Red Khezu, are medium-sized wyverns and the coloured subspecies of the Khezu. Also known popularly amongst hunters as the "Blood Khezu" because of its blood red-like tint to its flesh. Stronger and more agressive than it's white counterpart, the Khezu family are infamous for their 'Scream and Electric Leap' combo which, more often than not, kills hunters in one strike.
Unlike the Khezu however, who attacks close-range enemies with its head straight forward, the Red Khezu can be unpredictable as it prefers to flail its neck frantically about and will bend its head to nip at any hunters standing too close to its legs. However, the Red Khezu is still weak to attacks focused on its head and neck and can be easily overcome when tripped. This specific subspecies, interestingly, is immune to fire and weak to water, unlike the Khezu, and the difference in elemental weakness is believed to be due to its unique colour variation.
While both the Khezu and the Red Khezu are known for gripping onto the ceilings of caves ,dripping acid saliva or dropping down on unsuspecting hunters below, many hunters may recall that the Red Khezu is more 'known' for this behavior out of the two. Especially in the swamps, where the subterranean cave system is more expansive and thus the Khezu alternates between 'zones', giving it the oppurtunity to latch onto the ceilings and take hunters by surprise. Unlike the normal Khezu, this Red variant has a special attack where it extends it neck and flails it around wildly; this attack is quite fast and is one to watch out for.
Hunters are always advised to bring High-Grade Earplugs when facing off against a Red Khezu, since this monster's scream can easily give it an opening to electrocute you.
One must always be aware of their surroundings, especially what is above them!
