What are Elder Dragons?[]

Elder Dragons (Japanese 古龍種) are a class of monsters introduced in the first generation. This class is made up of rare, elusive monsters that have lived eternally since ancient times, that are able to bring destruction to whole ecosystems.

List of Monsters in this Class[]

Kirin[]

Kirin is an elusive species of Elder Dragon. It has a divine appearance that makes it look mystical, giving it the title, Phantom Beast.
- Very few Kirin have been witnessed by people.
- Kirin have been sighted in areas, such as the Jungle, Snowy Mountains, Swamp, Tower, Tower Summit, Everwood, Battleground, Jurassic Frontier, and Arctic Ridge.
There is a way to tell if a Kirin is near. Out of nowhere, even in clear weather, thunder can be heard and the air around it becomes tense.
- A small fog can sometimes be seen when Kirin is near.
Kirin are fairly small compared to other Elder Dragons, however, they are still quite powerful. The strength of a Kirin is beyond most other large monsters, even on par with other Elder Dragons.
The ecology of Kirin is a complete mystery. The Hunter’s Guild know very little about it due to its rarity.
At a time Kirin's class was Unclassified Monster, just like Gore Magala, but Kirin was put into the Elder Dragon class after some research concluded that it shared many characteristics with the class. Though it is horse-like, Kirin has scales and foot claws like other Elder Dragons.
Kirin’s unique ability is that it can freely summon and control lightning without the need of a storm. It is able to do this with its mighty horn, however, it doesn’t need its horn to do this. Even when a Kirin’s horn is destroyed, Kirin can still summon lightning bolts.
- It is theorized that Kirin’s lightning control comes from its high metabolism.
The mane of Kirin produces electricity constantly, making it glow constantly in its environment. The amount of electricity that its mane produces beyond what Thunder Sacs can produce.
- When enraged, Kirin’s whole body begins to produce electricity. This makes the Kirin glow brighter than usual.
In one legend, an enraged Kirin destroyed a whole village with a powerful thunderstorm.
Though Kirin lacks a hard shell or a carapace, its skin is said to be quite durable. A Kirin’s skin can repel the attacks of foes quite easily, unless the attack has enough.
Like most other Elder Dragons, Kirin are highly aggressive. Though Kirin are aggressive, they can be tamed at a young age. While young, Kirin are fairly docile towards certain creatures, including some people.
- In one case, a Kirin was raised by a child using the Kirin Bolt.
The HC Kirin seen in the Mezeporta district seem to be old individuals that have stronger over the years.
Kirin are known to have a single natural predator, Rajang.
Some consider Kirin to be the weakest Elder Dragon.
Kirin Milk and Kirin Butter doesn’t come from actual Kirin. Those products were only given that name to attract people.
In the Far East, there are legends of another monster that shares the same name and abilities as Kirin.

Oroshi Kirin[]

Oroshi Kirin is a Subspecies of Kirin.
Thus far, Oroshi Kirin have only been seen in the Everwood and Tower.
Its colors are opposite to Kirin’s due to its control over cold air. Oroshi Kirin is always covered in air, even when calm. This cold air is controlled and manipulated by Oroshi Kirin’s horn, allowing it to create giant icicles to damage foes.
- Some Oroshi Kirin can even make a freezing mist that engulfs threats in snow.
- That ice on Oroshi Kirin’s tail never melts, no matter what kind of weather it is in.
Though Kirin is considered elusive, Oroshi Kirin is actually considered to be much rarer than Kirin.
In one legend, an Oroshi Kirin froze a whole town in an instant. In another legend, an Oroshi Kirin froze a whole country in a single night.
Some people view Oroshi Kirin as an “extraordinary mystery”, while others see it as an monstrosity.
- Some even view Oroshi Kirin as a “sign of royalty”.
Sometimes Kirin and Oroshi Kirin can be seen together.

Inagami[]

In ancient stories in a small village in the Bamboo Forest, the Guild found that this monster, Inagami, the Javon Dragon, had appeared in the Bamboo Forest over hundreds of years ago and coexists with the bamboo in the area. Inagami is said to have lived in harmony with others in the Bamboo Forest for those hundreds of years, even though it is a predator, along with being protector of the Bamboo Forest. In the stories, Inagami was said to have the ability to freely grow bamboo at will. These stories are the reason why Inagami is classified as an Elder Dragon and from how old it is.
Interestingly, Leila's and the Diva's village was attacked and destroyed by an Inagami.
- The reason why their village was destroyed by the Inagami was because the villagers tried to trick Inagami to grow their crops by using its strange powers. The Inagami had lived in peace with that village for hundreds and hundreds of years and didn't bother them but when they tricked it, they greatly angered Inagami. The Inagami decided to end their peace with each other by attacking and destroying the village, leaving it in ruins. After that, Inagami started to attack any trespassers that entered the Bamboo Forest. This suggest that Inagami are actually quite peaceful Elder Dragons plus suggest that Elder Dragons are more than they seem.
The Guild originally didn't know about Inagami's existence until some research teams studying the area lost contact with the Guild suddenly. Soon the Guild sent hunters to investigate the Bamboo Forest. The hunters later reported being attacked by an unknown monster species while investigating the Bamboo Forest.
Many of Inagami's body parts have evolved to fit in with the Bamboo Forest's environment such as its tail, horn, and face. The horns and tail have changed due to a long term symbiosis with the bamboo.
Inagami has remnants of wings that its species once had.
Inagami uses its tail as a lure for prey and to summon bamboo from underground. Inagami is believed to be able to do this by its tail being an enrichment for the bamboo rhizomes, making them grow very quickly, using the bamboo itself as a weapon to catch foes off guard.
Inagami is able to breath a white, sleepy substance from its mouth that can knock prey out in a single breath.
When wounded, Inagami will ooze a healing substance from its body to cover the wound and harden said injury for protection. It also will use this substance to perform certain attacks, such as forming temporary wings for gliding short distances.
From Inagami's relationship with the bamboo, it is said that the Bamboo Forest's ecosystem depends on Inagami to keep it healthy. This quite different from other known Elder Dragons.
Its claws are able to leave a deep gouge in the earth just with a single slash, causing the ground to shake.
Inagami's skin and mane has a smooth texture and large amounts of strength.
Inagami's scales have a high resistance against all sorts of attacks but combine both strength and beauty together. These scales are difficult to work with by craftsmen.
Its tendons have good elasticity. Each fiber has a lot of strength and supports Inagami as it performs its quick agile attacks.
Inagami rarely attack enemies and prey with their tail.
The bone marrow of Inagami has different materials compared to other known monsters.
Inagami's concept was a Predatory Kirin.

Zenith Inagami[]

Coming Soon!

Eruzerion[]

Eruzerion is an Elder Dragon that was recently spotted at the top of the Tower by the Mezeporta Guild.
- Some kind of accident was reported on the Tower before an investigation team was sent and discovered this unknown Elder Dragon.
The right side of its body is covered ice, while the left side is covered in fire. This monster is able to use both elements simultaneously without fear of losing control of one of them. Due to this, Eruzerion was given the title, Burning Zero Dragon (Japanese 灼零龍)
- The Hunter's Guild has never seen a monster control fire and ice in complete harmony before.
- Disufiroa may use fire and ice, but it doesn't have complete control of both elements.
- Though it controls both elements, it actually is weak to the opposite, depending on its side. Its right side is weak to the Fire Element, while its left side is weak to the Ice Element.
Eruzerion has its own element known as Burning Zero (Japanese 灼零属性), a combination between the Fire Element and Ice Element.
Eruzerion is a very dangerous Elder Dragon to fight due to it constantly using both elements to damage hunters and catch them off guard.
- Eruzerion is also said to be quite a clever Elder Dragon that combines calm with passion.
- It is rare for a hunter to return without any wounds from an Eruzerion.
It is said that Eruzerion's horns control the fire and ice it uses.
Eruzerion is said to have a second form.

Lao-Shan Lung[]

Lao-Shan Lung gets the title, Old Mountain Dragon, due to its many spikes and ridges on its back.
Lao-Shan Lung are up to 6960cm long.
By simply walking, Lao-Shan Lung can cause earthquakes and occasionally landslides that can put settlements in danger.
- This gives it the nickname, the Walking Disaster.
Lao-Shan Lung have been around since ancient times, however, a lot is still unknown about them. Due to there being very few Lao-Shan Lung left, it is hard to find and track a single one down.
- Even the Hunter’s Guild and Elder Dragon Observation Team have trouble tracking them down.
It is believed that Lao-Shan Lung actively roam around their territory due to a past incident. When an ore refinery was built in the side of a mountain, a Lao-Shan Lung caused an earthquake and destroyed the mountain housing the refinery with its bulk. When a large obstacle is in front of Lao-Shan Lung, it will destroy it in anyway possible though it sometimes takes time.
- Lao-Shan Lung will also try to destroy fortresses and large buildings in their way.
It primarily walks on all fours, but can actually stand and walk on its hindlegs for a short period of time. Lao-Shan Lung will use its tail to help support it as it stands up.
A single scale of a Lao-Shan Lung is comparable to a Flying Wyvern’s shell.
The shell of Lao-Shan Lung is formed overtime through adhering various ores, minerals, volcanic ash, and other materials, including air. This gives Lao-Shan Lung its red appearance.
- Lao-Shan Lung have been seen in a few different colors, such as green and brown.
- Its shell contains the Dragon Element, making it more destructive in power when crafted into a weapon.
To help slow down any potential Lao-Shan Lung from reaching towns, special fortresses have been built to slow them down. When a Lao-Shan Lung is approaching, a whole town could be evacuated to safety while some hunters try to repel the beast.
Even trying to repel Lao-Shan Lung can be difficult for hunters. A single swipe of a Lao-Shan Lung’s tail can knockout a hunter, but a stomp can push hunters back from the wind pressure.
When Lao-Shan Lung is on the move, it is believed to be running away from something. Secretly, the Hunter’s Guild believe that Lao-Shan Lung are running away from Fatalis.
- There is also belief that Lao-Shan Lung could be running away from other giant monsters.
Lao-Shan Lung have been seen wandering around in places like the Volcano and Old Jungle.
- A few Lao-Shan Lung have even been seen frozen in the Polar Sea.
- A skull of Lao-Shan Lung was discovered inside a mining refinery at Jumbo Village.
Originally, Lao-Shan Lung was considered the largest known monster, but it has been dwarfed by other larger monsters like Jhen Mohran.
The claw of a Lao-Shan Lung is half the length of a human.
His Immenseness is known to occasionally wrestle Lao-Shan Lung for fun.
Back in the development times for Monster Hunter, the development team wanted to add a lot of variety when climbing onto Lao-Shan Lung's back, such as gathering, mining, etc. Due to time constraints, they weren't able to add much to Lao-Shan Lung in the first game and hunters could only carve its back. However, they mentioned something quite interesting: "Maybe we could that do around MH5." (Japanese MH5 ぐらいなら出来るのかも)

Ashen Lao-Shan Lung[]

Ashen Lao-Shan Lung is the same species as Lao-Shan Lung. It is actually a Lao-Shan Lung that has been living in volcanic environments.
- Depending on the environment, a Lao-Shan Lung’s look can vary from place to place.
Unlike Lao-Shan Lung, it is given the title, Rock Mountain Dragon, from its harsher look.
It has been reported that weapons belonging to the Ancient Civilization can be found on Ashen Lao-Shan Lung’s body.
- This suggest that these Lao-Shan Lung have been around for a long time.

