Titans

**The Titans**: mindless, relentless, immortal killing machines. They can only be killed with a shot directly to the nape of their neck. In the franchise, they can range in size from around the same size as a human to a towering thousand meters in height. In 8th Axis however, the tallest they can currently get is a mere twelve meters. Though their size may not intimidate you, some of them have extremely powerful abilities that will result in any less talented soldier being eaten alive. There are twelve different kinds of Titans that a player can encounter on the server, all with their own unique abilities, names, and threat levels.

* The 12-Meter Titan. This Titan is as basic as basic gets, with no special powers or AI. Interestingly, it has the ability to harden its nape, but codewise is simply unable to do so. It will just go for the entity closest to it and attempt to either stomp it, devour it, or crush it. It poses next to no threat whatsoever.

The future codex entry for the 12-Meter Titan will read as such:

*"The most common and least dangerous Titan that has yet been documented. That said, while they reside at the bottom of the food chain for Titans, the rules for humans are very different. Countless brave Scouts have been smashed under the feet, crushed in the hands, or disappeared into the jaws of these monsters"*

### Health

TBD

* The Abnormal Titan. This Titan is much like the 12-Meter Titan, however it is a bit smarter, and much like in the anime, given the choice over one player close to it or a large number of players farther away, it will choose the group.

The future codex entry for the Abnormal Titan will read as such:

*"Strictly speaking, any Titan that displays behavior greatly deviating from that of a normal Titan falls under this category. However, the most common use of the Abnormal status is applied when referring to a Titan that, when given the choice between a few people next to it and a group of people farther away but far larger, will choose and pursue the larger group"*

* The Aberrant Titan. This Titan is the most dangerous of the three basic Titans. It is faster and stronger than the others, though still can be killed easily. It has no special powers.

The future codex entry for the Aberrant Titan will read as such:

*"Very little is known about this species of Titan. The status is used to describe variations of the Abnormal Titan that seem more advanced than usual, be it in the field of intelligence or sheer danger. And make no mistake, they are dangerous."*

* The Cognizant Titan. This is where the canonical Titans come to an end, and where the Titans unique to 8th Axis begin. The Cognizant Titan is the most powerful of all the wild Titans, with abilities surpassing even a Basic Titan Shifter. It can produce an immense roar so strong that it will blow any players near it far away. This roar also detaches all 3DMG hooks latched onto it. It can also jump extremely high, which it uses to pounce on targets from above. Its last ability is to harden the skin around its nape into Titan Crystal. If it does this, a player hoping to kill it must repeatedly strike the hardened skin until it is breaks.

The future codex entry for the Cognizant Titan will read as such:

*"An exceedingly rare and ridiculously dangerous species of Titan. Firmly attached 3DMG grapples as well as the soldier who fired them can be launched into the air by this Titan's powerful roar. The Cognizant Titan is made only more dangerous by its ability to harden the skin on its nape, against which many flesh-parring blades have been snapped like sticks"*

### Health

TBD

* The COVID/Cheating Titan. This Titan was pretty obviously named by the players of the server after its first appearance. COVID Titans are Titans with truly massive amounts of health and armor. They serve as a miniboss and are occasionally spawned by Admins for fun. Examples of COVID Titans include Thing and œ†øπ∆ƒ∂√∫˜µ. This Titan was later revealed to be called a Cheating Titan in the titan kill stats of a player who killed one.

The future codex entry for the Cheating Titan will read as such

*"Nobody knows exactly what these are. Theories and speculations abound as to why they appear, why they are so incredibly strong, and just what kind of god would create them. One theory states that they cannot appear naturally, but instead are spawned by some higher power for fun"*

## Titan Shifters

There are seven different Titan forms that can be used by players to fight against either Titans or other players. Titan forms can be bought in the 8th Axis store, or acquired with Titan Serums found in Titan Crates, although these serums are a one time use.

* Shifted Titan. These Titans are the most basic of all. The only thing they can do is harden the skin around their weak spot.

The future codex entry for the Shifted Titan will read as such:

*"Just as the 12-Meter Titan resides on the lowest rung of Pure Titans, the Shifted Titan is the weakest of the Titan Shifters. Realistically not even an actual Titan form, Shifted Titans are only created when a human is injected with a Titan Serum. It should be noted however that a Shifted Titan is still irrefutably a Titan, and as such is not to be taken lightly"*

* Brawler Titan. A better version of the Basic Titan. They have more special abilities and more health.

