Gamera (Showa)

Summary
An ancient prehistoric turtle that dwelled in Atlantis, Gamera is awakened when a fighter plane carrying a nuclear warhead crashed into the Arctic and awoke him. Angered by the wreckless destruction wrought upon him, Gamera rampaged across Japan and killed many humans but spared one little child. In order to stop him, the JSDF utilized many strategies against Gamera such as flipping him on his shell, that would prove useless as Gamera revealed his ability to fly, and later encased him inside of a massive rocket to blast him offworld. This appeared to work until a meteoroid crashed into his spacecraft prison, freeing him and letting him return to Earth. Realizing that there are far greater threats to the Earth than humanity, Gamera reluctantly helps humanity to fend off the monsters that would unleash untold destruction across the planet.

Equipment: None notable

Techniques:


 * Fire Breath: Gamera is able to breathe a stream of flames from his mouth. Thanks to his body being capable of producing extreme heat, Gamera feeds on fire, lava, coal, oil and nuclear material to sustain his bodily functions, fly into the air with his jets or breathe fire at his targets.
 * Shell Jets: Gamera is capable of using his shell for offense and defense but also for flight. By retracting his head and at least two limbs into his shell, Gamera will fire jets out of his shell and fly. If his hind legs are tucked into his shell, he can fly in a straight line but if all his limbs and head are retracted, he’ll make a spinning pattern.
