A new kaiju for the Zilantus lore. When I started making the zilantus lore, I knew that I wanted to incorporate a mudskipper somewhere, but I wasn’t quite sure at the time. I have made a concept for as well as some info for it. A large kaiju taking on the form of a mudskipper. It inhabits the indo-pacific region of Africa, where excess radiation dumping and pollution has turned the land into one of mud and oil that can’t be refined. Due to this change from its typical environment, a set of claws are on its front fins, as well as two additional sets of hind fins following. This kaiju is able to adhere this crude oil to itself, creating a layer of protective armor. Due to this type of oil’s flammability, and this creature’s unusually high body temperature, the oil can ignite without warning, giving it a temporary boost in defense and offensive opportunity. Despite its initial dullness in color, certain light angles give this kaiju a beautiful coloration. When threatened, the fins along its back can be raised, and shook rapidly, causing a bright light, leading to a short blindness, which is just enough for the kaiju to escape. While this kaiju does have some threatening abilities, it is generally harmless and tries to avoid any form of conflict.
