Beta Sarleen

Beta Sarleen are Raptorial Bird Wyverns. They are the leaders of Sarleen.
==Appearance/Aesthetic Differences==
The Sarleen are part of the Raptorial sub-group, and also part of a semi sub-group in of itself known as "Jawline Wyvern". They are told by their developed upper bodies that slant forward and a more heavier build to most other Raptorial Bird Wyverns. The trait that sets them apart from the other classes is their distinctive adaptions of developments of their jaws, hence the the group name of Jawline.
Beta Sarleen are much larger than the regular Sarleen, triple in size to them. Their plating has greatly developed, growing from simple patches to multilayered shells that have expanded over more of the body. The fur has grown thicker and has a more prominent green tint around its edges. The tail has grown from a club into a spiked mace, with the armor plating growing outwards. The Beta Sarleen's tusks have greatly grown from the Sarleen's, extending twice the size they were when it was young and have curved in an arch, comparable to that of that of pincers of a Seltas Queen. 
The colouration of the Beta Sarleen's plating is a bronze colouration, with the fur having a greenish tint, the scales being an earthy brown, and the tusks being a mixture of brown and white.
==Behaviour==
Beta Sarleen are aggressive to anything that quickly approaches it or Sarleen next to it. Towards hunters it displays a threatening yell, with its mouth open to highlight the tusks in an attempt to make them back away. Should that fail, they proceed to attack. They are naturally aggressive towards any that seem like potential prey or danger that looks easy to repel. When hungry, they will kill prey either alone or with a pack of Sarleen. Although sturdy for a monster like it, Beta Sarleen avoid encounters involving more dangerous monsters unless there is a urgent reason or no other choice. 
The Beta Sarleen prefer to stay around the "rocky" sections of locales they are in, occasionally wandering into the open areas mainly when several Sarleen follow them. 
==In-Game Description==
==Introduction==
No More Rock Ruining!: Area 7 Rocky Hills: Persistent Vandal
The hunter and three members of the Boeowder Felyne Tribe arrive at the scene. The Felynes have had their resources damaged and stolen by the monster found in this area. As they head for the cover of a boulder, one Felyne spots the perpetrator. The eye of the Felyne zooms in to dramatically show one of the rocks being scraped by large tusks. The camera continues making it look like the monster being shown is a huge beast, along with sounds just as intimidating. Next, the hunter takes a look. They see something more normal, a Raptorial Bird Wyvern monster alone in the area using the rock pile to sharpen its dulled tusks. The lead Felyne explains its plan to the other two, except there isn't two; there is one going to the Bird Wyvern with a makeshift hammer in hand. As it hops towards the monster, the leader comically waves its arms around in an attempt to signal it to come back. But there is nothing that can be done, the felyne dramatically slams the hammer against the plating back of the monster twice, making it turn its head around to notice, and with a overly built up spinning final attack the Felyne smashes the hammer on the head. It would be literal, as upon the impact with the head plating the stone hammer breaks into pieces, some hitting the tusks. Although the attacks had no effect on the monster, the small scrapes on the tusks and the hit on the head do more than annoy it. The lead Felyne facepalms, the attacker Felyne backs away and whimpers as the monster, the Beta Sarleen, glares at it and then looks at its tusks, noticing the small scrapes it caused. Without any thought, the Beta Sarleen snarls upwards and tears out the rock that it was using a few seconds ago and hold it between the tusks. The attacking Felyne screams and begins running away as the Beta Sarleen starts chasing it, attempting to hit the cat with the rock before eventually throwing it, narrowly missing the hunter. Although it did well, the Felyne is knocked down when the Beta Sarleen grazes earth at it. Slowly the Beta approaches. With nowhere to go the Felyne curls into a ball as the Beta Sarleen prepares for a lethal strike. Suddenly, snarls and hisses are heard throughout the area. From the left side, Sarleen walk in to face what's on the right side, Scofisl. Despite all this the Beta Sarleen hasn't acknowledged yet the battle that is about to start and lifts up its head, baring tusks ready to impale the Felyne. The Beta instead of getting its kill, is stabbed in the neck by a extended orange stinger and thrown to the floor as another large Raptorial Bird Wyvern pounces upon it. The Felyne flees to safety to the rest. Seeing no other choice now, they retreat and leave the hunter to the rest. This large Raptorial is a Prime Scofisl, the leader of the pack that is a major rival to the Sarleens. It claws, and bites at the Beta Sarleen, who is unable to use its tusks due to the Prime's paralysing toxins. This advantage is short lived, as the Prime is unable to strike a soft point. Still having full control of it, the Beta Sarleen thumps the left foot of the Prime Scofisl using its plated tail. One hit is enough to make it detach and roll off in pain. Paralysis in the neck wears off, and the Beta Sarleen gets back onto its feet and faces down the Prime Scofisl, and the hunter decides to involve themselves in the fight. The hunt begins with Beta Sarleen and Prime Scofisl engaging a Turf War, who Beta Sarleen will win in the outcome and make the Scofisl pack flee.
