Lunastra

Lunastra is a medium sized, blue-tinted, female gender of the Teostra. They commonly live in high cool towers, and hot regions like the volcanoes. Lunastra has also been spotted in the desert by few hunters.

=Battle= Lunastra, and their male version Teostra, are unique monsters because they actually use their Flame Sac to produce a fire breathing effect, rather than just a beam or a fireball, and they can still pounce on you even when they are affected by Flash Bombs. The Lunastra can produce a highly flammable powder and, by using its wings, spread it across the air. It then gnashes its teeth to create a spark, which then causes the powder around itself to ignite and explode. The explosions have random range, they can be either close, descently away or very far away from where she's standing. They are weakest to dragon-based weapons. To prevent Lunastra from using her fire aura ever again, you must break either the wings, the horn or cut her tail. Inflicting any kind of ailment also temporarely disables her fire aura. Poisoning her is the best way to get her down, because the poison not only disables the barrier for a minute but also damages her. Another way to make her fire aura stop is by throwing a Flash Bomb. If you smash Lunastra's head then you can get a Lunastra Horn in your reward screen.

In MHF2, after slaying a Lunastra, the old peddler woman will give you a Biography of the Hero of Jumbo, which can be used to craft a one handed sword.
