0:55 Minor correction; Kushala do have skeletons, and instead of shedding "like insects", it's more akin to snake, which also do this...

[@reggie9010]

Has Capcom confirmed this lately? Because in their Monster Hunter illustrations book it says “have an exoskeleton and there is no way to differentiate between its flesh and bone. (structurally similar to an insect)”

[@Dinomatrix21]

@@reggie9010 Looks like you're both kind of right. Apparently, they said that it's metal exoskeleton is directly connected to it's bones, the way muscle is. So it does have internal bones, but it also has an exoskeleton. So like a bug if it had two skeletons, but in the shape of a reptile. Yeah, this biological mystery deserves an Elder Dragon classification.

[@reggie9010]

Dinomatrix21 truly an oddity even amongst elder dragons

[@greatestcrow2514]

Ah yes kushala, the elder dragon that you can't touch because it won't leave its tornados

[@theophrastusbombastusvanho849]

Adam Keane flash pods are your friend

[@MrRobot-0]

And LS, you need to cut the tail as soon ae possible.

[@GusLawrenson]

Poison it too

[@greatestcrow2514]

Sadly I am bad with a longsword and I couldn't be bothered to use poison. Using flash bombs really helped me though

[@samharris3375]

That's why y'all need a hornbro on a mission with you who can play you the negate wind song, :D

[@mindlessdoodles1840]

Giant lizards who can eat animals whole Hunters guild: *sleeps* Metal dragon boi Hunters guild: kill them all!!!!

[@misterhyde2817]

I wounder how to eat it!?

[@DanTKD87]

I was fighting Nerg yesterday and Kushala showed up. Kushala tried but Nerg literally threw Kush across the area. Freaking epic moment.

[@Strawfoot]

Ahhh that's so cool, I need to get them to fight. Nerg is a beast. I want to see a Nerg vs Gore Magala battle, I feel like that would be the coolest fight ever.

[@bobbyyogah1850]

I just...watched him throw a teostra

[@rafaelmartinez5026]

So the A Lister actually is confirmed to be the Cadet? Huh, it's Very neat how they include references that can never be noticed unless you were around in the previous games. Least now I got a voice to properly fit all the "cool" phrases he came up with in 4U.

[@Strawfoot]

Yep, I wish they would bring back more characters, I ran around the town to see if I recognized anyone else but so far I haven't seen any other familiar faces.

[@emenova3553]

He I think at some point referenced Gore Magala too

[@YourCrazyDolphin]

Oh. This explains a lot, actually.

[@gladiusbladeofthenorth9939]

Rafael Martinez They also reference shagaru magala

[@OMartinez91]

I never noticed that until now, and i played 4U

[@JoshCabatuando]

Good video! I would also like to note that kushala daora's skin is not an exoskeleton. It has an internal skeleton so it doesnt need an exoskeleton. Look at it more a snake shedding skin rather than a bug shedding it's exoskeleton

[@Strawfoot]

I would have thought more like a snake too but I went with what Capcom said in the art book they sold.

[@Sexyforanerd22]

Strawfoot Interesting. But why does he drop Elder Dragon Bones then?

[@rafaelmartinez5026]

Pretty sure that when it naturally dies of age, over the course of many moultings the oxidization of metal creeps itself deeper into it's system and fusing the metal to it's bones and organs eventually obstructing movement and slowly killing it. Don't remember if that was the actual truth but if so then it's a pretty bad way to go for them.

[@aaroncampbell586]

Z Awkward magician So since Elder Dragons came to the New World to die, we’re putting Daora out of its misery, giving it one final battle in life so that it doesn’t die that way instead?

[@darthplagueis13]

It certainly has an endoskeleton, not only because you can get elder dragon bones but also because a thin exoskeleton like that would not be sufficient to support the body, the elder dragon would simply collaps due to the amount of weight. It´s body structure is the structure of a vertebrate, after all there´s a reason bugs look like bugs and not like horses. I would assume that the skin simply needs to be shed because the rust makes it stiff and brittle as time goes by and starts hindering its movements.

