Laviente

Laviente appeared in 2009 video game called Monster Hunter Frontier Season 7.0. Laviente is an Unclassified Monster first introduced in Monster Hunter Frontier Season 7.0.

Laviente is a giant, orange-brown and green tusked serpent living on a lonely island far from civilization. This colossal monster has a smooth, white underbelly, in contrast to its patterned scales and webbed ridges that span across its back. Fin-like appendages, which have being classed as "wings" can also be found on the sides of its neck, and spines are lined all along the sides of its body. It can burrow both underground and underwater.

While there is not much info available on Laviente what is known is that they are voracious aggressive monsters, easily consuming nearly everything in their vicinity in little time, similarly to Deviljho they appear to have very fast metabolisms which can lead to side effects if they haven't eaten very much during activity periods. When not looking for food they seem to spend most of their time hibernating deep underground.

Thus far Laviente have only been sighted out on the Solitude Island.

Powers and Abilities
Laviente primarily attacks by smashing its face into the ground causing an array of flying rocks. Because of the succession of these hits, hunters caught in the vicinity will become knocked out (dizzy). Once in awhile, Laviente will become stuck into the ground for roughly 15 seconds, becoming vulnerable. It has many devastating attacks like its gigantic fireballs, but Laviente will deeply inhale before releasing them, giving ample warning.

Laviente can release a powder that ignites, much like the Teostra, and create a short ranged paralyzing pulse. After burrowing into the ground, there will be a series of volcanic geyser eruptions similar to Akantor's fire pillars, except that it takes a bit longer before it explodes. Stepping onto the fire area decreases hunters health. It is also capable of apparently causing a hail of meteor-like rocks to bound across the field by burrowing into the 3rd islands volcano. It appears to one of the largest monster in the Monster Hunter universe thus far.