Zorah Magdaros[]

Zorah Magdaros is a giant Elder Dragon with an outer shell similar to volcanic rock.
Every ten years, Zorah Magdaros travels through the sea in order to get to the New World. Why it does this is a mystery. The Research Commission have been sent in to unravel this mystery. During the fifth dispatch, hunters follow Zorah Magdaros by riding on a ship.

Keoaruboru[]

Keoaruboru is a giant Elder Dragon that has attacked the Interceptor's Base a few times.
- It seems this monster is the primary reason why the base even built.
Keoaruboru is larger than most other Elder Dragons. It is even considered an Ultra-Class Elder Dragon (Japanese 超弩級古龍).
This Elder Dragon is said to be able to bring unimaginable destruction in near seconds.
- It is said that it can destroy the Interceptor's Base with a single attack.
Its tail and arms slowly build up heat, while it is fought. If left to heat up completely, that part of Keoaruboru will unleash a powerful fiery blast that leaves behind mass destruction.
- In order to slow this process down, hunters must attack those parts of Keoaruboru's body.
- If left unchecked, it can easily destroy the base with said part.
Keoaruboru has three phases: Normal, Scorching, and Overheating.
- It is unknown how destructive its last phase is.
It appears in its own special Interception Quest.
The Diva has actually seen this monster before.
- It is suggested that Keoaruboru has a connection to Inagami.

Yama Kurai[]

Yama Kurai is a giant found in the Highland, though it is unknown where it was in the Highland and why suddenly it has appeared.
There is no documents or archives on this thing, even from ancient times. No documents even mentioned sightings of them so it is likely it may appear in other habitats.
- There is a theory that Yama Kurai could've been confused with Yama Tsukami due to different Yama Tsukami being seen before.
- The Elder Dragon Observation Teams have encountered and found Yama Tsukami in Fonron that vary in size and color. Their theories are that they are either adults and juveniles, subspecies, or environmental conditions. Most of the teams agree that is due to environmental conditions that there is many different Yama Tsukami.
Yama Kurai is called one of the few ancient, origin monsters untouched by time. From this the Guild plan on investigating this species immediately.
Yama Kurai has plants and even trees covering its body, making it a sort of living forest. These plants and trees don't exist in any known areas. The plants are able to grow on Yama Kurai through the blood it produces, which are rich with nutrients.
While fighting, some of the plants on its body will fall off for some attacks but regrow on the ground extremely quick due to how rich nutrients are. This nutrients even rapidly grows some plants in environments sort of like Inagami.
Despite being similar to Yama Tsukami, Yama Kurai has one major difference from Yama Tsukami. Yama Kurai is able to produce substance that contains different types of poisons. It is theorized that Yama Kurai might have gotten the poisons from constant feeding after many, many years animals and plants.
- It seems the gold eyes and gold teeth might be partly due to the poisons.
Like Yama Tsukami, it has special Great Thunderbugs living inside its body.
It is said that Yama Kurai can actually walk on the ground using its limbs.
It isn't said whether Yama Kurai is the ancestor of Yama Tsukami or not though it too is called the Oldest Elder Dragon. So there is a chance that Yama Kurai could be an older Yama Tsukami.
Its skin is stretchy.
Strangely, it has thick hair on its body that can faintly be seen.
The gold teeth get their color from both dirt and digestive juices inside Yama Kurai, damaging the teeth. From the teeth's size, they don't dissolve.
- Some Yama Kurai have shiny gold teeth that glow like light.
Yama Kurai's blood is rich with nutrients. It is said that drinking this blood grants immortality.
On Yama Kurai's body are seeds. These seeds grew into trees rapidly with just a single powerful shock or hit. From this, it is very difficult to use them for materials.
Its tripe is where the Thunderbugs are raised up and where its poison is contained. The gastric juices inside of it are very powerful.

Yama Tsukami[]

Yama Tsukami is said to have an endless life and to be the Oldest Elder Dragon.
Yama Tsukami has many titles such as the Floating Mountain, Oldest Elder Dragon, and Roaming Dragon.
Covering nearly its whole is many different plants such as trees and moss. This Dragon Moss has a mysterious beautiful shine. Its mysterious effects can raise the quality of even high quality goods and has mysterious properties. The Dragon Wood is a parasitic plant with a mysterious air coming from it.
Yama Tsukami's hide can be made into textile with processing.
Fillet of a Yama Tsukami tentacle is slimy and light.
Fluid extracted from a Yama Tsukami is black and sticky. This blood is the nutrients for the many plants growing Yama Tsukami.
The Yama Tsukami has a giant mouth at the front of its body which it uses to swallow whole forests and lakes in one gulp by sucking up large amounts of air. It will also suck up animals and other living things as it sucks up the forest and lakes. This means that Yama Tsukami is an omnivore. Sometimes as it eats whole forests and lakes, Yama Tsukami will also suck up or eat Great Thunderbugs that are caught in its mouth. From the Yama Tsukami pretty much being a special environment for them, they become quite different from the normal Great Thunderbugs and develop differently compared to them.
- Some villages and towns in a forest area is at risk at becoming another meal for Yama Tsukami.
The large amount of dirt and rotting flesh decomposing inside its body creates as gas, allowing the Yama Tsukami to float through the air without wings. It is able to control the amount of gas it uses and able to use it as a rudder as it floats in the air. It can even use the gas as a weapon and as a defensive shield. Despite being able to control it, Yama Tsukami can be knocked out the air if enough damage is done to it and even by crashing into the ground randomly.
Yama Tsukami is constantly traveling through different areas in order to find suitable fertile land for it to feed on, even traveling over the sea. Yama Tsukami have been seen in the Great Forest, Jungle, Tower, Town, Mezeporta, and Forest n Hill.
- It is believed that the winds in environments can send Yama Tsukami unintentionally into some areas so it might not intentionally be heading to attack towns.
Yama Tsukami sightings are extremely low, making many people think it doesn't exist.
The Elder Dragon Observation Teams have encountered and found Yama Tsukami in Fonron that vary in size and color. Their theories are that they are either adults and juveniles, subspecies, or environmental conditions. Most of the teams agree that is due to environmental conditions that there is many different Yama Tsukami.

Nakarkos[]

Nakarkos is a rarely seen Elder Dragon that is able to make a lair out of the bones and corpses of its prey. These lairs are known as Wyvern Ends.
- These graveyards can be about as big as a mountain.
- This lair is usually built in a large cave.
The large cave within the Jurassic Frontier, where the Wyvern End is, has a large body of water. This large body of water comes from the expansive sea that the cave is connected to.
- This explains how Nakarkos got to the Jurassic Frontier and how it got certain parts from monsters not found in the area.
- The cave's networks also seem to go to other parts of the Jurassic Frontier.
Nakarkos maybe rare, but they have been reported in a number of environments in the past.
From Nakarkos using the bones and corpses of its prey, it gets the title, Corpse Dragon.
- It is also sometimes called the Bewitching Spirit of the Abyss.
It is able produce a special mucus that is used for capturing prey. This mucus is like glue, sticking down prey. Once its prey is covered in mucus, it uses its tentacles to drag them back to its lair before feeding on its prey.
Though this mucus is used for capturing prey, Nakarkos has another use for the mucus. This mucus is used to help prevent bones from corroding, stick bones together, and to prevent the bones from collapsing. With this mucus, it can make a protective bone armor to protect itself from attacks and even use some bones as weapons.
- This mucus is known to have a eerie blue glow.
Due to Nakarkos having huge appetites, they can easily wipe out all life in a surrounding area. This affects those ecosystems greatly on a destructive level, making it harder for species to thrive in said areas.
- Nakarkos have even shot down some airships due to them mistaken the airships for food. This suggest that some flying species aren't safe from this Elder Dragon.
- Some of the monsters that have been identified to have been eaten by a Nakarkos include Uragaan, Lagiacrus, Glavenus, Brachydios, Agnaktor, and Rathalos.
Recently, one Nakarkos was spotted in the Jurassic Frontier and it already wiped out a large portion of an area. When its Wyvern End was discovered, the Hunter's Guild immediately sent hunters to repel it before it could bring further damage to that ecosystem.
- It is said that it eventually returned in an attempt to feed itself.
Nakarkos has been seen using various monster parts to attack foes or to kill prey. Some parts that it has been seen using is a Glavenus's skull combined with its tail blade, a Lagiacrus's shell shockers, a Brachydios's pounders, and a Uragaan's chin.
- It is hard to identify some of these parts due to Nakarkos altering their shapes in order for it to use them.
Like many other Elder Dragons, Nakarkos has the Dragon Element in a certain portion of its body though it can barely control the element. So to make it easier for itself to use the Dragon Element, it will fire the element from its tentacles and build it up in its mouth before firing a massive beam. This attack is actually very risky for Nakarkos, even greatly damaging it in battle.
- Sometimes this is how it is repelled by hunters.
If damaged greatly in battle, it will eventually reveal its true face in order to attack with its mouth and to better the use the Dragon Element.
Nakarkos is said to be intelligent.
The hard shell is used as armor though its large size is one of nature's mysteries.
- With enough mucus covering it, the shell will harden.
The skull, covering Nakarkos, is just terrifying to look at. It has a evil aura surrounding it too.
- This skull belongs to an unidentified giant monster.
The vertebra, covering its back, has a disturbing sound that terrifies most. Despite the size, it is light.
Its skin is a beautiful blue and stretchy.
Nakarkos's arms are sticky and hard. While covered in bone, they resemble a mouth.
Similar to a cuttlefish, Nakarkos has a cuttlebone.
Its mouth has many thorn-like teeth in it. This mouth is able to chew through a wyvern's bones easily.
A gem contains traces of all of the monsters Nakarkos has previously eaten.
Interestingly, a Guild Master in the 2nd Generation mentioned a graveyard filled with bones of monsters in a older game.
When Nakarkos was being created, there initial draft was a Zombie Dragon (Japanese ドラゴンゾンビ).
Like Yama Tsukami, Nakarkos was put into the Elder Dragon class because it doesn't exactly fit into any other ones.
Nakarkos maybe a powerful predator, however, in the sea it has to worry about its own predator. This monster's only known predators are Ceadeus. Nakarkos do feed on Ceadeus pups though.
To move quickly, Nakarkos has jet propulsion like squids. It uses this to return to its Wyvern’s End at a quicker rate, so it can avoid getting eaten itself.
Nakarkos’s Japanese name, Osutogaroa, Name Origin: Oyster (Japanese 牡蠣) + Tangaroa (Japanese タンガロア)
Though Nakarkos can destroy an ecosystem, it doesn't actually want to do that. It prefers to leave its nest in search of prey so, it still has plenty of food at the environment it is living within.

