Altaroth

Insects that widely inhabit many areas. Noted for absorbing fruit, mushrooms and honey, then carrying them back to their nest. Materials can thus be collected from their swollen abdomens, whose color is related to what is being carried. Altaroth have large mandibles used for absorbing their favorite foods. To help them feed, special enzymes are used to digest these foods. The foods are changed before they're held in Altaroth's abdomen and brought back to the colony. Altaroth are quite fragile in nature.

A altaroth is a nocturnal creature that can absorb mushrooms, berries, and other resources into the sacs on their backs. Alchemists and adventurers prize these creatures, for a altaroth sac contains a liquid said to cure any natural poison or disease. Though the sac is said to only hold its potency for ld6 days after the neopteron dies. Altaroth are most commonly found in forests and in mushroom groves.

Bnahabra

Bnahabra are similar to the Vespoid. Bnahabra fly in a similar fashion, but there are various subspecies of the Bnahabra which vary between the regions, each with distinctly colored wings. Bnahabra are often seen attached to the sides of the walls seemingly lifeless, until a adventurer is close enough - then they fly away or attack. Unlike the Vespoid, Bnahabra can shoot a corrosive liquid which will reduce a adventurer's elemental resistance.

Hornetaur

Hornetaurs sport a large horn for their size that may be used for defense. Their legs are strong, much like a Grasshopper's, so they can jump great distances. There wings are sharp enough to cut human skin just by brushing against them. Hornetaurs will frequently attack the adventurer in groups, making it irksome to fight other monsters in the area. Hornetaur are ravenous eaters that can eat away whole fields in a days time. They will pretty much eat everything in a area like a locust, causing major amounts of damage while doing so.

Vespoid

Vespoids are wasp-like insects roughly the size of a housecat. They have barbed stingers at the end of their abdomens, and fly using three pairs of wings. They are known to be a nuisance for adventurers, due to their stingers loaded with a neurotoxin that can paralyze foes. Vespoid are simple workers to a single large Vespoid Queen. They come in two varieties. The small worker Vespoid is charged with gathering food, maintaining the hive, and caretaking the queen and her eggs. The large, sturdier soldier vespoids exist for the sole purpose of defending the queen. They will frequently attack any intruders, no matter how large or small. Their stingers don't penetrate the thick shells of most wyverns, but pose a significant deterrent to humans and Fanged Beasts alike.

Vespoid Queen

The Vespoid Queen looks similar to the average Vespoid but is several times larger, with a more pronounced abdomen and giant, rainbow coloured wings. She has a rigid exoskeleton covering her soft innards and she has a crown-like structure atop her head.

Vespoid Queen rarely leave their nests as they send out workers to forage for food. They feed on smaller insects, birds, small mammals, lizards, and some vegetation. Whenever the queen does leave the nest she puts herself in serious danger as she can be preyed upon by creatures such as Gypceros, Yian Kut-Ku, Hypnocatrice, and Plesioth.

The Vespoid Queen rarely does battle; when it does, it essentially performs the same attacks as Vespoids with more power; however, it does possess an additional attack: it sprays body fluid at hunters that halves defense. It also produces a beating sound in order to command swarm of Vespoid in battle. The queen spends a vast majority of her time staying within the nest and laying eggs.

Actions

Shock. Melee Weapon Attack. +4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit 1 piercing damage plus 5 (2d4) lightning damage. On hit target must make a DC 10 Constitution saving throw, or become paralyzed for 1 minute. The target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the paralysis on itself on a success.

Konchu

Konchu are highly adaptable and can be found in just about every type of environment. Interestingly. Konchu have a hard shell used for protection against threats. Konchu can curl themselves up into small balls, allowing them to roll around at high speeds. This adaptation can be used as both a means of escape and a form of attack. Konchu also possess powerful jaws used for grasping on to food. Variations of Konchu can have different colors depending on their environment, which they use as a form of camouflage to protect themselves from possible predators.

Konchu mostly stay hidden until they are threatened or smell food. Konchu will swarm around kills but they will wait until the predator is finished with that kill before feeding on the leftovers. When threatened, Konchu will attempt to frighten their attacker away by raising themselves onto their back feet and waving their fan-like pincers. If this does not work, they will proceed to launch themselves at their attacker in an attempt to tackle them. Oddly enough, some hunters have witnessed Konchu crawling on to the bodies of larger monsters and remaining there. This strange phenomenon seems to act as a natural form of armor for the large monsters on which the Konchu place themselves, making it difficult for hunters to damage the monster while it is covered in Konchu and their strong shells. It is uncertain whether this behavior is a sign of some sort of symbiotic relationship between Konchu and other monsters or not.

Seltas

Seltas is a large, mantis like insectoid with a brightly-colored, highly resistant exoskeleton, which is covered in spines and knobs. He has six legs, the foremost pair are armored and weaponized for combat, and a pair of collapsible wings. His head is hidden beneath a large, armored canopy that extends far beyond the rest of his upper body. He has a pair of compound eyes and powerful slicing mandibles. Seltas is the male counterpart to the Seltas Queen.

Seltas is predatory in nature, both large and powerful enough to prey on both hunters and small monsters alike. He is known to attack from the skies and use his weaponized forelimbs to attack. In addition, he is commonly known to attach himself to his massive female partner and transport her with his powerful wings.

When he is forced to merge with Seltas Queen, he will struggle at first to escape. But when the merge has been completed, he will fight alongside Seltas Queen without question as if hypnotized. He won't even fight back when being eaten by his mate, indicating that Seltas Queen has full control of Seltas.

Seltas possess an organ within their body that produces a disgusting liquid. This liquid can be used as a weapon, and as a means of feeding, as the liquid is highly corrosive by itself. Seltas have a long, armored canopy that can be used to pierce through predators and prey alike, which is also able to pierce through rock with their powerful speed. The main weapon of the Seltas, his claws, are used as weapon and as tool to hold down and subdue prey.

Seltas Queen

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

These creatures are the largest known species of Neopteron to date. In fact, they are so heavy that whenever they walk the ground will shake. Seltas Queen have massive and powerful legs that end with two claws. These powerful limbs not only enable the giant insect to climb up rocky, uneven terrain, but greatly make the task of burrowing easy. The large pincers on the tail are mainly used for defense but, can also be used as a another limb for both grabbing objects and prey alike. In its tail, there are specialized organs that produce pheromones that'll send a Seltas flying to a female's exact location. When the male is within range, the female will quickly grab it and inject a special pheromone-like substance that causes the male to cease struggling. The male is then under the female's complete control and will do whatever she requires of him. If in battle, both the male and female will fight as one, this makes fighting the deadly Seltas Queen even deadlier as the two Neopterons will fight as one. A Seltas Queen is also capable of spitting balls of high-pressured watery mucus from its mandibles to slow down and injure prey.

Leading a mainly solitary lifestyle, Seltas Queen will only seek out the company of a Seltas if needed. Whether it be for food, mating, transportation, or added protection a Seltas Queen won't hesitate in releasing her specialized pheromones to bend a male to her will. Amazingly if in battle and in dire need of sustenance a Seltas Queen will not hesitate in violently killing and then eating her male counterpart to survive.

Ahtal-Ka

"In some places, there have been legends about this
Walking Treasure that wanders from place to
place. This treasure is said to raid fortresses,
leaving behind mass destruction, and defeat
whole armies in a matter of minutes. It is even capable of taking over a whole fortress if it wants to. Though
dangerous, inside this giant monster is a treasure that very few are lucky enough to see." Ahtal-Ka is a legendary Mantis-like Neopteron that has been running wild for a few decades now.

