Zellard Headcanons Pt. 3

To celebrate today’s awsome Monster Hunter Sunbreak trailer.  - Zellard isn’t one for large parties. Sure he shows up as an important political memeber of the village. However, he keeps to himself, sipping wine in the corner of the room. 

- Zellard is a lover of fine wine as much as he is a lover of tea. He buys imported kegs of wine for himself and often drinks late into the night. The Wyverian sometimes passes out with a good book in one hand and a bottle of red wine in the other. 

- Despite no longer actively hunting, Zellard still works out and eats healthy. Sure he’s no longer the absolute hunk he was as a young man, but he is still well built and quite the looker. 

- Many Wyverian’s sneak a look when Zellard is doing his morning jog as he rarely wears a shirt. Plenty simp for the soft spoken, sexy Wyverian. It will take more than time to ruin Zellard’s handsome physique.  

- Zellard may be quite muscular and a skilled fighter, but he is still quite old and full of aches and pains. He sometimes rewards his cultists for rubbing his aching back and feet, something some are all too eager to do. 

- He often goes into a beserker rage during a hunt, a far cry from his calm fecade. If unarmed he will use his hands, feet, and even teeth at a moment’s notice. Zellard doesn’t show this side often, but none would want to be on the recieving end of his blade. 

- Lastly, Zellard isn’t used to physical affection, but boy does he need it. He very well could wind up sleeping on top of his significant other like an oversized cat. There is no hope of moving him either, for you are now his bed lol. 

My heart 🥺

Can we talk about how the Royal Ludroth in Mahana wakes up and protects the little child next to him once Oltura rises??

This is such a good point I never realized, but for my first time playing I was dumb cuz I knew nothing but now I know a lot since I've played for a while now, this is such a great idea 😍

Unpopular Opinion: Ratha shouldn’t have gained the ability to fly

Hear me out:

Story-wise, Ratha is YOUR Monstie, your baby, the little ceature that you’d risk your life for. But Gameplay-wise? He doesn’t exactly bring much to the table, and aside from fancy wings and a slight variation in his kinship-animation, there’s nothing he can do that a normal Rathalos can’t do as well.

I don’t know about you, but for a Monstie that I was stuck with for 90% of the game, I cared surprisingly little for Ratha. The only battle that I was stubborn enough to ONLY use him was the final Oltura-battle, and even then I didn’t care all that much for the final cutscene.

Tbh, as soon as I finished the main campaign and could swap Ratha out of my team, I replaced him with an Azure Rathalos that I named Dash, and this absolute King stayed on my team until I reset the file.

Ratha just… doesn’t feel important, especially after the final battle where you can find Rathalos-eggs everywhere.

Personally, I feel like Ratha should have been the ONLY normal Rathalos obtainable in the game. And in addition to that, I think that he shouldn’t have learned to fly.

Why?

Story-wise, Oltura is the Monster with the Wings of Ruin. And Ratha’s Razewings? Well. Why exactly his wings are crippled when he hatches from the egg isn’t really explained. Personally, I would have LOVED for Ratha to keep his spooky Razewings and just be a ground-based Rathalos.

And in the cutscene where he gains his wings… what if his flight to save the MC would have looked like his chase after the Rage-Rayed Legiana, where he got all grey and his wings glowed in this creepy, purple light?

Just… imagine. MC gets thrown overboard, Ratha’s powers awaken for a short moment and his wing-membranes open just like in the Legiana-Cutscene and he flies after the MC, all while looking like he came straight out of Satan’s basement.

And instead of him, MC, Ena and Navirous flying off into sunset on Ratha’s newly awakened wings, he plunges down onto the ground after having caught the MC, his wing-membranes close up and he keeps his crippled wings. Because… he doesn’t have the Wings of Ruin.

It would have played nicely into this “Ratha’s power can be used for good”-talk: Ratha uses his ‘dangerous’ powers to save his Rider, without changing his appearance to look like a normal, “good” Rathalos.

(idk how the cutscene would have played out then, with Ratha not being able to escape the Hunters by flight, but idk… maybe his kinship-attack would have gotten stronger and he just shoots the ship out of the air with a big-ass fireball-)

Just…. I think that Razewing Ratha has TONS of wasted potential. I don’t think anyone plays the endgame with him on their team, just because he doesn’t bring anything unique to the table that no other Rathalos can also do.

On my first playthrough, I honestly hoped that Ratha would stay flightless, just because it would fit the whole “Wings of Ruin”-Narrative and throw in some confusion. Like-

“One beat of his wings could bring ruin to the world.”

“Okay, but… how can Ratha beat his wings if he can’t fly.”

“….well-”

And the Oltura rolls up with its six wings and the MC and Ratha just stare at everyone that gave them shit and are like “AH YES, RATHA HAS THE WINGS OF RUIN, NOT THIS MOTH-LOOKING-MOTHERFUCKER!”

(how the Riding-ability to fly would have been unlocked if Ratha couldn’t fly,,,, uuhhhhhh…. idk. Cheval, Avinia and Alwin all have Monsties that can fly, maybe there could have been a scene where Monsties and Riders get seperated and are forced to work together with the other person’s Monstie, so that MC then can fly around on Rathi, Shulk or Frostfang to search for their partners from above. Idk, just give me Razewing-Ratha back, his wings were cool)

I want this dragon so much 😍😍😍

SO PROUD OF THIS 😍😮‍💨😭😝🥰
