While it shares many features with the imposing Kushala, several major differences make the Ahuitzotl a unique and formidable predator. The most notable difference, is the zotl's tail. Measuring 2 times its body length, the tail boasts incredible flexibility, and is lined with stiff, hair-like scales, leading up to a three-pronged "claw". This claws produces and conducts electricity, for use as the Ahuitzotl's primary weapon. In addittion, the tail often appears to have a mind of its own, lashing out randomly, grabbing the hunter, and even destroying their items while the Ahuitzotl rests. To further differentiate itself from the Kushala, The ahuitzotl bears an elaborate pair of horns, shaped vaguely like lightning bolts, that are used to create damaging electrical arcs, and, in a strange evolutionary twist, has lost the ability to fly. Majestic, regal wings, have been replaced by armored, obsidian shields. Four erectile shields ( 2 larger, 2 smaller), adapted from wings, are able to deflect all but the strongest attacks. In combat with a hunter, the Ahuitzotl strikes with its deadly horns, deflecting shields, and of course, its whip-like tail, dealing out lightning-fast combos with potentially game-changing side-effects, even completely negating weapon affinnity. However, its attacks are highly telegraphed, and deal subpar damage, with the real danger being posed by the sheer speed with which attacks are launched. In addittion, breaking the horns or tail causes periodic shortouts by the monster, whereupon it must rely on its physical attacks. Finally, as an added weapon against the Ahuitzotl, sonic bombs thrown at the tail will be swiftly grabbed, and will subsequently damage the zotl heavily, due to the sensitivity of its second brain.
