The Fire Demon, Rodan. he is the American Incarnation of the Japanese character who was developed by Legendary Studios as one of the Big 5 for the Monsterverse. ## Personality Alternate names The Fire Demon, Tsé Nináhálééh, Big Bird, Turkey, king of the skies Subtitle(s) The One Born of Fire A Titan of Winged Fury Volcanic Rage Airborne God of Fire Rock Monster Eagle Class- ification Titanus Rodan Species Giant volcanic winged Titan Height 154 feet / 46.9 meters Wingspan 871 feet / 265.5 meters Weight 39,043 tons Place(s) of emergence Isla de Mara, Mexico Allies King Ghidorah Enemies USS Argo; King Ghidorah (initially); Mothra; Godzilla Appearance: The Monsterverse Rodan is a giant pterosaur-like creature with a large beak, two horns protruding from the back of his head, and huge wings with molten rock trailing off their edges. He can walk like a pterosaur by using these wings as front limbs. Like the Rodan design in Godzilla Final Wars, each of his forelimbs has two fingers and a thumb. Rows of spikes adorn his chest, and his tail is large, flat and fan-shaped. His body is a burgundy red color, while his serrated beak is black. Unlike past incarnations, he does not have teeth. Furthermore, this version of Rodan has feet that are more like the talons of an eagle or a hawk, having a vestigial claw and a spike on his ankle. The way he stands on his legs greatly resembles the stance of modern birds. Personality: According to Godzilla: King of the Monsters director Michael Dougherty, "[Rodan] is a bit of a rogue... you never quite know where his loyalties lie." After losing his fight to King Ghidorah, Rodan submits to him and assists him in Boston by attacking Mothra. Following Ghidorah's death, he challenges Godzilla briefly, before ultimately submitting to him. These occasions demonstrate Rodan’s loyalty and obedience towards a Titan that has established themselves as the alpha such as Ghidorah and Godzilla. Monarch classifies Rodan’s behavior as that of a "destroyer," along with fellow Titans King Ghidorah, Scylla, MUTO Prime, Camazotz, Mechagodzilla, and the Skull Devil, unleashing "airborne devastation" upon the natural world. Much like Ghidorah, Rodan displays homicidal aggression towards humans, albeit only after he's provoked to retaliation and after he's fallen under King Ghidorah's thrall respectively; chasing after the Argo and picking its escort apart in the process, and later assisting Ghidorah in massacring the U.S. military. He also attempts to kill Mothra on Ghidorah's behalf when under the three-headed dragon's thrall. Rodan’s behavior shifts when he faces Godzilla. Visibly intimidated by Godzilla, Rodan is the first to “bow” to Godzilla, acknowledging him as the Alpha. Afterwards, Rodan settles at Mt. Fiji and causes no conflict like fellow titans Scylla and Amhuluk eventually did. Additional Information: Rodan is a Biovolcanic monster meaning he is comprised of having an almost rocky exterior but boiling magma blood inside him, his flight also is supersonic in nature.
