Blistering Uragaan

**Blistering Uragaan** are Variants of Uragaan.

## Explanation For Differences

Uragaan that have developed special uses of their ablities from their armored carapaces becoming heavier and gathering many powderstones from age.

## Aesthetic Differences/Appearance

Powderstone ore on chin, more rugged and darker carapace, orange eyes, more spines on back and powdery back, brighter, more numerous ore on tail and chin and belly glows with lava like patterns.

## Mount/Clutch Claw Effects

### Mounting

Exactly the same as normal Uragaan, the head, back, and tail can be mounted.

### Clutch Claw

The chin, back, belly, both legs and the tail can be weakened with the Clutch Claw, and it can be sent into walls/off ledges via Flinch Shots.

## Rage And Tired States

* **Enraged**: Huffs black smoke from mouth, ore on body glows brighter, and belly grows in size and begins burning.
	+ **Blistering Mode**: Carapace and ore burn, scales on body blister with heat, chin becomes a smoky blaze from powderstone's catching fire.
* **Tired**: Drools from mouth, ore becomes dull, and belly shrinks.

## Attacks

* **Explosive Chin**: Due to the powderstone ore on its chin, any attacks that have it slam it now create a small fiery burst when it hits. This gives the Blistering Uragaan the ability to inflict Fireblight with its chin.
* **Hammer's Swing**: Blistering Uragaan will without much warning raise itself up higher and swing its front, right around across its side at a wide angle and reset back at remarkable speed, enough to make it lift up a leg to even successfully perform the attack. This is often done after the Blistering Uragaan is flinched by back or side damage or hunters stay to the side enough. The attack is simple yet effective, the swing causes high damage and sends hunters flying away, while also creating a gust of wind with Dragon Wind Pressure. When Enraged, it can and often will do this attack twice in the opposite direction as the first.
* **Under Chin Swipe**: Since it recognises its belly as a weakness for attacks, it can do a curving chin swipe underneath itself quickly to knock hunters away from it. It can also do this as a counterattack if the belly is flinched.
* **Advancing Chin Swipes**: Blistering Uragaan will widely sweep its chin as it takes a big step forward up to three times when normal and four times when enraged, very much like Deviljho and somewhat like Radobaan.
* **360 Degree Smash:** Blistering Uragaan swipes around through the air with its chin, then turns around and smashes its tail down where the chin started, dropping two rocks behind it.
* **Flip Back-smash**: It will turn itself around with heavy weight of its chin and tail, then use the tail to lift its legs upwards and does a scraping chin slam to roll it onto its back by the very tips of its spines. The Blistering Uragaan will then immediately flip forward its head and tail to launch itself into the air, and will attempt to aim for a hunter as it flies briefly with it looking forward while upside-down. The impact of its landing creates a Tremor Res +2 level quake and will cause huge damage, a flying away knockback and a chance of being Stunned for any hunters directly hit by it. The Blistering Uragaan will take three seconds to recover from the attack, but will immediately start getting back up after the quake when enraged.
* **Super Slam Surprise**: Blistering Uragaan will appear to do a taunt but without sound. As it looks to do its growl, it suddenly swings up its chin and smashes it down at the speed of a Hyper Uragaan, then moving it upwards again and actually doing its growl. This attack will send hunters flying away.
* **Aimed Rock Throw**: Blistering Uragaan raises its tail upwards while searching out an effective target, then flicks the tail to fire several rocks at the preferred target that explode on impact with them, rather than staying for a while once landed.
* **Sleep In Flames**: Blistering Uragaan will begin to build sleep gas as it scrapes its chin across the ground to ignite the powderstone laden chin and then expels large amounts of sleep gas that will linger in place instead of disappearing once it stops expelling. Once the sleep gas is set, the Blistering Uragaan will quickly walk backward and do a Quick Chin Slam to make the sleep gas explode in a quick flare. After this the sleep gas is replaced with a blast cloud that lasts for five seconds. When enraged, it forgoes having to ignite its chin and just starts charging up the lingering sleep gas.
* **Detonation Readied Rocks**: The rocks the Blistering Uragaan throws are twice the size as the standard Uragaan kind and create a small blast when they land without them exploding. After three seconds of them being down they will begin emitting orange smoke that will inflict Blastblight and when detonated will explode with far deadlier power that will upswing hunters and cause large damage. Blistering Uragaan can also throw five rocks at once, and six when enraged.
* **Tail Bomber**: Blistering Uragaan flicks up its chin and sends an ember of fire along its back spines right into the rocks on it's tail. This will ignite them as the Blistering Uragaan prepares its rock throw. Fuming orange and white flames engulf the tail being held in place for two seconds so most rocks as possible are primed with blast ailment chemicals. HC Uragaan then uses both the force of its tail and chin to spin itself around four times, each firing out many of the rocks it has primed in a wide area in a single direction. The rocks explode instantly upon impact, making evading or blocking them hard to do from the amount of them which are flung at once. Hunters have a high chance of getting Blastblight by being hit by a rocks explosion rather than being directly hit, which mostly just inflicts Fireblight.
* **Heavy Rolling**: The Blistering Uragaan will appear to both back up to do a Super Chin Slam and Rolling Super Chin Slam Combo, instead it uses its chin and weight to crush the ground below it, making it sink into the cracks. Blistering Uragaan then curls up and begins its unique new roll attack. This roll has a very noticeably lower speed than the standard one, as it is tearing through the earth from the Blistering Uragaan having sunk into the ground at the start. From behind the roll, many unearthed rocks are flung behind it that add to the fire bursts created from the pressure as with Frontier's Uragaan. Hunters must be extra careful though, as the roll has far more precision at tracking them to make up for the speed loss. If hunters are hit by the Blistering Uragaan in this attack they will take massive damage and be put into a pitfall state that is almost guaranteed to lead to a faint from the rocks and fire that are left from Blistering Uragaan's roll. The heavy roll lasts much longer than a standard one, and ends with Blistering Uragaan erupting from the ground to scatter earth rocks around it and doing a Super Chin Slam that creates a huge fire blast.
* **Wall Crasher**: Should the Heavy Rolling attack be directed into a wall, this unique event will happen. Blistering Uragaan will be instantly knocked over onto its back from the impact and be left open for attack for five seconds. It won't be so easy exploited though, as the impact also creates a tremendous tremor up the wall and to the ceiling above, where it cracks loudly. Large rocks will immediately begin raining down all around the Blistering Uragaan for four seconds, heavily damaging hunters hit. When it recovers, HC Uragaan will always do the Hammer's Swing attack.

