Atanti-ql-Paneu

**Atanti-ql-Paneu** is an omnicidal reptilian monster contained by Majestic 12.

## Overview

Atanti one of the most well-known and dangerous objects in Majestic 12's care. He is massive reptilian entity hell bent on the massacre of any and all life upon planet Earth. On top of that, Atanti is considered to be nearly impossible to kill, healing from all wounds and adapting his body to any threats to his health. This has made Atanti the one anomaly to be an exception from the "non-destruction of anomalies" rule, as he is so incredibly dangerous that the Foundation has made it their goal to find a way to terminate Atanti's anomalous abilities. Various anomalies have been used against Atanti in an effort to kill him, and yet all have failed.

## Appearance

Atanti is a massive, somewhat reptilian, monster with four legs, a tail, and crocodilian head. He has a mouth full of razor sharp, scaly skin, and massive knife-like claws. and two eyes. Despite his appearance, Atanti isn't actually a reptile, he is a completely alien creature whose closest species classification is reptilian.

## Personality

Atanti is a misanthropic creature who hates all forms of life and considers them all to be disgusting that he stops at nothing to kill all he come across. While he is intelligent and capable of speech, he is shown to be unwilling and even vulgar to the staff and other anomalies. calling his little Brother Joy "a feculent little #####" Despite this, however. Atanti have some compassion to the little girl, an anomaly who casues death to those who close to her and Old AI, being a creature not made of life. going so far as to consider it his only friend.

## Powers and Abilities

Atanti can easily tear through reinforced steel walls with its bare claws and rip apart being easily. It takes very high level weaponry and/or other anomalies to do any actual damage to Atanti. Atanti has proven absolutely unkillable to even the most advanced human technologies. Methods have included being cut in half by a laser, having its neck snapped over and over for ten straight hours by the Koitern and was also entangled and squeezed until limbs popped off by the Ball of Sharp. Atanti can regenerate from any injury it sustains, even when missing limbs and when cut in half. After being cut in half, Atanti was able to fuse its two halves back together again. One of Atanti's main powers and its most dangerous ability, Atanti can adapt to almost every solution which includes growing dozens of eyes to constantly keep an eye on the Koitern (forcing security to enter and shoot them out). Atanti seems to be completely immune to the pains caused by being constantly submerged in acid and even having its eyes shot out by security barely got a reaction.

Despite usually being seen as a mindless hateful brute, Atanti possesses genius level intelligence and is very manipulative. In an attempt to destroy it with extreme heat, it created helium armor to shield itself. When researchers entered the room, it broke apart the armor and shredded several personnel in attendance. Atanti has razor sharp claws capable of ripping apart humans on all four feet, and razor sharp teeth capable of ripping legs off of people with single pulls.

Atanti's primary weakness and how it is kept detained. Strong corrosive acid will damage its body and force its to constantly regenerate, rendering it unable to move. However, this is not a permanent solution since it will eventually regenerate faster than the acid can damage it and cause a breach. Although open fire will not kill it, it still takes time for Atanti to regenerate which is how it is often re-contained.

If given a high enough dose of sedatives, Atanti will be knocked out. This option is almost never utilized however since it requires getting well in range of the creature's claws and teeth.

## History

### Origin

Atanti was the offspring of Zalgo. It was one of the many leviathan spawned from the fourth bride of the king, A'zieb. Her children were said to be like her, they feared no weapon nor magical spell, for their injuries were healed, and their hides impenetrable.

Atanti along with the rest of the leviathan spawn festered the Multiverse's roots, rotting them away. Zalgo then led his army of leviathans towards the Taproots, the center of worlds.

Atanti is running for its life, presumably from the Koitern. Atanti ran into some of the Koiterns men, which would have been bad for Atanti, thankfully they were just explorers just like it, which meant the Koitern was still worlds away.

Still, these explorers were violent and outnumbered Atanti eight to one. Atanti managed to escape by ducking into a familiar tunnel, and after a few more minutes of running, it managed to shake off the pursuers. Atanti chose to explore further, and after a few hours of traversing, it eventually found itself in the Grand Chamber of Sutkak.

While reveling in the beauty of the room and the thoughts of its people, the doors of the chamber slammed shut behind it. This allowed it to survive the storm (presumably the flood caused by the All-Mighty), but it still cried as its thoughts turned to his wife and child.

At some point, after a great flood, he was later exiled down to Earth by God and forced into his current form as a punishment, preventing him from ever dying, returning to his true form, or leaving Earth while causing all of humanity to endlessly seek his death. He was often compared to many mythological reptiles, such as that of Livyatan and Tarasque.

### On Earth

On May 14th of 1883, the monster appeared in the village of Tarascon in France where he began taunting and laying waste on the innocent people before proceeding to go to other populated areas just for fun. The French government evacuated as many people as possible and quarantined the zone. Seeing that the creature was not affected by their assault, the government gathered the famous hunters, Mr. Roosevelt, Mr. Harris, Mr. Dukov, and Lord Blackwood in order to deal with the threat of Atanti.

The four gentlemen, hunted Atanti to Belleville where they used their advanced weaponry on the monster even blowing up a piece of its head, but Atanti easily shrugged it off and charged them. Luckily the four gentlemen had managed to escape it and tried to attack it a second the next day, but to no avail. However, the heroes then decided to set a trap for Atanti, so they dug up a pit, filled it with poisoned spikes, built a bridge over it capable of holding only a man and a horse and then covered it with leaves. The next day, Roosevelt lured Atanti to the pit in which the monster fell getting pierced by the poisoned spikes. The four gentlemen used the chance to unload all of their weaponry onto the monster until only a skeleton remained.

Thinking they had finally killed the abomination, they took its head and buried the rest of the body. While taking photos of their prize, Atanti's head came to life and ate Dukov. Then the rest of its regenerating body dug itself out and reunited with the head, while the rest of the gentlemen and the French army panicked. Mr. Harris decided to use his secret weapon, which was revealed to be Able. After Able killed Harris and fought Blackwood and Roosevelt, he took notice of the monster and the two fought. The battle was long and brutal with both parties delivering heavy damage to each other, until Able used the core of one of Dukov's weapons, turning it into a bomb. After detonating it, all that remained of the military's base was just a barren land, with Atanti seemingly retreating away.

It is unknown when or how the Foundation acquired Atanti but presumably it happened shortly after the creature attacked a farm and slaughtered everything on it. It bore a particular hatred for the humans of the farm and when questioned about its motives, it simply says "They were...disgusting...".

Atanti has escaped containment at least six times and has killed hundreds of staff during its time in the Foundation. A termination order has been issued to Atanti, but it has adapted and evolved every time the Foundation tries to kill it. Using either conventional means such as using bombs or depressurizing the environment, or using other anomalies such as facing off this anomaly with the Koitern. All attempts have failed.
