Guran doesn't just LOOK like Fatalis, he basically is one! Body structure (like you said, long neck+slightly hunched biped or on all fours), but also most of the same attacks (claw swipe, body slam, meteors/fireballs) and an armor mode! He even has the Fatalis's feature of being a living catastrophe and the highest thing on the food chain in it's environment, only powerful creatures like adult Akantor and Alatreon would dare challenge it. He also has three carves for each body section, and his weapons have extreme elements (the Crimson Fatalis GS in MHFU had the highest elemental value in the game!)  He seems to be a subspecies though, since he is fairly different in a few ways. Hopefully it doesn't gain great amounts of power with age like it's relatives though!!
