Johyo: The large beast towers over the cities guard as it splits the very ground they stand on in half with its Plasma Breath, cutting down the men and women with one beaming roar, it swings from building to building tearing down each one with the inertia from its movement as the chains attach and release from the buildings. The creature is expressionless seeming to have no purpose but destruction, with the flames and screams behind it continues on its path. Forever Hungry. The Johyo is a creature of mystery however seems to always hunger for destruction, leaving its rocky lair to reek havoc on anything it comes across, burning down forests with its presence and slaying anything with a heartbeat, quickly shoving anything it can from the creature into its mouth before moving on. Trophy Monsters. The Johyo is a creature hunted by the strongest adventurers, as it is a creature worthy of a prize, many experienced adventures would hang up the head of a Johyo on the wall and sell its parts for wealth or to use for themselves, The eyes can be used to create infrared googles, the core of the creature creates a indistinguishable inferno and the chains it uses for battle can be crafted into fine weapons or even replicated to create similar mechanical devices.
