Meraze are a part of the Flying Wyvern class.

Habitat Range
Meraze inhabit the Ancient Forest, Desert, Dunes, Everwood, Forest and Hills, Great Forest, Jungle, Sandy Plains, Volcanic Hollow, and the Volcano.

Ecological Niche
These wyverns are powerful predators and will readily prey upon whatever creature they come across, such as Herbivores, lesser wyverns, particularly bird wyverns such as Jaggi, Velociprey and their alpha forms or pelagus such as Bullfango. The only major competition that Meraze have are other predators such as Rathalos, Rathian, Seregios, Tigrex, Nargacuga, Gore Magala, Brachydios, Deviljho, Rajang, Zinogre, Agnaktor, Lavasioth, and Elder Dragons.

Biological Adaptations
Meraze possess control over fire on par with Teostra, Lunastra, and even Fatalis. Its fire breath extends beyond the length and height of the Wyvern. Meraze can generate flaming projectiles from its mouth, commonly seen releasing multiple blasts at once. In addition, it is capable of charging up and releasing a more potent fire blast which can ignite a swath of ground. Meraze is best known for its ability to create a tornado of fire. This is how it earned its title Fire Devil Wyvern. It is said that the crystalline organ on a Meraze's chest is what gives the Wyvern power. Meraze are powerful fliers and can soar to great heights.

Behavior
Meraze is very territorial and will become very aggressive to potential threats. It is known to destroy its habitat in order to kill whatever provoked it.
