Kaiju Incarnate

**Kaiju Incarnate** was the second game played by Team 21 and the first game of the Kaiju series. It ran from July 30th of 2019 to September 24th of the same year, being one of the shortest campaigns of Team 21, attributed to burn out of the *Masks* system from Flurar. Maryla also retired from Team 21 near the beginning of the campaign. It is also when the group started to be called Team 21.

Though the campaign was an abject failure with an overabundance of NPCs and little to no coherent story, it did introduce many concepts that persisted into Kaiju Reincarnated and beyond, including the Kaiju Rehabilitation And Containment Team, or KRACT, as well as the term Carnates and many ideas surrounding how Carnates acquire their Kaiju powers. Though the story of the campaign suffered greatly from the GM's burn out of the system used, the worldbuilding was enough to drive the Kaiju campaign into a sequel, which outperformed it's predecessor by miles.

## Plot

The story began when Team 21 accidentally blew up a mall and were forced into community service working for KRACT. At KRACT they were directly under the supervision of a Carnate named Ivan and received their missions from him and Dr. Finlay Robinson. These missions frequently revolved around stopping a group of Carnates calling themselves Heirs who believed that only Trueborn Carnates should have Kaiju Essence. The primary operatives of Heirs who were dealt with were Eweliet, who had the ability to make anyone aggressive to her fall asleep, and Eight Thousand Four Hundred Ninety or Nina, who had the ability to explode at will and rebuild herself later using the electromagnet in the center of her body. The leader of the Heirs was a woman who called herself Queen Bee who had the ability to make mind controlling pollen, and she frequently sent the pollen in packages or letters. One of these packages was sent to Ivan, and he ended up being mind controlled into killing himself.

After that, Cyrus was married to Princess Uvel Flowest of Opelios after her mother Queen Rawopel Flowest planned and executed her own assassination. In Opelios there was a machine that stored and allowed the controlled dispensing of Kaiju Essence which the Heirs took control of and modified so it would release Kaiju Essence into the world and rebirth Kaiju in their true form, but Morgan had previously learned in a flashback that she was a being called the Moaq who could absorb an infinite amount of Kaiju Essence, and did so on the machine to undo what the Heirs had done.

## Persisting Ideas

The idea of how Carnates get their powers and their classifications remain mostly the same from this campaign, though slightly expanded on, the original list of Trueborn, Grower, and Finder gaining Ancestral, Bloomer, and Dormant in later campaigns. The idea that a Carnate can succumb to the instincts of their Kaiju was introduced in this game and continues to persist throughout every campaign of the Kaiju series. KRACT remains a group of interest and partial antagonist, and Opelios remains a place of interest as well. PCs and NPCs from this campaign have also shown up in subsequent campaigns.