[@BroteinShake]

Strawfoot! Hit me with some Teostra lore next bro

[@Strawfoot]

I'm on it! :)

[@TyreeWells]

Strawfoot then do other elder dragons, like Nergigante and kirin

[@TheDustyMuffinsss]

My favorite elder Dragon, which is ironic considering how i dont like any of the gear you can get from him. But theres something truly sinister about seeing the silhouette of one in the middle of a tornado...

[@gotmilk2123]

TheDustyMuffinsss Vaal Hazak has to be my favorite.

[@Strawfoot]

Yeah, that's one of the coolest thing visually in this game, that silhouette in the tornado!

[@asshat8242]

Heh... “Ironic.”

[@slenderhatesmillennials195]

I like Kushala, but damn he's annoying to fight in World.

[@tylermacgregor1320]

His armor set is one of my favourites in the franchise aesthetically, and he had all my favourite ice weapons in past games (I’m salty about his longsword being absent in World).

[@tsgames6083]

I really love the old and new OST! Specially the violin parts!

[@batzeseestheworld]

Your Videos are amazing. The short format is perfect for this kind of content. I really love the Lore behind these games and i would love to see more in the Future.

[@Strawfoot]

So happy you enjoyed it! I'll have more soon! :)

[@dracopo8862]

0:57 "Sith betrayed his kind , and the dragons were no more".

[@combativeThinker]

*Seath But wow, how did I not make this connection until now?

[@jaysan2674]

So what about the daughter that he sticks his crystal halberd into her gaping dragon into? ;) xD

[@minodude7137]

Another great video! It might be hard to research but I'd be very pleased if we got a video on the Ceadeus sometime. I've got very fond memories of him

[@Strawfoot]

Yeah, me too, he was such an amazing monster, that final cut scene in tri where he swims away into the sunset was so epic.

[@winkykat3396]

And his Theme is so Majestic, And It's even better if you Listen to The Heavy Metal version made by FalKKonE

[@Kozi15]

THIS! Everyone forgot the CEADEUS!

[@winkykat3396]

The Thing that makes me love him Even More is that he's just a Baby! And the Adult Version (Gold Beard Ceadeus) IS AWESOME!

[@sirsnap3876]

Yes ceadus was my first elder dragon gold ceadus being my second

[@vitriolicAmaranth]

Given you can see its spine when you cut its tail and can be rewarded elder dragon bones from hunting it, I would say Kushala does, in fact, have an inner skeleton in addition to its exoskeleton. Also you missed that the Tower from Frontier was constructed out of kushala parts by the ancient civilisation.

[@min2724]

vitriolicAmaranth Being able to fight him in the Arena would give you First Aid Med + and that doesn’t mean it’s part of his body. You can’t include game mechanics and balance procedures into lores.

[@vitriolicAmaranth]

Complete non-sequitur. First aid meds from arena monsters is a "balance procedure," and the exception to the rule. The drops you get from monsters in NORMAL quests and their descriptions form about 90% of the game's lore, honestly, which is extremely light to begin with (part of the reason I think strawfoot is misguided in clearly trying to become the VaatiVidya of Monster Hunter, though at least he has making his videos rife with inaccuracies and "facts" parroted from badly written wiki articles like Vaati does down pat, since this video aside that's what most of them are full of at this point). For instance, almost all monsters that breathe fire drop flame sacs or a variant of them, which are glands that produce a flammable powder to explain how they perform this seemingly illogical feat, but teostra doesn't, because its fire breath comes from the teostra gems in its body (as is the case with most elder dragons' abilities). Or to put it another way, if you're going to seriously insist Kushala is an invertebrate despite its readily apparent bone structure, its drops including its bones and ITS TAIL HAVING A VISIBLE SPINE WHEN CUT, then you definitely have to omit the notion that it has organs in its head and tail that allow it to control the wind simply because breaking those parts impairs its ability to do so in some games.

