Name: Otachi
"What use does a living weapon have in the world?" Full Name/Nicknames: Otachi
Gender: Female
Age: Unknown
Maximum Size: 63.1 meters
Race: Alien Kaiju (specifically "Rift Kaiju")
Faction: Alien; formerly Rift Kaiju
Personality: Otachi is a kaiju who at this point in her life is somewhat confused about what to do. Broken from the hive mind of the Rift Kaiju, her newfound independence is not exactly something she has fully explored as of yet. She feels a maternal instinct in regards to the infant clone of herself that she will give birth to at a later time, and possesses a desire to learn about the world and what she really wants to do for herself as well. Admittedly she has some fear of facing her brethren, though this fear is offset somewhat by her innate genetic aggressiveness and ferocity as a Rift Kaiju that she can utilize in her favor when it comes to a fight or conflict...or to rend her fellow Rift Kaiju if they come after her and her baby. Still uncertain of humans, uncertain of other kaiju, it can be said that at the start of things she is a "rogue" sort of character who could really go one way or the other depending on what happens...
History: Otachi is a Rift Kaiju, designed by the Precursors and being cloned from a single strand of DNA to become an entirely unique sentient and powerful bioweapon of the alien race. In her case, she was designed to be a Category 4 Kaiju, one that would be smaller in size than many of her race but would bear a small array of biological weapons at her disposal. She was even designed to be able to take on human form for the purpose of infiltrating human cities before transforming into her gijinka and/or kaiju forms and leveling them to the ground. Built to survive in multiple types of environments, Otachi is capable of surviving in places such as on land, underground in extreme heat and high temperatures, underwater, and even in environments such as outer space that have no air. Indeed, tactically speaking she like other Rift Kaiju were anatomically designed with their effectiveness as weapons in mind. Though after her creation, Otachi was pitted in to-the-death combat against her fellow kaiju in the Anteverse, the world of the Precursors, to kill each other off so only the strongest kaiju would be sent through The Rift to attack humanity.
As it were, Otachi was the winner of one of these Precursor-engineered bouts, and was sent through The Rift to destroy humanity. Except...when one little error in her design arose that broke her away from the hive mind the Precursors used to keep the Rift Kaiju in-check. As it was, Otachi was experimentally designed to already be pregnant with an infant version of herself. Eventually her body would automatically give birth to her own clone that (with her previous memories and mental state passed to it as well) would be able to grow and survive to become a copy of Otachi that would be able to lay further waste to humanity. Supposedly, this would create a line of self-replicating kaiju able to live over multiple generations and learn how to better survive and wreak havoc on the world.
Yet the presence of this clone within her created a unique sense of "maternal instinct" within Otachi, spurring on a desire to protect herself and the infant clone contained within her body. It was this that eventually came to cause errors in her "cognitive programming" that would inevitably break her (and her infant clone as well) away from the kaiju's hive mind in a rather permanent manner. This event also left her with a budding sense of independence and wondering what she would do. Her more base programmed desires to go to cities, to destroy humans and lay waste to their habitations, they were still there but were not as strong as they had been before. Her ability to telepathically communicate with other Rift Kaiju also remained intact, though it was not the same as if she had remained a part of the Rift Kaiju's hive mind. In short, it was a new leaf being turned for the Category 4 Kaiju, one that even now...even now she is trying to understand.
Powers/Abilities:
-
Two Brains: Otachi possesses two brains within her body, one that controls her cognitive functions and one that controls her motor functions. Both brains are synchronized together, and together give her a rather good ability to process things due to the workload being split between her two brains.
-
Clone Pregnancy: Otachi is pregnant with a clone of herself, one which she will eventually give birth to and will pass her memories on to in the process. This "baby kaiju" is protected by her own body's systems, so even if she gets involved with combat the baby will be protected from harm.
-
Wings: Her wings are stored inside her forearms for protection, folding out from an elongated, double-jointed fifth digit. Otachi is capable of flight to the edge of space, even when her legs are carrying something as heavy as a Jaeger.
-
Back Spines and Tail: She has a long tail with bony plates along her spine, as well as three prehensile pincers on the end of the tail; the tail is a potent weapon that can be used as a club or claw.
-
Acid Sack: Her bottom jaw in gijinka and kaiju forms is capable of splitting in two for her to spit a blue, extremely corrosive acid, as seen when it melts the thick armor of a Jaeger and when it easily liquefies the side of an office building.
-
Other Capabilities/Abilities: For a kaiju, she is very fast even among Rift Kaiju whether on land, while swimming, or even while flying. Her strength is respectable among her peers, considering her ability to lift an entire, full-size Jaeger nearly into orbit at her size. In terms of armor, her underbelly is a weak spot, though the rest of her is more suitably highly armored to take hit and to protect her from damage.
Her blood like that of other Rift Kaiju is called "Kaiju Blue" within the Jaeger Program, and is extremely toxic and acidic when coming into contact with things other than her own body, which is one reason the Jaeger Program has created weapons that will harm Rift Kaiju but will also cauterize their wounds to prevent the kaiju blood from getting everywhere. Further, upon being exposed to the air after a kaiju's death, the kaiju blood can turn into a gas to stain and contaminate the environment itself...eventually to render it toxic and inhospitable in proper enough amounts. In tyhe case of Otachi, her blood is ranked as having a "severe" level of toxicity above that of prior Rift Kaiju before her that were created by the Precursors.
Her tongue also has a flowering and bioluminescent structure which she apparently uses either as a grasping mechanism or an additional sensing organ (similar in function to a snake's vomeronasal organ).
-Size Manipulation/ Form Change: As a gijinka she can grow up to 50 meters, and in her kaiju form she reaches her max height. Cannot alter her size in her human form. She can also change her form between her gijinka form, her human form, and her kaiju form at will, which allows her to adapt to a situation or even blend in within a human population.
Other: (none)