Tartaronis[]

Its title, Swallowing Abyss Dragon, comes from it eating all species that it passes.
- It seemingly has a bottomless appetite.
Tartaronis noticeably resembles a sea turtle and uses its flippers to swim through the sand.
The spines on its back are used for deflecting attacks, however, they can also be shot as weapons from a distance away while cutting up prey at close range.
According to researchers, it is able to fly by controlling hot air. This makes Tartaronis's ecology quite complex and hard to understand for researchers.
It always appears with a sand storm, or some other natural disaster, in the Moonlands.
It relies on its flippers to produce tornadoes, as it flies in the air.
Residents in the desert see Tartaronis as the Embodiment of the Desert, a God, and as a Demon of the Desert. It's feared that Tartaronis will eventually swallow the whole Moonland and everything it encounters there in that desert.
- It was even called the Dead Sea Demon.
Tartaronis is one of twelve of new species put on the dangerous monster list.

Infernal Tartaronis[]

Infernal Tartaronis is a subspecies of Tartaronis that lives in the harsh volcanic environments.
- It is believed that it shares a common ancestor with Tartaronis.
Scholars believe that Infernal Tartaronis can cause constant volcanic eruptions easily. They also believe that a whole group of these Elder Dragons destroyed an ancient utopia by causing multiple volcanic eruptions for months.
- Scholars are still arguing whether a group of Infernal Tartaronis actually destroyed the utopia or not.
Whenever Infernal Tartaronis appears in the volcano, firefly-like creatures will emerge as well. These insects need hydrogen sulfide in order to survive and are usually quite calm when there isn’t any volcanic activity. However, once Infernal Tartaronis appears the insects will become active and swarm the volcano, as well as attack all creatures within the region.
It can release fire from openings on its side.
By using a combination of fire and a special dust, Infernal Tartaronis is able to produce a barrier of heat, similar to Teostra, for defense.
- It can even produce this heat wave while flying.

Ceadeus[]

Ceadeus and Jhen Mohran are theorized to have the same ancestor. Ceadeus is also said to have lived in the Great Desert in ancient times.
- The Great Desert was still a huge sea in ancient times.
Ceadeus's family were at first powerful land dwellers before they later evolved for life in the deep sea. Some of their body parts evolved into fins to fit with this new lifestyle, while others completely degenerated.
Its total length is 5837.2cm, while Lao-Shan Lung is 6960cm. Its size is the true reason why it’s feared.
A Ceadeus can cause earthquakes just by rubbing its horn against rocks on the sea floor. It also causes tsunamis occasionally from the earthquakes, which reportedly destroyed an island.
Ceadeus is sometimes described as a moon. This is from the fact its pure white and looks like a huge moon in the sea at night.
Its unknown why its luminous organs glow blue and why they turn red when in Rage Mode, though the luminous bacteria on its body reacts to it by reflecting the light.
Ceadeus hide is remarkably solid. Its fur is hard to forge.
Ceadeus has a special relationship with an algae, which is the reason why it has its beard. It farms for the algae with its beard and uses the glow from the luminous bacteria as a form of photosynthesis. With this algae, Ceadeus can spend longer times underwater without having to come up for air. When it needs air, it will swim up with a burst of speed and jump out of the water for a breath like in its first intro. Its estimated a Ceadeus can hold its breath for about several months.
The Ceadeus has been known in legends in a few different areas but the Guild didn't consider them as confirmation of the monster.
The Ceadeus that caused the earthquakes in Moga was trying to wear down its horn.
Ceadeus will face off against a threat by biting them and using its body as a weapon. If that fails, it will inhale large amounts of water before firing a powerful beam from its mouth.

Goldbeard Ceadeus[]

Goldbeard Ceadeus was thought to never have existed until recently.
- Goldbeard Ceadeus are officially confirmed to be Ceadeus individual that have lived for a long time.
Its color is said to be caused by the luminous bacteria, making Goldbeard Ceadeus glow a gold color. From it being extremely bright, it is said that it lives in deeper waters. Its eyes are covered by its huge horns now.
Goldbeard Ceadeus is a lot more aggressive than a normal Ceadeus due to not being able to see very well.
Very few Goldbeard Ceadeus have been witnessed by Hunter's Guild, but they seem to be rarer than normal Ceadeus.
Goldbeard Ceadeus are said to never have to come up for air do to them getting larger amounts of algae.
A Ceadeus Tail symbolizes peace.
Crooked Horns on Ceadeus suggest they are very old monsters and can be found through out history while Crooked Hardhorns have extraordinary power and could be older than time.
Goldbeard Fur is more like spines than fur.

Jhen Mohran[]

When a sandstorm is in Loc Lac City, that means Jhen Mohran is coming! This begins an old festival that has become a tradition, Jhen Mohran Hunting (Japanese 峯山龍狩り). The Loc Lac district of the Hunter's Guild will recruit hunters from all over the New World in order to participate in the great Jhen Mohran hunt, but only high ranking hunters can attempt this special quest.
- Occasionally, seasonal winds will catch sand that Jhen Mohran is swimming through and expelling in the direction of settlements, causing massive sandstorms.
- Jhen Mohran is viewed as a Symbol of Courage and Prosperity in Loc Lac City due to the various types of ore people can get off it. All of this ore can easily make a hunter or a civilian rich.
- If hunters fail to slow down, damage, or slay Jhen Mohran than it'll destroy all of Loc Lac City fairly easily.
- Similar to Laviente, five hunters or more are allowed to hunt Jhen Mohran together due to it being a bigger threat compared to other monsters. Some hunters ride on the smaller sand boats and provide support to the main sand ship. The largest group of hunters seen on one these hunts so far is eleven.
- Every year, a people that participate in this special event are seriously injured or even killed by Jhen Mohran.
Jhen Mohran is one of the largest monsters known to the Hunter's Guild. Jhen Mohran have been measured at 11161.9cm, only about twenty percent of that is their tusks.
It gets the title, Crest Mountain Dragon, due to its long dorsal fin resembling a mountain range.
From a distance, Jhen Mohran looks brown in color due to the sand on its body. Without any sand on its body, Jhen Mohran's true color is actually a vibrant blue.
Its body is streamlined and equipped with immensely powerful limbs, which allows it to travel through the sand at great speeds. It uses the front limbs and tusks to push aside sand.
- Its front limbs aren't covered heavily in ore or other minerals due to it needing them in order to push aside sand.
Jhen Mohran has powerful lungs that helps it hold its breath for long periods of time. Some older Jhen Mohran can even use their lungs to fire a destructive beam of sand at foes.
Despite Jhen Mohran's size, it is able to defend itself surprisingly well. It'll use its tusks to attacks, slam down on foes with its weight, or even fire a powerful beam of sand at foes.
Jhen Mohran feeds very much like a whale. It swallows large amounts of sand to filter in any type of nutrients found within the sands. Though Jhen Mohran feeds on the nutrients found within the sand, it will expel the unnecessary materials outside of its body with the help of multiple blowholes.
By spending a long period in the sand, ore has formed on its body that has been polished by the sands.
People are able to find Jhen Mohran by looking for large packs of Delex.
- The Delex following Jhen Mohran due to them wanting to feed on left overs from Jhen Mohran's previous meal.
Jhen Mohran evolved from an aquatic ancestor that once ruled the Great Desert in ancient times.
- In ancient times, the Great Desert was actually a giant sea.

Hallowed Jhen Mohran[]

Hallowed Jhen Mohran is a subspecies of Jhen Mohran.
Compared to a normal Jhen Mohran, Hallowed Jhen Mohran has larger lungs. Early on in the day, Jhen Mohran breaths in air before diving back into the sands, while Hallowed Jhen Mohran comes up for air in the evening or at night.
- Strangely, Hallowed Jhen Mohran is attracted to a full moon for unknown reasons.
Hallowed Jhen Mohran is a deep violet color due to it living deeper underground in the sand, where certain minerals have combined with its body fluids.

Dah'ren Mohran[]

Dah'ren Mohran is a close relative of Jhen Mohran.
Dah'ren Mohran has the same ecology as Jhen Mohran, however, there are some differences between the two species. The main two differences Dah'ren Mohran is known for is its aggression and its single horn.
Just like Jhen Mohran, its horn is used for destroying objects that are in its way while it’s swimming in the sand. It also uses the horn like a drill as it twists its body in a spiral-like motion as it digs into the sand.
- These horns are used by humans for excavation.
- Over many years, these horns will have has hardened magnificently with age and eventually can pierce through anything.
From swimming in the sand for long periods of time, all sorts of minerals and ore have formed on its body, making its scales rusty and giving it that reddish color. The sand has polished the rusty scales and the sand has given the scales a unique texture.
- Its rare to find scales that are smooth and that glow crimson like the sunset.
Unlike Jhen Mohran, Dah'ren Mohran can shoot large clumps of sand mixed with other minerals from their back as projectiles. These huge projectiles can block a predator's path and can prevent the equipment on some ships from being used.
Unlike Jhen Mohran, Dah'ren Mohran is actively aggressive will actually try to attempt to kill a predator or destroy a whole town when put in danger in attempt to make the threat stop their attack.
It is believed by the Guild that Dah'ren Mohran might be smarter than Jhen Mohran.
A Dah'ren Mohrans shell is like a layer of bedrock.
The carapace is an impossibly hard shell that makes vast mountains look like so much sponge.
The rockskin is a massive carapace with overwhelming, and perhaps otherworldly, presence.
The brace of a Dah'ren Mohran is the strong foreleg armor made to support great weight, usually dusted entrancingly with sand. In some rare occasions when soaked in water, the thick, layered foreleg plating gains strength from the water.