Ahtal-Ka is a legendary Mantis-like Neopteron
that has been running wild for a few decades now.
Ahtal-Ka are predators, though it is unknown what
their common prey is. However, female Ahtal-Ka are well-known for feeding on males, showing that this species is cannibalistic in nature.

It somewhat resembles a devil's flower mantis in appearance and the color scheme is similar to that
of a classical Egyptian Pharaoh. The majority of
the body is golden. Its has a large headpiece that has alternating gold and blue lines like those on a
Pharaoh's crown. It has a pair of purple eyes, each
with a minuscule black pupil (much like a mantis).
It has six limbs, each of which are yellow with a
set of purple triangles beneath them. There are
four "legs" and two "claws"; at the end of the "legs"
are small claws/talons while the "claws" have elaborate
wing like extensions at the base and have a pair of large hooks at the ends. Though these claws are weapons,
they are mostly used as tools in manipulating the
goldensilk that Ahtal-Ka produces. This
beautiful silk is sticky and
strong, allowing for Ahtal-Ka
to pull and hold objects
together with little ease.
This silk is also strong enough
to hold a whole fortress
together. Ahtal-Ka mostly
uses the golden silk to
weave together debris it
has stolen from
fortresses. It uses
this debris to construct
something truly
monstrous, a "giant
walking puppet"
for itself called
Ahtal-Nesto.

Legendary Resistance (3/Day). If the ahtal-ka fails a saving throw, it can choose to succeed instead.

Golden Silk. When a creature makes a melee weapon attack against the ahtal-ka's webbing and misses, the weapon becomes stuck to it, requiring an action and a successful DC 19 Strength check to pull free.

Magic Resistance. The ahtal-ka has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.

Paragon Creature. The ahtal-ka counts as a number of creatures equal to it's paragon multiplier (3 counting the ahtal-nest) for the purposes of determining combat encounters. The XP value for a ahtal-ka is multiplied by it's paragon multiplier.

Reel in. The ahtal-ka has a 10-foot beam on its back. When it throws the rusted beam it can pull it back to itself as a bonus action. Any creature in the path of the beam as it is pulled in must make a DC 26 Dexterity saving throw, taking 40 (9d8) bludgeoning damage on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one.

Actions

Multiattack. The ahtal-ka uses its dragonator lance and then makes four attacks: one claw swipe attack, two rusty beam attacks, and one spiderweb burst attack.

Claw swipe. Melee Weapon Attack: +16 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 19 (3d6 + 9) slashing damage. If there is another creature within 5 feet of the target, the other creature must make a DC 26 Dexterity saving throw, taking 19 (3d6+9) slashing damage on a failed save.

Rusted Beam. Melee Weapon Attack: +16 to hit, reach 20 ft., one target. Hit: 27 (4d8 + 9) bludgeoning damage.

Dragonator Lance. The ahtal-ka pulls a 20-foot long by 5-foot wide dragonator lance from the ground within 15 feet of it. It then sends it flying along a 120-foot line. Each creature along the line must make a DC 20 Dexterity saving throw, taking 22 (4d10) piercing damage on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one.

Throw (recharge 5-6). The ahtal-ka uses its claws to pull its webbing attached to the rusted beam sending it crashing down in a 10-foot cube within 60 feet of it. Each creature within the 10-foot cube must make a DC 26 Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save the creature is knocked prone and takes 40 (9d8) bludgeoning damage. On a successful save, the target takes half as much damage and is not knocked prone.

Spiderweb burst. Melee Weapon Attack: +16 to hit, reach 80/320 ft., one target. Hit:The target is Restrained by golden webbing. As an action, the Restrained target can make a DC 19 Strength check, bursting the webbing on a success. The webbing can also be attacked and destroyed (AC 20; hp 40; vulnerability to fire damage; immunity to bludgeoning, poison, and psychic damage).

Scatter Webs (recharge 6). The ahtal-ka releases ten 120-foot long 5-foot wide strands of golden webbing from its abdomen. Each strand goes in a different direction and if it impacts a hard surface, such as a wall, it immediately stops creating a line of webbing. Any creature that starts its turn within the line or moves into it for the first time, must make a DC 26 Dexterity saving throw or they are restrained by the webbing. As an action, the Restrained target can make a DC 19 Strength check, bursting the webbing on a success. The webbing can also be attacked and destroyed (AC 20; hp 40; vulnerability to fire damage; immunity to bludgeoning, poison, and psychic damage).

Paragon Trait

Paragon Fortitude. The ahtal-ka has multiple pools of hit points, each which is tracked separately. Damage and healing only applies to the current hit point pool. When a pool is depleted of all hit points, it becomes inactive. When this happens, the ahtal-ka immediately saves against all ongoing conditions and effects. If all hit point pools are inactive, the ahtal-ka dies. When it takes a long rest, the ahtal-ka heals all hit points in the current pool and fully heals one depleted hit point pool.

Paragon Fury. The ahtal-ka rolls initiative with advantage. The ahtal-ka starts with 1 paragon action. If a hit point pool is depleted, the ahtal-ka gains one additional paragon action. The ahtal-ka may use a paragon action after any other creature takes a turn. If the ahtal-ka does so, they regain their reaction. A paragon action is a complete turn. They have an action, bonus action and may move up to their full speed. The paragon actions refresh at the start of the ahtal-ka's turn and any remaining actions from the previous turn are lost.

Ahtal-ka stat block continued on next page.

Paragon Transformation. When the first pool of hit points becomes inactive, the ahtal-ka wrap itself in a cocoon and pull its collection of scrap metal, debris, and silk forming "walking fortress" known as the Ahtal-Nest. The ahtal-nest stat block can be found below.
  When the ahtal-nest is destroyed or if it is unable to form it, the ahtal-ka enrages. While enraged, the ahtal-ka changes as follows:

It gains the following abilities:

• Dragonator Barrier. Four dragonators constantly spin 5 feet above the ahtal-ka with the point of the lance cutting into the ground. When a creature starts its turn within 10 feet of the ahtal-ka or enters a space within 10 feet of the ahtal-ka for the first time on a turn they take 14 (2d6) slashing damage.
• Freedom of Movement. The ahtal-ka ignores difficult terrain, and magical effects can't reduce its speed or cause it to be restrained. It can spend 5 feet of movement to escape from nonmagical restraints or being grappled.

Its gains the following action:

• Dragonator Swarm. The ahtal-ka pulls out six dragonators from the ground attached to it by golden threads. When it uses this action, and as a bonus action on subsequent turns, the ahtal-ka can hurl up to two dragonators to a location within 120 feet of it. Each creature within 5 feet of the location must make a DC 26 Dexterity saving throw. The dragonator deals 22 (4d10) piercing damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful save.

 

The following action change:

• Rusted Beam attack is renamed to Rusted Wheel.
• Multiattack. The ahtal-ka makes 5 attacks; two spiderweb burst attacks, one claw swipe attack, and two rusted wheel attacks.
• Throw (recharge 5-6). The ahtal-ka throws the 20-foot tall, 5-foot wide rusted wheel on its back. The rusted wheel travels along the ground for 120 feet in any direction. The ahtal-ka travels with the wheel without provoking attacks of opportunity, pulling it onto its back when the wheel stops. If the rusted wheel enters a creatures space during its travel, that creature must make a DC 26 Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save the creature is knocked prone and takes 81 (18d8) bludgeoning damage. On a successful save the creature takes half as much damage and is not knocked prone.

