QURUPECO:

Concept: So in love with this. A relatively weak moster that uses other beasts to do its bidding using mimicry is a brilliant idea, and executed flawlessly. 10/10

Design: Also a great effort. Though he's usually a bit too vibrant for the areas he appears in, his colours work well together. The influences from Frigate birds and various waterfowl are evident and interesting. I like the way his tail unfurls and his trumpet horn expands. 9/10

Sound: Uses the basic D. Isand theme, so no comment there. His array of chirps, honks, roars give him a lot of character. 8/10

Gameplay: He's an interesting fight. One moment you're dominating this weakling, and the next you're dodging fireballs from an angry Rathian. Some may call it annoying, but it gets uniqueness marks from me. The way he jumps and dances make him one of the most likeable monsters in the game, in my opinion. 8.5/10

Equipment: Wide area is a useful perk, but there's not much else to this set. Stick with upgraded Jaggi. His weapons are pretty okay, and worth making, as they can be improved into some great high rank weapons. 7.5/10

Overall: A lovable, vibrant bird wyvern with some tricks up his sleeve. He offers unique gameplay and a fun experience for all. 8.5/10