Dalamadur[]

Its two arms are used to support it while climbing and digging and its feet are gone to help it climb the vast mountains freely.
Its claws are very powerful and with one swing kill anything in its way. The claws can also can destroy the land and even cause rocks of old mountains to collapse.
Dalamadur is able to destroy whole mountains and valleys. Its also believed that the damage it causes could affect the whole world.
Dalamadur seems to use the blade-like scales to help it climb and dig and, are sometimes described as a Thousand Blades.
Dalamadur's hide is extremely hard and sometimes compared to steel.
Its tail is used like a whip and just by slamming it, it can cause an earthquake.
Dalamadur is believed to be the creator of the Heaven's Mount from its digging and climbing on the mountains. The legend suggest that there is more than one Dalamadur and that the area became unstable from them. Its also unlikely that the area formed naturally over years and their is damage in the mountains that seemed to have only been caused by Dalamadur.
- It turns out the Dalamadur was actually ripping through the mountains due to its old skin irritating it sometime before it could actually shed into its new skin. So Dalamadur unintentionally makes more habitats and homes for monsters that live in the mountains of the Siki Country.
- Some reports suggest that Dalamadur can be found in the Forest and Hills as well.
Dalamadur controls an unknown element that doesn't match any known other elements.
The meteors it summon seems to be falling stars and they rain down when Dalamadur roars or does other things. These stars have the same energy as Dalamadur's Chest.
Some type of energy is in its chest that produces a strange light and white particles. Its unknown what it is but its super hot.
It has special bones that twist with immeasurable power. They are believed to help Dalamadur support itself.
Dalamadur measures up to 44039.7cm.
From digging in Speartip Crag, Dalamadur have caused some hot springs to open up in some parts of the mountain.
Dalamadur etymology: Dara(ダラ) = Tower(塔) - Amadyura(アマデュラ) = Armor(鎧)
- This comes from an old Babylonian language.

Shah Dalamadur[]

Dalamadur and Shah Dalamadur are confirmed to be the same species.
Shah Dalamadur are a Dalamadur after molting.
Shah Dalamadur have no control over their metabolism, meaning their body temperature is constantly changing. When parts on their body are hot their skin for that part is noticeably soft, allowing most weapons to pierce through easily. This also allows Shah Dalamadur to greatly heat the environment with certain parts alone.
- In a sense, Shah Dalamadur are in a defenseless state shortly after molting, which makes them more aggressive towards just about anything.
- Dalamadur can control their metabolism. while Shah Dalamadur can't really control their metabolism.
The Shah Dalamadur is The Immortal, Immortal Singing Emperor.
Its claws are burning hot to the touch and quite comparable to a star.
Its Fan Blades are extremely hard. Can't be broken or even scarred easily.
Its Thousand Blade Scales are hot and burn the mountain with each scale put into the mountain.
The Shah Dalamadur's tail rips the air and sky with fire. It gouges the land with its immense strength, shaking the earth in fire.
Its eyes are a flickering light and stare in anger.

Amatsu[]

Amatsu is said to be an Elder Dragon of Great Evil and said to be The God of the Heavens.
Before it was discovered by the Guild, it was a well-known presences throughout Yukumo's Regions history and a lot of storms that have caused destruction in Yukumo was due to Amatsu. Some of this destruction was floods, landslides, and a few others. Whole villages and areas are forced to leave the area, when it appears from this and even monsters are forced to move in some other areas when it appears.
It flies by catching wind from the storms and all those fins on its body help it fly catch wind and air, allowing it to fly. To help it swim through the air with ease, its backbone is much like that of Leviathans. From wind constantly flowing from its fins, it produces that barrier of wind that it can change at will and use in many ways.
Unlike other Elder Dragons, even if certain parts are broken on its body it doesn't lose control of the weather and even being poisoned doesn't decrease its power.
Its title, Storm Dragon, was given to it from it being able to freely make storms.
- A special jade organ allows it to make storms and its storm control supposedly surpasses Kushala Daora's storms.
They are highly territorial and will attack anything that enters their territory. While claiming territories, they will clear out all other monsters in the area along with Airships.
It has an organ that stores large amounts of water, allowing it to breath its powerful beams.
It goes into its Final Rage Mode, when it feels it’s about to die. The storm becomes larger and more violent due to this as well.
The small claws that Amatsu has suggest that its ancestors had legs and claws at a time.
Its tail helps it swim in the storms and the sky.
On the snout of Amatsu is a pyrolite crystal for hydrogen ignition. Combined with concentrated hydrogen vapor, at first glance, the movement makes it look like water will come out, and then... it sneezes. Amatsu spits out a large volume of hydrogen, ignition with the pyrolite, and large amounts of water.

Shantien[]

Shantien flies above the sky far beyond any other monsters. From this, it was only considered to be a legend and said to not even be real until one attacked the Mezeporta.
Their true habitat and diet is unknown, but it could be guessed they are carnivores and truly live in the sky, only occasionally landing in some areas. Some have been reported flying above the Great Forest Peaks and sea.
Shantien is feared as an Elder Dragon of Mystery in the Skies while they were looking for new areas to explore.
Similar to Amatsu and Ceadeus, it to is very Leviathan-like but unlike them its still able to walk on land and even move much like a Leviathan.
When its wings are bloated, its able to fly and make storms. Though its wings may become bloated, Shantien’s true ability to fly comes from the hairs on its body. Shantien produces a mass of compressed air that lifts up the Shantien and releases the particles, allowing for high-speed flying. These particles can make Shantien glitter in the sky, allowing it to become airborne.
Like Amatsu, it to is very aggressive and will attack any monster or ship in its territory in the sky. When it doesn't see the threat as much of challenge it won't do much of anything, but when it goes dangerous it will begin to use more air-based abilities along with attack water and lightning.
It was first known for only controlling two elements, Water + Thunder, but it later turned out to use the environment to its advantage and use the Fire Element from the Volcanic Area as its own weapon. Its powers with fire are very weak and not very powerful, unless combined with some of its other attacks. It also gets hot air while in the Volcano from lava.
- Shantien actually also has a weak Fire Sac.
When angered enough, hunters can see its veins turn blue flow with the particles along with a change in environment. In certain environments, its scales and shell are prone to changing color like its color in the Volcano.
The Guild don't let many hunters use the Large Exploration Ship due to how dangerous it is to hunt Shantien.
It was recently discovered that Shantien has a major weakness to loud sounds.
When enough damage is done to Shantien, it can possibly kill itself by trying to do one of its electrical attacks and from it discharging inside its body.
Their scales and shells are fireproof and waterproof.
The claws of them are hard but can break easily.
It’s believed that Shantien's horns help it fly the sky and control wind.
The crystals on Shantien are said to be the source of its powers.
Shantien has only one known enemy, Disifiroa. It is said it and this Elder Dragon were fighting each other in the middle of the Great Dragon War.

Chameleos[]

Like many Elder Dragons, Chameleos appears in some legends.
Compared to other Elder Dragons, Chameleos are said to have quite a calm personality.
Despite not being seen very much, Chameleos are relatively known among the public.
Chameleos like areas with lots of humidity. So Chameleos are primarily found living in swamps, jungles, and some forests.
In theory, the leaf-like tail is used to fool predators into thinking it is its head.
The Elder Dragon Observation Team has not been able to truly study this Elder Dragon.
The most well-known feature about Chameleos is its ability to turn nearly invisible. By generating a weak electric current in its skin that interacts with the mist it can breathe, the elder dragon can bend light around itself, rendering it effectively invisible. But this isn't the only way they camouflage that well. Turns out, each species of Chameleos has a different way of camouflaging, rendering itself nearly invisible.
- Their camouflage is so great, that Chameleos will even mimic tiny things in the background like rain or even flies to try fit in perfectly in the area invisible.
In order to render a Chameleos visible, it is suggested to try to cut its tail or break the horn on its head.
Some Chameleos species don't attack immediately but, instead use stealth. Other Chameleos species are known to be fairly aggressive.
- The 4th Generation Chameleos is confirmed to be a Subspecies.
Chameleos have huge appetites. They will wipe their tongues around to catch prey or anything that seems edible to them.
- Due to this huge appetite, it can be troublesome to either research or hunt one down. When teams were attempting to study Chameleos, it stole all their food, medicines, and chemicals, though no teams were harmed in anyway.
- Chameleos are also known for their habit of stealing items. They do this so potential threats can get out of their territory.
Depending on a Chameleos's diet, their poisons vary from region to region.
Its finehide has a strange texture that calms the soul with a single touch.
Its horn refracts light.
The tail's unique texture makes for excellent material.
A gem from Chameleos has a multitude of colors.

Kushala Daora[]

Kushala Daora is called the Steel Dragon due to its scales and shell being made of metal.
Due to its shell oxidizing in the air, Kushala Daora has a blackish-silver colored body with bits of white.
The metal shell of Kushala Daora is actually connected to its bones. This allows Kushala Daora to freely move around at great speeds, even with this metal shell.
The wings of Kushala Daora are the largest part on this monster’s body. These wings are said to be larger than the wings of most Flying Wyverns.
Kushala Daora can be found living in deserts, tropical environments, snowy environments, and even the Tower.

- It is believed an organ in its body is able to produce this barrier.
- Poison can also temporary make its winds less powerful.
Kushala Daora mainly use their claws and tail to fight off foes. From its tough steel skin, each attack can deal a lot of damage to foes.

- The claws are cladded in cold air.
The most well-known ability of Kushala Daora is its ability to breath wind. The wind is strong enough to destroy some structures in a single blast. Kushala Daora can even breath giant tornadoes down on the ground.
There are up to several different species of Kushala Daora known thus far.
- These Kushala Daora are considered to be subspecies of each other and are said to look different. Each of these Kushala Daora species behave differently from each other.
The HC Kushala Daora is an older Kushala Daora that had recently molted.
Some Kushala Daora have found ways to get rid of any toxins that may have entered their body.
Rarely, Kushala Daora can be seen eating ore in the Jungle or even drinking water at the desert.

Rusted Kushala Daora[]

Rusted Kushala Daora is a Kushala Daora that is close to molting.
Due to gradual oxidation, the steel skin of Kushala Daora has rusted. When Kushala Daora grows enough, it’ll shed its skin so it can start the slow process over again.
- Due to rusting, Rusted Kushala Daora sounds different from normal Kushala Daora.
- The skin of Rusted Kushala Daora is also much harder.
Rusted Kushala Daora are super aggressive compared normal Kushala Daora. The reason why is because, they’re close to molting. After molting, a Kushala Daora’s hide is weak to just about any attack until oxidation further takes over. When Rusted Kushala Daora are about to molt, they are known to look for remote areas, so they can’t easily be attacked by potential predators or hunters.
- Usually, Rusted Kushala Daora are known to molt in frigid environments, but some have been seen to molt near or even in towns.
Rusted Kushala Daora are known to clear areas of native species in order to make a land as remote as possible, in order to molt, if they can’t find a proper place.
Each of the several known Kushala Daora species are known to shed at different times.
Some older Rusted Kushala Daora are known to even use their rusty skin as a weapon.

