Zarai Mawara

Zarai Mawara (ザライマワラ Zarai Mawara) is a dangerous Leviathan which is known as the rival of the Voluron, primarily inhabiting the abyssal regions of the oceans just like it.
== Physiology ==
Zarai Mawara are large Leviathans which have a body structure like that of Mizutsune, being quite long and slender. Zarai Mawara are however slightly bulkier and lack any sort of fur, instead being covered in smooth scales, making their skin seem almost completely smooth. It has elongated jaws which it can lunge forwards with like a goblin shark to catch prey. It also has a W-shaped crest on top of its head with the sides sticking out from the head and the middle portion being extendable in a fashion akin to an Anjanath's nose. Its eyes are located under this crest and have bioluminescent spots next to them, right under the crest. A row of glowing red spots goes across the side of the Leviathan's body. Its limbs are more muscular than those of Mizutsune and have shorter yet thicker claws. A large fin is present around halfway down the tail on the dorsal side and it has a glowing red tail tip.
Zarai Mawara's body is primarily outer space black in terms of color with a light grey underbelly and patterning across its body. The top of its crest is an ebony black in coloring with its bioluminescent spots being Spanish blue. Its claws are eerie black in color and both the spots on its side and its tail tip are colored Spanish red. Its eyes are Syracuse orange in color.
== Behavior ==
Zarai Mawara are aggressive Leviathans which will attack just about anything in its territory, its agility yet impressive strength allowing it to quickly take down these trespassers. They are known to be rivals to their fellow abyss-dwelling Leviathans, Voluron.
== Ecological Information ==
=== Position in the Food Chain ===
Zarai Mawara are large Leviathans that occupy a position high in the food chain thanks to their large size, agility and abilities. They're easily capable of preying upon small monsters and a variety of large monsters can also be on the menu for this Leviathan. It still has to compete with several other large and strong monsters, but still faces predation from powerful monsters.
=== Behavior towards Other Monsters ===
Zarai Mawara will attack small monsters if they wander too close or provoke it, but it'll sometimes attack them even without this happening. Zarai Mawara will also attack other large monsters if they wander too close or provoke it, but again, it'll sometimes attack them even without this being the case. Zarai Mawara will flee from powerful monsters and Elder Dragons if it takes enough damage from them, as it's known to still attack them.
=== Tracks ===
Zarai Mawara can leave behind a variety of tracks for hunters to utilize in tracking it down. These tracks include "Large Wet Prints", which can be found on the ground, "Black Scales", which can be found on the ground, "Large Claw Marks", which can be found on the ground or on walls, and "Black Flexible Membrane", which can be found on the ground.

== Cutscene ==
=== Hunt Cutscene ===
* Location: Nightmare Marshes (Night)
* Synopsis: As the hunter enters Area 6 of the Nightmare Marshes at night, they can barely see anything due to the clouds getting in the way of the moon. The camera suddenly shows the hunter as something large seems to move further away behind them, making sounds as it moves which alerts the hunter. The hunter looks back, but doesn't see anything before they hear something moving again and look in that directions, but to no avail. Then they manage to catch a glimpse of what seems like glowing spots together with eyes moving in the shadows, but it quickly moves out of sight again. The hunter then looks back and sees the glowing spots and eyes, now stationary and clearly looking towards them. The clouds before the moon start clearing as the spots and eyes quickly start moving towards the hunter, revealing more and more of what it is, until the hunter can see the Zarai Mawara they have to hunt charging at them. The hunter quickly leaps out of the way of the Leviathan which turns back around towards the hunter as they get back up and roars, marking the start of the hunt.
=== Ecology Cutscene ===
* Location: Great Sea (Ganizeus)
* Synopsis: The cutscene begins by showing a deep sea section of the Great Sea (Ganizeus) with several deep sea species of fish swimming around. Suddenly, some glowing spots appear that start attracting the fish, because they think it's food. However, the glowing spots also reveal two large eyes as the fish get close at which point it's too late for them to realize, it's a Zarai Mawara that quickly lunges out with its jaws to catch some of the fish before gobbling them down. Suddenly, some other large brighter lights appear behind the Zarai Mawara which is revealed to be a Voluron as the Zarai Mawara turns around. The two Leviathans roar at each other and quickly swim towards each other, the Zarai Mawara managing to get its slender around the Voluron and biting at its neck. The Voluron roars out in pain, but then suddenly releases a large electrical shock which manages to get the Zarai Mawara off. The Voluron then smacks the Zarai Mawara away with its large tail, but the Zarai Mawara retaliates by shooting out a stream of freezing water at the Voluron. The two Leviathans roar at each other again before a much louder noise is heard with the two Leviathans looking to where it came from. A Ganizeus is shown to be swimming out of the darkness and towards the Leviathans. As a result the two Leviathans decide to quickly swim away as the Ganizeus passes by where they were before and swimming away as the cutscene starts turning to black and ending.
== Abilities ==
Zarai Mawara is a large Leviathan with a long, slender body akin to that of Mizutsune. This gives the Leviathan a large amount of physical strength yet still allows it to be agile, leaping around like a Mizutsune. Zarai Mawara are also capable of extending the middle section of their crest and gather air into a sac found under it. It can then re-contract the middle section, producing a short-range yet powerful roar that can stun foes. Zarai Mawara are also capable of spewing out icy water at foes, but when they're close to death, this icy water will be replaced by a dangerous dark energy that can quickly cripple foes. Alongside this, Zarai Mawara are capable of producing a strange substance which seems to turn their mouth a bluish color whenever used and weakens the resistances of foes, further enhancing the dangerous effects of the elements it can use.

