Biography

Leatherback is a naturally hostile creature whose appearance is akin to that of a gorilla; however, if injured, Leatherback uses hit and run tactics to defeat foes. It will retreat from battle and hide until the enemy is distracted. Pouncing on enemies from behind, Leatherback uses the weight of its opponent against them.[2] Leatherback's fists are like maces, the hard protrusions that cover them can tear through armor. Its thick skin allows it to withstand great amounts of damage without faltering.[2] This is further enhanced by bony armor on the shoulders, as well as a crest-like plate that covers the top of its head. It possesses fourteen bioluminescent tendrils on the back of its head that wiggle as a sign of agitation.[2] Of the two, Leatherback does not possess the same level of intelligence or cunning as Otachi. Its strength lies in its rage, particularly when challenged in an attack.[2] Its movement resembles that of a gorilla, walking on the knuckles of it's large, shovel-like hands, or making great leaps. Leatherback has six visible eyes. The Kaiju's most deadly trait is a large, four-lobed organ on its back that can naturally charge and generate an electromagnetic pulse which disables all electronics in a wide surrounding area, a dangerous threat to digitized Jaegers.