### Enraged Only

* **Belly's Heat**: Enraged, its body heat surges towards its specially developed belly. The heat is so great that going near it will drain health like Teostra's flame aura. Poisoning the Blistering Uragaan or wounding its belly will stop the heat being generated.
* **Intense Heat Expel**: Whenever it does its heat expel with its belly still unwounded and enraged the gases are double in size and cause much more damage than before. In addition to this, the area directly below the Blistering Uragaan will become hazardous to walk on for five seconds from blistering heat.
* **Flaming Ore**: The ore on its chin will become alight upon rage, giving fire element to all chin attacks.
* **Denotative Tail**: The rocks on its tail become caked in blast clouds upon rage. This will make the tail cause Blastblight with all melee hits.
* **Multi Chin Slam Finisher**: Instead of taunting now, the Blistering Uragaan will immediately wind up and do a Super Chin Slam upon the finish of the fourth slam. It will rip its chin out of the earth after like the Rolling Super Chin Slam combo.
* **Turning Super Slam**: Blistering Uragaan will take several steps to turn towards a hunter as it readies up a Super Chin Slam, with the attack then being preformed as usual. This variant is almost always done instead of the normal Super Chin Slam when it is in its enraged state.
* **Rock Trap**: The Blistering Uragaan will prepare to roll towards the hunter but, while doing so it will shake its tail. When it rolls towards the hunter, four rocks will fly from both sides of the Blistering Uragaan before it finishes the roll and does a tail swipe. When it does the swipe, a large number of rocks will be thrown from the tail and will surround the HC Uragaan and then explode one by one.
* **Rolling Body Slam**: It will appear to do its backwards roll that usually ends in a flying back slam, but instead it emits fiery gas and then rolls towards hunters with great speed and precision. The Blistering Uragaan will transfer the roll into a large leap, which the great hammer wyvern uses to crash into its enemy in one big bodyslam, creating a large burst of fire around the impact and either upswing or catapulting away all who are in the radius.
* **Blunt Ground Rip**: Using its flaming chin it drags the chin through the ground to soften it and then flips it's chin upwards, sending a large amount of earth and three rocks forward.
* **Power-hammer**: Blistering Uragaan will quickly slam its chin down three times before taunt to the air as flares shoot out by the sides of its chin. Not unlike a power-drill the HC Uragaan slams its chin at extreme speed, four times a second for five seconds. With each slam, it takes a step in a predetermined direction, moving until it ends in a fast Super Chin Slam. It will need to recover for three seconds after doing the slams, as its chin smokes heavily.
* **Ultra Chin Slam**: Blistering Uragaan stomps the ground as it builds enormous pressure to its head, raising the chin very slowly. As it reaches skyward it suddenly flips itself over around in a full spin by use of the chin and tail, bringing out the maximum force it wants. Coming down as chin only, an enormous ravine and crater of flame is burst open around the ultra impact, along with a wide reaching tremor that can easily one shot hunters in close range and place them in a pinned knockdown. After the rest of the body lands, it will have to rip the stuck chin out of the ruined ground.

