Lurchthorns (トツコツ Totsukotsu) are Forces of Nature enemies introduced in Kid Icarus: Uprising. They can be considered physically equivalent to the Underworld Army's Fire Wyrm, although their attack strategies and weaknesses are much different. These large creatures resemble skeletal fish with five visible bone-like structures underneath their body segments. Unlike the Fire Wyrm, Lurchthorns primarily use projectile attacks, which are unleashed from the eyes on these segments. In contrast to its Underworld equivalent, the monster’s main weakness is actually its head rather than its body.
In Kid Icarus: Uprising
Lurchthorns are uncommon enemies that first appear in the aerial mission of Viridi, Goddess of Nature.
Idol Description
This string of cannons lies in wait until an enemy draws near, at which point it activates and speeds through the air. The turrets on its joints can be destroyed, but targeting the head is the most effective strategy.
