After Nasir's ship runs aground on a reef near the Goldoan coast and gets ambushed by pirates from Kilvas in chapter&nbsp;12, Kurthnaga encounters Ike and helps him by providing fresh water and provisions and by directing a band of red dragons to dislodge the ship from the reef. Then, during the meeting of the Laguz royals at the end of chapter&nbsp;14, Kurthnaga tells the laguz royals about the previous events, confirming that Elincia had been aboard the ship.

===Analysis===
{{analysis}}
Kurthnaga is the only playable [[Black Dragon]] laguz in the game and is one of the last units to join the group, and he is forced into your party for the Tower of Guidance. Unfortunately, he starts at a severe level disadvantage, with his base stats being below average from what is expected for an endgame exclusive unit. As a dragon laguz, he has low [[speed]] (though not to the extent of the other dragon laguz in the game), which will make him more likely to get double attacked by enemy units. He starts with a strike rank of A, which is quite high, but not high enough to be reliable throughout the endgame. He may seem to be dead weight at first glance, but he is surprisingly easy to train up to snuff due to his decent growth rates. Unlike other dragon laguz, he gains the ability to fly when shifted, allowing him to pass over obstacles such as gaps; he cannot [[Canto]], due to not possessing it as an innate ability. Unlike other laguz, Kurthnaga's movement range actually reduces while shifted, harming his mobility.
In chapter&nbsp;4-E-3, none of the enemy dragon units will attack him or [[Ena]], including the boss, Dheginsea (though they are not invulnerable to his AoE shockwave attack). This is the perfect opportunity to start training Kurthnaga to ensure his stats are at their best potential. If given [[Dragonfoe]] and [[Paragon]], he will have no problem in wiping out all of the enemy dragons and will be awarded numerous level ups for his trouble; after successfully clearing out Dheginsea and his entire cohort, he will have built up solid bulk due to his excellent HP and above-average defense and resistance. Coupled with his high strength, solid Strike rank, and innate 1-2 range, Kurthnaga will be able to pull his weight for the final two battles.
Kurthnaga has the [[Night Tide]] skill, which gives a +5 [[defense]] and [[resistance]] boost to nearby units. This will help immensely during the final leg of the game, as much of the foes are at their strongest and most dangerous, making the extra durability a must have. As a laguz, he has enough skill capacity to use both Paragon and [[Blossom]] at the same time, which can help him with gaining stat increase for his level ups. Upon the completion of chapter&nbsp;4-E-3, Kurthnaga will gain the [[Formshift]] skill. This means he no longer needs to rely on items to maintain a shifted state, and prevents him from involuntarily unshifting in the heat of battle. The latter is very invaluable in the final two chapters as the enemy spirits have a very high movement range of 20, allowing them to mercilessly massacre anyone at any time. As mentioned prior, Kurthnaga's movement range is reduced while shifted, so he can use [[Celerity]] to make this limitation have less of an impact. He can learn [[Ire]] from a [[Satori Sign]], which is fairly basic compared to other mastery skills, as it triples the damage of his attack without any other effects when the skill is activated, making it functionally similar to a [[critical hit]]. The skill can be marginally useful as his [[crit]] rate tends to be nonexistent against enemies.
Kurthnaga has a water affinity which gives a boost to attack and defense. He won't have much time to reliably build strong supports with many units due to his late join time. Once he gains Formshift, he (assuming he was sufficiently trained) will have no trouble staying alive due to having built up a strong and reliable resistance against the numerous magic units remaining in the game. With that in mind, to ensure that he hits hard and accurately (especially against Ashera's auras), he can be supported by a unit with a fire or heaven affinity. Otherwise, since he functions best as a support unit, one may find benefit to partnering him with an earth affinity to increase his survivability.

===Role===
Kurthnaga was first made available between the period of October 7, 2021 through November 7, 2021 in a special Halloween variation as part of the [[Shared Bounty]] update.  The aforementioned Halloween variation of Kurthnaga is the only one currently available in ''Heroes'', based on his ''Radiant Dawn'' incarnation.  Kurthnaga does not have a normal variation currently available.

|blurb1=The Kingdom of Goldoa, land of dragon laguz, is the most mysterious realm in all of Tellius. How fortunate we are, then, that Goldoa’s very own prince is joining us for the harvest festival! Welcome, Kurthnaga!
|blurb2=Kurthnaga is wearing a special outfit for the festival that isn’t Goldoan, but it certainly does stand out from his usual attire. I hear it’s based on the garments worn by mages from a faraway land!
|blurb3=Speaking of standing out, just take a look at that magical weapon he has with him! I understand it’s a kind of paper lantern, and it’s giving off such an enchanting glow!
|blurb4=The dragon laguz of Goldoa rarely have contact with the outside world, so this must be a truly special day for Kurthnaga indeed. I hope he gets the chance to see all the sights the harvest festival has to offer!
