Aurora: Aurora is a hybrid element which consists of Aether (125%) and Ice (125%). It causes a blight named Aurorablight which not only combines the effects of Severe Aetherblight and Severe Iceblight, but also makes the one affected more likely to get targeted by monsters. It's signified by an aurora effect around the hunter.

Aurora is meant to not be the most common of elements as not only is it a hybrid element, but it also consists of Aether which, like Dragon, is meant to be one of the rarer elements. It would only be used by large monsters as they would possess the organs required, be it for the separate elements or their own unique way of creating the element. Also, small monsters wouldn't be capable of taking the strain of using the element.

Aurora can be made through the use of organs for the separate elements that make up Aurora or other special ways. Some monsters would possess organs that could create the element in itself while others would need to combine it for example. The ailment caused by the element, Aurorablight, combines the effects of Severe Aetherblight and Severe Iceblight while also making the one affected by it more likely to get targeted by monsters. It can be cured through the usage of an item called Shade Paste which is made by combining Shadeshrooms and Nulberries. Shadeshrooms can be found alongside other mushrooms in gathering spots in several areas. The item would have a special animation which would involve the hunter quickly rubbing the paste onto themselves. This animation would be just as quick as eating Nulberries. The idea for the element came from my adoption of the monster Vermeledora which is said to have an unknown element. Due to it being associated with the northern light, I wanted to give it an actual element that goes with its theme. The name "Aurora" is another name given to the northern lights.

I currently have two monsters which could use the element, but I could surely use it for more monsters in the future yet it won't be too common as it has already been stated to not be a very common element.

There's currently no icon for the element.