 

Temnoceran

Temnoceran, are a class of monster characterized by its arachnoid characteristics, such as the ability to produce silk, though they have six limbs similar to Neopterons or Carapaceons. This class includes only one type of monster, the Nerscylla.

Nerscylla

Nerscylla physically resembles a real life Arachnid, but is much larger in size. Nerscylla is armed with four powerful legs and two claws, each one tipped with a formidable barbed hook, used for holding prey as well as keeping its grip while scaling walls. In addition, it possesses a massive pair of retractable jaws which can inflict a poisonous bite. It can produce a strong, sticky webbing that it uses to trap prey and build nests.

Nerscylla physically resembles a real life Arachnid, but is much larger in size. Its long, strong legs allow it to move at fast speeds, even sideways. At the tip of its abdomen is a large stinger it may use to attack. Sharp, poisonous spikes protrude from its back.

Nerscylla is armed with four powerful legs and two claws, each one tipped with a formidable barbed hook, used for holding prey as well as keeping its grip while scaling walls. In addition, it possesses a massive pair of retractable jaws which can inflict a poisonous bite. It can produce a strong, sticky webbing that it uses to trap prey and build nests.

These large Temnocerans are ambush predators that will readily attack from behind, below, and above. When making a web they'll wisely construct it in an area where potential prey is most likely to appear. They are most commonly seen to construct their webs near farming settlements where they will attack and kill any livestock that wander into the vicinity of their web for food. Occasionally, they will even snatch away any unwary villagers/farmers that wander into their territory. As stated earlier Gypceros are the favorite prey of the Nerscylla but the food isn't the only reason why the Bird Wyvern is targeted. When killing a Gypceros the large arachnid not only eats it but disturbingly rips the skin off the avian Wyvern's body and wears it's skin as a cloak. This shocking behavior is both horrifying and intriguing to naturalists. The reason why Nerscylla do this is to increase their strength, use as camouflage, and for protection

Dire Miralis

Dire Miralis is a very large, semi-aquatic Elder Dragon. Its body structure is reminiscent of Fatalis, with relatively short limbs and a long tail and neck. Its body is filled with a magma-like substance which pools at the base of the tail, the chest, and at each shoulder. Each of these pools directs magma flow to certain parts of the body. On its back are a pair of wing-like appendages. Seemingly useless in terms of flight, these "wings" feature cannon-like chutes which can extrude globules of magma, both as a means of defense and as a way to jettison excess magma. Dire Miralis head features a frill-like structure and an upturned snout.

Due to the hot fluids inside of Dire Miralis, an intense heat is known to come from its body, boiling any sources of water around it. This intense heat can easily wipe out all living creatures within Dire Miralis's range.

Interestingly, long after a Dire Miralis dies, its heart continues to beat even if removed--just as legend states. It is said that Dire Miralis can regenerate its whole body with its heart alone, and that Dire Miralis is even immortal.

Dire Miralis is extremely hostile to all living things and can destroy an entire ecosystem just from its intense heat. A Dire Miralis actually destroyed the Tainted Sea and killed all living things in the area, filling the water with blood, until it was driven off in ancient times. This monster is one that many hunters don't live to tell about.

Kirin

Kirin resembles a unicorn, though a closer look reveals that it is covered in scales rather than a coat. Its majestic white mane and hair stand on end, as if charged with static. The monster often crackles with stray electricity.

Kirin have white fur used for picking up electricity. When enough electrical currents are picked up in the fur, Kirin will glow brightly and its hide will deflect most attacks. From this, the Adventurer's Guild believe that Kirin's high metabolism helps it pick up electricity as well. A Kirin's most vital feature is its longhorn. This horn is used to summon lightning from the sky, even when there isn't a storm cloud in sight, to strike any foes that threaten it. However, even if this horn is destroyed, Kirin can still summon lightning bolts with little effort.

Some of the more rare, older, or just stronger individuals are known for having unusually strong electrical powers that are yet to be fully understood. Some of the larger, more stronger muscles are located in its legs, capable of delivering deadly kicks. Equipped with such powerful legs, all Kirin possess the ability to run at speeds so unexpectedly fast they appear to teleport, leaving behind a trail of blue electricity.

Kirin are a highly unpredictable species. Sometimes Kirin are calm, other times they are aggressive. In one legend, it was said that a Kirin actually destroyed a whole village with its electrical powers.

Lunastra

Lunastra is colored blue as opposed to Teostra who is red. Her horns are flatter and wider, making a sort of crown structure. They are known to breathe concentrated streams of fire, as well as cloak themselves in a scalding aura. Lunastra are high in the food chain, feeding on both coal, to fuel her fire abilities, and live prey like Apceros. Though Lunastra are powerful, they have to compete with other species like Rajang, Deviljho, and Akantor.

Lunastra, as a fire dragons, naturally have expert control over fire. They can use this ability when hunting to ensure quick and devastating kills. Despite her large size, she is quick on foot and can easily chase down fast moving prey. Lunastra can also generate a fire aura around their bodies from their horns, which helps prevent brazen monsters like Tigrex from dealing serious damage to them. These adaptations enable Lunastra to become a formidable apex predator wherever she is. Their wings are covered in a powder that can be released and, at will, set a flame burning in the air resulting in explosions. This explosive powder is actually the Lunastra's old skin.

Lunastra are brutal female elder dragons, quick to attack at the first sign of trouble, though not as much as Teostra. In the ruins of the old Towers, Lunastra are commonly found in their nest together with Teostra. This suggest that both actually stay in the nest together and guard their young. Though both haven't been seen in the nest together, both of their footprints can be found in the old nests and the active nests together.

Teostra

Teostra is a dragon with leonine features and a fiery coloration. It has a grand mane, large fangs, and a pair of horns that curve backward. Its wings are covered in fur. Teostra is the male counterpart to Lunastra. Being predatory Elder Dragons Teostra are powerful top predators and are easily capable of killing weaker animals such as Aptonoth, Conga, Bulldrome, Iodrome, Apceros, and Cephadrome. Armed with razor sharp claws and flesh ripping teeth these Elder Dragons make short work of prey and smaller predators.

Possessing mastery over flame, there are few creatures that can hope to last against Teostra for long. To defend itself, the Teostra also utilizes a heat shield which damages enemies that get too close. To keep its flame powers going, they consume coal in volcanic environments. It also has detachable wing scales or powder that explode when ignited from a spark made when Teostra bites. It uses these to defend itself from attackers, although they give little protection against enemies with resilience to extreme heat such as Akantor or Lavasioth.

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 angered, 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.

Some extremely rare individuals have more control over their flaming powers than most. They have a different appearance also including more yellow wing webbing, a more reddish mane, red claws, orange tail end and golden eyes. New flame techniques include leaving pockets of explosive powder across the area in the air as it fights and setting them all a flame at will.

Teostra are a very aggressive monster. It will show dominance to anything that it encounters. Compared to Lunastra, who give warnings to get out of its territory, Teostra will ruthlessly attack intruders until they are dead. As one of the most aggressive Elder Dragons, Teostra are highly feared. It is not advised to go out into the Desert, Volcano, Swamp, or Tower when pairing with Lunastra, as the prospect of fighting both Lunastra and Teostra together is often considered suicidal.

