NeoBioKaijune 2023 - Day 30: Mascot
Alright, the grand finale! This one took the most time to design for sure. Pretty proud of it actually.
Here's a link to the prompt list I used: [illust/108305583]

Bio:
Interrupting a kaiju attack in a heavily populated city in Canada, Kyphor appeared with a large, strange-looking kaiju in tow. Not doing anything themselves, this kaiju shot out a large beam of light towards the kaiju, atomizing it on the spot. Trucks soon appeared, having the same colour pattern as Kyphor and this strange kaiju. Modifying the gravity around the trucks, Kyphor lifted them into the air, allowing an armor-clad humanoid to get a high vantage point in order to announce their presence.
Calling their group "The Ascent", they spoke in a robotic voice towards the crowd that had gathered around the strange kaiju. Apparently being part of a defunct portion of the KDF, The Ascent say they helped them in designing their biomechanical kaiju named Ganis'i, and that their new design, "Scour", was a further improvement off of that. The Ascent espoused themselves as being the true scientific protectors of mankind, able to improve on all of the designs that came before, and urging people to join them.
After this showing, both Kyphor and Scour have been seen worldwide, sometimes hours apart on opposite sides of the globe. Further investigations into their inner workings have shown that their machines apparently use something they call "Royal Flesh", these apparently coming from the dead Cursed King kaiju that they've harvested (likely from the Seige Dragons), this flesh being easy to adhere to machinery and interfacing readily with any type of circuitry, additionally using titanima and the unnamed green crystals found on ancient machines.
Though The Ascent have gotten backlash for using Royal Flesh, material, the KDF have come under more fire for hiding their use of the material in their Ganis'i mech, the discourse erupting almost immediately after The Ascent's global debut.
The KDF have remained entirely silent after the incident, Eco-K being quite angry with The Ascent, as they dispatch kaiju without mercy or worry about the ecological role they might play, but this very efficacy has proven effective at garnering online fans of The Ascent.
