Monster Hunter Tri Frenzy
"Wyverns that can hunt in every environment possible. They are able to release a silver mist that causes any affected to become unaware of their injury's"

Behavior
These wyverns don't see many as a threat as it knows how to fight on all terrians. However once such a foe arises, it shows that skill in combat attacking with claws on ground, breath and wings in air, and tail with body in water.

If it finds itself outclassed it has no hesitation to quickly flee the area to escape the stronger monster.

Like most of the flying wyvern class it is highly aggressive and will attack those who seem like a threat.

Undreablight!
Undreablight is a ailment used by Cantios. It has the lethal effect of blurring the health and stamina bars, making it harder to tell how much damage you can take before fainting.

Plus Undrea attacks have a 3% chance (6% in Ultimate rank) of inflicting Severe Undrablight, an extremely dangerous version which completely blurs out the health and stamina bars for a mostly fatal reminder. With the Undrea cursed skill Undreablight is always severe, no matter what.

Cantios' armor grants the Undrea master skill that negates Undreablight and increases effectiveness of Undrea element weapons which are unique to Cantios.

There are two ways of curing it, the Spicy bottle introduced in the game Monster Hunter Tri Frenzy, or a nulberry.

In the Monster Hunter EX series, the mechanics are unchanged.

Notes and Trivia

 * Cantios' creation came from a simple idea: What if there was a creature able to hunt everywhere without being unsuited?
 * Its featured in a blog post from being the most spoken about monster of the week
 * Its wing claws where originally always extended regardless of mode, but due to the render made, Chaoarren decided to make them only appear in ground mode.
 * Like most fanon flagships it is the user Chaoarren's favourite creation.
 * In MHEX, it is seen fighting ansd subsequently killing a Wilolu.
 * It also gains a Variant in MHEX2, known as Veteranized Cantios, which will gain a page some time in the future.

My thoughts
A Remarkable specimen and a perfect predator. No question about it! The Undrea it uses makes it even deadlier. Capcom could take a few IDeas from Chaoarren for sure! I even tried to make it even deadlier in the Monster Hunter EX series with new moves.

Woe to those foolish enough to blindly hunt it unprepared!