A Teostra's Lair

Teostra's lair in high mountains or volcanoes, dwelling in caverns underground in the desert, or within the deep halls of abandoned mines and dwarven strongholds. Caves with volcanic or geothermal activity are the most highly prized teostra's lair, creating hazards that hinder intruders and letting searing heat and volcanic gases wash over a teostra as it sleeps. On rare occasions they can be seen living in more temperate areas such as a swamp or ancient forest, changing the area around it to suit its needs.

A teostra's lair is sometimes confused with the a red dragon's lair due to both of them mainly preferring areas with intense heat. On many occasions a teostra will attempt to take a red dragon's lair for its own, either by killing the red dragon or causing it to flee while gravely injured, leaving its horde of treasure behind. The teostra will guard this horde, mainly because it now belongs to him, but will typically not add to its treasure, being more concerned with intruders than riches.

A teostra encountered in its lair has a challenge rating of 14 (11,500 XP).

LAIR ACTIONS

On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), the teostra takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects; the teostra can't use the same effect two rounds in a row:

• A tremor causes the ground to crack and magma to bubble up in a 60-foot radius centered the teostra. That area becomes difficult terrain, and each creature there must succeed on a DC 15 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.
• Magma erupts from a point on the ground within 120 feet of the teostra, The magma erupts in a 120-foot long, a 20-foot-high, 5-foot-wide line. Each creature in that line must make a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw, taking 11 (3d6) fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. Flammable objects in the line that aren't being worn or carried ignite.
• Volcanic gases form a cloud in a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on a point the teostra can see within 120 feet of it. The sphere spreads around corners, and its area is lightly obscured. It lasts until initiative count 20 on the next round. Each creature that starts its turn in the cloud must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned until the end of its turn. While poisoned in this way, a creature is incapacitated.

Fire Aura. At the start of each of the teostra's turns, each creature within 5 feet of it takes 3 (1d6) fire damage, and flammable objects in the aura that aren't being worn or carried ignite. A creature that touches the teostra or hits it with a melee attack while within 5 feet of it takes 3 (1d6) fire damage.

Explosive Cloud. At the start of the teostra's turn, it beats its wings and four clouds of explosive powder appear in unoccupied 5-foot cubes of air within 60 feet of the teostra. Additionally every 15 feet the teostra moves, it leaves a cloud of explosive powder in a 5-foot cube. The clouds disperse after detonation, until a wind of moderate or greater speed (at least 10 miles per hour) disperses it, or when the teostra dies.

As a Bonus action, the teostra can move up to two of these clouds 10 feet in any direction.

Standing Leap. The teostra's long jump is up to 30 feet and its high jump is up to 15 feet, with or without a running start.

Actions

Multiattack. The teostra makes three attacks; two claw attacks and one bite or one tail attack.

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack. +11 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit 19 (3d8 + 6) piercing damage.

Claws. Melee Weapon Attack. +11 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit 16 (3d6 + 6) slashing damage.

Tail. Melee Weapon Attack. +11 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit 19 (3d8 + 6) bludgeoning damage. On hit, the target must make a DC 19 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.

Fire Breath (Recharge 5-6). The teostra exhales fire in a 60-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 20 Dexterity saving throw, taking 32 (9d6) fire damage on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one.

Deadly Leap. If the teostra jumps at least 15 feet as part of its movement, it can then use this action to land on its feet in a space that contains one or more other creatures. Each of those creatures must succeed on a DC 19 Strength or Dexterity saving throw (target's choice) or be knocked prone and take 33 (6d8 + 6) bludgeoning damage. On a successful save, the creature takes only half the damage, isn't knocked prone, and is pushed 5 feet out of the teostra's space into an unoccupied space of the creature's choice. If no unoccupied space is with in range, the creature instead falls prone in the teostra's space.

Supernova. The teostra beats its wings rising 20 feet into the air and releases a large burst of fire all around it. Each creature within 25 foot radius of the teostra must succeed on a DC 20 Dexterity saving throw, taking 45 (10d8) fire damage and are pushed back 10 feet on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one and not pushed back.

Legendary Actions

The teostra can take 2 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action option can be used at a time and only at the end of another creatures turn. The teostra regains spent legendary actions at the start of its turn.

Move. The teostra moves up to its speed without provoking opportunity attacks.

Attack. The teostra makes a bite attack.

Detonate (Costs 2 Actions). All Explosive Clouds detonate and burst into flames. Each creature within 10-feet of a explosive cloud must make a DC 17 Dexterity saving throw, taking 22 (4d10) fire damage on a failed save or half as much on a successful one. If a creature is within range of more than one explosive cloud, they take an additional 22 (4d10) fire damage for each additional cloud.

Chameleos

Chameleos's body is covered by a purple and white hide, and its head ends with a protruding horn at the tip of its nose. Its eyes are similar to a real life chameleon's; large and orb-like, with the ability to control eye movement individually. The long and elastic tongue can extend to grasp and steal items from a distance. Its wings are a purple color with a grayish white membrane, and are used for flight and controlling the direction of its poison fog. Chameleos's large tail is reminiscent of a leaf and has a curled, spiraling tip.

Chameleos are different from other Elder Dragons, as they are not nearly as "elegant" in their appearance as other Elder Dragon species. Chameleos have a number of biological adaptations that make them extremely unique. Most notably is the Chameleos's trademark camouflage mechanism. Each species of Chameleos has a different way of camouflaging itself. 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. Some Chameleos use special ore to enable their camouflage. Chameleos have independently moving eyeballs that protrude from the sides of its head to create a wider field of vision. Chameleos have several nasty defenses should it ever come under attack. They possess an extremely strong poison, which can be released from its mouth at will and often whipped into a thick cloud by the dragon's wings. Some Chameleos also possess an extra vocal cord paralysis poison in their acid globs. Finally, it can exhale large amounts of mist to further hinder the vision of hunters, allowing it to either make a swift getaway or launch a surprise attack with ease.

Chameleos are ambush hunters, waiting patiently for prey to pass by while they blend perfectly into their surroundings. Chameleos can and will eat almost anything, and can use different tactics to take down varying sizes of prey. Should its prey be a Neopteron such as a Vespoid, Altaroth, Bnahabra, or Konchu it will simply snatch it out of the air using its long sticky tongue. If it is a supply camp, it'll steal with each opportunity it gets.

Chameleos are very intelligent creatures. They will wait patiently at a spot of importance such as a water source or natural crossroads, waiting for prey to pass by. Chameleos are well known for stealing items from adventurers. Chameleos do this in order for the adventurers to lose motivation in hunting them down.

A Chameleos's Lair

The Forest-Dwelling Chameleos very rarely share their territory with other dragons. With its ability to become invisible at will, it steals the treasures from anything that attempts to invade and take over. A chameleos lair is sometimes confused with the a green dragon's lair due to both of them having a perpetual fog hanging in the air, the chameleos carrying a sweeter whiff of its poison mist. Tiny mushrooms, known has toadstool, litter the ground releasing poisonous spores at the slightest touch. Growing bigger as you deeper into the forest.

