Beelzebub Bio

Beelzebub: Lord of the Flies
One of the most prominent aspects of life is its need to expand, grow and prosper. Beelzebub is the emissary of that aspect. Taking the form of a great white fly, Beelzebub is the part of nature that seeks to proliferate and spread, sometimes to the determent of other species. The titan himself is an amusing creature that has an eccentric and off beat sense of humor. While not having the most ‘beautiful’ of forms, Beelzebub is much more than his chitin plated appearance suggests. Beelzebub is at much at home in the air as a fish would be in the ocean. The fastest and most maneuverable being on Earth, Beelzebub can easily fly circles around the world’s fastest jets and often makes a point of doing so, just because he can. The fly lord is a whimsical and sarcastic opponent, often taking time to over exaggerate his reactions to his opponent in order to insult them. His favorite trick involves landing on the back of his opponents head and kicking off them with his piston like back legs; sending his foe face first into the ground while Beelzebub buzz’s mockingly nearby. Beelzebub specializes in avoiding hits and long range warfare, using his agility, various organic weaponry and personal swarm of ‘children’ to harass and bombard his opponent while waiting for opportunities to perform various hit-and-run tactics. While Beelzebub is not as intolerant of humanity as Shimaku, he has no special love for them either. In fact, he sees them as a resource to be exploited as they provide plenty of flesh and waste to feed his swarm.

Following life’s usual process, Beelzebub starts out as a white and green egg that eventually hatches into a gargantuan black maggot. Feeding on his surroundings until he’s gained enough nourishment, Beelzebub eventually turns his entire outer skin into a protective shell of emerald green. In a short time he emerges in his true form, the great white fly with luminescent green eyes. In this form he will stay for up to a year, before dieing and having the cycle repeat itself with a giant white and green egg emerging from his exoskeleton. If the egg is destroyed, his essence moves on to one of his many, many offspring and they proceed to eat and molt until he is back to his original state; which takes much longer even though each one of his spawn range from being as big a cat to the size of small horse. Like several other monsters, Beelzebub has linked with a human by the name of Piper Reed. A spunky and eccentric girl, Piper fits Beelzebub’s own quirky mindset very well and she can sometimes be seen actually riding on the fly lord as he zips from continent to continent, often cleaning up after Shimaku’s latest battle. While the removal of giant monster corpses is appreciated, military class exterminators have to be called in soon after due to the inevitable storm of pestilent insects that soon rise from the remains. The military has tried several times to destroy Beelzebub, only for him to return the favor by laying siege to several industrial districts and major cities, stripping the area clean of waste and most organic matter in a matter of minutes. If left to his own devices, Beelzebub takes what he needs and moves on and will eventually take his entire swarm with him into hibernation after a time. Attempting to destroy him and his swarm always leads to a viscous counter offensive that could be interpreted as an invasion of biblical proportions. Many conservative groups endorse these attempts and fume when their contributions fail to achieve results. The peculiar habit of the fly lord defecating on churches has only fueled the flames of resentment

I spelled his name wrong on the paper lolz. Anyway, he's like my monster universe's equavilent to Mothra and he owns in the most humilating of ways possible. Epic comic relief for the win.

I LOVE this guy. He is so disgustingly well designed. I'm sure someone's done a fly kaiju before, but I doubt any can hold a candle to this guy. He manages to have a face that has a lot of personality and character despite being distinctly fly-ish. He looks nasty and horrific and just freaking sweet. And he sounds like he'd be very entertaining to see in action, too, what with the rather crass sense of humor he has.

Just to let you in on a little secret there is a theme going between him, Shimaku, and two other kaiju. Its gonna be awesomesauce.

Beelzebub was really fun to come up with. Name is a tad unoriginal but it fits him. I love to imagine him comically bouncing and buzzing all over the place, just for the lulz. If there is one fight I'd love to do with him, it would be against Mothra. Can imagine her tranquil goddess platitudes coming in contact with this comical rogue? It would be freakin hilarious. Megaguirus would be fun too, considering the epic high speed dogfight and warring swarms that would inevitably ensue.

It's not that I don't like society, It's that I've been forced to live out side of it due to the over whelming force of: conservatives, conformists, liberals, republicans, democrats, enviromentalists, terrorists, right wingers, religous zealots, media...

Ahahaha, this guy is all kinds of awesome. It's just a great design! It's got all the classic fly traits, but they stand out so much more because they correlate so well to his personality. The cleaning/scheming forelegs just make me grin every time I see em, lol. The face is one of my favorite parts, it's definitely insectoid and looks like a fly, but at the same time there's a really distinct, expressive look to it. It's a really memorable face, which I think is kind of hard to get when working with bug monsters.
This guy's history and personality are what really won me over, though. The mocking and taunting attitude sounds really fun to watch, and the idea of a sarcastic Lord of the Flies that defecates on churches is just hilarious. Beelzebub is a real winner. :D

Thanks, he's defintely a fun monster to work with. Most kaiju take themselves so seriously these days, I wanted something that could be hilarious and destructive at the same time.

:iconmonsturra-jake:
Now, that is awesome looking.
:iconarcharugen:
An amazingly well-detailed character, and a helluva personality to match. Quite often, it seems, Kaiju don't get enough personality to make them unique in anything else but physically, but this one certainly does.

Excellent work!

The basturd son of Mothra!

I would pay to see this joker take on one of the other bugs, my votes for a three way battle royal between him, Mothra and Megaguirus.

That would be incredibly awesome, the sheer mayhem of it all would blow minds.