The future codex entry for the Brawler Titan will read as such:

*"Perfect for Titan-on-Titan combat, and not to be trifled with as a human either. This Titan quite likes hitting things and has an accordingly powerful punch. Agile, proficient, and very strong, this Titan has been obsersved being an immovable force one minute and rushing the enemy almost as fast as the golden lightning bolt that Titans appear beneath the very next. It has a hunger for battle that can only be described as a blood lust."*

* Infiltrator Titan. An extremely versatile Titan that is outmatched by sheer number of abilities only by the Armored. They can do almost anything, even become fully invisible.

The future codex entry for the Infiltrator Titan will read as such:

*"It has been said the the strength of Titans stands in direct contrast to their substance. This is no truer with any other Titan than it is with the Infiltrator. It is fast, strong, and most remarkably of all, does not appear to be tethered to physical matter. Amazingly, if only for a short time, this Titan can fully disappear from even the sharpest eye. The Infiltrator stands as a stark reminder that the powers of Titans are well beyond our understanding."*

* Fortifier Titan. They have almost no abilities compared to some other Titans, but they have an incredibly powerful rock throw attack that can kill a normal Titan in only two shots. They also have immense armor, with a base health of 150 and a max of 250.

The future codex entry for the Fortifier Titan will read as such:

*"A glorified bipedal tank, this organic war machine is truly an amazing power. An effective bulwark of Titan crystal so strong it can sink its arms into the ground and rip out a boulder that it can chuck a great distance. Heavily armored as it is, the Fortifier is still somehow very fast. Extremely sturdy, quick, and powerful, this Titan can take a beating and come out having never wavered."*

* Warhammer Titan. One of the most powerful forms in the entire server. Its users have the ability to place their bodies in other places, though the Titan will spawn on top of the place where the body is located when it is killed, making it easy to locate. It has infinite amounts of armor and it can regenerate rapidly, making an assault on the actual body the only way to kill it. It also carries a hammer made of Titan Crystal. Only ten people on the server have this form, and the list of them can be checked with the command /ttks.

The future codex entry for the Warhammer Titan will read as such:

*"Interestingly named, given that this Titan can manifest any object it desires to possess out of Titan crystal. It has been observed crafting hammers, swords, and even complicated mechanisms like crossbows. This Titan is extremely versatile, and proves that the Titan crystal substance itself is as well. It can even remotely control the Titan body from a hardened crystal. Unique, powerful, and amazing."*

* Colossal Titan. Despite the name, it's the size of a regular Titan, however it is immensely powerful. When it transforms, it creates a massive explosion that scatters magma in all directions and instantly kills anything nearby. It can generate massive steam explosions even after transforming, and can create a scalding steam shield that will boil anything that gets too close.

The future codex entry for the Colossal Titan will read as such:

*"An accurately named god of destruction. The Colossal leaves nothing but ash and death in its wake, a veritable goliath of annihilation. That said, the size of the Colossal renders it rather immobile. It cannot jump, run, or even turn very fast. Its main strategy backs on it not really needing to, as, regardless, it can create explosions and steam clouds that would keep most of anything away and slaughter everything else."*

* Armored Titan. By far the single most powerful and devastating Titan in the entire server. It can only be used by people with the Admin rank or any rank above that, and as such is nicknamed "The Admin Death Machine." Much like the Armored Titan in the franchise, it can charge into any structure and bring it crashing down. It's rivaled only by the Infiltrator when it comes to the number of abilities it has, and rivaled only by the Warhammer when it comes to sheer power. It can bring down any Titan easily, and only a small handful of people have ever successfully killed one. Best to steer clear of this Titan.

The future codex entry for the Armored Titan will read as such:

*"By far, the single most absolutely, ridiculously, and mind-numbingly astonishingly powerful Titan in existence. If the Colossal is the god of destruction then the Armored is a god killer. If the Fortifier is extremely sturdy then the Armored is stronger than the walls themselves. This Titan makes regular Titans look no more powerful than us measly humans ourselves. Run. Just run."*