At the center of the forest, the chameleos chooses a grove typically covered in mushrooms. The tree lining the grove are sparse, allowing the chameleos to move freely in and out. A hole has been dug out in the middle and has been filled with the treasures the chameleos has gathered from lost folk, adventurers, and anything else it has stolen in its travels

LAIR ACTIONS

On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), the chameleos takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects; the dragon can't use the same effect two rounds in a row:

• The Chameleos exhales a thick fog from its lungs filling the area. The fog is a 60-foot-radius, 30-foot-high cylinder centered on the chameleos, spreads around corners, and its area is heavily obscured. The fog lasts for 1 minute, until a wind of moderate or greater speed (at least 10 miles per hour) disperses it, or when the chameleos dies. While the chameleos remains in this fog, it can use its Invisible Passage as a free action at the end of its turn
• Poisonous mist billows around one creature the chameleos can see within 120 feet of it. The creature must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned until initiative count 20 on the next round.
• Chameleos causes 8 small poisonous mushrooms to grow in unoccupied spaces that it chooses within the lair. While the mushrooms are heavily obscured they are considered invisible. A creature that enters a space that the poisonous mushrooms occupy must make a DC 17 Constitution saving throw, taking 11 (3d6) poison damage and become poisoned for 1 minute on a failed save, or half as much damage and are not poisoned on a successful one. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the poison on itself on a success.

Elder Sight. Magical Darkness doesn't impede the chameleos's darkvision.

Legendary Resistance (3/Day). If the chameleos fails a saving throw, it can choose to succeed instead.

Chameleon Skin. The chameleos has advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks made to hide.

Silent Step. While invisible, as a bonus action, the chameleos teleports up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space.

Actions

Multiattack. The chameleos makes three attacks: two with its horn and one with its tongue lash attack. It can replace any of these attacks with a poison spit attack.

Horn. Melee Weapon Attack. +10 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit 21 (3d10 + 5) piercing damage.

Tongue Lash. Melee Weapon Attack. +10 to hit, reach 15 ft., one target. Hit 15 (3d6 + 5) bludgeoning damage. On hit, if the target has an object in at least one hand, they must make a DC 15 Strength saving throw or have the object swallowed by the chameleos. If the chameleos takes 30 damage in one turn, it regurgitates all swallowed objects in an 5 foot area adjacent to it.

Poison Spit. Range Weapon Attack. +10 to hit, range 30/120 ft., one target. Hit 10 (3d6) poison damage. On hit, a poisonous cloud appears in a 5-foot-radius, 10-foot-high cylinder centered on the target that lasts for 24 hours or until strong wind disperses the cloud. On a miss, the cloud appears in an area adjacent to the target. A creature that starts its turn in the cloud or moves through it for the first time must make a DC 17 Constitution saving throw, taking 7 (2d6) poison damage and become poisoned on a failed save. On a successful save the creature takes half damage and is not poisoned.

Poison Mist(recharge 5-6). The chameleos exhales a poisonous mist in an 60-cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 17 Constitution saving throw, taking 54 (12d8) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The Mist lingers until the start of the chameleos next turn. A creature that starts its turn in the mist or move through it for the first time on a turn must make a DC 17 Constitution saving throw, taking 28(8d6) poison damage and become poisoned on a failed save. On a successful save the creature takes half damage and is not poisoned.

Invisible Passage. The chameleos magically turns invisible until it attacks or casts a spell, or until its concentration ends (as if concentrating on a spell). While invisible, the chameleos leaves no physical evidence of its passage, so it can be tracked only by magic.

Kushala Daora

Kushala Daora is a four legged Elder Dragon with a pair of widely spreading wings. Its skin is plated with metal that makes weapons bounce off without enough sharpness. Kushala Daora has numerous horns lining its head and sharp claws on each of its legs. Kushala Daora have the ability to manipulate strong winds, creating a wind barrier that surrounds itself. The wind barrier can knock a adventurer back, making the adventurer vulnerable to Kushala Daora's attacks. The wind barrier also makes it difficult for the adventurer to attack its body.

Kushala Daora are rare top predators, and fear almost nothing. However, it is occasionally threatened by the large, fast and aggressive Tigrex and the rare powerful Rajang. They can compete with other elder dragons, especially Chameleos in the Jungle. There are reports of Kushala Daora eating mineral deposits, this may show how they manage to have a metal rust-able skin. Kushala Daora possesses some of the largest wings of any monster. It uses these to sail effortlessly in the air. It can hover off the ground and blast hunters with wind.

It uses a special organ to produce its famous wind based-attacks and abilities. When hit with poison, its organ will be weak and its shield will disappear for a short period of time while fighting the toxins. Kushala Daora have tough, metal filled skin, but suffer from a severe weakness to poison, which can easily enter the bloodstream through cracks created in the skin. Kushala Daora must infrequently shed their trademark skin as they grow. This can easily be spotted as the once shining silver scales will rust over due to oxidation with air. The most well-known ability about Kushala Daora is the storms it summons. These storms can easily destroy whole regions, varying from region to region. Kushala Daora can cause sandstorms, hurricanes, and snowstorms though it is unknown how.

Some extra rare individuals have increased storm and wind-creating abilities. Such as creating multiple free-roaming tornadoes and wind tunnels under multiple targets all at once using its wings to control the wind flow, they are able to blow a breath that is both extremely strong and cold to the point of freezing the ground and water it has breathed on.

Wind Barrier. A barrier of strong wind surrounds the kushala daora in a 5-foot radius around it. The strong wind keeps fog, smoke, and other gases at bay. Small or smaller flying creatures or Objects can't pass through the barrier. Loose, lightweight materials brought into the barrier fly upward. Arrows, bolts, and other ordinary projectiles launched at the kushala daora are deflected upward and automatically miss. (Boulders hurled by Giants or siege engines, and similar projectiles, are unaffected.) Creatures in Gaseous Form can't pass through the barrier. When a Medium sized creature enters the Wind Barrier's area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, they must make a DC 19 Strength saving throw or be pushed back 10 feet. If a creature fails the saving throw by more than 5 they are also knocked prone.

Poison susceptibility. While poisoned, the kushala daora's Wind Barrier is deactivated, it must land on its next turn, and is unable to fly until the poisoned is removed. Once the poisoned condition is removed, the kushala daora's Wind Barrier once again takes effect.

Flyby. The kushala daora doesn't provoke opportunity attacks when it flies out of an enemy's reach.

Actions

Multiattack. The kushala daora makes two bite attacks.

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack. +11 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit 22 (3d10 + 6) piercing damage.

Barrage. The kushala daora rains the debris down to the ground in a 10-foot-radius, 20-foot-high cylinder centered on a point within 150 feet. Each creature in the cylinder must make a DC 16 Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 16 (3d10) bludgeoning damage and 16 (3d10) slashing damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Tornado (recharges after a long or short rest). The kushala daora conjures an tornado that lasts for 1 minute. The tornado is a 20-foot-radius, 60-foot-high spiraling cylinder of wind centered on a location within 100 feet of the kushala daora. This cylinder becomes difficult terrain for the duration, even for flying creatures. Unattended objects in this cylinder that are Large or smaller are pulled towards the center. When a creature enters the tornado's area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, it is struck by debris the tornado has picked up, and it must make a DC 19 Strength saving throw or taking 14 (4d6) bludgeoning damage plus 14 (4d6) slashing damage, they are pulled to the center of the cylinder, and are restrained on a failed save. On a successful save the creature takes half as much damage and they are not pulling into the center or restrained.

On each of the kushala daora's turns, it must use its bonus action to move the tornado 30 feet in any direction.

