For those who still play In Nomine

Gojira

Ethereal Page of Duty

No, really.

It would seem that the Archangel
Galahad has a sense of humor, after all. Or possibly just a very open
mind: either way, Galahad's appreciation of this most unlikely of
Servitors just doesn't jibe well with his reputation as a stuffed shirt.

Gojira was part of the first wave of
ethereals to answer Galahad's call for Servitors, and what a motley
bunch they were, indeed. Refugees and minor personages from a hundred
pantheons gathered at the gates of Heaven to enlist... and right there, in
the middle, was a 300-foot monster. Sitting in the lotus position. At
first Galahad thought that was an affectation, but as he got closer, he
saw that the ethereal seemed as taut as a bowstring. Gojira was
obviously fighting for physical control: his very form seemed to
flicker. The Archangel of Virtue recognized the condition all too well.
Human perceptions of Gojira had shifted, and the ethereal was
desperately attempting to fight off the change.

That was enough for Galahad: there was
no way that he could refuse the offered fealty of an entity resolutely
struggling against the same corruption that once threatened him. He
stabilized and inducted Gojira on the spot, and has never regretted it
since. The new Servitor of Virtue proved to have a knack at recruitment
and liaison work in the Marches: as any kid could have told you,
Gojira's not as dumb as he looks. In fact, it's looking like he might be
soon able to engineer an open break between Hell and the August
Prosperity Collective. His mere status is powerful propaganda.

Generally, Gojira is well liked by his
new colleagues. There's very little guile in him, and it's all saved
for Heaven's foes. Like many ethereals created in the modern era, Gojira
has a perspective on humanity that celestials find useful - and he's
thrilled to get asked for his input. Nobody ever asked him for
his opinion before. And, of course, the kids just love him. He likes
taking a shift at welcoming the blessed to Heaven: the sight of Godzilla, with a halo, has caused more than one blessed soul to collapse with laughter before they even get past the Pearly Gates.

It should be noted that Gojira is only
a 300-foot guy in a rubber suit on the ethereal or celestial planes. He
doesn't often go corporeal, and when he does, any human vessel will do.
It makes it easier to get into the video stores. Most of his work is in
the Marches, anyway. He spends a lot of time doing favors for Blandine
and Christopher there, with Galahad's full permission. It's amazing how
fast Servitors of Nightmares will clear the area when a 300-foot monster
with radioactive breath pops in.

However...

Gojira has made something clear. There will be a Final Battle, someday, and when it does, he wants to be able to use
the vessel he's having specially made up (financed by Marc's
organization, of course, on reasonable terms). Michael agreed right
away: Laurence took a little more persuasion, but even the General of
the Host is capable of irony. So, when that day comes, the Gorilla-Whale
will rise from the sea and level a city, just like all of his watchers
have secretly dreamed of seeing happen for real. No, not Tokyo:
the Japanese have always shown proper respect. Gojira wants Hollywood.
Gojira wants Hollywood so badly that his claws twitch.

Turn him into a
parthenogenetic, egg-laying 300-foot gecko, will they? He'll show them
parthenogenetic. He'll parthenogenetic them right into the Pacific
Ocean, see if he doesn't...

YES!!!!!

(Cue extended laughter and fist pumping)
