Name: Shrike
Type: Elemental Golem
Class: Basic
Stats:
HT: 60 mt
WT: 180,000 tons
Wingspan: N/A
Average Landspeed: 480 kph
Top Airspeed: N/A
Top Swim Speed: N/A
Territory: Nomadic
Description: Shrike is a being made entirely out of metal. It looks somewhat rigid and stick-like in appearance. It is humanoid, with a somewhat skeletal frame. It has four fingers on each hand and the end of each leg resembles a tree’s roots, small metallic appendages burrowing into the earth around a flattened foot. Its head slightly resembles the shape of a human skull, but is solid except for two seemingly empty eye sockets. Long spikes stick out of its joints on places such as its elbows and knees.
Combat Style: Shrike is very durable, and fights with great force. It acts somewhat mechanically, and cannot strategize as well as a human or other sentient being. It simply fights it’s opponent untiringly until it wins or the opponent leaves. It seems to favor generating large spikes of metal to damage and hinder enemies.
Strong Stats: Constitution, Strength, Speed
Weak Stats: Intelligence, Specials
Weaknesses: Shrike is harmed by lightning and other such attacks, and intense heat softens its form and thus weakens its defenses.
Special Attacks and Attributes: Golem: Shrike is immune to most mental attacks, as it is a golem and has no mind to be attacked. As well as this, Shrike never gets tired or needs to do things such as eat, sleep, or breathe.
Armored Frame: Shrike is made of dense, solid metal from the depths of the Earth. This makes it very resistant to physical attacks.
Rooted: Shrike can send small tendrils from its feet deep into the earth making it almost impossible to move or knock over.
Metal Manipulation: Shrike can manipulate its domain, metal. This power is mystical and more resembles terrakinesis then electromagnetic abilities. It currently can only use this power to manipulate the metal it is made of and metal it is physically touching. His most common use of this ability is slightly hollowing out part of his body, which slightly lowers its defenses, and using the removed mass to project long spikes which it attempts to skewer it's foes on. If it is contact with something such as an underground pipe, it can use that mass instead of some of it's own.
Origin/History: The Earth has long stood by and done nothing as Mankind ravaged its beautiful flesh. After thousands of years after the dawn of the humans, a larger threat arrived. It was the Kaiju. And in around only two hundred years, the battle between Man and these beasts caused almost twice the damage that was there already. A being was born in the very center of the earth. The Shrike was created and sent up through the layers of crust and onto the surface. Once there, it began its mission, to force mankind to relinquish their hold on the Earth, so that once again Gaia can rule and restore the land to its former beauty.