### Blistering Mode

* **Blistering Fury**: When the Variant is at 25% health, the Variant will stand in place and emit a shrill roar uncharacteristic of an Uragaan. It then starts doing chin-slams which increase in speed to an extreme. The ground around it breaks apart from the quaking and from the heat being generated, the Gaan's carapace and ore begins to burn. The vibrations shake the rocks on it loose onto the crackling earth and emit flames. With a fast big smash of its chin the ground bursts into fire and soot, combining with the rocks combusting into Blastblight inflicting shrapnel. The Blistering Uragaan emits a bellow, now truly blistering with rage and heat. It will now only change area to go to its sleeping place when near death.
* **Blister-belly**: Now, unless it is wounded, the belly of the Blistering Uragaan will always have a heat aura and leave burning ground where it walks.
* **Top Heavy**: The Blistering Uragaan will no longer do its standard rolls anymore in Blistering Mode, only the heavy variant.
* **Powder-quake**: When the Blistering Uragaan slams its chin now, the area that are in range of the quakes produced from them emit a powdery steam then explode after a second. Any hunter caught on a patch will be upswung. This is due to the powderstone on the chin blazing with heat, and only breaking it off can neutralise it, turning it into heated ground instead.
* **Rock Eruption Slam**: Blistering Uragaan's semi-ultimate attack. It smashes both its chin and tail through the fiery ground at the same time, making its chin begin glowing brighter and its tail will be engulfed in blast clouds from the heat exposure. Blistering Uragaan then gets into a sturdy position with its tail held up high and its chin unreachable to most melee weapons as it braces all the throw-able rocks on its body for great usage. If hunters manage to flinch by damaging its head and tail enough at this stage, it will fall over hard and drop a shiny item. Should this not happen, then there will be no stopping the attack. Blistering Uragaan will begin spinning in place, the chin being the main momentum of force as it shakes off countless amounts of severely blast primed rocks all around itself without any safe spot. As the rocks land they begin emitting large blast clouds which very quickly begin merging with each other to create a massive smokescreen around Blistering Uragaan of orange, red and white that no hunter can breach. In the centre of the hellish scene and with no more rocks to throw, the Blistering Uragaan slowly lifts up its blazing chin and finishes it with one super fire saturated chin slam. A gigantic explosion of extreme proportions is created as the fire triggers every single rock that was laid down near instantly. The Blistering Uragaan itself is flung from the power of the blast, flying away to a distance onto its back, leaving it vulnerable for a few seconds. The explosion engulfs anything in and near the circle of rocks in an intense light, while also creating lava bursts around it and also firing flaming earth rocks at random places and ranges. Hunters in the midst of the explosion stand no chance at survival without other hunters assistance with health regains. Everything else is also extremely dangerous, with both the fire bursts and rocks sending hunters flying away with huge damage. The explosion also creates Dragon Wind Pressure in a wide area, which also brings minor damage as it is a heatwave.
* **The Spinning Special Meteor**: The Blistering Uragaan's ultimate attack. Blistering Uragaan will yell and drag its chin around through the ground, then fling a larger than usual explosive rock directly into the hole. Blistering Uragaan will proceed to use a Super Chin Slam to push the explosive rock deep into the hardened earth, where it begins to glow. The Blistering Uragaan then yells from the height and then dives into a roll position. The rock explodes into a miniature eruption, sending the Blistering Uragaan upwards and rocketing towards hunters. The Blistering Uragaan impacts the area with such power, the surroundings are bathed in red dust and the whole area is covered in blistering rocks that explode very shortly after they all land. The damage of the impact alone is enough to one shot hunters, and the rocks can finish them off with bad positioning. A Dragon Wind Pressure level gust blast through the area and a quake rumbles through the locale. The Variant rises back on its feet with a hissing growl.

## Trivia

* The Blistering Uragaan's inspiration for several of its ablities and attacks come from the Segmented Crawbster from Pikmin 2.
	+ Its other attacks were either thought up by thinking of the Uragaan's design and concept, and "super" versions of its normal attacks from the Main and Frontier series.
* It was also made because Chaoarren felt Uragaan had potential for a Variant, along with him liking the monster to begin with.
	+ Originally, it was a Hardcore species of Uragaan, but after a revisit to the concept after the shutdown of Frontier, Chaoarren decided to change it into a Variant due to 5th Gen creating a new standard for them.
* Blistering Uragaan has surprised many for how powerful it is compared to its cousins.
