Lunecra

Lunecra (lu-NEK-ra) is a nocturnal flying wyvern found in forested areas.

Physiology
Lunecra is mostly black, having a black exoskeleton, greenish-gray skin, and spots of purple bioluminescence lining the plates of its exoskeleton, as well as glowing purple wing membranes. It is a flying wyvern, about the same size as a Seregios. It is rather insectoid in nature, similar to Astalos, so it has green blood. Lunecra's head has a wide, flat, oval structure on the top, where its bioluminescence forms a crude outline of a skull's eyes and teeth. This along with its bright wing scales is used to potentially frighten off or intimidate the larger monsters that it's not powerful enough to fight off. Its tail ends in a pinecone-like structure made of chunks of its exoskeleton that form as it continually molts. These bits of exoskeleton form loosely-connected spikes that contain an anesthetic agent found in its skin, and when the tail is swung hard enough, these spikes will detach and potentially bury themselves in victims. In addition to that, its wings are covered scales like a butterfly's, and when it flies these scales will occasionally come off in clouds, with those clouds blinding victims that get caught in them.

Behavior
Lunecra are solitary, nocturnal hunters that often try to target monsters much larger than themselves. Despite being relatively fragile, Lunecra have a fighting chance at stopping more powerful creatures because they can blind monsters as well as put them to sleep with the spikes it flings off of its tail before going in for close-range attacks.

Placement In Food Chain
Lunecra places near the middle of the food chain.

Behavior Towards Other Monsters
Lunecra is especially passive during the day, but at night when it hunts it will try to eat anything that moves, especially larger monsters.

Tracks
Leaves behind bits of its wing scales called Powdery Scales, as well as Discarded Spikes, spikes embedded in the ground that have come off its tail as it swung it.

Specific Locale Interactions
None

Special Behaviors
If another large monster appears in the area, Lunecra will immediately shift focus off of the hunter and attack the intruder. Being bold yet fragile, Lunecra will stop fighting the monster if it receives a certain amount of damage and flee the area.

Cutscenes
None

Abilities
It can fly very agilely between trees as a result of its relatively small wing size, enabling it to perform various flying hit-and-run attacks. It can exude clouds of scales from its wings that cause Blindness.