Wind Tunnel (recharge 5-6). The kushala daora blast of strong wind in a 90 foot line that is 10 feet wide. Each creature in the line must succeed on a DC 19 Strength saving throw, taking 49 (11d8) force damage and be pushed 15 feet away in a direction following the line on a failed save or half as much on a successful one and pushed away. Any creature in the line must spend 2 feet of movement for every 1 foot it moves when moving closer to the kushala daora. The wind tunnel disperses gas or vapor, and it extinguishes candles, torches, and similar unprotected flames in the area. It causes protected flames, such as those of lanterns, to dance wildly and has a 50 percent chance to extinguish them.

Legendary Actions

The kushala daora can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action option can be used at a time and only at the end of another creatures turn. The kushala daora regains spent legendary actions at the start of its turn.

Move. The kushala daora can move all dust devil up to 30 feet in any direction.

Bite Attack. The kushala daora makes a bite attack.

Dust Devils (Costs 2 Actions). The kushala daora chooses 3 unoccupied 5-foot cube within 60 feet of it. An elemental force that resembles a dust devil appears in the cube and lasts for 1 minute. Any creature that starts its turn within 5 feet of the dust devil must make a DC 19 Strength saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 9 (2d8) bludgeoning damage and is pushed 10 feet away. On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage and isn’t pushed.

If the dust devil moves over sand, dust, loose dirt, or small gravel, it sucks up the material and forms a 10-foot-radius cloud of debris around itself that lasts until the start of your next turn. The cloud heavily obscures its area.

Valphalk

Valphalk is a slender Elder Dragon covered in gleaming silver scales. Its most notable feature is its wings, which have fused into a trident-like structure. Its back is lined with fin-like projections. Its head has a small crest and its eyes are blue.

Valphalk is covered in reflective silver scales that give this monster its slim appearance. Like most other Elder Dragons, Valphalk has six limbs: four legs and a pair of wings. Unique to Valphalk are its trident shaped wings.The wings of the Valphalk are versatile and flexible being able to stretch the arm appendages to hit far-reaching targets, expanding its wings resembling a three-fingered claw for wider area of attack or closing the wings to make use of the blade-like tip on the frontal end of the wings that is commonly used with the stretching appendages as "jabs" akin to that of a spear for accurate attacks. On the ends of both of the wings are three openings that fire off energy produced via a special organ in its chest that sucks in the air before releasing it out through the wings as a form exhaust. This allows it to fly at outrageous speeds, making it the fastest flying monster known today. When flying at high speeds, it looks like a "red comet" in the sky, showing that at its highest speed no one can identify it easily.

Valphalk can also flip its wings in two different directions: Backwards; for flying at high speeds, and Forward; attacking foes from a distance by using the energy as projectiles. Valphalk's breathing methods are nearly identical to birds in a sense. The special organ in its chest is constantly glowing red and occasionally pulses whenever Valphalk decides to use it for certain actions, such as flying.

Valphalk are quite calm when not disturbed, but will turn extremely aggressive if they feel threatened in anyway. No matter the foe, Valphalk have a variety of ways of fighting off threats. This is the reason why it is sometimes called the Silver Wing of the Evil Star or Sky Comet Dragon. Though Valphalk are quite calm in the sky, they occasionally will mistakenly crash into objects in the air from their shocking flying speeds. These objects can be about the size of an Airship or even a Flying Wyvern.

Amatsumagatsuchi (Amatsu)

The Amatsumagatsuchi, Amatsu for short, have a unique body structure. The head itself is quite small, though it is adorned with massive golden horns, flanked by tendrils of flesh. Amatsu's body is largely pale white in color, and covered entirely in fins that stretch along all four limbs. From its back rise more pointed fins, whereas its underside is grey and scaled. because it flies through the air and spends no time on land, Amatsu has almost vestigial feet and small, nearly useless back legs. The front legs are bordered by more white fins. When angered, red veins stand out more prominently in its wing membranes, and when near death, its chest, horns and eyes shine with a faint golden luminescence.

The average size of an Amatsu is 3133.8cm. The Amatsu has a large number of fins and wings along its body, which contribute to its ability to fly smoothly through the air. Its horns are large compared to the size of its head, much closer to the size of the fins. These horns show that nothing will attack Amatsu due to its sheer power. Its forearms are long, they are slender and designed for flight, not for walking. The amount of webbing in its fins and wings makes the Amatsu seem larger than it actually is, as they billow out in the wind. Its actual body structure is very close to a Leviathan, long and curvy, with small back legs and a fairly large tail. Its control over storms surpasses even that of Kushala Daora, this power comes from a unique jade colored organ called the "Storm Vesicle".

This organ stores large amounts of water and is how Amatsu is able to produce its terrifying storms. Unlike Kushala Daora, its wind aura does not protect it from attacks; instead, it seems to be used more aggressively as a way of making its charging attacks more dangerous. Its most deadly form of attack is a massive beam of wind and water fired from its mouth; when the beam hits the ground, it releases a torrent of water on anything nearby the point of impact. Once a Amatsu dies, the storm it made will dissipate within seconds. Showing this unique hard jade colored organ has great power.

Living mainly in the sky and mountain tops, the Amatsu is a mainly passive Elder Dragon, but the frequency that it creates storms is dependent on its mood. It does not take kindly to anything invading its airspace, as shown when it shoots down an airship on a discovery mission. When truly angered, it does not calm down easily. It is also known to take claim of a resting ground for its territory going as far as chasing out predators as powerful as groups of Zinogre if it wants their home as its own.

Legendary Resistance (2/Day). If the amatsu fails a saving throw, it can choose to succeed instead.

Wind Barrier. A barrier of strong wind surrounds the amatsu in a 10-foot radius around it. The strong wind keeps fog, smoke, and other gases at bay. Small or smaller flying creatures or Objects can't pass through the barrier. Loose, lightweight materials brought into the barrier fly upward. Arrows, bolts, and other ordinary projectiles launched at the amatsu are deflected upward and automatically miss. (Magic arrows, boulders hurled by Giants or siege engines, and similar projectiles, are unaffected.) Creatures in Gaseous Form can't pass through the barrier.

Suppressed Power. The amatsu is unable to use its Grand Vortex Beam while it is above (90) half of its maximum hit points .

A creature that is pulled within 30 feet of the amatsu or is already within that range must make a DC 20 Strength saving throw or be thrown 130 feet straight up into the air on a failed save, or half as high on successful one. If a thrown target strikes a solid surface upon landing, the target takes 3 (1d6) bludgeoning damage for every 10 feet it fell.

Grand Vortex Beam (recharge 6). The amatsu exhales three high pressure beams of water in different directions in front of it. Each beam is a 60-foot line that is 5 feet wide. Each creature in a line must make a DC 20 Dexterity saving throw, taking 82 (15d10) cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Control Weather (1/day). The amatsu can alter the weather in a 6-mile radius centered on it. The amatsu doesn't need to be outdoors; otherwise the effect is identical to the control weather spell.

Legendary Actions

The amatsu can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action option can be used at a time and only at the end of another creatures turn. The amatsu regains spent legendary actions at the start of its turn.

Detect. The amatsu makes a Wisdom (Perception) Check.

Bite Attack. The amatsu makes a bite attack.

Whirlwind (Costs 3 Actions). The amatsu chooses 3 unoccupied 5-foot cube within 5 feet of it. An elemental force that resembles a dust devil appears in the cubes and they move in a straight line 60 feet away from the amatsu before dispersing. Each creature in one of the lines must make a DC 20 Strength saving throw, taking 18 (4d8) force damage on a failed save or half as much on a successful one.

