Behemoth

Behemoth is an Endbringer.

Background

Behemoth appeared on December 13th, 1992 in Marun Field, Iran.

Appearance

Forty-five feet tall at the very least.  His skin is crusted with black stone that might have been obsidian, layers of what might be cooled magma sloughing off of him. He is built like a caricature of a bodybuilder, or a bear-human hybrid.  He is rippled with muscle, his skin gray, thick and leathery like the hide of a rhinoceros or elephant.  His black obsidian horns were so heavy his head hangs down.  They weren’t rooted in his forehead, but in the middle of his face, a half-dozen curved shafts of black crystal twisting their way out of his face and back over the top of his head, some ten feet long.  A single red eye glowed from between the gap in two horns, positioned too low.  His mouth was a jagged gap in his lower face, twisting up to a point near his temple, lined by jagged horn-like growths that were too irregular to be called teeth.

His claws are the same, not hands in the conventional sense, but mangled growths of the same material that made up his horns, many of the growths as large as people.  He could flex them, move them, but they are clearly weapons and nothing else.

Abilities and Powers

In addition to an Endbringer's standard invulnerability, Behemoth possesses dynakinesis. He has used this ability to Control fire and lightning and he can direct where they go. He can absorb the kinetic force from strikes and disperse it through the ground causing shock waves and earthquakes. He can emit a sonic roar that, if unprotected, can liquefy the organs of people in range, also rupturing eardrums and eyeballs. He can also go "thermo nuclear" radiating himself and the area around him.

Behemoth is considered the slowest Endbringer, but his sheer size makes him able to cover ground fairly quickly. During his attack on New Delhi, he's noted to have enough strength to leap fifty to seventy feet forward at a bound before anyone but a speedster could react. He also burrows underground to get the jump on the capes.

History

Behemoth was killed by Scion after Scion ripped him in half and then vaporized him.