[@megamegawrites]

I’m actually really happy someone else noticed that the editable a-lister seemed really similar to the ace cadet, I was worried I was the only one

[@pukeipukei3968]

holy shit is spider danny from ifunny

[@megamegawrites]

pukei pukei and you are..?

[@pukeipukei3968]

One of you subs your_boy_griffith

[@tylermacgregor1320]

They also hint that the player hunter from 4U is part of the fifth fleet. One of the npcs mentions speaking to a member of the fifth who took down a “shegaroo” (incorrectly referring to the Shagaru Magala).

[@alamb245]

Fun fact : you can find khezu whelp in old kushala skin

[@MrRobot-0]

Arthur Lam yup the lithe mothefuckers keep draining you hp util you toss them or deliver them to the box.

[@figgyfire1364]

Arthur Lam im glad im not the one old hunter here :,)

[@Strawfoot]

Yeah I thought about mentioning that but I couldn't for the life of me figure out why the Khezu babies were actually there. do Khezu travel to cold mountain climates to lay eggs in elder dragon husks?

[@julianadams3710]

Strawfoot Khezu naturally live in cold mountains and they probably looks for small sturdy places like crevices for their eggs, Kushala skin would definitely keep the eggs safe.

[@azurearcade342]

I wish khezu was in mhw. Disgusting, yet fun monster to fight.

[@MakeTrapsGreatAgain]

When your the only one making lore videos.

[@Strawfoot]

I know, I need some competition!

[@glzpdz3237]

Strawfoot actually there was this other guy Basil Silly Six Shooter he did videos on the lore of the old civilization

[@MakeTrapsGreatAgain]

Glzpdz i did see that

[@smokeydopey8175]

my name is byf just started mhw lire, check him out, he has a diffrent style ,but is very good

[@notsae66]

Oceaniz does some really in depth ecology and physiology videos on different monsters that are quite good, if in a somewhat different vein.

[@CrimsnJck]

You are currently my favorite KZbinr you put so much time into your vids and work so hard to research monsters you deserve more man keep up the good work! Ps could you do Dalamadur some time in the future that would be awesome.

[@Reelyreed]

Great video once again! The more you make the more you develop yourself as a KZbinr, and how you portray yourself. Keep up the great work

[@Strawfoot]

Thanks again ReelyReed, it's been fun figuring this whole youtube thing out and comments like yours have made it all so much easier.

[@fistwizard2552]

Keep going strong Strawfoot, the videos just keep getting better and better

[@Strawfoot]

Thank you Jakob, I'm trying to learn with each video I make so I'm glad it shows.

[@kingVibe111]

It took me a second to realize the audience you were speaking to in the video. Very cool and I hope you keep it up.

[@Strawfoot]

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it, I'll keep making them for sure :)

[@garbaege9950]

Your narration is so good u earned a sub can u make a dalamadur or a gogmazios lore

[@Strawfoot]

Thank you so much Krishna, I will definitely make a video on those two, in the mean time you should check out my "Secret of the Rotten Vale" video it has some info on Dalamadur. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3Wad6yurc6lmLM

[@garbaege9950]

Strawfoot I already watched that today

[@GrievousKhan]

These get better and better. Keep up the good work my man.

[@Strawfoot]

Thanks Khan, I'm trying to improve, I feel like each video is a learning experience for sure.

[@007accessb4]

im happy you've improved your vid keeps getting better and better with each release cant wait to see you tackle teostra next

[@Strawfoot]

Thank you again 007!

[@onaga2452]

Gog (pun intended) the music is brilliant when your doing your lore videos of Monster Hunter.

[@Strawfoot]

Thanks Tatsu! Much appreciated.

[@manwalstewart5980]

I'm up for whatever lore you give next. The videos are both informative and enjoyable.

[@Strawfoot]

That's so great to hear. Thanks Manwal!