==Rage And Tired State==
*Enraged: Smoke huffs from mouth.
*Tired: Drools from mouth and pauses after heavy attacks. 
==Mount==
Beta Sarleen can be mounted on its head and back.
==Attacks==
*Forward Jab: The Beta Sarleen will take a few steps forward and jab its tusks at a hunter/monster.
*Side Jab: It leans to the side away from the target and then swings its tusks at the target in a sharp jab to the facing side. 
*Tail Slam: Taking its tail upwards with a step backwards, the Beta Sarleen brings it down hard with another step. 
*Tail Swing: Beta Sarleen will move backwards and swing its tail around with its body in a left or right movement.
*Earth Graze: It will dig its tusks into the earth and scrape cutout earth at hunters, causing Earthblight.
*Earth Fling: Positioning its face to the ground, it sinks the tusks deep in the earth and walks a few steps at its target and does a hard sweep upwards, flinging a chunk of earth at the target at a distance that will inflict Earthblight if it hits.
*Tusk Charge: Beta Sarleen makes a snarl with its head up high, gradually bringing it to ground level. Once the head lowers down, the Beta Sarleen begins to slowly charge at the hunter or monster with the tusks at the focus of the power. It takes three seconds for it to reach max speed, where it will begin to home in on a target. After running far enough or hitting something, it stops itself with a small skid. If tired, it trips and falls down instead.
====Enraged Only====
*Turning Tusk Carve: Beta Sarleen will raise itself up while rearing to the side, and does a sharp turn around. The tusks carve along the ground in the arc and are swung up to the side when the turn is done.
*Rock Smash: When near a wall or a large rock, Beta Sarleen can slam its tusks through it and rip out a piece to use. Like Tetsucabra, this rock defends the tusks from most angle of attack. After enough hits or if the hunter walks away too far the Beta Sarleen will smack the rock with a twisted strike, reducing it in size, and then go up to the hunter/monster, do a short jump and destroy the rock with a hard smash. If at a distance the Beta Sarleen walks paces towards the target while doing the two hits. Being hit by the rock smash while Stunned puts a hunter in the pinned knockback. 
*Tusk Cut: The Beta Sarleen will yell at a target, then run and do a curved slash with its tusks.
*Heavy Tusk Stab: The Beta Sarleen's strongest attack involves it walking quickly but heavily towards its target with accuracy. Bringing its head to near contact with the target it suddenly whips its whole body backwards at a slant, with one leg lifted up and its tusks pointed right at the target. With a dramatic stance done, it plows right at the target with the full force of its body weight and the tusks piercing right through the ground. After this attack, the Beta Sarleen has to re-balance its spread out legs and tear out the tusks from the ground, leaving a big opening for attack. 
===High Rank Onward===
*Earthy Turning Tusk Carve: While preparing the attack, Beta Sarleen bobs its head around, the signal that the attack will be the variant of the normal one. 
====Enraged Only====
*Double-up Tusk Cut: In the double up, the Beta Sarleen uses the hard momentum of the last cut to bring itself around and run at either at the same target or another, doing a second Tusk Cut.
===G Rank Only===
*Unearthing Stop: At the end of a Tusk Charge in G-rank, the Beta Sarleen has a high chance of ending a max speed charge by using the momentum it has made by throwing its tusks through the ground and sending a large wave of earth in front of it, inflicting Earthblight on those hit. 
