Timeline:

+2000 years: Early Greek writers describe a large sea creature called the Kraken. Long

believed to be a myth this creature is later described and identified as actually existing.

1931: Dr. Halley Wright, anthropologist and African scientist is the first white person to see the legendary Nyani Mkubwa, giant albino gorilla. After months of study she befriends the giant creature and keeps its existence secret.

1952: Dinosaur egg is irradiated during atomic testing and releases Kajiro first of the rampaging kaiju. After attacking Japan, Kajiro is beaten and frozen with an experimental “freeze ray” and towed to the Artic Circle.

1955: An accident exposes US Army Office Terrence Magrueder to incredible levels of radiation. Now resembling a mutated and enraged zombie, the Atomic Soldier and was called, grew to inexplicable size. Rampaging through the Nevada desserts he is finally being brought down by the military after a battle on the Las Vegas Strip. His comatose body is secretly housed at US military research lab in California to undergo testing.

Meanwhile in Japan the monster Kazan, elemental lava monster, appears from the erupting Mount Fuji. Believed to be related to primitive volcanic gods worshipped in the distant past, the creature rages through the country side, destroying minor cites and towns. Finally it is lured into another volcano by the newly formed UN Science Alert Corps (UNSAC) and trapped with explosives.

1958: Kajiro reappears after a freak accident releases it from its iceberg prison. Kajiro makes for Japan and begins a second rampage. Driven off, but not beaten the beast goes on to become on of the more frequent kaiju threats periodically popping up to attack Japan, Korea, China and even the western US, and battle other Kaiju for years to come.

1959: Scientists discover the lost city of Atlantis and in the process awaken the legendary Kraken. The gigantic octopus begins to attack shipping and port cities in the southern and eastern US, until UNSAC defeats and takes it to Monster Island.

1960: As scientists detect a large meteor streaking to earth Karzan reappears in a volcanic eruption of Kilauea, in Hawaii. As Karzan heads to populated areas the meteor hits the Pacific Ocean and up raises Honu the space turtle. They battle and Karzan is defeated. Honu then speeds into space and disappears.

1962: A mysterious object crash lands in remote China from space and soon after the acidic blob, Suan appears. The creature rampages and feeds on electricity until it is stopped on the outskirts of Beijing by a new form of the freeze ray. The creature is transported to the newly created sanctuary “Monster Island”.

1963: A large prehistoric egg is found in Saudi Arabia and accidentally hatched releasing the pterosaur like Kharsa. The creature matures to adult form and attacks the city of Riyadh. Finally it is killed in a pitched battle with the UN Science Alert Corps in Cairo, Egypt.

1968 - 1970: The First Delok Invasion.

The first year of three years of war and destruction. In this year an advanced space civilization called The Deloks attacked Earth. Their intent was to wipe out humanity and take the Earth for their own.

As part of their plan they unleash the three-headed horror known as Tigan. After destroying Jakarta, Indonesia it heads to Tokyo. There it is stopped by Nijira the giant moth and Kajiro in a titanic battle. Nijira is killed, but not before immobilizing the three –headed dragon sufficiently for Kajiro to pummel it and finally chase it off into space. When the dust cleares a large egg is found close to the body of Nijira and taken to monster Island. Kajiro returns to the sea uninhibited by UNSAC.

Then follows two years of battles with Delok space ships, in which the enemy revealed a mind control apparatus capable of controlling the inmates of Monster Island. Several Kajiu, where freed by the Deloks and used as weapons against earth. Unofficial volunteers from Earth’s population begin attempting to use latent ESP to revert control and in some cases are marginally successful. In one of these experiments, Honu returns to Earth, after being psychically summoned, and has several battles with Delok space ships. This finally culminates in a large in orbital battle between Honu and the space dragon Drax. Drax is defeated and crash lands into the Artic Ocean, apparently dead.

