The Sea Monster

**Ebirah** is a current member of the **Earth Conquerors** Ebirah first appeared following the Toba Extinction. He soon vanished along with many other Kaiju following the battle between King Caesar and Megalon but he returned thousands of year later in the present in 1964.

## Appearance

In appearance, Ebirah generally resembles a giant lobster, with his exoskeleton being red. His two pincers are different from each other: One being very large while the other being thin and pointed. He has two sets antenna/feelers, yellowish-orange eyes on small eye-stalks and has a nose-like shell piece, as well as two shell pieces that resemble brows,one around each eye. His mouth is a set of manibles. Ebirah also has spike-like structures on his exoskeleton. He also has eight pairs of legs and multiple segments on his body, which leads up to a tail that resembles that of a normal lobster.

## Personality

Ebirah is a very serous Kaiju, often showing disdain when his enemies or allies display strange antics. However, he is also quite arrogant as well, which was shown when he was seen taunting Elfman Strauss when they briefly fought. Like the other Earth Conquerors (except for Sanda), he too displays a deep hatred towards humans and wishes for their destruction, and he also has a malicious side to him, as shown when he laughed upon seeing the fall of the Tenrou Tree affect the members of **Fairy Tail**.

## History

Ebirah was a Kaiju born following the events of the Toba Extinction when the remaining seven of the **Eight Guardians of Terra** gave up their souls to the Tree of Life. During the battle between King Caesar and Megalon in Okinawa, Ebirah and Varan attacked a group of ships when the survivors of the Ryukyu Kingdom tried to flee, but after a Cryog ship crash lands in the sea of Okinawa (having been shot down by a Millennian UFO in Terra's orbit), Ebirah soon disappeared along with the other Kaiju. However in 1966, Ebirah reawakens on Letchi Island due to nuclear testing.