====Enraged Only====
*Pouncing Tusk Strike: Able to be done on a ledge or on flat ground with most of its armor damaged. Beta Sarleen makes a sudden screech to the sky and steps backwards. With effort it leaps, the tusks grazing earth across far as it does for hunters to be hit unexpectedly. The Beta Sarleen then pounces upon the nearest hunter, diving its tusks straight down at them. The Beta Sarleen lands with a heavy impact, tusks completely impaled through the ground. The Beta then pulls them out, and if the attack was done from a ledge, will violently do so and create another burst of earth for hunters to avoid. This attack when done with tusks intact from a ledge does as much damage as its Heavy Tusk Stab.

==Carves==
===Low Rank===
Icon	Item Name 	Description
 	Beta Sarleen Scale 	A Beta Sarleen scale. It is easily mistakable for a piece of rusted stone.
 	Beta Sarleen Hide 	A thin cut of fur from a Beta Sarleen. The green tint is caused by moss growth on the earthy particles covering the edges.
 	Beta Sarleen Shell 	A piece of armour from a Beta Sarleen. These pieces are designed to still have some toughness, but be much lighter to fit the more weaker parts of the body.
 	Beta Sarleen Plating	A chunk of plating from a Beta Sarleen, fully carved off. For a monster of its stature, this is surprisingly a really effective piece of armour.
 	Beta Sarleen Tusk 	A Beta Sarleen's curved tusk. Although not designed for impaling, a slash from one of these leaves deep cuts.
 	Beta Sarleen Tail 	A Beta Sarleen's tail. The shape and size of it makes it remarkably powerful.
===High Rank===
Icon	Item Name 	Description
 	Beta Sarleen Scale+ 	Strong Beta Sarleen scales have a strong metallic scent to them. The minerals make this a great item to forge equipment with.
 	Beta Sarleen Hide+ 	Although not armoured, the fur serves a role for the plating. The foliage growing on it helps keep the ore contents inside from corroding away.
 	Beta Sarleen Carapace	Several layers of this plating grow outwards, leaving spiking remnants of old pieces. Although it seems counter-effective, the spikes are able to injure if pressed against hard enough.
 	Beta Sarleen Plating+	The exterior is not only incredibly hard, it also has a curved shape that makes it hard for fangs and claws to get a hold of. The fact of it bending under the blacksmiths forge is another question though...
 	Beta Sarleen Tusk+ 	The tusks of a Beta Sarleen grow alongside the plating, meaning if they are damaged they grow back, sometimes stronger than before. These ones show their use.
===G/Master Rank===
Icon	Item Name 	Description
 	Beta Sarleen Shard 	A strong scale grown on a Beta Sarleen that has developed both organically and like if it was a stone build underground.
 	Beta Sarleen Fur 	The vegetation that has grown on the fur has permanently stained it lime and grass green. Years have also made it slightly resistant to strikes.
 	Beta Sarleen Carapace 	Light weight to the heavy weight, it offers basic protection, but parts with it can move much more fluently than the heavy plated parts.
 	Beta Sarleen Armorplating	The exterior build of the plates have grown over years of regrowth and beatings to become near impenetrable. Its toughness has been compared to a Gravioses shell.
 	Beta Sarleen Honedtusk 	A hard tusk that has been shaped and sharpened into the perfect design for any kind of use by the Beta Sarleen.
 	Beta Sarleen Lash 	A Beta Sarleen tail strengthened to near bizarre levels. One heavy hit from this is enough to shatter a large rock into pebbles, and completely snap a large leg in two.

==Ecological Information==
===Placement In Food Chain===
Beta Sarleen are the Bottom of the food chain in the Rocky Hills, acting as the low tier predator in that locale and in others it travels to. Beta Sarleen prey upon the monsters that Sarleen do, sometimes hunting together to bring down a larger herbivore that would normally be greatly difficult for them to do alone. 
The Beta Sarleen in turn find themselves vulnerable to higher-up predators, such as the Swilla and Rasendebar. Beta Sarleen have been observed resisting being hunted by these monsters and even succeeding in driving them away. Top food chain monsters have next to or no issue taking down a Beta Sarleen, with the Faichcoln being a huge danger to them, as they have spiked braces on their limbs that can rip right through their armor without much of an effort. 
