Description Mokele-Mbembe: Mystery of the Wetlands

Design Aspect
Mokele-Mbembe is based on the cryptid creature of the same name. I used solely sauropods on her, the sauropods that I used were argentinosaurus, apatosaurus, diplodocus and saltasaurus. I know these chosen sauropods all look similar in a way but I just broke down each parts and reform them. I also used an image for the spikes although mine have lots more quills and spikes and tried to mod them after the saltosaurus. She is of darker brown and light orange on her belly, with light green stripes. The tip of the spikes and some quills are green to highlight that she can causes poison and sickness to others.

I decided that Mokele-Mbembe to be a female and a male one was found but he was long dead, which will be in the history. 


Biological Information
Height: 620 feet
Length: 1450 feet (from head to tail)
Weight: 75,000 tons

History
Mokele-Mbembe is a creature of great mystery. Congolese called this creature a river spirit and some in Africa worshiped them as Gods calling them as Adroa, Oba or Ymoja. However, Mokele-Mbembe is a Titan of mystery like Nessie. What is known however there appeared to be two Mokele-Mbembe in the past and they resided within Congo river basin. Mokele-Mbembes appeared to help the wetlands thrive but causes sickness to those venture near them. Some time in the past, Ghidorah had killed the male Mokele-Mbembe before he can escape, making him one of the victims when Ghidorah arrived on Earth before one Titan bow to Ghidorah in submission. However, the female Mokele-Mbembe was able to escape by dissipating into the mist and Ghidorah left her alone. 

In the present time, Mokele-Mbembe is hibernating at Parc Marin des Mangroves in the Congo river basin where she was found. There was initially difficult to find her because Mokele-Mbembe's radioactive signature was like the mist disappearing and reappearing. However, it was thank to the radioactive signature found on the remains of a Mokele-Mbembe in Wangata that allow them to find her. It was found out that while she was hibernating, she apparently turns into mist and back into flesh which apparently is a defense mechanism. When Ghidorah called out to the Titans he defeated, Mokele-Mbembe awoke and give out a high pitch scream similar to being terrified. She then dissipated into the waters to an unknown location. Some time later, she somehow entered into a combat in Kisangani, Democratic Republic of the Congo against a Titan controlled by Ghidorah. 


Powers and Abilities
Mokele-Mbembe is a Titan which look similar to that of sauropod dinosaurs like apatosaurus and dipolodocus. In close combat situations, Mokele-Mbembe tends to try and crush her opponents using with her front legs. Otherwise, she uses her neck and tail. In very rare occasion, she bites her opponents. She also relies on the quills and spikes on her body as a defensive measure. 

Mokele-Mbembe's main ability is manipulation of the wetlands which allows her to manipulate mud and seemed to influence the surroundings of the wetland. She is able to turn into water and mist which normally meant that she is escaping from larger enemies. She also uses her ability to turn into water in order to turn the soil beneath her feet and manipulate the mud. Mokele-Mbembe also seemed to able to generate poison which causes sickness, however these sickness are not life threatening neither are the effects immediate.

THIS is what Mokele Mbembe will look like in the Monsterverse. Wait, this character is a " She "?

Please read my summary, she had a mate who is the other Mokele-Mbembe and he's dead. 

And no, the design is my own interpretation. 
She is based on the more traditional Mokele-Mbembe design and I weaved in the river gods and goddesses who Africa worshiped into the story which also include the mate when he is alive.

If you are looking for Monsterverse interpretation, may I suggest my depiction of Grootslang.