Name Meaning: Dark Abyss CrocodileZarai Mawara are dangerous Leviathans found primarily living within the deep regions of the ocean where it competes with Voluron which is its rival. Zarai Mawara is feared by many due to how difficult it's to see in the dark, making an encounter with it likely to result in death. It's related to the smaller Zarai Makawi.
=== Habitat Range ===
Zarai Mawara have been found inhabiting a variety of environments which include the likes of the Old Swamp, Nightmare Marshes, Deserted Island, Flooded Forest, Underwater Ruin, Frozen Seaway, Tide Island, Polar Sea, Ruined Temple, Great Sea (Ganizeus), Genesis Caverns, Blizzard Canyon, Lonely Island, Misty Empire, Scarlet Marshes, Plutonic Cavern and Templux Swamp.
=== Ecological Niche ===
Zarai Mawara are found high on the food chain due to their large size, combination of strength and agility and dangerous abilities. Zarai Mawara can easily feed on small monsters like Bullfango, Velociprey, Baggi, Epioth, Jaggia, Jaggi, Kelbi and Ludroth. Larger monsters like Arzuros, Bulldrome, Giadrome, Lagombi, Daimyo Hermitaur and Yian Kut-Ku are also thought to be considered fair game for this large and strong Leviathan. Some think these Leviathans are even capable of feeding on monsters like Shogun Ceanataur, Gogomoa, Gobul, Rathian, Tafakogh and Trogloscuro are also thought to sometimes fall prey to this large Leviathan.
Zarai Mawara still have to compete with plenty of other strong and capable monsters which include the likes of Anorupatisu, Barioth, Brachydios, Gammoth, Baruragaru, Aglunastos, Shojorai, Voluron, Lumeterre, Frozen Seltas Queen, Gallantoth, Gulogre, Bagarala, Yajiyazyk, Ranosga, Ampaltus and Eusphyrelex. Zarai Mawara will make sure that these competitors know it's not to be taken lightly.
Despite their strength, agility and abilities, Zarai Mawara still have to worry about predations from Elder Dragon-Level monsters, like Minhocadaver, Glacairre and Deviljho, powerful Deviants, like Diamondhide Gulogre, Cryosumo Pokaradon and Frostempress Aviarcta, and the occasional Elder Dragon. Zarai Mawara will make sure to not go down without putting up a fight thanks to its size, agility and dangerous abilities.
=== Biological Adaptations ===
Zarai Mawara are large Leviathans which have a body structure akin to that of Mizutsune, being quite long and slender, allowing it to be agile enough to move and leap around with great speed. However, Zarai Mawara are bulkier than Mizutsune which grants them more physical strength yet still doesn't seem to take away from their agility. The crest of a Zarai Mawara possesses an extendable and retractable middle section under which a special sac is located that air can be gathered into. Once the sac is filled with air and the middle section is retracted, the Zarai Mawara will produce a short-range yet powerful roar which can stun foes. Their large and strong claws allow them to rip rocks out of the ground which they can then toss towards threats and, in case of arctic regions due to being made out of ice and snow, encase them in ice and snow. Zarai Mawara are also capable of producing a strange substance which weakens the resistances of their foes and is signified by the mouth of the Zarai Mawara turning a bluish color similar to its bioluminescent spots. Lastly, Zarai Mawara are capable of spewing an icy water at foes or, in case they've been severely weakened, a dangerous dark energy that can quickly cripple foes. By using these elemental abilities in conjunction with its strange substance, it can quickly deter threats or them take down just as quickly.
=== Behavior ===
Zarai Mawara are Leviathans which are known to be highly aggressive, but seem to also be quite intelligent. They're known to stalk prey from the shadows and waiting for an opening before striking. When hunting prey underwater, the Zarai Mawara is known to use its bioluminescent spots to lure them in before quickly lunging out its jaws to strike. Many consider seeing a Zarai Mawara as an omen of death due to the threat it poses.

Zarai Mawara Icon by Kweazle.png|Icon by Kweazle
== Notes ==
* Zarai Mawara's roar requires HG Earplugs to block.
** 
* Zarai Mawara can be blinded for some time through the usage of Flash Bombs or Flash Pods.
* When Zarai Mawara is tired, it will try to find a small monster and eat it or a carcass and eat from it to regain Stamina.
== Trivia ==
* Zarai Mawara is based primarily on the Shadow Leviathan from Subnautica: Below Zero, but is also based on the goblin shark.
* Zarai Mawara is one of two monsters Dinoman0310 made for her two-year anniversary on the FanonMonsterHunter Wiki. The other one being Kurung'cimi. This is why Zarai Mawara was conceptualized as a rival to Voluron, as the latter was the first monster Dino0310 made on the FanonMonsterHunter Wiki.