[@kierontemnov2452]

Kusha is simply the dragon that suits me best. I the cold colors of his skin, his icy eyes. He would be my best friend because I love cold weather and heavy storms. Flying through storms with Kusha would be a dream for me. I love him so much that it hurts. PLEASE HELP!

[@zanderjones668]

Your voice is really soothing, I learned things and relaxed simultaneously. Sorry if that's weird

[@Strawfoot]

Thanks, I appreciate that a lot, I was sort of nervous about the sound of my voice when I started making these so it's nice to hear.

[@burakka96]

Excellent work, I see you took my advice to heart and I'm glad it worked out for you. This video is awesome and I can't wait for the next 😀

[@Strawfoot]

Yeah man, the feedback was invaluable, keep letting me know where I can improve!

[@burakka96]

Strawfoot its a breath of fresh air to not only see a youtuber listen to advice but implement it as well. If you want any help with research just let me know. Id be glad to help

[@zanderworthy8903]

Great video, always nice to see a monster hunter video that breaths more life in the monsters us hunters brutally kill for epic armor. Keep up the the good work.

[@Strawfoot]

Thanks Zander, I really appreciate comments like this! Also when your brutally murdering the monsters just leave Dodogama alone, he's adorable and should only be trapped. :)

[@ANBUdoberman]

Dear god, this is amazing! please keep doing these!

[@liamfaulds5884]

Another grand video Love this metal dragon and not long had my first tussle with him in his shiny new MHW overhaul

[@Strawfoot]

Thanks again Liam! Yeah I'm also really digging his MHW overhaul, so fun to fight now.

[@kevro1749]

Another quality video of lore. Keep it up bud

[@HikeBikePhoto]

your voice sounds better in this video, much better. Really sounded like you were dying in the last one tho lol.

[@weegeeclaus695]

The kushala daora is also the most typical elder dragon. which means that the Kushala Daora has the largest population of all elder Dragons.(Sorry for my grammar)

[@Strawfoot]

I didn't know that! Thanks for the comment Weegeeclaus.

[@weegeeclaus695]

Strawfoot The handler will give you this info as soon as you can fight the elder dragons for the first time.

[@mattiaberti9160]

Where did you find that info? Wasn't Teostra the most numerous and common ED species?

[@kusawwwwww]

The Handler tells you. Once you gain access to the first Kushala quest in World, she gives you a little trivia, including that Kushala is the most commonly sighted Elder Dragon.

[@mattiaberti9160]

V P I checked. Teostra is the more numerous species of ED, Kushala like you said is the more commonly sighted (though still rare).

[@catden007]

Awesome vid man! Can't wait for the next one

[@hottacos2975]

"nothing will stand int the kushal's way" my flash pods beg too differ

[@Strawfoot]

Oh no, you found his weakness. Don't tell everyone, then they won't be impressed with my Daora armor anymore :)

[@xXF0G_D0CT0RXx]

Man you make good content. Bravo again.

[@Strawfoot]

Thanks so much James, I appreciate that!

[@azuza2525]

Great video. I'm new to the series and love any more I can get. Keep it up.

[@Strawfoot]

I will for sure, thanks for the comment!

[@coltj5907]

Nice video! Good storytelling

[@hotfire4642]

The editing in these vids are amazing. You should try investing in a better mic, it’d make the whole thing much better. Keep up the great work and keep improving

[@Strawfoot]

Wow, thanks so much, I've worked really hard on the editing and I'm glad it shows. I have a pretty decent mic but I think the problem is more that I can't isolate it from background noise and so I have to run a bunch of noise removal software which is killing the sound quality. Maybe I just need a better room?

[@robzilla8084]

I like how you refer to people whose first game was world as born in the new world. Nice touch

[@tristanswan1067]

Another Awesome video! Looking forward to the next one!

[@Strawfoot]

Thanks again Tristan!

[@morganpriest7726]

This is one of those monsters I don’t like hunting, he is just kinda vibing in the recess and looks so damn cool!

[@Clairsentien]

I love these lore videos. Keep them coming!