===Behaviour Towards Other Monsters===
When they are hungry, Beta Sarleen prey upon small herbivores and sometimes large ones with packs. They will fight with members of other Raptorial Bird Wyvern packs to defend their territory from them. Other small monsters do not worry the Beta Sarleen much, as most cannot directly damage the armor plates that defend it. 
Beta Sarleen are the main protection for their packs from large monsters, who if they come under threat and call for it, the Beta will come to their help. The Beta Sarleen have been known and have been observed attempting to fight with monsters that they would in normal circumstances flee from in the instance that Sarleen made a cry for help. Beta Sarleen try to defend them the best it can, sometimes even at a great risk of life for themselves.
If not in the presence of a pack or the Sarleen in the area are dead, the Beta Sarleen will flee from dangerous larger monsters without much thought. 
===Tracks===
Beta Sarleen's common tracks are "Beta Sarleen Footprints" that are left wherever the Beta Sarleen walks. Another track are "Tusk Scrapes", created when a Beta Sarleen sharpens its tusks on a rock.
===Specific Locale Interactions===
In the Rocky Hills, if they come across rocks in an area, they may sharpen their tusks on them, leaving a track. Also in the Rocky Hills, they can utilise the same rocks to attack hunters and monsters. 
===Special Behaviours===
If all of its armor pieces are broken, the Beta Sarleen will become slightly faster and also lose some aggression. 
==Interactions With Other Monsters==
===With Sarleen===
Beta Sarleen can be called upon by Sarleen in distress, which upon hearing the calls will head for the area they are in and attack the threat. 
===With Prime Scofisl===
====Turf War====
The two monsters first attack with simple lashes of the claws and tusks, none hitting their target. Beta Sarleen goes for an uppercut, but the more agile Prime Scofisl jumps out of the way and whacks the Beta in the face with its extended tail. The stinger also releases some neurotoxin, making the Beta Sarleen's head go numb. The Prime Scofisl then leaps onto the Beta Sarleen and stabs its stinger into the back left of it, paralysing its tail and left leg. The Prime Scofisl then makes a hard slash at the Beta Sarleen's head, doing moderate damage and if not already will break the head's plating. Beta Sarleen emits a howl and uses its right leg and its neck to thrust the tusks at the underbelly of the Prime Scofisl. Both monsters fall over, with moderate damage being done to Prime Scofisl by the tusk strike. Beta Sarleen then recovers from its paralysis and snarls at the Prime Scofisl and it hisses back. One of them then leaves the area afterwards.
====Overpower (F)====
=====Prime Scofisl Overpowered=====
For this to happen there must be at least three Sarleen present close-by.
The Turf War appears to begin as normal, but instead of Prime Scofisl lunging out with its stinger, a Sarleen from behind the Prime slams its tusks into the stingers base, locking it in place. Unable to extend its tail the Prime Scofisl angrily hops around, trying to both shake off the Sarleen and avoid the Beta Sarleen at the same time. Then, two more Sarleen come and hold each leg in place with tusks, aggravating Prime Scofisl and making it scream out in rage. As it drops its head from that, it is met by a hard slash from Beta Sarleen's tusks. The Prime Scofisl's head is wounded by this and flips it over, with the Sarleens tusks scraping along the body parts as they detach. The slash does heavy damage while the three Sarleens do minor damage to the Prime Scofisl. As it gets up, the Prime Scofisl holds its face with its left hand and makes a screech of pain. Defeated, Prime leaves the area.
=====Beta Sarleen Overpowered=====
For this to happen there must be at least three Scofisl present close-by.
The Turf War appears to begin as normal, but instead of the Prime Scofisl leaping onto the Beta Sarleen, it orders three Scofisl to surround the monster. The Beta attempts to lunge at the Prime, but the Scofisl spring upon the Beta and sting it repeatedly, making it fall over from paralysis before it makes it. The Prime Scofisl then bites the Beta's head for small damage, and then does the claw slash like the Turf War to wound the head. The Prime then leaves the area with the Scofisl along with it in a humiliating fashion to the Beta Sarleen. Beta Sarleen then recovers, doing a enraged snarl in the stance of Deviljho's roar. 