Garuba Daora[]

Garuba Daora was told about in the same legends as Shantien and was said to be living high in the skies.
Its body shape and its appearance is similar to Kushala Daora, but its golden color is said to be an adaption to a different environment. It is a Kushala Daora species who has adapted to a different environment.
- It’s actually a different breed of Kushala Daora.
Its golden color and crystals are from it feeding on special ores and river stones. From constantly feeding on the ores, it has developed crystals on certain parts of its body.
- These ores come from rivers and other bodies of water found in its environment, which is unknown.
- Its gold color has helped it adapt to its different environment.
Unlike Kushala Daora, it can't make storms and is usually seen in clear skies without a cloud in sight.
The Guild Master was the one who actually spotted it, while on the Large Exploration Ship and it is requested by the Guild Master to hunt it down. From Shantien being found in those skies and attacking multiple ships, her trip was delayed for a little while from the skies being dangerous. When she was finally transported on the ship to Mezeporta, she wasn't attacked by Shantien but she saw another Elder Dragon of legends, Garuba Daora, confirming its existence. Thankfully, Garuba Daora didn't see the ship while she was on it are it might've and would have attacked it.
Like Kushala Daora, it uses a different element known as Wind, but the gold dust around it make it different. Its attacks are said to be both cold and electrical.
With many of its attacks, it combines them with a golden dust found around itself and also uses this dust to manipulate the crystals as another means of attacking.
- The golden dust, according to some eyewitnesses, makes it harder to see it and this is the reason why it hasn't been confirmed to be really known.
Shantien is said to be highly territorial and protect its territory in the skies but from what was the big question. It seems that Garuba Daora might be that what.
- The only problem is that it is unknown where Garuba Daora is found and it’s said that Shantien lives in completely different areas from Garuba Daora.
Garuba Daora's shell was originally silver, but changed to a golden color after some years from the gold dust found in the water it drinks.
Their quartz on the head, claws, tail, and wings have formed on them due to their diet.
- They are very transparent and they can release a large amount of light around the Garuba Daora that can potentially destroy or heavily burn the area around them.
The tail has adapted to changes in Garuba Daora's environment in order to help support it in its environment.

Lunastra[]

Lunastra is the female counterpart of Teostra.
She was discovered shortly after Teostra was discovered.
A Lunastra’s head is described to have moon-shaped horns. These horns symbolize an elegant bravery.
Unlike Teostra, Lunstra is more vulnerable to the Ice Element.
Like Teostra, Lunastra can freely manipulate fire. Lunastra can breath fire from her mouth and produce a powerful heat wave.
- She is sometimes called the Empress of Flame or Flame Princess Dragon.
On her wings are old scales that act as 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 can fly, however, most rarely use it in a combat situation.
- Some Lunastra have become more skilled with their flying abilities.
In some documents, Wyverians reported a Lunastra and Teostra being together while building a nest in the Tower. The footprints of the two were seen around their nest.
- It is considered suicide to try to fight both of these Elder Dragons at the same time.
Lunastra are rare to see in the wild, while Teostra are far more common. The highest chance a hunter has of seeing a Lunastra is at the craters of volcanoes or at the Tower’s ruins.

Teostra[]

Teostra is the male counterpart of Lunastra.
Just like Lunastra, his explosive powder is his old skin.
Teostra have been found living in swamps, deserts, volcanoes, and even close to some settlements.
- In a single night, a Teostra scorched a whole desert, wiping out most life in it.
Teostra vary from region to region. Each Teostra has a different behavior from another individual.
- Some extremely rare individuals have more control over their flaming abilties than most. They have a different appearance including yellowish wing webbing, a more reddish mane, red claws, an orange tail tip, and golden eyes. These new flame techniques, include leaving pockets of explosive powder across the area in the air as it fights and setting them all at once at will, all its flame thrower attacks are a full length even longer than any normal Teostra's flame length, making explosions as it charges and a line of explosions bellow it as it jumps, a more powerful flame shield and making explosions around its body as it jumps around.
- Some even more extremely rare individuals around the Tower are even more advanced and unusual, with even more strength and flame abilities. Their appearance is also unique such as its tail, wings, horns and feet have a flaming red magma pattern, its ears are more pale and it has flaming orange eyes. Its abilities include all of those above from previous Teostra variants and new techniques including burning fire lasting for only a few moments after a power explosion, standing on its hind legs and creating large flames around its body as it stands on its hind legs, and a ultimate ability above any other Teostra the ability to spit what appears to be a burning spark as it hits the ground this spark explodes into a flaming tornado much larger than the creature itself, it will then fly into this tornado and burst from within scattering flames all around it as the red magma like patterns on its body catch on fire. During this state all its flame control abilities become improved and more powerful to the point were if it uses its flame thrower during flight it will burn and cause explosions ahead of the flame hitting the ground.
Teostra are one of the most aggressive and dangerous Elder Dragons known to the Hunter's Guild.
Unlike Lunastra, Teostra hate flying. They rarely ever try to fly in the air, unless they really need to or want to.
- At one point, researchers thought that Teostra had lost the ability to fly due to this.
- Some researchers believe that Teostra and Lunastra will eventually lose their wings as they further evolve.
Unlike Lunastra, Teostra is more vulnerable to the Water Element.
Like Lunastra, Teostra can freely manipulate fire. Teostra can breath fire from his mouth and produce a powerful heat wave.
- He is sometimes called the Emperor of Flame or Flame King Dragon.
On his wings are old scales that act as explosive powder. He’ll use his wings to spread the powder at close or long range to deal heavy damage to foes. Once the powder has been spread out, he’ll snap his jaws and ignite all the powder at once. These powerful explosions can catch some foes off guard.
Recently, it has been discovered that Teostra have another defense that has been rarely seen. Teostra will cover itself in an explosive powder, when greatly enraged, and begin to perform far deadlier explosive attacks than ever before. This Explosive State allows Teostra to leave behind an explosive powder with almost all of its attacks that can explode over time or be ignited immediately by Teostra itself. Teostra can even use the powder for many close range attacks, but more skilled Teostra have learnt to use the powder at long range. When Teostra exits this state, it will fly into the air and ignite the powder all at once. When the powder is all ignited, Teostra will be covered in a large burst of fire, that is sometimes referred to as the Supernova, and will begin to act as it was before entering the deadly state.
Some Teostra have been observed drinking lava or even diving into lava.
Teostra have been found to eat coal in volcanic areas, though its unknown why. Some say it is for nutrition, while others say to help it is to fuel his flames.
The texture of his mane are bit stiff compared to a Lunastra's mane.
Like Lunastra, his tail is strong enough to break rock.
His horns symbolize power and majesty.
- A Supremacy Teostra's horns is said to be a proof of honor.
The coal that Teostra feeds on forms the gems found inside his body.
Teostra are considered to be the most common Elder Dragon species in the world.

Toa Tesukatora[]

Every year in the Snowy Mountains and Polar Sea, massive blizzards were caused by Toa Tesukatora. Due to how unusually violent the blizzards were, the Hunter's Guild began to believe it was an Elder Dragon of some kind and later discovered Toa Tesukatora.
From its appearance, Toa Tesukatora is believed to be a close relative of Teostra by the Hunter's Guild.
Toa Tesukatora can walk straight through blizzards with ease, unlike most other creatures.
- Toa Teskatora’s blizzard will slowly freeze foes if they don’t move.
Toa Tesukatora has powder that comes from its wings and horns. This powder rapidly cools water around it to produce snow and ice.
- If these scales get on a living creature, they’ll slowly freeze in place and become vulnerable to attack.
Its scales are as clear as ice with cold air around them. Even when cut off, the scales keep their beauty.
Toa Tesukatora's mane is completely frozen though keeps its form. Even in heat, this mane never melts.
Like Teostra, Toa Tesukatora horns symbolize power with their stunning beauty. This power even controls the sky.
Its tail has a blue shine that combines beauty and durability.
Toa Tesukatora's gem is a mixture of black and white with freezing cold air surrounding it. This gem shows how it is king.

Rukodiora[]

Rukodiora was known in the Mezeporta for a long time, but was constantly mistaken for other Elder Dragons from its destruction.
Rukodiora is different from other Elder Dragons that have been discovered mainly from its wings and body shape.
The gold dust seen around it is iron mixed with its magnetic force. Its shield is used as both defense and offense against threats. To keep its powers of magnetism strong, it is always fully charged throughout its body. A Rukodiora's scales and wings are the main reason why it is always charged. From this, it really isn't affected by certain poisons.
Rukodiora's beam is made of the dragon element and magnetism.
Rukodiora are said to have multiple organs with electrical properties.
Like many other Elder Dragons, Rukodiora's true role in the ecosystem is unknown though they have been seen in the desert.

Their claws are light and are able to slice through metal.
Even when their horn is broken, they still can control their magnetism well.
Its tail is said to be quite different from other Elder Dragons.
Strange black stones have been found inside Rukodiora. These stones are from gems and jewels sometimes produced inside of their body.

Zenith Rukodiora[]

Coming Soon!

Rebidiora[]

Rebidiora is a mutation of Rukodiora that is overcharged with electricity.
- It has been said that Rebidiora are trying to protect themselves from their own shocks. This is what has lead to their appearance changing overtime.
Their horns are different so they can better control the Thunder Element.
Unlike Rukodiora, Rebidiora has dumped its defense for its powerful lightning-based attacks. Now, in most cases, hunters don't see them carrying any type of debris around them.
Besides being seen in Mezeporta, Rebidiora has been sighted in the Great Forest and Gorge from larger amounts of lightning in those areas.
- One Rebidiora was even able to destroy a whole forest with lightning strikes from itself.
Its scales show its electrical shocks throughout its body.
Its tail shocks people by just touching it.
Its shell stores electricity.
A special crystal has been found inside of Rebidiora's body that combines its magnetism with its lightning. This crystal is believed to be how the Thunder Pole (Thunder + Dragon) Element is made.

Harudomerugu[]

Harudomerugu is a new species of Elder Dragon that was discovered in the Snowy Mountains.
On Harudomerugu's body is a silver liquid metal, mercury, that it is able to freely manipulate. From this metal and ability, it is also known as the Silver Controlling Dragon.
To manipulate this metal, Harudomerugu have special red organs that can be seen on some parts of their body. These organs aggregate to produce the liquid metal.
Unlike other Elder Dragons, it has no film on its wings to allow it to fly. Instead it uses the mercury for its wing membrane allowing Harudomerugu to fly.
Harudomerugu are described to be quite intelligent, even for Elder Dragons. They cover themselves in the mercury for defense and even use the mercury to form all sorts of weapons to fight off threats. Harudomerugu have been seen able to form blades, daggers, disk, and even giant balls of mercury around themselves before rolling at great speeds. This intelligence is also backed up by the shape of a Harudomerugu's horn.
- Without the metal on Harudomerugu's body, it is found to have black scales that are easier to scar.
- If threatened or attacked by outside threats, Harudomerugu will actually track and attempt to end the life of their foes. This is the reason why they sometimes attack Mezeporta.
The tail is covered in thorns that can make a hunter bleed if touched with bare hands.
The claws are as sharp as steel. They can be used for processing tools.
Its wings sound sharp with wind simply blowing on them.

