Termitaur Queen

Termitaur Queen are Neopterons introduced in Monster Hunter Origins.

Physiology
Termitaur Queen are much larger than their subordinates and king. Their head and thorax are brown in color while their abdomen is pale yellow and drastically swollen, with each segment of the abdomen sporting a dark brown plate on top and on the bottom. Despite their size, their thick legs are capable of carrying around their engorged bodies but they move rather slow as a result.

Abilities
Similar to Worker Termitaur, Termitaur Queen spit a glue-like substance that slows down foes. This glue dries rather quickly, so Termitaur Queen are known to construct walls out of the glue for protection. They can also use their massive bodies to crush smaller enemies. Termitaur Queen will spawn young Termitaur during a fight to aid her in combat. Termitaur Queen can also produce pheromones that will summon her Termitaur King mate.

Ecological Niche
Termitaur Queen eat whatever their Workers gather for them. This includes dead plant material and occasionally carrion.

Biological Adaptations
Termitaur Queen are roughly twice the size of Termitaur King. This is mostly due to their swollen abdomens. The abdomens possess tough plates on the segments which protect it from damage. Like their Workers, Termitaur Queen spit a glue-like fluid that dries quickly, adhering foes to the ground or wall. Termitaur Queen are also known to construct walls out of the glue for further protection. They can also use their massive bodies to crush smaller enemies. Similar to Gigginox, Termitaur Queen will spawn young Termitaur during a fight to aid her in combat. Termitaur Queen can also produce pheromones that will summon her Termitaur King mate, akin to a Seltas Queen emitting pheromones to attract Seltas.

Behavior
Termitaur Queen spend the majority of their lives in their nests, specifically in a chamber made just for them.