The combined forces of the worlds military, and the researchers of the UN Science Corps manage to defeat most Delok attacks, but many cites are destroyed while several Kaiju are beaten and re-imprisoned on Monster Island.

Finally, in 1970 there is a massive battle in and around San Francisco in which The UNSAC jams the mind control ray and releases a newly hatched version of the second Kharsa. Kajiro surfaces for the first time since 1969 and together the kajiu and UNSAC turn the tables on the Deloks. This results in the destruction of the Delok mother ship and a large proportion of the invasion fleet. Kharsa and Kajiro are sufficiently incapacitated to be transported to the Island.

1971: After the Delok invasion UNSAC officially recognizes the assistance of 100’s of psionic individuals who help research and ultimately fight the alien mind control rays. The UNSAC begin Project Esper and the UNSAC Psion department is created.

1975: A frozen triceratops in a local glacier is exposes to toxic chemicals during a global warming induced thaw. The confused beast emerges and able to fire thermo-chemical blasts from its horns, destroys part of downtown Denver, Colorado before being captured by UNSAC.

1980: The giant albino gorilla Nyani Mkubwa is drugged and captured by poachers, who kill his human friend Dr. Halley Wright. He is transported to New York City and there an attempt is made to sell him on the black market as an attraction. Nyani escapes and revenges Dr. Wright’s death killing his captors. Eventually, Nyani is lured and captured by the UNSAC team and taken to Monster Island for safe keeping.

1982: A experimental military project called WarBot, using captured Artificial Intelligence technology from the Deloks, runs amok. Due to a combination of military inexperience with advanced technology and contractor’s abuses the robotic AI is clinically insane and attacks the military bases around Los Angeles. The long thought dead Atomic Soldier, kept in a defunct missile silo is awakened during an attack and defeats the WarBot in a battle on Sunset Strip. The robotic remains were taken to Monster Island where its self regenerating circuitry revived it. It now wanders the island attacking any kaiju it encounters.

1885: During a period in which medical waste and radiological samples wash up along the Atlantic seacoast of New Jersey, a new horror is born. Called the Slime Monster, it appears to be composed of the cells of dead marine creatures, algae medcial waste and mutated by radioactivity. It comes ashore near Newark and…

1989: A large red and gold colored centipede, named Komukade, appears in the rice growing regions of Japan. It is believed to be formed from the seepage of toxic chemicals into the soil. The Japanese Defense Forces can not contain the subterranean menace but it is finally stunned through the use pesticides. The UNSAC transport team contains it on Monster Island.

1991: A 30-meter long mutated anaconda, Serpente, wanders from the Amazonian jungles and slithers into Rio De Janeiro at Carneval time. It wreaks havoc and kills many tourists and revelers before being defeated and captured by the UNSAC forces.

1990: The secret UNSAC project called “X” is begun. It is an attempt to create a mecha-kaiju and it is decided to use Kajiro as a model for theproject.

1995: During the explosion in Molecular Biotechnology in the mid-90’s a discredited scientist unwisely clones Kajiro cells from the UNSAC repository with insect cells. The result is “Gigantis” a huge praying mantis which kills its creator, wrecks the laboratories and attacks Milwaukee and suburbs. The combined elements of the US National Guard, US Army and scientists from UNSAC subdue it and transport it to Monster Island.

2003: The secret UNSAC project Mecha-Kajiro is completed.

????: The Second Delok Invasion.

The living fossil, Acorazado, emerges from hibernation during a battle between Nyani and the mind controlled Serpente and Komukafe. The creature, which resembles a large ankylosaur with a spiked tail joins forces with Nyani and defeats the pair. Acorazado is transported to Monster Island, while Nyani heads into the Amazon.

The Deloks release the psionic, spider like creature Azathar into the South American Continent.

The long thought dead Drax reappears in the artic and attacks Norway and other Scandinavian countries, before the newly hatched second Nijira defeats it with help form UNSAC and both are transported to Monster Island.
