As promised, a little something for you to chew on: Part 1 of match 4.

Match 4: Barba vs. Rodan

Barba, the Goliath
Fists, Strength, Feet

Rodan (Hesei)
Flight, Beak, Talons, Wings

In the vast, cold Gobi Desert, a giant had risen. A beast known only from ancient, mythical tales, the very real Goliath, Barba, had risen forth, in a time when all of his kind, the mighty and ancient Colossi, were rising to destroy the planet. The massive beast, Barba, rose from the freezing sand, secure in the knowledge that his time had come. The beast stood like a human, his stature wreathed in both grey fur and stone. His arms wore heavy stone gauntlets, and his legs were made of stone. Beneath his two, glowing silver eyes, a great beard of fur stretched to his chest. Barba could sense more of his kind nearby, specifically, Kuromori, the Wall Shadow, could not be more than a mile away. Barba would seek him out, and form a deadly alliance.

In the clouds above, the fearsome figure of a pteranodon swooped low, searching. But what at first looked like the iconic pterosaur, was in fact slightly different. Rodan’s beak was shorter than should be expected for a pteranodon, and the pterosaur’s famous crest was replaced with several twisted horns. Rodan’s chest was covered in a sheet of armor, jagged with spikes. Rodan had a mission here. He braved the cold and hunger this land brought, because he knew he had to help the world. And now, some new force was arising. He had seen it slay Manda down below, as he left the island. And here, in this desolate wasteland, he could feel the same force growing in power. This desert’s tally, as far as Rodan could sense: two Colossi, one Kaiju, all unfamiliar.

Rodan knew the other Kaiju was close, very close. He scanned the sky, until his keen eyes picked it up: an enormous bat, long-tailed and pink-furred, soaring through the clouds. Normally, Rodan would attack this Kaiju, but he knew he needed an ally in the battle to come. Bagorah, the great bat, felt the same. He too had spotted Rodan, and with a single glance, the duo formed an unspoken alliance. Down in the desert below, a structure that had not been gazed upon by human eyes since it’s construction. A mighty pit, lined with coliseum-like walls, the sandy, circular floor about 150 feet in diameter. In the bottom of the pit, shrouded in darkness, Kuromori lurked. Another Colossus, the vicious Wall Shadow could smell the two flying Kaiju above. Electricity warped with toxic chemicals in the darkness, and three golden projectiles launched into the heavens. Kuromori had entered the fray…

Bagorah and Rodan sailed through the clouds, oblivious to the energies gathering against them. Suddenly, a bright flash of golden light heralded Kuromori’s deadly weapons as they smashed into Bagorah’s chest. The bat howled once before plummeting into the shadowy arena below. Rodan screeched and flew down to assist his ally, before he saw something that truly caught his attention: Barba, standing in the sand below. As Rodan shrieked a battle cry and began to dive, Barba looked up, clenching his fists for battle.

If you think the colossi you've seen so far are badass, wait till you see Kuromori in action.

I find the term "Zombie" to be offensive. I prefer to be called Vitality Impaired.
