Zenith Congalala

Zenith Congalala is an immensely powerful variant of Congalala whose developed parts are its rear, which has become notably large and rigid over the years, and stomach, which stores the contents of its meals and allows it to use a wide array of status effects at any time. To scare foes away, it has styled its hair to resemble a gigantic afro, and has painted its face in a way that makes it resemble a clown's.

Physiology
Zenith Congalala greatly resembles its vanilla counterpart, but also has many changes to set itself apart from it. Its face resembles a clown's, being chalk-white with ruby-red lips, cheeks, and circles around the eyes, and it has a large, lime-green afro with a yellow patch in the middle instead of a small comb. Its fur is magenta instead of pale pink, and it has a beard like Emerald Congalala's instead of a goatee. Its claws are a lot longer and thicker, allowing for stronger blows. Its most notable feature is its buttocks, which are much larger than an ordinary individual's, covered in tough plating, and are frequently inflamed. It is also considerably bigger and fatter than an ordinary Congalala.

Ecology
Like Congalala, Zenith Congalala is an omnivore, but unlike its ordinary counterpart, it does not lead smaller troops into battle, for its overwhelming stench is so potent that the smaller apes go into a state of shock and drop dead upon smelling it. A nomad by nature, it travels from location to location in search of food, and is not picky about what it eats, consuming anything that looks palatable. Its claws are notably longer and thicker, making them more well-suited for combat and climbing, and its stomach can hold onto waste products emitted from decomposed food for longer periods of time in addition to secreting enzymes that strengthen said waste, allowing it to use them as effective weapons and inflict status effects without needing to eat first. Its buttocks have become considerably larger and developed a rigid, armour-like plating over them due to a mutation, and it can use said buttocks to its advantage, using them to crush the skulls of foes who attack it from behind, similar to a wombat, and should they survive the crushing, their weight and awful smell allow them to finish the job with ease. To ensure that foes will keep their distance from it, it has styled its comb to resemble a giant afro, making it appear taller, and has covered its face in berry juices to make itself look clown-like, for many creatures, human or monster, are unnerved by the entertainers. Due to immense pressure built up in their guts, their farts and burps are also much more potent, being able to send smaller creatures flying away in a single blow.

Behavior
Zenith Congalala is a curious creature, exploring areas that tickle its fancy and investigating anything new to it. It is also quite aggressive to anything that disrupts its feeding or startles it, bombarding them with a mix of claw swipes, farts, burps, and dung tosses.

Abilities
Similar to Frenzied Congalala, Zenith Congalala can use a wide array of status effects without needing to eat first, and in addition, the effects of its farts and burps are much more powerful than a regular Congalala's. Its longer, thicker claws can inflict more powerful blows, and its large, plated buttocks can be used as an effective bludgeon, crushing the bones of those caught underneath them and suffocating them. It can produce a lot more dung than a regular Congalala, to the point of being able to shoot out large bombs of dung, and its burps and farts are a lot more pressurized, being able to knock hunters across the area. When angered, it can unleash massive farts whose effects are similar to a miniature nuke, creating a giant mushroom cloud and filling the whole map with a Soiled-inducing stench for 30 seconds.

Habitat
Zenith Congalala can be found in the Jungle, Flower Field, and Fortress Ruins.

Attacks
Zenith Congalala has the same attacks as the standard species and its Hardcore variant, except its versions do more damage and have more range. Its breath attacks can randomly inflict Soiled, Corrupted Poison, Lingering Paralysis, Sound Asleep, or Extreme Fireblight, while its fart attacks can inflict either Soiled or Extreme Blastblight, but like with the original species, these effects can be determined by looking at the attacks' colourations. Its tremor-inducing attacks also release stronger tremors that require Zenith/Dragon Tremor Res to negate. That said, it has some moves of its own.

G200-400

Face Grind

Zenith Congalala stands up on its hind legs, then uses a short-ranged pounce. This attack deals medium damage and enacts a pin. Once the hunter is pinned, it will sit on their face and repeatedly rock its butt back and forth while farting, dealing low-medium damage that gradually turns into high damage and inflicting Soiled. If the hunter does not escape in time, it will unleash a bigger fart, which deals high damage and inflicts Soiled.

Butt Wipe

Zenith Congalala does a grabbing motion with its tail. This attack deals low-medium damage and enacts a pin. Once the hunter is pinned, it will hold the hunter in its tail, then repeatedly wipe its butt with them, inflicting Soiled. Once it is done wiping, it will throw the hunter away, dealing medium damage. Unlike the Face Grind, the pin enacted by this attack cannot be escaped by using Dung Bombs.

Twerk

Zenith Congalala turns its back to the hunter, bends down, then twerks at them three times. Each shake of its butt deals medium-high damage. It will often use this attack as a taunt if it knocks a hunter down. When enraged, it will sometimes fart while shaking its butt, with the fart dealing medium damage and inflicting either Soiled (brown fart) or Extreme Blastblight (red-orange fart).

Flying Booty Crush

Zenith Congalala rears itself up, then does a long jump towards the hunter with its plated butt pointed at them. This attack deals high damage and has wind effects that require Dragon Wind Breaker to negate.

Ground Pound

Zenith Congalala stores in energy, jumps high into the air, then falls back down to the ground, slamming its butt on the ground and releasing a large fart in the process. This attack deals high damage and inflicts Soiled (brown fart) or Extreme Blastblight (red-orange fart), and also has tremor effects that require Zenith/Dragon Tremor Res to negate.

Fart Propulsion

Similar to Thirsty Pariapuria, Zenith Congalala propels itself towards the hunter with a fart. This attack deals high damage and sends the hunter flying across the area, and contact with the fart deals medium-high damage and inflicts Soiled (brown fart) or Extreme Blastblight (red-orange fart). The body also releases wind effects that require Dragon Wind Breaker to negate.

Trivia

 * Zenith Congalala's rear will deflect any attacks not boosted by the Mind's Eye skill.
 * Credit for the design of the rear, the face, and the afro go to TheElusiveOne/ElusiveSeeker.
 * Zenith Congalala can use the Sonic Fart outside of exhaustion, and its version of it requires Super High-Grade Earplugs to negate.
 * When exhausted, the range of Zenith Congalala's breath and fart attacks will be greatly reduced. It can recover stamina by eating mushrooms, bones, ore, or dropped meats.
