Goksuregis

Goksuregis is a monstrous snake wyvern that was first discovered in the New World.

Physiology
Goksuregis feature a cobra-like head with a bulky bronze-coloured body: its only limbs are its wings that it rarely uses for flying: pursuing more uses in digging instead. Widely described as a scaled juggernaut.

Behavior
Berserk, monstrous snake wyverns that attack anything that catch their eyes. Often have been seen getting involved in fights between Diablos: attempting to kill both of them.

Abilities
A lot of its attacks consist of slithering through the trees and then striking at fast speeds with either bites, tail whips, or whacks. Its fangs contain a venom that is potently on par with the venom of an Espinas shell: thus can paralyse and poison the hunter if hit. They make very good use of the wings they retain with various aerial attacks at theri disposal.

Role in the Food Chain
Minimal - Extremely Low - Low - Average - High - (Extremely High) - Apex - Legend

Main Prey: Apceros, Young Diablos, Monoblos

Arch-Rivals: Diablos

Habitat Range
Found in arid regions with an abundance of flat landscape, this includes the Wildspire Waste and the Dusty Badlands. Although its been sighted in the Town Ruins and the Crash Site as-well.

Ecological Niche
A brutal nemesis to anything that it catches sight of: attacking with bites that retain poison, defense-destroying saliva that can corrode hard armour, Fair agility within the sands it burrows through and physical brutality that can rival a Diablos. These attributes allow it to even match against apex monsters such as the forementioned Diablos.

Biological Adaptations
It is large and bulky in size compared to its closely the related cousin: the Ternaagis: it sacrifices land agility and long-term flight for physical strength. It also likes to rely on burrowing under the sand, whether its to travel, ambush prey or surprise foes.