[@Strawfoot]

I will for sure. Thanks Andrew!

[@untoastedtoast098]

“The iron dragon skin is it’s best defense...” ummmm, no, I’m pretty sure that the twenty billion tornadoes are...

[@inka5915]

great video! Monster hunter got it wrong though, there would be no organs that allowed kushala to control the wind, it would have to do that by the irregular flapping pattern it has, this is revised in monster hunter world, as once it stops flying the tornadoes disappear and the animation for the tornado is a flapping spin. The breath attacks it uses are probably resulted from its lung capacity, due to the altitude of its natural habitat. The lore was spot on though!

[@tirtafirdaus1991]

There are some information about kushy in mhfu, specifically one of the NPC called elder professor or something talks about kushy at times. And from the book in the hunter's room. It's pretty hard information to get, as we need to play the game, make a progress in it to unlock new informations. It just a suggestion, if you, dear sir strawfoot, know any hunter that still can play previous generations of mh, then i suggest it might worth to do some work together (0_0 )

[@Strawfoot]

Yeah, I'll have to dust off my PSP and check that out, I've played through almost all the games in the series but I must have forgotten about that. Thanks for the tip, and for all the great comments.

[@HitHardHerbs]

Kushala Daora was actually a very common site and scholars have studied it alot and it has a very large territory that's why it was so common to see one.

[@Dragonrage9999]

Love the video man keep up the great work

[@Strawfoot]

I will for sure, thanks Crimson.

[@kierontemnov2452]

Strawfoot Your voice is like the silence before a storm

[@roger07ify]

Awesome video! keep up the great work :)

[@Strawfoot]

Thanks so much Rodger!

[@FilmDragons]

lots of misinformation, kushala is actually sighted a lot, and he does have a skeleton/

[@stoptakingusernamepls6381]

Probably my 2nd most favorite elder dragon right besides kirin

[@gwinnondavis9284]

Finally someone mentioned in their video about the Ace Cadet.

[@jinhunterslay1638]

If I remember correctly, Kushala is the only dragon to give your hunter character unique animations of being blown away by the wind in the old handheld games....

[@thebenis3157]

I love the Kushala Daora, it may be my favourite monster in World. But let's just think about its true power in the lore. It can literally change the weather where it goes, create tornadoes and control the wind, this would make it basically unstoppable against everything that isn't a Fatalis or an Alatreon

[@neronecrosade]

I knew it! I knew Excitable A-Lister was the Ace Cadet! Ah man, every day this game gets more and more awesome!

[@TheSamwardo]

Very nice bro worth a sub

[@raemonty94]

Do you stream? I think you'll be great at it! Loving your content! c:

[@Strawfoot]

I'm considering this but I wasn't sure if there would be much interest. Thanks for the comment, maybe I'll try it.

[@ashenphoenix6869]

Great vid!

[@Sylphlightning]

Amazing video!! Love the lore

[@Strawfoot]

Thanks Hydra!

[@dalton411970]

Good Lord almighty, such a cool creature! (No pun intended)

[@Strawfoot]

Thank you for the comments dalton! And yes Kushala is a really interesting creature design. At first glance it looks like a fairly run of the mill dragon but when you learn more about it its clear how much thought the designers put into this game.

[@thefortifiedwyvern6935]

Good Vid Dude

[@slashz7022]

Kushala daora has one of the most badass names in the game

[@taylorblack1]

Please continue to do these videos!

[@Strawfoot]

Thanks Taylor, I will!

[@saberius1948]

can you do lore and hunting tips for nergigante?

[@Strawfoot]

for sure! he's on my list so he should have a video soon! thanks!

[@aceflare2431]

Nergigante, the elder dragon born for the sole purpose of preventing other elder dragon populations from getting completely out of control. That's how I see it.

