Abilities
Oroshi Kirin is able to summon ice shards to defend itself rather than the lighting strikes employed by its standard cousin.

Notes
General Notes:
- Its hide becomes much tougher during rage mode and requires Mind's Eye to cut through it.
- Touching its ice block will cause minor damage and Iceblight status to the hunter.
- Its design appears to be partially based upon the Kirin X armour set from Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, which featured a very similar purple and blue coloration.
Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate Notes:
- In G Rank, it can summon a "cold field" at the hunter, if he/she stays for 1 second in this cold field, it inflicts Snowman status.
Monster Hunter Stories Notes:
- Oroshi Kirin is obtainable through a DLC Subquest.