====Killing Blow (F)====
=====Prime Scofisl Is Killed=====
Able to be triggered when Prime Scofisl is at limping stage health and is attacked by Beta Sarleen.
Prime Scofisl, severely wounded by combat, wobbles backwards and tries to ready its tail. However, the Beta Sarleen grabs the tails base in between its tusks, and in one violent twist, breaks it. The Prime Scofisl lets out a loud scream and falls to the ground in agony. To prevent any chances to recovery Beta Sarleen, smashes the legs of Prime Scofisl with a smash of its tail. Now unable to do anything against it, the Beta Sarleen begins its killing. Using the tusks, it repeatedly slashes the body of the Prime Scofisl. The Prime Scofisl suddenly raises its head and screams at the Beta Sarleen, only to be met with a swift slash to the neck. Beta Sarleen then grabs the neck in between its tusks and using the same method as the tail it violently twists it to the ground. Prime Scofisl is killed as its neck is both slit and completely broken and flops upon impact. If there are any Scofisl nearby, Beta Sarleen will turn to face them and emit a aggressive snarl, to which they instantly run screeching away and flee the locale. 
=====Beta Sarleen Is Killed=====
Able to be triggered when Beta Sarleen is at limping stage health and is attacked by Prime Scofisl.
With the hit received, the Beta Sarleen is thrown backwards into a defenceless state. The Prime Scofisl makes it quick by swiping at the Beta Sarleen's legs and head to bring it down, and then slashes the chest. Although it would appear that the strong attack was wrongly placed, it was intentional for the Prime Scofisl. Before it is able to react, Beta Sarleen is stabbed in the chest wound by the Prime Scofisl's stinger. Via the wound, the neurotoxins flow directly into the blood stream. The Prime Scofisl makes a victory screech as the Beta Sarleen shakes on the floor and dies as the paralysis hits its vital organs.
====Turf War Transition Into Killing Blow (F)====
=====Prime Scofisl Is Killed=====
Health requirements to trigger require same amount as the normal Killing Blow.
The Turf War appears to be going normal, until the time comes when Prime Scofisl stings the Beta Sarleen. Due to the wounds, it is unable to release any more neurotoxins, and this leaves a huge opening instead for the Beta Sarleen. The Turf War transitions into a Killing Blow with Beta Sarleen grabbing the neck of the Prime Scofisl with its tusks and slams it to the ground once, twice, thrice and then finally a large smash that slashes the neck on two sides. The Prime Scofisl only makes one brief body twitch before dying. 
=====Beta Sarleen Is Killed=====
Health requirements to trigger require same amount as the normal Killing Blow.
The Beta Sarleen, due to being weakened greatly cannot take the paralysis injected into it via that part of the Turf War, and collapses down. The transition into Killing Blow begins then. Clawing into its head, the Prime Scofisl shoves the Beta Sarleen over onto its back. It then pounces onto its underbelly, the foot claws sinking into the skin. Using both claws Prime Scofisl stabs through the sides of the Beta Sarleen's neck while biting at the same time, crushing it and killing the Beta Sarleen. Prime Scofisl then swallows a piece of flesh bitten off from the Beta's neck.
===With Rasendebar===
====Turf War====
The two rush each other and clash tusks, both surprisingly looking to be evenly matched at first. The struggle ends with the Beta Sarleen managing to cut along the face of the Rasendebar with a push, doing minor damage. The Rasendebar emits a squeal and stammers to the side. The Beta Sarleen attempts to pierce the head, but the Rasendebar dodges and starts running away. While it appears Rasendebar is leaving, it really is not, and before the Beta Sarleen knows it, it comes charging into it. Unable to get out of the way, the Beta Sarleen is rammed by the Rasendebar for moderate damage and is knocked down, ending the Turf War.
===With Swilla===
====Turf War====
The Beta Sarleen attempts to use its tusks to slash and stab the Swilla, but the Bird Wyvern is simply too agile for it to land a hit. Beta reaches up with its head, but the Swilla kick it backwards and with a twirl of its wingblades, slashes the underside of Beta Sarleen where the arms are. The arms plating is broken by this and knocks Beta Sarleen howling across the floor for high damage. 