[@saberius1948]

ace flare more like the elder dragon born to ruin your life and kill everything it sees

[@aceflare2431]

Truly an apex predator among apex predators... Nature is beautiful. *Gets ripped apart by Jho*

[@sirsnap3876]

I love this vid relly good info nice hope you did teostra

[@kingofflames738]

Could you make a lore video on the Fatali brethren?

[@djmack6474]

You say they're pretty aggressive but actually you can just go up to one and be right in front of him and wont move a inch towards you the new world really made him pretty chill

[@figgyfire1364]

You know what i really hate?? That to me it sound like his name is "spoon of gold" cuz it sounds like the Spanish words for itX'D alot of Monsters in this series have spanish sounding names that have funny translations. Lol but amazing work on the video!!

[@Strawfoot]

There's actually a reason for that, one of the capcom devs was learning spanish while naming monsters. So that's why we have monsters names like happuruboka (hyper mouth) and Kushala Daora. The guy naming them was just smashing corruptions of foreign words together that he thought sounded cool. I read this, i think, in one of the dev interviews for portable third, sorry I don't have a link anymore.

[@papikitter7852]

A few interesting details involving the ancient civilisation: The ancient civilisation used Kushalas skin in order to build towers and other structures, almost culling this dragon out of existence. As fearsome as elder dragons are today, the ancient civilisation was even more so, being capable to use elder dragons as if they were slaves. It's said that's why there's so little of them in the wild, and reason why they're so aggressive. But who knows.

[@Strawfoot]

Wow, that's really cool, I appreciate the info. I honestly didn't know that or I would have included it in the video.

[@darthplagueis13]

The ancient civilization lore in general is pretty dark actually.

[@combativeThinker]

Yeah, they apparently genetically engineered themselves, which is why Hunter's have such ludicrous strength and can survive falls of indeterminate length. The ancients overhunting the elder dragons, which are walking natural disasters/elements incarnate also explains how the Fatalis manifested and destroyed them, along with everything else. The way I see it, the ancients overhunting the elder dragons upset the balance of weather patterns, climates, and ecosystems. All of this elemental flux combined with the fear and suffering of the elder dragons that were slaughtered by the ancients gave birth to the Fatalis, a manifestation of the elders' hatred of mankind.

[@laseraids6816]

I hope more videos like this will come they're so nice

[@Strawfoot]

So happy you enjoyed it. Thanks again Raid Hypo.

[@smokeydopey8175]

awsome job m8. 👏👏👏👏

[@housinengi9512]

Oh many i would love to learn more storys about Monster hunter 4 i didnt know the A lister was from it im so shocked

[@stygianhunter4898]

Elder Dragons like kushala are sentience beings they can think and if they wish speak with you

[@MrDLM-mg4rn]

Man, this video reminded me just how much I enjoyed the story of MH4U over World.

[@darthplagueis13]

Nice video, but the part about the Skeleton is nonsense. You can even obtain elder dragon bones from hunting it. It simply sheds its skin because it gets rusty and stiff which makes it hard for THe Kushala to move.

[@nickg9231]

Well done!

[@ogfloatzel4025]

Aggressive? Last time I hunted Kushala, he was chilling in Area 5 in the Ancient Forest and I just sat beside him, chilling as well.

[@Thememester439]

It also seems to have openings on its chest and stomach the allow it to expel large amounts of air from its body.

[@Strawfoot]

Oh, I didn't notice that! Thanks!

[@Thememester439]

Strawfoot it's hard to see while it's trying to kill you.

[@arisenprestige5717]

That’s interesting that Kushala was in Loc Lac, too bad we didn’t see it in Tri or 3 ultimate.

[@shinygod7310]

Who would win? A powerful hunter V.s ONE WINDY BOI

[@tylermacgregor1320]

Is the time gap between MH4U and World only 4 years? I thought it was more like 40 years based on little hints they give you here and there, like how they mention the slinger being invented 40 years prior, or how the Seeker, that first fleet wyverian hunter, wields an insect glaive, which was new around the time of MH4.

