Arkveld is an Extinct Species of unknown classification first introduced in Monster Hunter Wilds.

Physiology[]

Arkveld is a large quadruped monster covered in grayish white scales, white fur and armor plating. It has ram-like horns on each side of its head, a thick armored tail, a large plated lower jaw and a mouth full of sharp teeth. Similar to Berukyurosu, Arkveld's main feature are its clawed wings which have huge armored chain-like tendrils attached to them which can extend and retract at will. Unlike in Berukyurosu, where its "chains" are made out of elongated wing fingers, Arkveld's tendrils are made of an array of interlocking scales attached to its wrists. Its wing membranes are relatively small and are also covered in white fur. Despite this, it is still capable of flight.

Behavior and Abilities[]

Much of Arkveld's ecology is apparently a mystery as most of its kind are said to be extinct, but so far Arkveld appears to be a powerful, aggressive and nomadic monster. It can be seen attacking and challenging other apex predators like Rey Dau and Uth Duna in other habitats seemingly for supremacy.

Arkveld mainly uses its flexible wing chains to whip and strike at opponents and attack them at close range, or at a distance by extending its chain tendrils.