===With Faichcoln===
====Turf War====
The Beta Sarleen will first lunge towards the Faichcoln which evades the attack effortlessly and counters by grabbing the back plating of the Beta Sarleen. Unable to pierce through like that, Faichcoln instead drags the Beta Sarleen across the ground. A desperate Beta Sarleen attempts to hit the arms of the Faichcoln, but to its dismay, the spikes prevent any attacks of it from piercing the skin. The Faichcoln then throws it hard across the ground, weakening its back plating for hunters or others ways to more easily break. Using strategy, it flips earth at the Faichcoln's face and goes in charging. Unfortunately for the Beta Sarleen, this doesn't work. The Faichcoln blocks the attack effortlessly using the arm spikes and using them, it violently tears through the head plating and the tusks of the Beta Sarleen. The Beta Sarleen's head plating and tusks are broken, and the attacks force sends it cartwheeling across the ground for very high damage. The Faichcoln snarls at the Beta Sarleen and then leaves as the Beta Sarleen howls in pain on the floor. 
====Killing Blow====
Beta Sarleen must be at 20% health for this to occur, and its head and tusks must also be wounded. Faichcoln will break them in the Turf War, and it will easily break them after Beta Sarleen reaches the Killing Blow health requirement. 
The Faichcoln roars at the Beta Sarleen, who runs away howling as it has no means of defending itself against the Fanged Wyvern. The Faichcoln makes a dash at the Beta, pouncing upon it and delivering a Nergigante style pound to its back plating. Its impact is so strong, the plating breaks if it hasn't already and so does the Beta Sarleen's spine. Unable to move the Faichcoln claims its prey, slamming its claw and the spikes through the head and neck of the Beta Sarleen, instantly killing the Raptorial Bird Wyvern. The Faichcoln then emits a roar, and makes all Sarleen in the locale flee upon this happening. 
===With Obsidian Deviljho (New World Species)===
Along with being picked up and used as a living weapon by Obsidian Deviljho, Beta Sarleen also has a scenario with it.
====Killing Blow====
Able to be triggered at 30% health remaining for the Beta Sarleen. 
The Beta Sarleen shows great fear as it sees the towering Obsidian Deviljho make a stomp towards it, almost making it fall from the tremor. The monsters jaws swells as it enters its fire mode, emitting a fiery orange glow that makes the Beta fully lose all confidence and start to run. But, due to its small stature with its heavy weight, it does not get away from a fast bite. The Beta Sarleen begins howling nonstop as the Obsidian Jho holds it in its fangs. The Beta Sarleen's armour and bones begin to crack under the chewing, and combined with the heat the jaw emits, renders Beta with zero movement and immense pain. Obsidian Jho emits a low growl as it begins to rise its head upwards, with Beta Sarleen going insane. The head reaches skyward position and the Obsidian Deviljho opens wide its mouth, building up pressure. Due to the injuries sustained Beta Sarleen is in a cylinder position, and all it can do is emit one last howl. The Obsidian Deviljho uses a mega chomp right there, creating a burst of flame from its mouth which hides any gore, in a shocking scene, many chunks of plating are sent flying down around the Obsidian Deviljho, which will damage hunters and anything else hit by them. Obsidian Deviljho swallows all remaining minerals and earthy remains on the Beta Sarleen, and then spits its corpse down as a burnt, figureless pile lacking any plating. No carves can be gained from this body, as all materials that can be carved are destroyed and burnt.
==Interactions with The Frenzy/Hyper State/Apex/Tempered==
Beta Sarleen can become Frenzied, becoming able to double up on uppercut attacks. 
Beta Sarleen are unable to become Apex, they lack the resistances to overcome the virus.
Beta Sarleen cannot be in the Hyper Status in gameplay standards, but they can in lore like other lowest tier large monsters.
Beta Sarleen cannot become Tempered as they are too weak for Steamstones to have an effect.
==Ecology==
===Taxonomy===
Beta Sarleen are part of the Bird Wyvern classification. They are part of the typing of Raptorial and part of a sub-group known as Jawline.
