Gorgiza, Radioactive Kaiju

Your basic legally-distinct-from-any-Tojo-properties kaiju.  You can use the same template for other similar creatures by swapping out Nuclear for other powers such as Flight, Fire, Toxic, etc.

Gorziga

It's your basic ancient mutant kaiju woken up and empowered by nuclear testing or atomic waste spills or something along those lines.  Mostly interested in finding more atomic power to feast on, and it isn't letting humanity get in the way of that goal.  Super-humans may fare a little better against Gorgiza, but it's still no pushover and any defeat is likely to be only a temporary victory.   

Description: A towering hybrid of dinosaur, glyptodont, and simian, with a hunched apelike posture, massive dorsal shell, long spike-studded tail, and a vaguely crocodilian head.  When angered its mouth and eyes emit an electric blue glow and arcs of energy begin to crawl over its armor and limbs.

Tactics

Gorgiza is a walking disaster area.  Radioactive Kaiju makes it very hard to damage, and it responds to attacks with Monstrous Rampage and Enraged Frenzy.  Heroes attempting to Overcome its Titan's challenge or inflicting serious damage may draw an Atomic Lightning attack, and the creature will make regular use of Massive Destruction to use the environment against the heroes.