Dalamadur

The Dalamadur has a snake-like face, with bright red eyes, numerous fangs, and many hook-like spikes along its body which start out clustered around its head and neck, and becoming more spread out along its long body, with a small cluster near the tip of its tail, which is topped with a pair of red barbs that it can rattle in a manner similar to rattlesnakes. Its has a pair of large clawed forearms, but the only remnant of hind legs it has are small spurs, similar to anacondas. Its chest has glowing vents, which huff steam. Its face and tail will also glow red when in its Raged state.

Dalamadur are quite aggressive in nature, willing to destroy adventurers at all cost. Dalamadur can easily destroy whole mountains with their coils and cause pieces of rumble to fall from them. For unknown reasons, large numbers of Dalamadur are known to raise from underground during certain times of the year.

Yama Tsukami

Yama Tsukami is an unusual Elder Dragon with an octopus-like body. It is covered in moss, algae, and other plant life, and boasts a set of four thick tentacles. In addition, it possesses two large whiskers and an oddly human-like set of teeth and gums. It produces gas within its body in order to keep itself afloat.

Yama Tsukami are constantly traveling through different areas in order to find suitable fertile land for them to feed on, even traveling over vast seas. Yama Tsukami is a dangerous monster that can potentially swallow a whole village or town. However 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. Though, most heavily forested areas are most at risk of getting eaten by a Yama Tsukami. Strangely around parts of a Great Forest, Yama Tsukami of different colors and sizes have been seen. Its theorized that they are either adults and juveniles, subspecies, or just environmental conditions. Most believe that it is due to environmental conditions that there are many different Yama Tsukami.

Yama Tsukami's most notable adoption is its ability to float with no obvious method of propulsion. From the large amounts of dirt and rotting flesh that a Yama Tsukami has swallowed, it all produces a gas inside its body that allows it to float in 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. The creature has four large tentacles that may serve as multipurpose appendages. These tentacles are light yet very slimy It could use these to snare prey, uproot plants, or anchor itself to landmasses or trees. At the end of these tentacles, there seem to be claws. It also uses them like whips when defending itself, crushing anything that tries to challenge it. Yama Tsukami also has a pair of large whiskers, which it uses as tentacles as well. Yama Tsukami has the parasitic Dragonwood and the mysterious Dragonmoss growing from its back along with trees and many different plants. The exact cause of this is its feeding on forest and on lakes along with its blood which is the nutrients for many different species of plants. Due to this, Yama Tsukami have become a "special" environment for some living things such as the Great Thunderbug. 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 being a "special" environment for them, they become quite different from the normal Great Thunderbugs and develop differently compared to them. They even seem to develop a bond with Yama Tsukami and will defend it from any potential threats. Yama Tsukami have incredibly long lifespans numbering in the thousands of years.

Gogmazios

Gogmazios is a massive Elder Dragon with a body structure similar in nature to that of Gore Magala and Shagaru Magala. It has a large, heavy head with red eyes and rows of sharp teeth. When it uses its Oil laser attack, a glowing pattern, reminiscent of a scowl, is present beneath its chin, giving it the semblance of a second face. Its wingarms feature membranes that almost completely retract when not in use, and its body is covered in thick, powerful scales, carapaces, and spines of an indigo colouration. Perhaps the most notable features of Gogmazios body are the ever-present covering of a sticky, tar-like substance which it uses to incapacitate prey. It is unknown where Gogmazios exactly lives but it is theorized by scholars that it comes from swamps along with some mountainous habitats.

Despite Gogmazios habitat being unknown, Gogmazios are known to feed sulfur, which can be found in gunpowder and explosives. This was discovered after one raided Dundroma's Weapon Warehouse for many years and was seen feeding on the explosives. From this it can be assumed that Gogmazios may also feed on ore though Gogmazios hasn't been seen interacting with other monsters so this is just a hypothesis by scholars.

Gogmazios aren't the most aggressive Elder Dragons, but certainly aren't harmless and will attack if threatened. Gogmazios are known to 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.

An adult Gogmazios is approximately 4920.5cm long and standing at a height at about 1708.5cm. Unlike most other Elder Dragons, Gogmazios has an extra pair of limbs that allow it to walk better and allow it to walk upright. From the large amounts of muscles found inside these limbs, Gogmazios is able to walk upright with very much ease and to battle some threats at close range. These extra pair of limbs even allow Gogmazios to fly with its powerful wings. 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 in the air to fly. Gogmazios don't fly easily and rarely ever fly. Gogmazios has oil circulating throughout its body, while some of the oil pours out of its body. The oil coming out of a Gogmazios is impurities, such as waste or sweat, from its skin due to its diet. The oil pours out from its chest and back, dripping onto the ground below it. This oil is very sticky, attaching to anything that it touches. Inside some of the oil is objects that were picked up by Gogmazios accidentally. These objects can be weapons, artifacts, arrows, and living organisms. Some of the oil has hardened on Gogmazios body, increasing the strength of its scales and shell, giving it better defense against potential threats. Also, found inside of its body and inside its extra limbs are special organs that allow it to produce heated fire. Gogmazios uses this fire as a tool to ignite the oil and to make its attacks deadlier than before. When greatly enraged, Gogmazios's body temperature will increase greatly, making the oil it produces ignite faster and heat up faster without much warning.

Kulve Taroth is an Elder Dragon that has a metallic coat that shines golden but is made up of a variety of metals and minerals that it uses to protect itself. It appears every so often to the surface and must be hunted quickly before it disappears into the depths of the earth again.

Kulve Taroth is unique among Elder Dragons in that does not interact with any monsters of any kind apart from the Gajalaka's that reside in the caves who mostly take pieces of her fallen metal coat for their own purposes. However considering her size, power, and speed it would be safe to assume she would be the top of the food chain along with most elder dragons. Curiously she seems to be utterly safe from the rabid hunger of the infamous Nergigante.

Even amongst Elder Dragons Kulve Taroth is a very passive aggressive monster, it will not attack until excessively provoked and once provoked it will not stop till it's aggressors are eliminated. Kulve Taroth once spotted will do all it can to escape conflict forcing hunters to retrack it again.

Nergigante

Like most other Elder Dragons, Nergigante possesses six limbs; four legs and two wings. On its head are two large horns resembling a bull.

Nergigante is able to regenerate at a rapid rate. When the spikes on its tail, arms, or back are broken, they'll immediately grow back. These spikes are white in color when they regrow, but will turn black if left to harden. Once these spikes have hardened, they will deal more damage to foes and repel attacks. These spikes will also be launched from Nergigante's body when it performs certain attacks, giving these attacks more range and making them more dangerous.

Nergigante is an extremely aggressive monster that'll continue to fight, even if it means harming its own body. It'll attack anything without hesitation, especially if a creature dares attack it. Nergigante is particularly ferocious towards other Elder Dragons, since it feeds on them.

Ceadeus

Ceadeus are giant sea dwelling Elder Dragons that have only been recently discovered. Older Ceadeus individuals are called Goldbeard Ceadeus. It is said that Ceadeus and Jhen Mohran share the same common ancestor.

