The Fire Wyvern Rathalos (リオレウス, rioreusu) is a flying wyvern introduced in the original Monster Hunter.
Physiology and Abilities
Rathalos are large flying wyverns characterized by their red shells adorned with black markings. Their large wings possess a strong membrane with fiery dark marks coming from the wing arm. The tail-tip is noticeably wider than the rest of the tail, and is used as a club.
The talons of a Rathalos can secrete a powerful toxin capable of disorienting large animals, while their developed flame sac allows them to spit large fireballs.
Rathalos are the male part of a sexually dimorphic species, and are often seen alongside their female counterpart, Rathian.
