1st appearance	Trajan vs.Thresher

  Powers:

Thresher possesses an intense perfection of every attribute within the Gigan species. Thresher has been naturally endowed with an augmented version of the Forehead, Mouth, and Eye beam, each increased to their full intensity for maximum effectiveness. Thresher possesses two shoulder buzz saws in addition to his abdominal saw. Each shoulder saw can be thrown from its holding and controlled by Thresher. Two sickle shaped blades rest on his forearms, these can be shot from their holdings and controlled as well. Attached to each of Thresher's shoulder pads is a single crystal which can be launched at any target. The crystals themselves possesses small spines which allow them to attach themselves to a moving target. Thresher possesses a set of concealed wings characteristic of the Nebulan Planet Busters and is an expert in aerial combat. Physically, Thresher has yet to be matched in strength, power, or endurance, and his intelligence has surpassed any Gigan type thus cataloged by the Nebulans.

Thresher also has the unusual ability to adapt himself to the water. He is capable of underwater combat and is equipped with two large crystals on his back which can also be detached and controlled. When released, the crystals act as depth charges. The crystal upon thresher's forehead can be used to illuminate his way, or draw attention if he so desires. To ease the land to water conversion, Thresher also possesses a second set of wings, which can be deployed at will after Thresher is submerged.

 

Notes from the Creator

*MAN* do I like Thresher!!! For awhile I was started to get, I dunno, a bit disenchanted with Trajan, and then figured out why: no one could beat him. True, there were creatures created that could certainly give him a good run for his money, but none of them were capable of getting a decisive win over Trajan without any outside help. Thresher, simply put, can. I've always been a firm believer that when you have a main character, or someone who's the focus of a story it's important to establish him/her as a power to be reckoned with, but there comes a time when you need to put that character up against someone who is, quite frankly, stronger than they are. Not just physically, but mentally, emotionally, etc. Something that balances the two out and but takes it a step further and gives the antagonist the edge... That is what I believe I've done with Thresher. He's stronger than Trajan, and the worst, possibly the scariest part about him is that he *knows* it. He's not overly arrogant about it, he's not cocky to the point where he's careless, he knows what he can do, and he does it. At this point in time, both he and Trajan are vying for the spot of my favorite gigan in this series...
