## Summary

**King Ghidorah** (**キングギドラ *Kingu Gidora***) is a three-headed Titan who first appeared in a cave painting in the post-credits scene for the 2017 Legendary Pictures film *Kong: Skull Island*, then went on to serve as the main antagonist of *Godzilla: King of the Monsters* in 2019. He is the first incarnation of King Ghidorah to appear in an American-made film.

An evil alien dragon who invaded Earth in the ancient past, King Ghidorah clashed with Godzilla, who succeeded in sealing him away beneath the Antarctic ice. The organization Monarch discovered Ghidorah's resting place in the present day, and established Outpost 32 to study him, dubbing him "Monster Zero." In 2019, the eco-terrorist Alan Jonah, working alongside Monarch defector Dr. Emma Russell, unleashed Ghidorah from his frozen tomb in an attempt to release all of the Titans to restore the natural order. Being an invasive species, Ghidorah had no interest in restoring balance and resumed annihilating the global ecosystem, awakening all of the other Titans himself and bending them to his will. Assisted by Monarch, Godzilla and Mothra joined forces and engaged Ghidorah in Boston for a final confrontation. Ghidorah summoned Rodan to his aid to deal with Mothra, while Ghidorah overwhelmed Godzilla in one-on-one combat. After defeating Rodan, Mothra sacrificed her life to save Godzilla from Ghidorah, reinvigorating him with her energy and allowing him to finally destroy Ghidorah once and for all. With the three-headed terror vanquished for good, Godzilla took his place as the King of the Monsters, ending the rampages of the Titans previously under Ghidorah's control.

## Mentality

**Personality**: Monarch classifies King Ghidorah's behavior as that of a "destroyer," and considers him "Godzilla's ultimate nemesis." He lives up to this reputation upon awakening, acting as an invasive species and commanding the other Titans around the world to help him decimate the planet's ecosystems. Unlike Godzilla, Ghidorah demonstrates true malice and is shown to be openly hostile toward humans which are far too small to injure him, such as when he vaporizes a group of soldiers with his Gravity Beams, when he chases down and kills Vivienne Graham, and when he stalks and attempts to kill Madison Russell. King Ghidorah's three heads each have their own personalities, and are akin to conjoined triplets rather than a single individual with three heads. *Godzilla: King of the Monsters* director Michael Dougherty described the center head as "the one who's sort of the big brother and the most serious," the right head as "slightly more aggressive and tenacious," and the left head as "[displaying] signs of curiosity." King Ghidorah uses body language to intimidate Godzilla, shaking the ends of his tails like a rattlesnake and spreading his wings like how a cobra opens its hood. Ghidorah can also flick out his tongues like a snake or lizard.

**Intelligence:** At least **High Animalisitc**. Is animalistic, but can adapt to fighting styles of Godzilla. Easily identified where Madison and ORCA is. Made a plan to reshape the planet and understood that Godzilla was behind him by looking at his reflection. Each head possesses a different cognitive function.

## Power and Stats

**Powers and Abilities:** Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Flight, Enhanced Senses (Can hear sounds from supposedly thousands of miles away), Electricity Manipulation and Energy Absorption (Could absorb electricity and the energy of Godzilla through biting), Air and Weather Manipulation (Created Category VI hurricanes), Regeneration (At least Mid. Regenerated a lost head shortly after surviving his second encounter with Godzilla), Natural Weaponry (Jaws and tails), Radiation Manipulation (Can absorb radiation), Multiple Personalities (The middle head appears to be the leader), Immortality (Types 1, 2 and 3; his heads can live independently if severed. Regenerated his left head after being bitten off by Godzilla), Stealth Mastery, Self-Sustenance (Type 1 and 2), Large Size (Type 2; 158.8 meters tall), minor Body Control (Can retract the claws on his tails if needed to), Extraterrestrial Physiology (Can survive without oxygen. Stated that his resistance to the Oxygen Destroyer, a weapon that destroys oxygen on an atomic level in a 2-mile radius, was due to his alien biology), Telepathy, Resistance to Freezing temperatures (Survived being frozen in Antarctica), Magma Manipulation and Heat Manipulation (Stood in burning lava)

**Dimensionality:** **3-D**

**Existential Status: Concrete**

**Attack Potency:** At least **Country level+** (Fought many times with Godzilla and briefly fought a nuke-amped Godzilla before absorbing energy. Created a nuclear winter. Superior to MUTO Prime. Created a Category VI hurricane, which was generated by his flight), **higher** with Energy Absorption (Absorbed energy from a power plant and Godzilla himself and overpowered Godzilla who had just been freshly recharged by a nuclear bomb). **Multi-Continent level** via Environmental Destruction (Was causing massive storms to appear all over the Earth, would have reshaped the world after leading the rest of the Titans)

**Durability:** At least **Country level+** (Withstood the Oxygen Destroyer, a weapon that almost killed Godzilla. Withstood extended periods of Godzilla's Atomic Breath), **higher** with Energy Absorption

**Speed:** **Hypersonic+** (Faster than Rodan. Quickly traveled from Washington D.C. to Boston. Lifted Godzilla to the edge of space in a short amount of time), **Massively Hypersonic+** attack, combat and reactions speed

**Lifting Strength:** **Class GN** (Comparable to Godzilla)

**Stamina:** **Very High** (Throughout the short timespan from being awakened, Ghidorah fought Godzilla four times and Rodan, the former being amplified in their last encounter)

**Range:** **Several hundred meters** via sheer size and most of his applications of Energy Projection. **Planetary** with Weather Manipulation and Environmental Destruction (Was reshaping the world)

**Weaknesses:** Does not fight as effectively underwater as on land or air, as he was being overpowered by Godzilla. His regeneration speed depends in how much energy he absorbs.

**Notable Attacks/Techniques:**

* **Gravity Beams**: King Ghidorah can spit bio-electrical golden Gravity Beams from each of his mouths that are powerful enough to tear through buildings and disintegrate human beings. The fronts of his necks glow yellow while charging this attack. This attack is also shown to cause physical harm to other Titans. With only one shot, Ghidorah was able to shoot Rodan down and a concentrated barrage was enough to disintegrate Mothra. This attack also had enough force to drive Godzilla off the ice during their first battle in Antarctica, though it does no lasting damage to the Titan. He can charge his Gravity Beams far faster than Godzilla can charge his atomic breath.

* **Wing Lightning**: King Ghidorah can project lightning from the tips of his wings, albeit only after absorbing a large amount of electricity from Boston's power grid. In addition to damaging aircraft it strikes, this lightning blinds and temporarily stuns Godzilla, allowing Ghidorah to attack him. This ability damaged Ghidorah himself, scorching small holes in his wings, which were quickly repaired by his regenerative powers.
