Velkhana (Monster Hunter Series)

A female Elder Dragon that hails from the Hoarfrost reach of the New World. She is a traditional dragon with the slim, upright body structure of Elder Dragons. Her scales and icy shell are a unique crystalline blue. Her head has a tiara-like crown of small horns. It summons ice to cover its wings, limbs, and tail. Its thin, lance-like tail is highly flexible and can jab at enemies. Velkhana can control cold using her ore-infused scales, and can use this in a variety of ways. She primarily attacks foes by breathing supercooled fluid that will flash-freeze on impact, which also allows it to create walls and exploding spikes of ice. She can also use this to create icy armor to protect itself, and disperse freezing clouds that can snare enemies. These clouds will spontaneously freeze when Velkhana hits them with her breath attacks, allowing it to rain chunks of ice upon its foes. Velkhana is also highly agile and evasive, swiftly maneuvering around her enemies while using her lithe, spear-like tail to strike from multiple angles. Notably, if her tail is cut off during battle, she can create a prosthetic using her ice. Velkhana is highly territorial and will viciously attack any intruders. She is also known to freeze smaller creatures and leave their frozen corpses around its domain as a warning to would-be trespassers. But she doesn't regard humans as a threat, as they are insignificant to an animal like her. She cannot speak because she is an Elder Dragon that relies on her instincts to survive, using roars, and other vocalizations to communicate, ward off, and warn other creatures that may pose a threat to her life or position within the food chain.
