Great Thunderbug
An abnormally large Thunderbug raised inside the body of an elder dragon and known to inhabit the same areas as its former host, its electrical attack is deadly. This bug has various uses as material for crafting weapons and items.
A giant Thunderbug that floats in the air in places like the Tower and the Jungle. It drops valuable items such as Thunderbug Juice and Thunderbug Jelly. It can discharge electricity that paralyzes hunters, so it becomes quite a nuisance during a fight with a large monster.
