| |
| '''Amhuluk''' is a [[Titan]] first mentioned in the [[2019]] film ''[[Godzilla: King of the Monsters]]''. Its design was revealed in the [[2021]] [[Legendary Pictures|Legendary]] graphic novel ''[[Godzilla Dominion]]''.
| |
|
| |
|
| Awakened by [[King Ghidorah/Legendary|King Ghidorah's]] call in 2019, Amhuluk escaped from the [[Monarch]] outpost surrounding it in the Komi Republic. It was later pacified when [[Madison Russell]] activated the [[Orca]] in Fenway Park. Sometime later, Amhuluk encroached on [[Behemoth|Behemoth's]] territory in the Amazon rainforest, but was confronted by [[Godzilla/Legendary|Godzilla]] and convinced to leave.
| |
| ==Name==
| |
| Amhuluk is named after a water monster from the folklore of the Kalapuya tribe in Oregon. The creature, described as a horned dragon covered in spotted fur, was associated with drowning, disease, and the malarial fog.<ref name="A Book of Creatures">{{cite web|url=https://abookofcreatures.com/2019/01/21/amhuluk/|title=Amhuluk|work=A Book of Creatures|accessdate=17 October 2021}}</ref> [[Monarch]] gave Amhuluk the [[Titan]] designation '''''Titanus Amhuluk'''''.
| |
| ==Design==
| |
| Amhuluk's body is bulky, asymmetrical, and resembles a mess of black vines tied together. It possesses four legs and two arms. Blue-colored streaks adorn its body. What looks like trees protrude from the creature's back. Amhuluk has a fish-like face with multiple yellow, glowing eyes, a stinger-tipped tongue, and squid-like tentacles protruding from the back of its neck.
| |
| ==Personality==
| |
| Amhuluk appears to be hostile towards other Titans aside from Godzilla, as it was seen violently fighting Behemoth.
| |
| ==History==
| |
| ===''[[Godzilla: King of the Monsters]]''===
| |
| Amhuluk was among the Titans awakened by [[King Ghidorah/Legendary|King Ghidorah's]] alpha call and escaped from [[Monarch]] Outpost 66 in the Manpupuner Rock Formations. It was pacified when [[Madison Russell]] activated the [[Orca]] in Fenway Park.
| |
| ==Books==
| |
| *''[[Godzilla vs. Kong: The Official Movie Novelization]]'' (2021) [mentioned]
| |
| ==Comics==
| |
| *''[[Godzilla Dominion]]'' (2021)
| |
| ===''[[Godzilla Dominion]]''===
| |
| Amhuluk fought with [[Behemoth]] in the Amazon rainforest. Amhuluk split one of Behemoth's tusks with a single slash from its hand. Behemoth struck at Amhuluk with his other tusk, only for the Titan to retaliate with a punch. Amhuluk grabbed onto Behemoth's other tusk and began to drag him along the river. After having sensed Behemoth and Amhuluk's battle, [[Godzilla/Legendary|Godzilla]] made his way to the river. When he arrived, he watched the two Titans battling and decided to intervene. Amhuluk continued to drag Behemoth, but was shoved into a nearby shoreline by Godzilla. Godzilla roared at Amhuluk, prompting the Titan to leave the area.
| |
| ==Abilites==
| |
| ===Telekinesis===
| |
| According to ''[[Godzilla Dominion]]'' artist Drew Johnson, Amhuluk is merely a head and spine; the rest of its "body" is a telekinetically-assembled mass of "old vegetation, logs, branches, [and] moss."<ref name="Amhuluk TK">[https://www.instagram.com/p/COJWvDYAITF]</ref> It can telekinetically hurl parts of itself at opponents at high speeds, shown when one of its arms split one of Behemoth's tusks in two at a long distance.
| |
| ===Physical abilities===
| |
| Ahmuluk possesses great strength, as it was able to break apart Behemoth's tusk with one slash and knock him down with a punch. It was also able to drag Behemoth's 354-foot-tall body along the Amazon River.
| |
| ===Amphibiousness===
| |
| Amhuluk has an amphibious lifestyle, being able to fight Titans on land and swim away when needing to retreat.