Ceadeus is up to 5837.2cm in length. 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 under the depths 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. It is estimated a Ceadeus can hold its breath for about several months. Ceadeus has powerful fins and a tail fin designed for swimming in the sea with both power and grace. The horns of a Ceadeus never stop growing, and at times, the Elder Dragon will grind them against the sea floor, with enough force to produce earthquakes and tsunamis. It is believed that this behavior resulted in the destruction of an island on at least one occasion. Throughout their years, Ceadeus are able to use an organ called the Luminous Organ. This organ is used to help farm the algae it uses to breath. The luminous bacteria on its body reacts to the organ by reflecting the light.

The Ceadeus is known to be a rather peaceful creature until provoked. It won't take notice of adventurers until it is greatly damaged by them. If Ceadeus is provoked, it'll try to kill its enemy with its immense strength.

Jhen Mohran

Jhen Mohran is a giant Elder Dragon that swims within the sand. itfeeds very much like a baleen whale. It swallows large amounts of sand to filter in any type of nutrients found within the sands.

Jhen Mohran's main adaptation is its huge size. Jhen Mohran is up to 11161.9 cm, twenty percent of this length is its tusks. 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. 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. The expelled sand alone can cause a change in flow to the quicksand in the Great Desert. Occasionally, seasonal winds can catch the expelled sands and blow the sands in the direction of settlements, causing massive sandstorms. 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. If sand wasn't covering Jhen Mohran than it would be a beautiful blue color. By spending long periods in the sand, the ore has formed from be polished by the sands.

Jhen Mohran is a relatively calm creature, but has been known to retaliate against Desert/Dragon Ships if attacked as they see them as potential rivals. It takes little notice of hunters climbing on its back, and will only occasionally try to fling them off.

Behemoth

A powerful beast from another world. Its large horns and muscular frame defy nature. It is a ferocious beasts with regal, fluttering manes and roars violent enough to shake the earth itself. After rending foes with long claws and horns, they usually use their sharp teeth to deal the killing blow. Also known to use high-level magic, Behemoths are enemies of the top rank hunter.

Due to their great power, Behemoths usually attack alone, but occasionally attack in small groups of two or three. Behemoths use strong physical attacks and often counter attacks with an attack of their own. This is not their
only advantage, unlike most other Monsters, Behemoth
can cast spells. Hunters have reported seeing tornadoes
conjured from thin air under them, fire erupting from
solid stone below them, and large rocks
falling from the skies at extreme speeds.

Fatalis

In legend, it is said that all living things fear Fatalis, including other Elder Dragons, such as Teostra and Lao-Shan Lung. All monsters are said to try to avoid Fatalis at all costs, leading to some leaving areas altogether simply to avoid it.

The Fatalis is a powerful, unnatural beast. The Fatalis scales are extremely thick, while its shell is very durable. This is due to Fatalis melting the armor of its fallen prey on its shell, increasing its protection against some attacks. Fatalis doesn't seem to have very good eyesight, though this may be partially be due to what its eyes are made of. Creepily, a Fatalis's eyes are made out of crystals. How is unknown. Fatalis's wing membrane is flexible, but as hard as metal. From this, Fatalis's wings don't break very easily, allowing it to fly at high speeds and support itself as it becomes airborne. Even on the ground, Fatalis is able to walk on all fours and rush prey at shocking speeds with sheer power behind its bulk. The most powerful feature is its powerful fiery breath. This fire is some of the strongest fire breath out of all monsters and can kill most enemies almost instantly. Recent encounters have revealed that Fatalis possess control over fire on par with Teostra and Lunastra. Its fire breath extends well beyond the length and height of the already large dragon.

In some legends about the Fatalis, there is a legend known by some as the shifting scales of fate. This legend claims that the Second Coming of Fatalis is infinite. The Fatalis in this legend is quite different from the Fatalis seen in the other legends. This Fatalis is described to have six horns, a glowing blue chest, a short mane in between its spikes, bizarre fluids flowing throughout its body, and the ability to shift its scales from black, red, or white. Each set of scales is said to grant the fatalis different abilities and protection. The most well known of these skills are the Black Flame and Crimson Demons breath that are said to combine the elements Fire and Death together, Despite both being combined together with the same elements, Each breath has a different element that seems to overtake this Fatalis's body, allowing it to do things not seen in other legends. This Fatalis is said to be able to send monsters running with a single flap of its wings.

A creepy light coming from its eyes invites those it stares at into its dark depths. The fluids are said to have no exact weight. Its shell is impervious to strikes from weapons and has terrifying power inside of it, which could be unleashed at anytime. The scariest part about this legend is that not only is its strength far beyond the ones from the other legends, but its body shows signs of possible regenerative powers. This means that this Fatalis maybe able to regenerate after taking large amounts of damage, just like Dire Miralis can regenerate from its still beating heart. Thankfully, this legend hasn't been proven as of yet so the Guild has nothing to worry about.

One thing that all the legends share about Fatalis is its equipment. This equipment is much more than what it appears to be. When adventurers wear this monster's armor, they are known to disappear mysteriously without a trace or even die if the armor is worn for too long. Some who have worn the Fatalis's armor report having terrible nightmares, unsettling strength, and a feeling as if they were being possessed by something. They also report feeling a familiar pulse coming from the armor, a feeling as if their legs were taken from them. With some adventurers wearing the armor of the Black Flame, they report feeling as if their body was taken over while they were unconscious. It is said that this equipment might be alive, meaning that Fatalis might not truly be dead. In Pokke Village, a giant black blade embedded in the ice is known to regenerate days after being mined once, which supports this claim that Fatalis is still alive. Other Fatalis weapons also seem to suggest that Fatalis is still alive in some form. Some weapons despair eat at the user's hands while other weapons, when held, have hideous abyssal screams coming from them. Some weapons even have a thirst for blood. From this, it is said that it's best to not to use any equipment from Fatalis in any form at all.

Fatalis is extremely hostile to all living things. It threatens the very existence of not only the Castle Schrade, but the very world around it. In legend, it is said Fatalis could scorch the whole world with its flames in a few days, burning all lands to a crisp. Due to this, the Guild will secretly send adventurers to hunt it down to prevent public panic. However, most adventurers never return. Due to many incidents surrounding Schrade Kingdom and Fatalis, the Adventurer'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.

Lao-Shan Lung

An Elder Dragon, albeit a gigantic specimen. Lao-Shan Lung was once considered the largest monster in the world until recently. Lao-Shan Lung specializes in feeding on different types of ore and minerals, no matter what region it goes to. Though its size surpasses most other species, it has one natural predator that is considered a myth. That predator is Fatalis.

Huge. One of the largest dragons ever documented, rivaled only by colossi such as Ceadeus, Dalamadur, Laviente, Jhen Mohran and Zorah Magdaros. Lao-Shan Lungs are very well armored, although their bellies are vulnerable, as are their heads. Their shells only thicken as the time passes by. A Lao-Shan Lung shell coloration is determined by the kind of mineral particles that float in the atmosphere and get attached to its body as the dragon ages: the ones who dwell in the mountains are colored red because of the abundance of iron particles, while the ones that live near the Volcanic Belt are mostly grey due to ash. Like most dragons, their roar is very loud and can affect adventurers a good distance away. Because of their size, getting stepped on or whipped by the tail is very damaging or possibly fatal if the adventurer's armor is low grade.

Extremely docile even when facing multiple foes. They appear to care little about adventurers, as they mainly ignore them on their way to the town fortress. That said, they will put in a great deal of effort to break the fort rather than simply run away. Despite their low aggression, their immense size poses a tremendous risk to adventurers in their general vicinity.
