Anjananth:
Picture:
Abilities: Anjanath has powerful jaws that allow it to rip apart foes, along with a powerful nose used for smelling out prey. It also has the ability to breathe fire from its mouth utilizing an organ in its throat. Anjanath is a relentless predator that will chase down anything that dares attack them. Once they've been provoked, Anjanath won't let an enemy get away easily. When enraged, Anjanath will breathe heavily and reveal its nostrils. It will also occasionally flash small fins from its back. Anjanath's head and legs can be wounded, the legs becoming more susceptible to damage when broken. Its tail can also be severed.
Nergi/Nergigante
Picture:
Abilities:
After its health has reached a certain threshold, Nergigante will enter a "second stage" in which it will start using more advanced attack moves (ground punch from airborne, etc) and gain a slight increase in speed and damage. This is signified by a roar animation when Nergigante stays on all four, stretches its wings and raises his head skyward roaring with the camera panning out from its usual position. Also, some of Nergigante's attacks when in this state will be followed by flying spikes. These spikes deal a serious amount of damage.
Nergigante is an extremely aggressive monster that will 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. Nergigante actively hunts and feeds on Elder Dragons to gain massive amounts of energy. Because of this, it will get into turf wars with the Elder Dragons Kushala Daora, Teostra, and Lunastra. Nergigante doesn't rely on elemental prowess, however. It chooses to overwhelm its opponents and prey through sheer aggression and brute force.
Palico:
Picture:
Description: Palicoes are a cat-like combat companion in Monster Hunter World. As hunters' reliable comrades out in the field, they specialize in a variety of offensive, defensive, and restorative support abilities. The hunter's Palico joins the Fifth Fleet with pride, as much a bonafide member of the Commission as any other hunter.
Teostra
Picture
Abilities:
Teostra has some basic physical attacks such as charges, bites, tail swipes, claw swipes and dive bombs. But the real danger comes from two things. Teostra is capable of breathing out large flamethrower-like streams of fire, and generating an aura of flame around himself which will burn away at those who get too close. Alongside this Teostra possess mass quantities of explosive powder made from its own scales, with just a gnash of its teeth it can create sparks and trigger explosions in mass, it can even cover itself in the powder to help spread it more easily, or ignite it all at once for a massive explosive fittingly known as the Supernova. Teostra can inflict Fireblight due to covering itself in flames. It can also heat up patches of ground when enraged so that walking on this ground will inflict Fireblight.
Behavior
Teostra is a very aggressive monster. It will show dominance to anything that it encounters. Unlike Lunastra, who normally gives warnings to get out of its territory, Teostra will ruthlessly attack intruders until they are dead, even chasing them out of its normal territory. Although older specimens of Teostra have been observed to be notably calmer, it still will only tolerate the presence of intruders in its territory for so long.
Vaal Hazak
Picture:
Behavior and Abilities
This dragon lives a solitary lifestyle and does not allow other monsters to encroach upon its territory. While it may not always react to the presence of a hunter, it will immediately become aggressive with any large monster it encounters. It is known to bury itself in the piles of bones which litter the environment. Vaal Hazak can collapse, and if left alone while it does so, it will charge up Effluvium for a powerful attack. This will always leave behind some Tainted Flesh. Vaal Hazak outclasses Odogaron in Turf Wars. Interestingly enough, despite having wings, Vaal Hazak will not fly unless it is mounted in which it is shown to have just as much aerial mobility as the Kushala Daora.
Vaal Hazak is capable of covering its body in a mysterious, life-sapping miasma, known as the Effluvium. As the substance builds up in the body of its victim, it can cause severe weakening of physical strength and resilience. The monster is able to release this miasma more violently by spewing a concentrated stream from its mouth or spreading it around a large area as a noxious cloud. Vaal Hazak also possesses the ability to gather the Effluvium from affected creatures and hunters back into its body, healing itself and killing the victim in the process. If a hunter is covered in Effluvium and Vaal Hazak does its life-draining attack on them, it's best to eat a Nulberry as quick as possible to stop the process. Despite its size, its lithe nature allows it to move around at high speeds and even leap considerable distances at prey.
Nargacuga
Picture.
It has black scales, black fur and nightmarish red eyes, giving it the look and style of a predatory black panther. Its dark, feral appearance suggests that it may mainly be a nocturnal predator. This wyvern has been sighted within the Great Forest at both night and daytime, the Jungle, and also the Old Swamp.
When it's in Rage Mode, its eyes glow bright red and leave a trail of reddish lines when Nargacuga moves. Also, its tail erects large spikes which can be flung and linked up with its attacks for devastating hits. Their vertebrae and tail muscles are extremely flexible, making the tail of Nargacuga also prehensile. Its tail is also its most powerful weapon. The scales at the end of the tail can also be shaken to produce rattling sounds similar to that of a rattlesnake.
Nargacuga has the ability to attack with almost every part of its body, mainly its bladed wings and its spiked tail. Its head can be used for biting, similar to Tigrex.
Its bladed wings are used almost for the entire battle and deal high damage. Its tail tip, which can be cut with a white bar of sharpness or above, is extremely dangerous. When in Rage Mode its tail spikes will protrude until it gets out of it (Although they will protrude when it uses tail slams and it shoots tail spikes). Nargacuga also has extremely strong muscles that let it jump long distances and tall heights at high speed.
Sub species Mutagen: Lucent Nargacuga
Known as the Moon Swift Wyvern, Lucent Nargacuga has the ability to turn invisible, and perform a double tail slam like its green relative. It can also extend its spikes by shaking its tail, even when not enraged. While in this mode, all of its tail attacks cause venomous spikes to fly out.
Fatalis
Fatalis resembles a traditional western dragon, with a long, serpentine neck and tail, along with a pair of large, yet muscular wings. Its body is covered in rigid black scales and lined with white spines along its back. Its head features four backwards-facing horns and rows of enlarged teeth and fin-like ears. Like many other monsters, Fatalis has a pale underbelly, and like most other Elder Dragons, it possesses six limbs. Its forelimbs are surprisingly thin, belying immense strength.
Abilities
Fatalis is an extremely powerful monster, able to wipe out entire hunting parties with relative ease. Its primary weaponry lies in its flame breath, fabled to have reduced a kingdom to ashes within a single night, which can be utilized to produce either a stream of fire or explosive projectiles. Fatalis is also able to release a cloud of flammable dust and set it alight, similar to Teostra, and it is known to use its whip-like tail and powerful, bone-crushing jaws to defend itself from nearby attackers.
Interestingly, the massive Black Blade located within a cave in Pokke Village has been noted to regenerate after Fatalis materials are mined from it.
