Description (First, I remember the rumors from 1996 on Mark's Godzilla Page...or somewhere else...that Death Ghidorah was going to have a skeletal motif.
Secondly, SOMEONE on this site, you know who you are, noted that DG was "the closest thing we've had to a sauropod," so I ran with it )

Living Volcano
DEATH GARUGARU

HEIGHT:
70 meters at the head

MASS:
27,000 metric tons

BIO:
The savage DEATH GARUGARU had proven too much for both the aging MOTHRA and the single Mothra larvae, the mother kaiju drowning while her infant watched helplessly...
Now that there was but one Mothra, she was compelled to complete the cycle and continue the fight; she went to the Tree of Life, a massive entity perhaps older that GIGAMOTH, and she cocooned herself about the tree, drawing strength from the Earth itself...

When Mothra was reborn, she looked more or less as she always did, but her eyes had a mystical green glow in place of the usual blue...

Meanwhile, Death Garugaru rampaged about the countryside, absorbing more and more energy from the forests, and soon he would be powerful enough to set all of Japan ablaze. Suddenly, Mothra appeared in the skies, shrieking her battle cry. Garugaru, his eyes hot with the single-minded malice of Gigamass, took to the air as though he were swimming, his bizarre wings creating a wave which propelled him at his foe.

The new, supercharged Mothra used every trick she had, and a few more; utilizing a new power that the Earth had given her, she commanded the elements to assault Garugaru! A great storm appeared and blasted him to the Earth, where huge roots lashed out and bound him to the planet's embrace, where his own magma-powers turned against him, and the ground erupted and exploded!

Mothra then performed a final sealing spell, successfully destroying this piece of Gigamass.

ABILTIES/ASPECTS:
- Flight
- Able to absorb energy of dieing plants
- Spits magma-like blasts from mouth
- Can control magma beneath the Earth and cause explosive shockwaves

UP NEXT:
Fairy Mothra

(ps - "Desghidorah" is a retarded name)

Gotta say your version of Death Ghidorah is very sleek and outright DEADLY looking with its Skeletal features and Sauropod like body. Nice touch with its Sail like wings (do they undulate during flight? Just trying to picture how its flight patterns work in action).

I personally miss its three heads and thought it was pretty cool incarnation of King Ghidorah, BUT, ya did a good job of remaking it into its own distinct dragon Kaiju. Would love to see Godzilla face this version of Death Ghidorah someday.

P.S. sorry to bring this up, but does "Desghidorah" actually translate into anything? I always assumed "Des" must mean death or something in Japanese but since ya called its name retarded I'm guessing there must have been a translation error or that it really doesn't translate into anything meaningful, lol

I know you find "Desghidorah" a retarded name, but that was because the english translators were to stupid make out "Death" from the pronunciation.

The same thing happened with "Birth Island" when it was called "Bass island" in the english dubs of the Heisei films.

Speedynat3 [2009-09-20 20:25:13 +0000 UTC]

Nice transition from Death Ghidorah to the Garugaru.
Desghidorah is supposed to be more like "Desughidorah" (desu=death)
......


Couldn't help it!
Yeah, Desghidorah doesn't sound too awesome...Death Ghidorah sounds better.
This is cool, too!

Totally sick reimagining-well, they all are, but this one gets points for being an especially clever revamp. It looks like a fusion of FW Gigan, Obsidius, and a sauropod, and the "swimming through air" is a clever idea. Also, "Des" is a frequent mistranslation of "Death" these days...F***ING CENSORS! What, do they think we're humans or something?
Makes me wonder what you're going to do with Keizer Ghidorah...although I'm guessing something like "magically-revived zombie Ghidorah". Hey, it can't be worse than the original beast...

hfbdfbvf [2009-08-05 00:17:22 +0000 UTC]

Athough it looks good as its own monster, I don't see how wings would fit in. Also, considering it fills in Desghidrah's role, I'm thinking it should have 3 heads. And you say Desghidorah is a retarded name, but you also think "Death Garu-Garu" is cool.

You know, as someone who isn't quite as up on the Kaiju's original history outside of the original Godzilla films, I'd love to see a quite note in these entries as to where these other monsters are coming from, in case I wanted to know more about their origins.

Amazing design work, as usual, by the way.
