Habitat
Saitablo's are can be found anywhere but they are most commonly found in very hot or very cold places

Food Chain
Saitablo's are powerful monsters and usually they can only be beaten by other elder dragons/experienced hunters. There stocky build helps them defend against elders like Nergigante(they can't really overpower Nergigante but they can stop it in it's tracks).

Biological Adaption
Saitablo's have evolved the ability to produce a suffocating heat from their scales from within a core next to their heart. They have also evolved a heavy build to defend themselves against elder dragons like Nergigante. They have also developed an ability that allows them to dislocate scales and drop them on the ground similarly to Bazelguese but unlike Bazelguese they don't explode instead they give of a suffocating heat. It is belived(but not confirmed)that they may be a distant relative of Bazelguese.

Behavior
Saitablo's aren't particularly violent in fact they rarely attack human settlements, the reason they aren't violent is that most creatures die from thirst, sunstroke or just flat out burns when they inhabit a place, even creatures and plants that are immune to the fire element are effected by this. Despite this wherever they go they cause destruction in their wake because of the intense heat that radiates off of their scales

Cutscene

 * Location: Tower Summit


 * Synopsis: When the hunter enters the tower they don't see anything besides a red scale buried in the ground. As they go towards the scale it begins to glow, they go down to grab it but they then jump back as a fire ball comes their way. As they look up they see a silver and crimson dragon up in the sky, It's the Elder Dragon they were supposed to hunt a Saitablo. The Saitablo launches itself at the hunter and the hunters dodges out of the way only to touch the scale and be burned by it. You start out the fight with fireblight(you can get rid of it with one roll).
