Oh my god! Another Nintendo Dream, this time on Astalos and Mizutsune!

Astalos
 * Astalos have been known to start eating prey when it is still alive.
 * The moment a male and female Astalos, they just go their separate ways immediately.
 * Like many reptiles and insects, Astalos are highly instinctive.

Mizutsune
 * Female Mizutsune live in large groups together with their young of both genders. When male Mizutsune are mature, they leave the group and live a solitary life.
 * Though this is rare, some female Mizutsune may follow a similar behavior to the males.
 * The status bubbles, known to be thrown by Mizutsune, actually has some materials of the they ingested food. That is the reason why those bubbles give hunters those buffs.
 * The Bubblefoam has two main uses for Mizutsune: Defense and Moisture. **Mizutsune spend most of their time on land, so they evolved away to stay moist without needing to go to bodies of water.
 * Mizutsune use the Bubblefoam for defense by laying it down around them. The fins on their body, especially face, is used for picking up vibrations given off by potential threats. They prefer to run rather than fight. To ensure a threat can't follow them easily, Mizutsune are known to bait enemies into the secretions they laid down. By baiting them into the Bubblefoam, Mizutsune can cause the threat to lose its footing and slip around, before they make a quick escape. However, if Mizutsune are protecting their young than they will stay and fight.
