Description
Data on Kaiju Ibaraki:

Height: 91 Meters

Danger Level: Class IV/V

Location: Mt. Ooe, Japan

Status: Dormant

Only visible through thermal imaging, a containment facility with inner shielding made of Nanotitanium has been built around the inactive mountain where Ibaraki resides, and has been for thousands of years.

Ibaraki's body resembles that of a large, muscly ape-like creature with four arms, and what appears to be scales or chitin across its entire body as a defense. Two prominent, curved horns protrude from the top of its skull.

Ibaraki has a steady heartbeat, proving that it is alive.

Whenever Ibaraki stirs or moves significantly in its slumber, it emits an electromagnetic pulse that causes certain types of energy high technology to go haywire nearby, thus requiring the EMP resistant Nanotitanium shields in the outpost. It is believed that if awoken, Ibaraki's would have a far greater conscious control of its energy pulse and that it's pulse would have a far greater sphere of effect.

It is believed that in ancient times, the pulses released by Ibaraki and possibly others of its race may have effected negatively magical development and Yggdrasil ley line growth, which could explain why most early Japanese societies that dealt with hostile extra species and ancient youkai had to primarily rely on marital might and weaponry.

The exact circumstances that forced Ibaraki into hibernation are unknown, along with whether it is indeed the last of its kind.

Oni: Possible Relation (???)

The Oni are a long extinct extraspcies, primarily known through myths and fossils. The Oni were horned humanoids, with bodies like that of great apes with two curved horns atop their heads. Different species have been identified, with some hunched over like Gorilla's with a similar size and others with bodies almost identical to humans with the exception of the horns and other anomalies.

Despite their primary mammalian nature Oni also tend to contain other traits seen in fossils, with examples including shards of reptilians scales along with endoskeleton moltings like that of an insect, all of which is varied in all known fossils.

Aside from local legends and fossil records, the primary source of Oni knowledge comes from lore from extraspcies, which describes them as being drinkers and brutes similar to that of human lore, though with the passing of time the veracity of said accounts is unknown fully.

The main two sources of Oni fossils comes from a nearby "Ring of Death" around Mt. Ooe, where the fossils where found following the beginning of facility construction in 2010. The ring contains the buried remains of at least fifty Oni, with decapitation and edged damaged to neck on almost all specimens. The other source came from an expedition in 2008 from a rediscovered cave system under the Fuyuki Quarantine Zone in which thirty skeletons were found.

A possible relation to Ibaraki is suspected; the Oni may have been derived from human ancestors hypothetically exposed to and mutated overtime by Ibaraki's blood and bioradiation, or they may have been a juvenile form of the adult creature.

Multiple causes for Oni extinction have been proposed. One account taking archeological evidence into acclaim claims that they were likely wiped out following an exhaustive extermination campaign by the legendary Minamouto Raikou [Yuuki Hypothesis].

Another explanation, simpler but less explored is that they were wiped out by whatever event sent Ibaraki fleeing into hibernation [Richtofen Hypothesis.].
