Character Behavior
Kong is a gentle and peaceful protector for nature that is mainly his home. Being a gentle monster, Kong will be careful around fragile lives that either rest in the palm of his hands or standing somewhere close in the area he's present. Kong can be peaceful to any living organism that doesn't act as a potential predator or threat to its existence.

He is also a protector of the harsh natural wilderness he calls home. Anyone that comes in to cause a commotion of destroying the habitat he resides in; Kong will become aggressive to those strangers. Seeing the destruction will make the titan fight to the death, making sure he will destroy the invaders. His instincts can be similar to a regular silverback gorilla.

Character History:

Kraw is the natural world that Kong was born in, The Crossroads. Years ago, his species thrive on planet Kraw amongst the vast, diverse ecosystem that builds the wildlife known today. The primate titan was born into a family of only his mother and father with no other siblings. They were the only ones that made their band, while other bands of kaiju gorillas did exist at the time. The ape and his family lived many days together, thriving in the brutal jungle life that made this planet alive.

Unfortunately, some animals on this planet get threatened by extinction from time to time when humanity/humanoids cause it, natural world-ending events to create the next step of evolution or invasive species from different worlds. The giant simian kaiju gorillas faced a significant threat to their survival for many generations. A breed of reptiles that weren't native to Kraw one day appeared on the planet. Scientists, biologists, and the natives can't explain how they got to exist on Kraw, making the beginning of their existence mysteriously. Maybe someone accidentally/purposely released the invasive scaly reptiles into the tropical habitat, or they were created in a lab freak accident, escaping the compound successfully.

These creatures' names never really had a proper title made for them since the natives feared to talk about them, seeing what they did to their brothers, sisters, or families. Outsiders, explorers, travelers, and researchers decide to name these invasive reptiles skullcrawlers. One of the species that are on the skullcrawlers' caused extinction lists is giant simian kaiju gorillas. In this event, the young titan gorilla lost his parents when the skullcrawlers finally outnumbered them. He escaped while reptile predators brutally devoured the parents.

Over a couple of years, kaiju gorillas were believed to be extinct until an explorer recorded a sighting. People wondered that the lone adolescent gorilla was the last one alive. Many biologists want to capture the ape, saving him by preserving its living existence for a lifetime, but all have failed. In recent news, interviews with natives who witnessed the beast before giving a name to this last living kaiju gorilla called their god or king. His name is Kong.

Abilities/Skills:

Kaiju Body Build Ability:
Growth Rank 4 (800)
--Ongoing (0, Specialized Affinity)
--Limited (Cannot change size) (-200)
--Side Effect (Big Target) (-200)
Endurance Rank 4 (400)
--Finite (Can Become Tiring) (-200)
Move Object Rank 4 (400)
--Concentration (Lifting something that is maxed weight) (-200)
--Weakness (Unable to pick up anything that is completely on fire) (-100)
Speed Rank 2 (400)
--Ongoing (0, Specialized Affinity)
--Finite (Can be tiring if constantly running) (-100)

Kong is a kaiju at a young adolescent age, not fully grown, where adults were proven to increase larger over the years. Still, the primate appears significant and can tower over some of Kraw's wildlife species. The endurance that is present in his body is amazing for a kaiju but runs out of energy if he continuously uses it for a certain period of time. This will make him have to rest by climbing up or running off to a safe spot to rest for his endurance to fully regain it. His strength helps to pick up heavy objects by moving them out of the way if his path becomes blocked by something. To move something that is maxed weight will require Kong to concentrate on the object using both hands to lift or push, making him vulnerable to attacks. He can run at a remarkable speed for a behemoth, either on two feet or using both arms and legs to stand himself on all four. Over time if running constantly, Kong will grow tiring within ten minutes of constantly sprinting. He will require rest for somewhere safe to regaining his energy to run again.

Cost: 1000


Brutal Punching and Kicking Ability:
Damage Rank 4 (400)
--Indiscriminate (Due to the size of kong's hands and feet) -200

Primarily for fighting, Kong uses his fists to punch and legs to kick. His fighting style becomes a monstrous brawler when facing opponents. The size of his hands and feet is incredibly big compared to an average height human/humanoid, making it easy to accidentally injure his small allies.

Cost: 200


Durable Skin Ability:
Protection Rank 4 (400)
--Ongoing (0, Specialized Affinity)
--Finite (the skin can wear and tear over time) (-200)
--Weakness (Fire) (-100)

The skin surrounding the kaiju gorilla's body is resilient when it comes to being cut, bitten, or shot by projectiles. When torn, you can see red blood that will pour out. Some scars can appear on top of Kong's skin, showing the numerous fights the titan has encountered. Fire is his main weakness and can effectively damage his durable titan skin quickly.

Cost: 300

Affinities: Specialized

Total Essence Spent: 1500

Hey there, awesome character idea! I love Kong. Just a few notes on your abilities here, don't hesitate to ask further questions!

For "Kaiju Body Build" -- Please remember to describe how each of the modifiers on your Effects function in your description! For example, the Finite modifier for your Endurance Effect sounds more like a Side Effect right now. To make it sound more Finite, you would need to say that Kong's Endurance eventually runs out after a certain amount of time, and then explain how he can "regenerate" or recharge that Endurance.

For your Move Object Effect, as well, you will need to describe how both of your modifiers operate in the Ability description. For Concentration in particular, I don't think I understand what the "(Lifting something that is maxed weight)" note means.

In addition, the Finite modifier under your Speed Effect currently sounds like a Side Effect. If you want this to be more of a Finite modifier, you would need to reword this in your description along the lines of "Kong will eventually wear out over [time] and will require rest before he can move quickly again." Also, keep in mind that if you want your character to run very fast for an extended period of time (rather than in brief bursts of speed), you will need the Ongoing modifier.

For "Brutal Punching and Kicking" -- The Limited modifier on this Ability does not sound like Limited, at the moment. Limited has to actually inhibit the effectiveness of your ability (Only working on certain things/under certain conditions). For example, a laser gun that can only damage ghosts would be Limited, because then that laser gun can't be fired on other things and have the same Effect. Similarly, a sword that is only able to deal damage while the user is standing in water would also be Limited. Only being able to strike something within melee ranged isn't Limited, it just means you don't have the Ranged modifier.

For "Durable Skin" -- Since your affinity seems to be Specialized (Ongoing), you wouldn't include the Ongoing modifier's cost in the price of this effect. In addition, can you explain the Finite modifier in your description? More specifically, how quickly does Kong's Protection wear down? How often does he need to "recharge/recuperate" before his Protection is back to full effectiveness?

I made the edits on the first two abilities. Durable Skin Ability still needs the edits to be done but I ran out of time this morning. I will make the edits on that ability tonight explaining the finite. On top of that, I did add one more negative modifier to durable skin.

Everything here looks good to me. Character switch approved! You know what to do. Just make those edits to Durable Skin and I'll message you if there's any issues.
