Mothra

* Larva
* Imago

Mothra (モスラ *Mosura)* is a giant lepidopteran kaiju redesigned by DarthRaptor97 and created by Toho. Mothra appears in Godzilla: Hotlines Season 1 as one of the main monsters that appears in the final. At first, it seem that Godzilla and Mothra hated each other but discover by Asaka, ancient carvings about how Gojira and Mosura fought a bigger threat then Destoroyah himself.

## Name

Mothra was given the name due to her moth like appearance when the ASI see her in her Imago Stage. "Mosura" is a Japanese translation of Mothra.

## Design

Mothra's design is similar to her Monsterverse Incarnation. Her larva form, is similar to her Millennium incarnation with black pincers and three long spikes at the end of her tail. However, she's more centipede then worm like with multiple small legs to carry her and a gem in the middle of her forehead.

Her Imago form has two large wings with patterns and two small wings, a large stinger, sharp forelimbs, a gem on her forehead, and spikes on her legs.

## Behavior

Mothra's behavior is abnormal. She's seen as a beloved and kind kaiju by Asaka but a destructive force by Gigan and the ASI. While the only destructive she caused is when she was born and during the final fight, Mothra is protective as she trapped the Meganula swarm in the cave before they got to Asaka.

## History

### 2009 - Discovered/Hatched (S1 Episode 1 - 2)

When Mothra was discovered outside of the ASI base, people surrounded her egg as they took pictures of her. When she hatched, she was threatened by the ASI and she fought back before making her way to the city and running from the ASI helicopters before Goji came. Godzilla and Mothra's Larva fought before they were both pushed back when the beams collide and exploded. Mothra then found a cave and cocoon herself in there for the time being.

### 2009 - Imago's Reveal (S1 Episode 5)

Mothra burst out of her cocoon and notice King Caesar and Kumonga fighting as she engage. She fought Kumonga while King Caesar was fighting Manda until OM Missiles drove both creatures away.

### 2009 - A Human's Touch (S1 Episode 7)

When Mothra saved Asaka and covered the cave before the Meganula swarm was about to kill her, she let Asaka touch her gem on her forehead as she revealed what happen to the Monster World when it was peaceful before a Crystal Asteroid crashed on that planet and the flashback cut and Mothra flew away, leaving Asaka.

### 2009 - Final Days (S1 Episode 9 - 10)

Mothra watch Asaka show Kim the ancient carvings of when she fought Battra, Dagahra, Desghidorah, and King Ghidorah. However, her caves was soon discovered by Kumonga as Mothra tackles the spider and engages in another fight. However, during the fight, Gigan showed up and tackled Mothra. When Kumonga was dragged by Biollante, Mothra forward her attention to Gigan as they fought. Mothra kicked Gigan so she can escape as does Gigan. After healing for a short time, Mothra flew over to where Godzilla and Destoroyah were fighting. After helping Godzilla for a minute, Gigan then flew to Mothra and they fought for a long period of time as Gigan had the upper hand most of the times. However, Mothra stabs Gigan with her stinger and slip the creature in half. Then Mothra flew to Destoroyah who was carrying Godzilla at the time. Mothra latch on with her silk and climb to Destoroyah before all three creatures fell back to the city and landed hard. Destoroyah then grabs Mothra and rips her head off! After the battle, another egg was inside Mothra's Temple as it had a small crack.

## Abilities

### Silk

Both stages have the ability to fire slik from their mouths. However, Mothra's Imago Stage Slik is stronger then her larva stage silk as it barely moved Godzilla an inch.

### Gem Beam

Mothra can summon an energy blue beam from the gem on her forehead.

### Stinger

Mothra's Imago stage has a large stinger that was able to slice Gigan in half.

### Durability

Her larva form has stronger durability then her Imago stage does. It protects her from the blast of Godzilla's Atomic breath and bullets from the ASI.

### Reincarnation

Mothra can reincarnate when she lays an egg before death. Thus, cheating death.

### Flight

Mothra has two large wings in her imago stage that she flies with to get to places to place.

### Raptorial forelimbs

Mothra's front and middle legs possess pointed tips like a praying mantis, which she utilizes as blade-like weapons for combat against other monsters such as Gigan or Kumonga.

### Speed and agility

Mothra is a fast and agile flyer, though she's seemingly surpassed in those regards by Gigan who weaken her.

### Strength and combat

Both stages have different fighting and combat styles. Her Larva stage has less attacks but more combat of that of a snake. Her Imago Stage has more air attacks such as slashing from above and biting her enemies shoulder and etc.

## Weaknesses

### Gigan

Most of Gigan's attacks seem to damage Mothra's body unlike Kumonga or Godzilla when they fought.