Nefu Garumudo[]

- Its weapons and equipment are said to have a connection with this civilization.
It lives on a small island that has been unknown to humanity for hundreds or even longer.
Nefu Garumudo is able to manipulate blue crystals and some kind of energy with ease. It drags these crystals from underground with its tail before using them to cover its body and use the energy throughout its whole body.
- These crystals only stay on it for a short period of time.
When its tail has grabbed one of these crystals, its tail becomes weaker to attacks. If hunters are able to break the crystal on Nefu Garumudo's tail, the crystal will attach to them and greatly increase a hunter's strength.
Nefu Garumudo is based on Anubis, God of the Underworld.
Nefu Garumudo's natural disaster is desertification. It can actually create deserts.

Nergigante[]

Nergigante is a new mysterious monster that has attacked the Research Commission recently.
It was given the title, Extinction Dragon (Japanese 滅尽龍), due to it destroying everything in its path without worrying about harming its own body.
This Elder Dragon is highly aggressive and will go out of its way to kill anything that stands in its way.
Nergigante is constantly regenerating its skin as it attacks and is being stroke by hunters. It will slowly grow white spikes on certain body parts, which harden overtime. Hunters must try to break the white spikes before they harden. Once they have hardened, its attacks deal more damage.
- Nergigante actually breaks its own parts with the immense force behind its attacks.
- The black spikes on Nergigante are old while the white spikes are young.

Vaal Hazak[]

Shagaru Magala loses its heat sensors from its eyes developing.
Shagaru Magala and Gore Magala are sometimes compared to light and darkness.
Shagaru Magala is believed to have complete control over Frenzy Virus, manipulating it at its own will.
Last time Shagaru Magala appeared in the Heaven's Mount, all the monsters became infected and went feral. After sometime, there was huge amount of corpses left behind from monsters killing each other and most of them went extinct.
They have gained some resistance against lightning, unlike Gore Magala.
The scales of Shagaru Magala are said to shine in the darkness of the virus and in the sky. The light that Shagaru Magala uses seems to protect its body.
Shagaru Magala's wings are sometimes compared to some rare ore since they feel similar and shine like them.
Its wings have rainbow colors, when sunlight reflects off them.
The wings are used as both weapons and shields against enemies.
Its wing claws have a mysterious glow due to hardening from old age. They are powerful weapons and are said to smooth down by cutting through things.

It takes a long time for a Gore Magala to become a Shagaru Magala.
- It is believed that some Gore Magala can be as old as one hundred before molting.
Shagaru Magala's virus is a lot more dangerous since it can cover a much wider range than Gore Magala's virus and can potentially wipe out all life in one area completely, but also other areas.
- If a Shagaru Magala is killed, the virus it produced will spread much farther and infect other areas easily due to nothing controlling it.
- The virus's range will also block out the sun and put the area in a seemingly endless night.
Shagaru Magala spread a mist of the virus around their territory to prevent Gore Magala from molting properly. Inside their mist is a new powerful strand of the virus that infects all creatures in their territory, eventually killing most of them. But there is something else in their virus... The virus contains their parasitic offspring, the Gore Magala. Magala reproduce asexually. Their offspring live in the host whether it is dead or alive though infected corpses act as nurseries for the babies. They get their nutrition and everything they need from their host. So Shagaru Magala fill the area with the deadly mist so they can claim a territory for themselves, prevent future rivals from appearing, and to bring forth the next generation of Magalas.
- It is normal for Gore Magala to go to Heaven's Mount. When it is time to molt, they to the place they were born to become an adult.
The growth of a Shagaru Magala's claws continues even after it has molted as a Gore Magala, even though it is mature.

Gogmazios[]

For a long time, Dundorma was constantly attacked by all sorts of Elder Dragons. To defend the town against these threats, they made all sorts of powerful weapons to defend the town, which eventually led to them making the Original Dragonator to defend the town. The Original Dragonator alone defeated many foes and defended Dundorma time after time. From this success, it became the symbol of the town. Over time, the Dragonator got old and wasn't as useful as it once was so the town replaced it with a newer, more powerful Dragonator. The old Dragonator was put into a weapons warehouse by His Immenseness and was left there as a memory for Dundorma. One night in that warehouse, the old Dragonator, along with large amounts of explosives and gunpowder, disappeared mysteriously. The cause of it was unknown, but a black goo was left behind. Many years later, the same thing happened to many of the explosives and gunpowder in the warehouse, but more often than before. Like before, a black goo was left behind and it was discovered to be highly flammable. It was later discovered to be pure oil and a trace of this oil was found close to the outflow source for Dundorma. The Guild Knights followed the trail and saw a giant Elder Dragon leaving Dundorma. They found some gunpowder on its body and saw the Original Dragonator on its back. From this alone, they identified it as the Warehouse Thief and say it likes to feed on explosives, along with gunpowder. From the discovery of this monster, the Guild labeled it as a monster that needs to be repelled from its huge size and being capable of destroying towns. The Guild also gave it the name, Gogmazios.
Gogmazios has a sulfur diet. From this diet, it is known to invade towns for gunpowder.
Gogmazios doesn't have any legends, lore, or stories about it. No one hasn't even witnessed this monster until recently.
Gogmazios has an extra pair of limbs used to help it support itself as it walks bipedally and are used as a weapon to fight of threats. These extra limbs also double as wings and there is also a lot of muscles found inside those limbs alone, which explains how its able to walk upright.
It's suggested that Gogmazios may live in one of the Swamps in the Old World.
Besides using its extra limbs as a weapon, it'll actually use its whole body as a weapon to fight off a threat. It mainly uses its limbs, tail, and size to fight.
Gogmazios is considered to be one of the most agile of the giant Elder Dragons known.
Gogmazios produces the oil inside of its body. The oil circulates throughout Gogmazios's body and some of it pours out of its back, dripping out of its back. This oil is sticky so some objects stick to the oil and remains on its body. Some items that have been found in the oil is arrows, bowgun shots, weapons, rare artifacts, and in one case an old Dragonator.
- Even some living organisms have been found in the oil.
- The oil is also highly explosive.
From the oil spilling from its back, it has hardened on Gogmazios's scales and shell covering some of its body, increasing the defense of its body.
Inside of its body and in its extra limbs are organs that produce extreme heated-fire. It has a special organ that allows it to feed on the sulfur through decomposition of sulfur. As the sulfur decomposes, heat is decomposed. Another special organ is able to get rid of excess heat and capable of heat exhaustion.
- Smoke seen coming from its back is the excessed heat coming from its skin.
When greatly angered, its body temperature greatly increases causing the oil to heat up and ignite faster along with bombing the area with igniting oil plus fire to destroy many things.
The many spikes on them and the tail is about as long as a Dragonator.
Its rarest item is said to be harboring a fire god. If cracked, the fire god will escape and burn down the whole land before eventually scorching the world.
The oil coming out of a Gogmazios is impurities, such as waste or sweat, from its skin due to its diet.
The wings of Gogmazios aren't tattered. The oil on its body has actually stuck the wings to its arms due to it hardening. When greatly angered, the heat will cause the oil to evaporate from its wings and Gogmazios forces itself to fly in the air. Gogmazios don't fly easily and rarely fly.
Without the oil on its body, Gogmazios resemble the Revolving Dragons though are a blue in color.
Gogmazios have a very long lifespan. Due to this, Gogmazios didn't evolve very much and still greatly resemble their ancestors.
Gogmazios hibernate underground for a very long period of time, spanning to a few years or even several decades, when it has obtained enough food, but waking up to feed again when food is needed. This plus it destroying some villages while searching for food is the reason why it hasn't been seen very much by people.
Gogmazios's weapons have sleep due to a lack of weapons with the aliment.
- Though it has some point due to the whole sleeping for years thing.
Gogmazios's name came from Gog andMagog. Its name also comes from a combination of the words, Geo and erojion (Erosion in French).

Valphalk[]

This Elder Dragon has been reported all over the world as a giant red comet for thousands of years.
- No one actually knew what this thing was for a long time.
- Its title is Sky Comet Dragon (Japanese 天彗龍), though it is sometimes called the Evil Star of the Silver Wing (Japanese 銀翼の凶星).
It is very hard to encounter an Valphalk due to it flying in very high altitudes. The best chance of encountering one is on top of huge mountains or by airship.
Valphalk is the fastest flying monster known thus far.
- That title originally went to Shantien.
Occasionally, Valphalk are encountered by airships, but it flies so fast that pilots can't react in time. This monster crashes into airships, sending the riders straight to the ground.
Valphalk's wings are different from other known monsters. It fires some type of reddish flames from its wings, which allows it to fly at high speeds.
- This makes it hard to keep track of it, so it is suggested to look for a giant red light.
It can place its wings in two different directions: Backwards and Forward. When the wings are forward, it can fire the Dragon Element from its wings like missiles. When the wings are backwards, it can fly at shocking speeds at foes.
- It can even change its wings into a blade-like form, similar to Glavenus's blade-like tail.
The special organ on its chest sucks in air before releasing it out of its wings, along with this red energy. Valphalk's breathing methods is nearly identical to birds in a sense. This organ is constantly glowing red and occasionally pulses whenever Valphalk decides to use it for certain actions, such as flying.
- Valphalk has air sacs in its wings, just like birds, that are connected to its lungs. This allows it to control the air around it.
Valphalk has silver scales that reflect light, in order to reduce the amount of sunlight it receives. These scales are needed due to it flying in such high altitudes.
Valphalk is able to extend out blades from its wings through the expansion and contraction of the muscles, along with ligaments at the base of its wings.
Originally, in early concept, Valphalk was going to use magnetism, just like Rukodiora, before it was proposed it would use the Dragon Element.
- Valphalk was even going to leave behind glowing particles as it fight, just like Shantien.
Early on in development, Valphalk was meant to be a High Ranking Monster beyond the Fated Four (Japanese 4大メインモンスターの上位に君臨する存在). The reason why the development team gave Valphalk Magala's basic body stance is, because they wanted to have parts on the monster that could freely change in battle. Magala's basic body stance was perfect for this, because it walked on all fours and used its other two limbs in battle, making it a powerful foe for any normal hunter (Japanese 力強さを持たせるために4つの脚を地面に付けた体制の上で、形状を自由に変えて扱える部位があってほしかったので、四肢とは別に翼脚を持つゴアの骨格のが適していた).

