This kaiju is a redesign of the monster, Tronos. Originally, he was a artificial ancient bio-weapon that served Atlantis years before it sank, I decided to turn him into a alien for a while. However, I felt the extraterrestrial route didn't fit the character, so I went back to the idea of him being a ancient kaiju that served a ancient civilization. This version now was part of a South American splinter group of Atlantis that created several "beast guardians" to protect their kingdom. This include the seven generals, the Titanoraptors, and the Soul Reaping Queen, Kimtorez. Due to being aware that Kimtorez, when fully grown, would turn against her creators, the civilization placed her in a pyamid-like structure to seal her powers, and keep her in her child form. However, she manage to influence five of the seven generals, and the Titanoraptors, into turning on their creators anyway. Two of the generals that aren't influence by Kimtorez's psychic manipulation were the ceratopsian-like Egamorn & Tronos. There's a bit of a backstory which I think would work for these guys.

As for the design itself, I kept it pretty basic. I decided that Tronos should be reptilian (my other brute kaiju, Brockdon, is going to be design into a reptilian/mammalian hybrid), with elements of sauropods and ankylosaurs in his design. His craggily scaly skin makes up his tough armor as well. The tail is actually flat, like a beaver's, and Tronos can smack enemies with it, generate a mildly strong shockwave by slamming it on the ground, can lift himself temporary off the ground to deliver a Earth-shattering punch, and even swim with.

Power-wise, I decided to keep Tronos a brawler type. He can swim surprisingly well (even with his armor and bulk), by sucking in some air, he can inflat himself to float on the surface, while using his tail to move, and his limbs to direct. He does have energy based attack called the White Flaming Fist of Justice. Tronos will charge his fists with a white flame like energy which amplifies his alreadly unnatural strength to godly levels. He can even use this attack as a defense, cancelling most protectiles. I might also include a power for Tronos where his body can even absorb some of the kinetic energy created by energy-based attacks, which are a fuel for the WFFoJ.

Overall, I like this design, and I might actually keep it this way.

Red King homages are always a good thing, in my opinion.

He's pretty much a homage to the character :)

Nice design. I can see him as the Red King of the Behemoth Chronicles

Pretty much his role, as he is a bit of a homage to Red King.
