Kaijune 2024 - Day 18 [Chiral]
It took way to long for me to land on a design for such a basic-looking kaiju lol
=====
BIO:
The second kaiju to appear simultaneously alongside The Royal Throne, Spirahedrul was a snake-like kaiju twirled around itself. One of the largest kaiju on record, it lazily floated towards the city of Sydney, Australia soon after spawning. As the KDF were occupied at the time, and the Ascent had limited resources, it landed on the Eco-K to attempt to move Spirahedrul away from Syndey.
As an interdimensional being, it was unclear what Spirahedrul would do, but some birds flying into the translucent shield around its body disambiguated it's ability as turning anything it touched into spirals. Seeing the obvious danger this would cause, and already being in viewing distance of the city, Eco-K had to act fast. None of their Nailgun mechs were able to stop the kaiju, as the giant brackets they shot were simply deflected off. Multiple of the mechs had to risk themselves in trying to punch and tackle the kaiju, each of those mechs sustaining heavy damage as people were ordered to evacuate.
It eventually took some creative thinking by one of their experienced pilots, Yutaro, to defeat the kaiju. Finding a damaged Skipper drone in a local junk heap, Yutaro shoved the dron into the bracket gun of his suit, using the spire-like antenna as a makeshift baton, repeatedly smacking Spirahedrul into the ground, eventually ejecting from the mech as he body-slammed the kaiju, turning the entire machine into a giant bracket, spiraling itself into a metal cord due to the influence of the kaiju's ability. Getting stuck in the dirt, the kaiju dissipated, leaving a giant spiral gouge in the city where the kaiju had been.
Eco-K is looking into ways to subdue kaiju from other dimensions, as well as figuring out ways to defend against attacks non-lethally, as the attack proved that Nailgun suits alone were insufficient.