Xeno'jiiva[]

Xeno'jiiva is an Elder Dragon that was recently discovered hiding in the New World.
It is believed that it feeds on bioenergy and was incubating in the crystals of the Elder's Recess before eventually awakening.
- The crystals in the Elder's Recess come from the accumulated energy from the dead Elder Dragons of the Rotten Vale, thus producing them.
- This bioenergy can be found throughout the New World.
It seems Xeno'jiiva used those crystals or some other unknown material to lure dying Elder Dragons to the New World so that it could further feed on their bioenergy after they passed.

Alatreon[]

Alatreon is nicknamed the Elder Dragon that is even feared by Gods.

It is even sometimes called The King of Darkness and The Strongest Elder Dragon.

Its shell has the ability to cause attacks to bounce on impact and protect the whole body from attacks.
With some Alatreon, their shell isn't affected by attacks.
Alatreon scales grow backwards and are as sharp as blades.
- Each of the scales have all four elements.
Its talons are so sharp no one can even predict their strength and its talons can call forth images of terrible weapons made from it.
Alatreon's wings are dark, even when light shines on them.
It is rumored that the wings can cut through time and space to destroy the whole world. *The horns are able to cut through the sky and can even destroy some of the toughest rocks.
The horns are even said to cut through space and time though that is only a rumor.
Those who have the legendary Azure Dragongem is said to bring a swift end to those who possess it while the even more legendary Azure Dragonsphire is said to those who discover it heralds the end of the world.
Alatreon actually doesn't appear in legends or any form of documents, so it was never known. Alatreon was only somewhat discovered by geological researchers studying the Sacred Land due to airships that crashed there until finally Alatreon destroyed another airship and was finally seen as threat to the Guild as a Living Natural Disaster.
- Due to Alatreon's varying appearance, when it changed forms, it made it less believable that it even exist.
- Though it has no legends or documents, Alatreon may have been known since the 1st Generation, alongside Fatalis, by the Hunter's Guild.
- Interestingly, Alatreon was thought to be some type of Origin Dragon, much like the Fatalis Brethren.
After Alatreon's discovery, the Hunter's Guild silently kept this monster's presence from being known. This was to prevent panic.

From how ancient the Sacred Land is it could be estimated that Alatreon is quite ancient itself.

Alatreon could even be close to Dire Miralis in age.
Alatreon's, like most other Elder Dragons, ecology is unknown.
Its said though to harness four elements in its body. Alatreon can cause blizzards, storms, rain fire, and lightning storms as its natural disasters which can all be seen in the Sacred Land while fight it.
Compared to other Elder Dragons, Alatreon have immense elemental power in their body that is constantly produced, no matter what its mood and intentions are.
Even if Alatreon dies, its body is said to continue producing this power.
Alatreon is 3105.cm long.
It has been rumored that there is an Alatreon Subspecies and this has been hinted at throughout the 3rd Generation.
- Supposedly, if it’s real, it has the ability to produce blue flames and has white scales that sparkle with blue flames.
- Supposedly, its title is Shining Blue Dragon (Japanese 煌蒼龍).
Alatreon's home, the Sacred Land, has no other species in it, including plants. It is like a living hell of another world.
- This suggest that whenever Alatreon appears in an area, that it'll eventually turn a land into a barren wasteland from its unstable power.

Disufiroa[]

Disufiroa is the only known organism to be living in the World's End.
- Interestingly, Disufiroa was known before, but was forgotten for unknown reasons until being rediscovered.
- Disufiroa have also been reported near volcanoes.
In the past during the Great Dragon War, a Disufiroa was fighting Shantien over power. Both species are powerful Elder Dragons, however, both continued fighting for many decades. In the end, Disufiroa came on top.
- The volcanic area where Shantien has been seen is not too far away from the World's End.
Disufiroa is considered to be the Strongest Monster known to the Hunter's Guild, at least in Mezeporta.
Most details about this Elder Dragon is unknown, it actually has faint ancient documents about it, unlike Alatreon.
Disufiroa and Alatreon are believed to share the same ancestor.
- Disufiroa is shockingly smaller than Alatreon yet more powerful.
This Elder Dragon is capable of controlling fire and ice at the same time. Disufiroa is able to use ice by utilizing its horn to control cold air and heated fire produced by its bodies. As a result, the ice and fire attacks are constantly conflicting with each other. It must maintain control of a balance of ice and fire or it'll die from being unstable.
- The most commonly seen cause of death for a Disufiroa is loss of ice control.
Though most Disufiroa die from loss of ice control, some Disufiroa have found ways to free themselves from this ice when near death. By using a combination of fire and dragon, these powerful Disufiroa are able to free themselves from their own ice before reawakening and fighting more fiercely than ever before. When these Disufiroa reawaken, they'll unleash powerful flames and ice around themselves before both elements discolor their appearance.
- Though these Disufiroa have reawakened, it is said they don't have complete control over fire and ice, but both elements are more violent than ever before.
Disufiroa scales are unique due to the fact that the red scales are scorching hot, while the white scales are ice cold to the touch.
Disufiroa's horn controls cold air, but also the mass of ice it produces. As long as the horn isn't completely broken, Disufiroa can still control cold air.
Its claws are scorching hot, allowing them to cut through anything with ease. These claws can gouge the earth and leave behind a fiery explosion all at once.
There are many scars on Disufiroa's wing membrane yet they don't lose any of their strength or power in their wings, even with those old injuries.
The tail is quite flexible has many icicles on it that led to its back.
Disufiroa's gem is freezing ice and a burning flame. It is said that this is what controls both elements.
Disufiroa's concept was basically a monster that was meant to be strong and made to look strong.

Guanzorumu[]

Guanzorumu is an ancient Elder Dragon that is viewed as a king. It is known to inhabit the Cloud Viewing Fortress.
- In the past, Guanzorumu overtook the Cloud Viewing Fortress with an army of small Flying Wyverns before the fallen ancient ruins its personal home.
Guanzorumu is followed by a small species of Flying Wyvern called Egyurasu, that are seen as its servants. They view Guanzorumu as their undisputed ruler. Though they are considered timid, Egyurasu have a relationship with Guanzorumu but not a rivalry. Egyurasu and Guanzorumu have some type of symbiotic relationship. If Guanzorumu is attacked, Egyurasu will immediately swarm around anything that seems to be the attacker. If Guanzorumu lets out a roar, the Egyurasu will immediately rush to where it is at.
- Guanzorumu's relationship with the Egyurasu is viewed as Master and Servants.
Unlike most other species of Elder Dragons, Guanzorumu has high-pitched roars used to control the Egyurasu within the fortress to do whatever it wants. These commands mostly consist of the Egyurasu breathing fire, forming large spheres of wind around it, or even dropping hunters down to their death. The roars can even push nearby objects back with their immense force. Guanzorumu's roars are considered to be louder than even Laviente's roars. The commands made can greatly help Guanzorumu in battle.
Its golden horns greatly resemble a crown.
Many hunters have went to hunt down Guanzorumu, but not a single one has ever comeback in the past. From not a single hunter ever coming back, information on Guanzorumu is very little. This says that the monster is extremely dangerous.
Guanzorumu has two different forms. Its first form focuses on using the Fire Element and controlling the Egyurasu. Its second form focuses on using the Dragon Element and more destructive attacks.
- As Guanzorumu's mood changes, the weather in the area will also change.
Guanzorumu has large wing membranes that spread down to its tail. These giant wings allow Guanzorumu to fly efficiently in the air and even send gust of wind at nearby enemies.
The fins on its tail can cut through just about anything in a single slice.
Much like Alatreon, Guanzorumu has scales that protect it from most attacks.
Under the scales is thermal insulating skin, which absorbs the most powerful of blows.
In some rare cases, extremely powerful Guanzorumu individuals have been reported with golden scales and fire engulfing certain parts of their body. These individuals have been called Ruling Guanzorumu. Instead of using fire and dragon separately, Ruling Guanzorumu have the ability to breath golden flames that contain both elements combined together. Even their Egyurasu can breath these golden flames. Along with these two traits, Ruling Guanzorumu's Egyurasu continue to support them in battle, even in giant storms.

Fatalis[]

Fatalis is the apex being over all wyverns, in other words the strongest among them.
- The Royal Paleontology Scriveners even said that this is the most ferocious and deadliest monster in the world.
It is believed to be much older than times we are even aware of. It is believed Fatalis has been around since the ancient times, when many extinct species still existed.
Some groups believe Fatalis was the earliest dragon, potentially even being the very first one, though this is only legends.
Fatalis's title, in multiple different regions, are different from each other. This is due to other monsters sharing the Black Dragon title like Dire Miralis and Alateron.
Fatalis threatens the lives of all living things, including other Elder Dragons.
The Fatalis is one of the few monsters able to affect the world. Fatalis could scorch the whole world with its flame in a few days, in other words Fatalis could possibly burn areas to a crisp with its powerful fire and destroy major ecosystems and, affecting the world.
Since the Fatalis is only detailed in legends and fairy tales, it is detailed as an imaginary monster. From info on it being very little, it is only pictured on icons as ? since no real things have been found on it.
According to ancient documents, Fatalis brings its victims back to its lair before melting them to its own scales for their powerful armored hide. It also does this to hunters and soldiers.
The Fatalis's scales are extremely thick while its hide is very heavy and hard.
The Fatalis's eyeballs are made of crystals and is one of three great treasures.
A Fatalis's wing membrane is flexible, but also as hard metal. Breaking its wings isn't very easy.
The power of Fatalis is said to be held in its horns.
A Fatalis's armor has hunters recalling the howl of Fatalis and may have hunters die from the fright of memories.
- The set also gives hunters terrible nightmares, unsettling strength, have them feeling the pulse of Fatalis, possession, has both legs feeling as if they have been seized by Fatalis, and if worn to long the hunter will either die or disappear mysteriously.
The Great Sword's and Hammer's despair eats at the user and any hunter that uses one of these weapons is forever locked in a battle against the Elder Dragons.
The Hammer demands a sacrifice.
When its Long Sword is held, hideous, abyssal screams are heard. When upgraded, the wounds this weapon inflicts never heal and remain raw for years.
The Sword and Shield envelopes all in it path.
The Dual Blades turn the hunter's arms into deadly blades.
Anyone who hears the song of the Hunting Horn will faint. This weapon when upgraded is said to change listeners into disheartened beasts.
Its Gunlance is said to be cursed and used for evil purposes.
The Bowguns have a thirst for blood.
It is said that this equipment might be alive, meaning that Fatalis might not truly be dead. In Pokke Village, a giant blade embedded in the ice is known to regenerate days after being mined once, which supports this claim that Fatalis is still alive.

