Atabal'iwaskra

 are powerful Elder Dragons of unknown origin.

Physiology
can easily be identified by their large, golden wings. In fact, their entire bodies are covered in a coat of divinely shining feathers. Their lower legs, beak and tail are featherless, revealing a bright orange, red and black pattern on the monster's skin. The dragons' heads are adorned with two large feathers, which - unlike all others - shine a silvery white and have black tips. Their large, cream colored beaks are a formidable weapon, used not only to rip prey apart, but also to do the same to unlucky hunters. Their avian-looking forelegs are equipped with sharp claws, which can deliver wounds just as deadly as those from the beak.

Placement In Food Chain
are dangerous forces of nature, and thus have little to nothing to fear from other monsters. Only equally strong Elder Dragons, like Chameleos, Rihau Baraina or Garuba Daora pose a potential threat to these creatures.

Behavior Towards Other Monsters
Even though are vicious and powerful fighters, they usually prefer not to attack intruders unless really necessary. In fact, most monsters are repelled by merely a display of the dragons' wings. However, should an individual be attacked or feel threatened, it will not hesitate to use all their might.

Turf Wars

 *  vs. Chameleos:
 *  vs. Rihau Baraina:
 *  vs. Garuba Daora
 *  vs. Nefu Garumudo:

Tracks
The tracks from a wandering are usually either " Footprint" or Golden Feather". However, rarely, one can find a "Silver Feather", which grants a higher amount of research points.

Specific Locale Interactions
When found in the central part of the Temple Of The Sun, will rear up and burst through the roof of the ruin, letting the sunlight flood the room, which acts like a flash attack. This also enables the dragon to charge itself up with solar energy, much like when "outside".

Special Behaviors
When facing a Gharash'murun, the will first display its taunt, much like when initiating a Turf War. However, instead of the two dragons fighting, they will instead form a Bond, in a similar way to Teostra and Lunastra. The dragons rear up, take to the skies and start circling around. The Gharash'murun then releases a gust of wind, which, thanks to the constant circling motion, turns into a large tornado. Then both dragons release their true elemental powers, Light and Black Flame uniting in the tornado, before both monsters violently land and roar. This causes the tornado to "explode" violently. The two monsters then catch a breath, before either one leaves the area, or they continue fighting the hunter.

Scientists first thought that these two dragons were male and female, however, after further researching, it was proven that they are, in fact, two separate species. Why exactly this bond happens is still unknown, however, it is speculated that the Gharash'murun and are in some sort of symbiotic relationship.

Abilities
are infamous for their ability to use the sunlight to their advantage. Their feathers are covered in a metallic substance, which, while also reflecting sunlight very well, is highly conductive. They can generate the Light Element, the feathers on their bodies serving as an enhancement. The dragon can not only release this element via its large wings, but also through its mouth. Additionally, it is a very adept flier, enabling it to strike at foes from above.

Trivia

 * individuals sometimes are seen flying to the Ruined Ridge. Why exactly they do so is still a mystery.
 * Some scientists speculate that these creatures target Valstrax, seeing them as potential prey. However, this is still not proven.
 * A hunter tasked to research Kulve Taroth once claimed to have witnessed a swarm (!) of attack the humongous Elder Dragon and even kill it, feasting not only on the carcass, but also on its golden armor.
 * This would mean that is one of the only Elder Dragons to be able to team up.
 * This would additionally mean that Kulve Taroth in fact has a predator.
