Gigan is a bizarre, bestial kaiju with some construct-like augmentations.

Gigan resembles few species known to man. It is a teal, somewhat avian biped standing about 150 feet tall, with a long bladed tail and thickly muscled limbs. The forearms, from the elbow on, are massive ivory claws, and the feet end in a similar, albeit smaller, claw. The jaw is unusual, containing both an avian beak and insect-like mandibles. Gigan has one crescent-shaped eye stretching across the width of its forehead, with a small diamond shaped ray projector directly above it. Gigan has three membranous wings mounted in its back. Its torso is plated in a gold-like alloy, and a long buzzsaw runs parallel to its spine in its chest.

Gigan is the possession and chief weapon of the Nebulans, a race of cockroach-like humanoids intent on conquering humanity. It is believed that they enhanced Gigan’s abilities and gave him mechanical augmentations. Circumstantial evidence suggests that Gigan is not unique; it is possible that he is instead a member of an entire species of avian monsters.

Combat
Gigan’s chief advantage lies in his powerful grappling. When in combat with something too large to be ignored, he generally grabs it and tears it apart with his claws, bite and buzzsaw. Against more distant opponents, he uses his crimson ray before closing.

Crimson Ray (Su): Once every 1d4 rounds, Gigan can shoot an fiery red ray out of his forehead. This ray has a range of 300 feet (no range increment) and deals 7d6 points of fire damage and 6d6 points of force damage if it hits.

Fortification (Ex): The modifications and metallic implants made by the Nebulans to Gigan have made it difficult to severely damage him. Each critical hit or sneak attack made against Gigan has a 75% chance of not dealing extra damage, as per armor of moderate fortification.

Improved Grab (Ex): Whenever Gigan hits an opponent with his hammerclaw attack, he may make a grapple check as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity (grapple bonus +99, including a +10 racial bonus to grapple checks). If he gets a hold, she can choose to conduct the grapple normally, or only hold the opponent in his claws (-20 to all grapple checks, but Gigan is not considered grappled). Regardless of how the grapple is conducted, the opponent takes automatic hammerclaw damage each round Gigan maintains the hold. If Gigan conducts the grapple normally, the opponent also takes rending bite damage, and Hue or larger opponents also automatically take buzzsaw damage.

No Breath (Ex): Gigan, who can fly between the voids beyond known worlds, does not need to breathe. He is effectively immune to gas attacks that require inhalation, and can exist in airless environments.

Power Sunder (Ex): Gigan does not provoke an attack of opportunity when striking an opponent’s weapon or armor, and deals double damage when attacking objects.

Rending Bite (Ex): Gigan tears at the flesh of grappled opponents with his four-pronged jaws, automatically dealing 4d6+37 points of damage to a grabbed foe per round.

Trample (Ex): Gigan can simply run over any creature of Gargantuan or smaller size. Merely by moving over the opponent(s), Gigan deals to them 4d12+25 damage. Trampled opponents can make Reflex saves for half damage (DC 67), or make an attack of opportunity against Gigan.

Demiurge out.
