I'm pretty bad at pacing/etc for R Ping so can I just provide a bunch of Kaiju/Mecha/Concepts to be used as desired? I was figuring providing some unused Eldritichian ideas at the least if you'll let me.

Ooh, Eldritchians...

Although, maybe tweak them a bit.

The Eldritchians had an incredibly dark edge, while the Warrior Class are supposed to have something of a slightly silly edge.

The Eldritichians aren't actually bad guys, and the main reason the war started was because of cultural differences and some poor communication. Anywho, here's a somewhat incomplete file for the first of my ideas...

  • Name:
    • Designation:
  • Nickname:
  • Appearance: Outwardly appears to be a quadrupedal creature made of black and crimson metal that vaguely resembles a human/dog-like entity, it actually contains millions of small black creatures that can be considered biological nanites.
  • Features/Powers/Abilities: The armor that it wears is extremely resistance to heat, and is durable enough to survive physical force nonstop for about an half hour. However, there isn't many movable components meaning it cannot walk backwards, only capable of moving its limbs enough to walk forward and slightly to the left & right, and its inflexible enough that it can't dodge/bend out of the way of attacks.

Its true form however can extend from the armor, sprouting out as extremely flexible strands that from a distance seem to be made of darkness. It's true body however can only exert enough physical force to at most restrain a Knight, though it makes up its lack of physical strength with the ability to generate extreme amounts of heat which can reach the point of melting through a Knight's armor. In addition, while it cannot perceive light it has an extremely refined heat-sensing ability which it uses to navigate and locate targets.

The main reason it uses armor is that its real body is sensitive to light, experiencing extreme annoyance at worst from unfocused light such as lamps and sunlight to parts of its body & the surrounding area experiencing instant obliteration from focused light such as lasers. However the armor also enables its heat generation to be focused into a moderate form of pyrokinesis, primarily firing a destructive heat beam from its "mouth" among other applications such as flame armor and fire projectiles from any point of the suit. Without the suit its an extremely fast shape-shifting mass that can squeeze into any opening regardless of size. Its natural healing factor and growth are also dependent on darkness, thus breaching the armor is the easiest way to permanently destroy it as light completely disables its regenerative abilities. Finally, as long as one of the million little black creatures composing it survives it can eventually regenerate in whole.

  • Backstory:
  • Personality:
  • Other Notes:

Since I'm just supplying ideas and Kaiju/Knights, can I just leave stuff like its names/backstory/personality blank?

Since we're just tossing ideas around like madmen, I don't see why you would need to fill out that backstory and such. Well, not until the sign-up, anyways.