[@Strawfoot]

I think 4 years is more plausible given that the returning character Ace Cadet/Excitable A-Lister hasn't really aged much. Sorry I don't really have a better answer than that, I'll let you know if I find out anything for certain.

[@tylermacgregor1320]

Strawfoot Playing through the game a second time, I think you're right. I noticed far more hints at the A-lister being the Ace Cadet on my second playthrough, as well as an interesting comment from an npc who claims to have spoken to another member of the fifth who supposedly killed a "shegaroo"(obviously meaning Shagaru Magala). Could that be a hint that the player hunter from 4U is there with you in the New World? In hindsight I think the things I noticed were just oversights by capcom.

[@zacrylist5748]

have you done vaal Hazak or Nergigante yet? or are they not really possible?

[@Strawfoot]

I'm working on them, trying to find enough info to fill out the video, which is hard since they have only been in one game but I didn't find some old concept art of Vaal, apparently he has been around for a while. I wish I could get these out faster but I'm trying to keep the quality up. I should have a new video soon which will most likely be Vaal or Deviljho. If you find anything interesting out about the new guys let me know.

[@zacrylist5748]

no worries man take your time, i just kinda binged watched all your lore vids and i loved how you presented them, i may not be new to monster hunter per say but i never been a lore expert sadly, because of you thou i now know about the monster hunter manga i never knew existed so thanks a bunch for that

[@Strawfoot]

it's so good too! I'm kinda mad it's over though, 10 books wasn't enough :(

[@lewispatton6550]

Like the video, but I'm pretty sure Kushala has a regular skeleton. You can get Dragon bones from it.

[@Strawfoot]

That's what capcom says, he's just metal all the way through. I read it in one of the books. Yes I know you can carve bones from him but I also once carved two heads off of the same great jaggie sooooo carves don't always make sense in this game. :/

[@Gaspingindeath]

Awesome video, good sir. Like and sub

[@Strawfoot]

Thanks for the sub! I'm so very happy you enjoyed it!

[@Grieldric]

Kushala Daora really needs more attention from lore youtube, I feel like most people don’t know the Fatalis/ Castle Schrade level lore relevance of this guy and it’s just sad

[@thenewseorarek9625]

So the shedding part explains the kushala husk you find at the top of the hoarfrost reach, but it doesnt explain why you can still see the inside of its mouth and its tongue. Unless it sheds that too... ew

[@fluffdafire157]

Im sorry to be that guy but your saying daora wrong it's pronounced da•ora your adding the AE sound to the A keep saying it how you want but I'm just letting you know

[@duskbringer4583]

o_o . . . And this is when I realize that guy who I spoke with at ship was Ace Cadet...

[@Strawfoot]

I know right, I love stuff like that, I wish they would bring back more characters from previous games!

[@jordiramone6698]

Best one yet

[@robinchwan8980]

Great video

[@Strawfoot]

Thank you Petre!

[@MicrochipSlayer]

I didnt even notice that was the ace cadet from 4U

[@MrRobot-0]

My fristh elder dragon in freedom unite, in that game he could put the wind barrier anytime until you serve hos tail.

[@torrycook8288]

awesome!

[@slenderhatesmillennials195]

Hot!! I subbed.

[@Strawfoot]

Thanks for the sub dude! So very much appreciated.

[@lumbago9652]

Wait, Kushala has an exoskeleton and molts?! I had no idea!

[@AnonymousB460]

I am surprised that I didn't realize that he was the same guy from the ace hunter team in the previous title.

[@Strawfoot]

Yeah, a lot of people missed that. 4U was one of my favorite games in the series so I was really excited when I saw him again.

[@donovanjohnson8581]

My theory for how he makes the wind is he is able to change the temperature around him and given video games he can use that to make tornados

Interesting theory... even though nothing confirm its ability to controll temperatures via horn, it's very likely to be a power given by ED's bioenergy.

Yeah, he is so amazingly rad, I want to do a really good video on him so if you find any cool info about Nerg let me know. I'll keep digging though these books annd dev interviews in the meantime. :)
