Seltas Queen

Seltas Queen is a female Neopteron first introduced in Monster Hunter 4. She is known to inhabit temperate areas. She can be encountered at 5 Star Village Quests and HR3 Guild Quests.



Physiology
The Seltas Queen is a very large, beetle-like Neopteron with an armor-like exoskeleton covering its body. She is primarily a lustrous green color, but also features beige stripes and orange spines. She has six limbs, four of which make contact with the ground, the other two being used for digging and grasping prey. In addition, she has a long, segmented tail with a large pincer-like structure at the end. Seltas Queen is the female counterpart to Seltas, although she is physically very different.

Abilites
Seltas Queen can use her large, heavy limbs or weaponized tail to incapacitate prey.

As a female, Seltas Queen is capable of casting a pheromone to attract Seltas when in need; in her case, as often as possible.

Since she is mostly seen together with Seltas, they have many attacks where the two 'merge' together, with Seltas being on top of Seltas Queen. Both of them may perform combined attacks or even chain attack combos together.

One of the most bizarre attacks has Seltas lifting his partner and literally throwing her down in an attempt to crush the hunter. Seltas can also use his wings as a sort of "propeller", in order to give Seltas Queen a boost during her charges. Seltas Queen makes use of the Water element to hit the hunter, frequently shooting large water globs in a rapid-fire fashion.

Behaviour
Seltas Queen exhibits a strong symbiosis with her male counterpart, Seltas. As she is incapable of flight, she is always accompanied by a male that is capable of lifting her and transporting her elsewhere. She is known to be violent towards her male counterpart, and is commonly seen devouring him when in need of energy.

Habitat
Seltas Queen lives in the Ancestral Steppe, Heavenly Mountain, Primeval Forest, and Unknown Great Forest. She usually lives alongside her male counterpart, Seltas, as they can breed and provide each other with protection and transportation.
