostra, Lunastra can freely manipulate fire. Lunastra can breathe fire from her mouth and produce a powerful heat wave.
 * Despite Teostra and her being the same species, their flames are different from one another.
 * She is sometimes called the Empress of Flame or Flame Princess Dragon.
 * On her wings are old scales that act as an explosive powder. She’ll use her wings to spread the powder at close or long range to deal heavy damage to foes. Once the powder has been spread out, she’ll snap her jaws and ignite all the powder at once. These powerful explosions can catch some foes off guard.
 * Some powerful Lunastra have found ways to use the explosive powder with some of their attacks, such as a tail whip.
 * Lunastra is capable of flight, however, most rarely ever fly in a combat situation.
 * Some Lunastra have become more skilled with their flying abilities.
 * In an old document, Wyverians have reported a Lunastra and Teostra together in the Tower, while they were building a nest. The footprints of the two were seen around their nest, but nothing else was reported about them. It wasn't until the Research Commission went to the New World that Lunastra and Teostra were officially confirmed to pair up and cooperate with each other. While together, both will protect each other from danger and will work together to eliminate a foe.
 * It is considered suicide to try to fight both of these Elder Dragons at the same time.