===Habitat Range===
The Beta Sarleen have been seen naturally in the Rocky Hills and Emerald Fields, where they favour the rock laden sections of the locales with their packs. They have also been lured to the Defiant Stronghold by the Elumantiasphire.
===Ecological Niche===
Beta Sarleen are are predators in the low level food chain. They prey upon monsters that are relative to their size, such as Kelbi, Mosswine and Graseki. With a pack, they are capable of bringing down prey several times their size in the cases of Aptonoth and young Larinoth. Beta Sarleen regularly, in addition to meat, eat rock and ores. Research has discovered the reasoning behind this diet; for growth of a metallic plating over their bodies and to harden their bones.
Beta Sarleen face off against other Raptorial Bird Wyvern packs, most commonly of the Scofisl species. These species cannot damage their plating easily, but Beta Sarleen are vulnerable to the paralysing sting of their tails, leaving them evenly matched.
===Biological Adaptations===
Beta Sarleen are known to possess a biological metal plating developed from minerals ingested by the monsters that grows over their bodies. This plating, even in juveniles, is comparable to that of iron or steel, which no small strike can damage. In the fully grown stage Beta Sarleen is, few normal methods of attack can damage it, only hard hitting blows and high tier monster strikes can break through properly. 
Beta Sarleen are part of the Raptorial Bird Wyvern sub-group known as Jawline Wyverns. They are group of Raptorials that have highly developed jaws that feature protrusions of certain parts. In the Beta Sarleen's case, the protrusions are two tusks that grow from the top sides of their mouths. These tusks are rigid with a hard exterior and are sharpened regularly by the Beta Sarleen on rocks. Unlike normal Sarleen, their tusks have grown outwards and curve more at the front. 
In addition to its main adaptions, the Beta Sarleen have a body-build not unlike a Brute Wyvern's, with a sturdy stance and muscle structure meant to withstand its plating and take more damage than a monster like it would usually be capable of. Their secondary weapon is a tail club made out of the same materials that make up the plated armor. The tail is used mainly for warning off potential threats and as a backup should they be attacked from the rear or restricted in movement and if the tusks are not effective. A solid hit from the tail is painful, and is able to break bones easily with the right force and angle.
===Ecological Behaviour===
Beta Sarleen are aggressive towards anything that looks like a threat that they believe they can fight. Otherwise, they leave them be. 
In a passive environment, the Beta Sarleen will tend to their needs. They look for and find rocks that are edible to ingest minerals for their armored plates and ones with rounded surfaces to sharpen their tusks on. If wounded, they remove themselves from the open and hide in shelters such as caves until they are ready to return back into the hunting grounds. It's also during these times that Beta Sarleen display some interactions outside of hunting with their Sarleen pack.
Unlike many of its kind, Beta Sarleen relies little on its pack, preferring to fight alone. This is speculated to be because the Beta Sarleen believes that its plating will protect it enough to gain an advantage to win. Only in desperate situations will a Beta Sarleen call upon its pack. If a Sarleen group calls for it, a Beta Sarleen will always come to their aid. A Beta Sarleen is fully capable of defeating other low tier monsters, but with mid tier and above, it would need at least three Sarleen to stand much of a chance. High tier monsters of the Rocky Hills, regardless of the Beta Sarleen's defensive capabilities, are too powerful for it to attempt to fight back. Those who do for any reason is usually left with severe injuries and more often killed by the monsters. 
A Beta Sarleen becomes one by killing the current one in combat, which is always done in the breeding season. Despite being called a pack leader, it isn't truly one, with the most matured Sarleen taking most of the responsibility. It has shown even worse traits towards the female Sarleen, known to still try to forcibly mate with them outside of the breeding season and not caring towards their special needs. Males are often backed away from the females by the Beta itself, even leading to fights and rarely if it gets bad enough, even rebellions. This behaviour has led to the title being called "Beta", because of their lack of care towards their packs until one of them is in severe danger and the lucid disregard for allowing mates to interact with other males and the females in general. 
==Trivia==
*Beta Sarleen was designed to create a Raptorial Bird Wyvern that uses the Earth element.