The Legend of the Black Dragon[]

When the world is full of wyverns
The legend is revived
Meat is eaten, Bone is crunched,
And blood is sucked up dry He burns the earth
and melts through iron
He boils the rivers
and mows down trees
He awakens the winds
and lights an inferno He is called Fatalis
The wyvern of destiny
He is called Fatalis
The wyvern of destruction
Call for help
Run for your lives
And don't forget to
Pray to the skies He is called Fatalis
The wyvern of destiny
He is called Fatalis
The wyvern of destruction
Fatalis, Fatalis
Heaven and Earth are yours
Fatalis, Fatalis
Heaven and Earth are yours

The Great Wyvern Disaster[]

Thousands of years ago, a large disaster hit Schrade Kingdom without any warning. This disaster stroke the eastern and western parts of Schrade Kingdom at the same time, as if the disaster came from the middle of the kingdom. It is believed a chaotic force brought the kingdom to its knee or another force altogether did. After this disaster, eerie clouds covered the once great kingdom, leaving it in calamity and ruins.
- It seems that whatever disaster happened in Schrade Kingdom, it seems to have began in the center of the kingdom.
The ruins aren't inhabited by anything, even powerful monsters avoid Schrade Kingdom. All living things avoid that place as if they were scared of something there, except one. Merchants and travelers, that have traveled close to the kingdom, report seeing some type of dragon inhabiting it and being severely scared to death as if an evil presence lives in Schrade Kingdom.
The Hunter's Guild have sent many elite hunters to investigate the kingdom in the past many years about this so called dragon. However, most hunters never comeback after going to that dead kingdom. Those few hunters who do return have a shocked, frightening look to their face, with a blink expression, and prefer to remain silent towards others, as if something truly scared them.
It is said that Schrade Kingdom was destroyed due to them having a war with this mysterious dragon.

Fatalis's Corruption and The Guild's Secrets[]

After Schrade Kingdom's destruction, many travelers avoided going anywhere near that fallen place.
Hunters have went to the Schrade Kingdom to search for Fatalis, however, most of them never return, disappearing without a trace. The Hunter's Guild would try to hear the claims by those few hunters that survived, however, they wouldn't talk to anyone and just remained silent, as if something truly scared them. To this very day, everything surrounding Schrade Kingdom is still a mystery.
Those few hunters that survive actually do bring back parts of Fatalis, though all weapon smithies know nothing about this monster's materials. Usually, the materials are crafted into armor to act as a medal to show off. At first, the armor is actually normal, but overtime that changes. According to few hunters that wore the armor, they can hear the howls of Fatalis and recall terrible memories. There is even one claim that the armor changed a hunter's arm into the Fatalis's arm. The armor of Fatalis does a variety of things to the wearer but always ends in one of two ways: If worn too long, the hunter will die from the madness this set causes or disappear mysteriously without a trace.
- Fatalis armor also causes hunters to have terrible nightmares, unsettling strength, have them feeling the pulse of Fatalis, possession caused by Fatalis, and having both legs feeling as if they have been seized by Fatalis.
- Fatalis armor is considered to be purely evil.
- Smithies who actually helped make this monster's equipment will be struck many misfortunes for their whole life.
Fatalis's Sword and Shield, Lance, and Great Sword are called and are feared as the Artifacts of the Evil Dragon (Japanese 邪龍の神器).
- Any hunters that uses its Great Sword is forever locked in a battle against the Elder Dragons.
- The Sword and Shield envelopes all in it path.
- Its Lance inflicts wounds that never heal and remain raw for hundreds of years.
The Fatalis's eyeballs are made of crystals and it’s one of three great treasures.
Due to many incidents surrounding Schrade Kingdom and Fatalis, the Hunter's Guild has classified everything about both away from the public. Fatalis's armor and quest are only allowed to those that have proven they are quite credible. For those hunters that are trying to reach new heights of power, Fatalis is also looked at as A Hunter's Ultimate Goal (Japanese ハンター人生の究極の目標).

Fatalis's True Hatred[]

Fatalis is called the Perfect Enemy For Humanity (Japanese 完全なる人類の敵).
Fatalis remembers the past of the Great Dragon War and continues to hate humanity.
- This especially goes for White Fatalis, who continues to remember the past of its brethren, including other Elder Dragons and even Flying Wyverns, being killed in great numbers.
Its legend, The Legend of the Black Dragon, actually describes all that happened in the Great Dragon War.
In the legend, "When the world is full of wyverns, the legend is revived, meat is eaten, bone is crunched."
Fatalis' reason for melting hunters and knights onto its shell is not only for increasing its armor plating. This is also an imitation of what both hunters and the Ancient Civilization did to many monsters.
This Elder Dragon is feared for the amount of destruction it can do in a short period of time, without any warning, like Schrade Kingdom's fall.

G-rank (Frontier Generation)[]

In some legends about the Fatalis, there is a legend known by some as the Black Flame. This legend claims that the Second Coming of Fatalis is infinite.
The G-rank Fatalis is some type of mutation of Fatalis.
- It is believed that the Dragon Element caused this Fatalis to change dramatically.
Inside of the G-rank Fatalis's body is a bizarre substance that flows throughout its whole body. It is hard to guess how much the substance weighs.
- It is believed this is the effects of the Dragon Element.
The jewel found inside a G-rank Fatalis doesn't seem to be made of any earthly materials and has formed inside its body over many years.
A single flap from the G-rank Fatalis's wings instantly makes other monsters run.
The eyeball of the G-rank Fatalis has a creepy light coming from it and invites those it stares at to its dark depths.
Similar to Dire Miralis, the G-rank Fatalis's scales and shell show signs of regenerative powers.
The shell of the G-rank Fatalis is impervious to strikes from weapons and has terrifying power inside of it.
Its horns control the power of the Dragon Element.
The G-rank Fatalis's armor has a skill, known as Black Lifeline. Black Lifeline shows signs of Fatalis possession. Some hunters who have worn the armor of the Black Flame, they report feeling as if their body was taken over while they were unconscious.
- This skill activates when all of the hunter's strength is brought down to nothing until The Power of the Black Flames takes over their unconscious body.
- This is also described to be a curse.

Crimson Fatalis[]

Crimson Fatalis is the Incarnation of Evil.
Crimson Fatalis is the same species as Fatalis.
- Crimson Fatalis is a greatly enraged Fatalis whose scales have changed color due to its constant rage.
It is believed to be truly real, unlike the Fatalis.
The reason why its called the Red Dragon is, because of the color of its scale. It's believed to be this color due to its anger since it is a lot more aggressive than the Black Fatalis.
Just like Fatalis, it too is one of the few monsters able to affect the world and threatens the lives of all living things, including other powerful Elder Dragons. Despite this Crimson Fatalis is a much bigger threat than Fatalis, causing much deadlier natural disasters.
Crimson Fatalis can summon meteors from space to strike foes. It is unknown how it can do this. These meteors seem to be summoned by Crimson Fatalis by it performing certain gestures though its completely unknown how its able to do summon meteors by just doing these gestures.
Crimson Fatalis is sometimes believed to be the True Power of the Volcano.
Crimson Fatalis's ecology is unknown like Black Fatalis, but its flying abilities are said to exceed a Fatalis's flying skills.
Crimson Fatalis are said to primarily live in volcanic areas in legends. In some old documents and reports, Crimson Fatalis is said to have appeared and attacked Castle Schrade at some point, just like Fatalis. In the legends of some areas, some incarnations of Crimson Fatalis are said to live in the deep craters of active volcanoes.
- Only old legends are usually passed around and hunting of this creature is shrouded in secrecy. Some regions have their own legends and their own incarnations of the Crimson Fatalis with some being quite different from others.
Its hide is said to be the symbol of pure anger and rage. Even when it hide is cut off, it still glows red like magma in anger.
Its scales are said to glow crimson in faint darkness and can be seen in the night sky, when it flies.
Its wings still pulse with life, even after being taken off.
Its Sword and Shield has a reputation for ending darkness and its power gathers at the sound of a roar.
The Heavy Bowgun was built by reading ancient text though how it works is a mystery.
The Lance dispels darkness and the veins in this weapon begin to pound if a wyvern is near.
- This hints that Crimson Fatalis is still alive and connects it to White Fatalis.
Crimson Fatalis's armor is a master of power though the power is very discomforting. The instant the armor is worn, the lust for darkness reigns. Each crack from this is a life of the fallen. The longer this armor is worn, the more you feel its spirit take control of you.
Its Gunner Armor Set causes wordly thoughts to vanish and hallucinations. Drawings of this armor can be found in the Towers. It also causes hunters to feel dread.
It is said that this equipment might be alive, meaning that Fatalis might not truly be dead. In Pokke Village, a giant blade embedded in the ice is known to regenerate days after being mined once, which supports this claim that Fatalis is still alive.

G-rank (4th Generation)[]

The Ancient Civilization predicted that this monster would eventually appear in the world. In legend, it is said that this Fatalis will awaken from its long slumber and bring death to the world. This is a fate that is beyond human control. It is thought that it will bring destruction before the world is reborn a new.
- They theorized that Fatalis, the Black Dragon, would eventually become this embodiment of wrath and rage.
It is said that this Crimson Fatalis is an extremely angry Fatalis that has awakened a forgotten rage.
- It is believed that this Crimson Fatalis might’ve been dead and came back for revenge.
- In the past, a Fatalis left Dundorma in fear before being taken out by a mysterious hunter. It is unknown what happened to said hunter and Fatalis.
This Fatalis is about a mysterious as White Fatalis. Not much is really known about it, other than ancient documents spoke about in prophecy.
Due to the lava, this Crimson Fatalis's scales and shell have changed to a different more violent color. Many documents suggest that it is somehow getting its power from the lava around it. It even is able to somehow to manipulate the lava to attack threats from great distances.
Unlike other Fatalis, this Crimson Fatalis can actually make powerful heat waves, like Lunastra and Teostra, by using its powerful wings.
It was thought to be a mere story, but later was confirmed to be real. However, the Hunter's Guild is still very secretive about this particular monster.
Some years ago, hunters went to Castle Schrade and defeated a Fatalis that fled from the Castle Schrade. It was unknown what happened to that Fatalis until it was found again some years later, but now at the Ingle Isle, where it had dramatically changed into a Crimson Fatalis.
This incarnation of Fatalis is said to be another Fatalis that was never been confirmed in any legends until recently. More research is needed to confirm this.
Hunters can't look at this Crimson Fatalis's eyes due to how heinous they are. The eyes try to undermine the very spirit of hunters.
Its shell resembles a rage that can never be stopped. It continues to shine red with immense rage.
Its horns have immense power inside them with anger that divides the heavens.
The red scales have a darkness lurking inside their fiery anger.
Its wings shake the surrounding air with immense power, pulsing red.
G Crimson Fatalis's armor is the rage of the seven deadly sins.

G-rank (Frontier Generation)[]
