Appearance

The Korathos walks on two sturdy legs, and has a broad yet muscular looking torso that is set in a hunched stance and is dark in color. Near the base of the split tail lie various curved and crooked growths with the tail splitting in two, a red stripe flowing down to the tips on the inside of both tails. It has two long arms with hands that have three fingers on each. On its neck are spike-like growths and at the head it has nine gleaming white eyes with no pupils in each of them along with a mouth of sharp teeth. Near the base of its bottom jaw are four long tentacles with uniquely shaped appendages at the end of them with multiple spots similar to Korathos' eyes in each of them, the tail having those same appendages at the ends of them. The feet are in a position similar to various birds of prey, having the middle part of each toe bent inward to support its massive body. **Males**: Males have multiple large spikes on their back that have a thin glowing pattern to them.

Trivia

• Concept by Stood_04 in the Creatures of Sonaria Discord.
• Animated by Mukudori. When asked about the inspirations for the concept, Stood_04 said: "I didn’t have many direct inspirations for Korathos and mostly just aimed for a good ‘ol spooky creepy vibe and went with the flow, definitely wanted a deep sea Cthulhu type feel. Being a kaiju based prompt, Godzilla is a given inspiration but I strove to set Korathos apart from Godzilla wherever I could. I definitely knew I wanted to go for an upright theropod look and went for pretty triangular shape language for it’s base body. The biggest direct inspiration for kora was actually a drawing of an Iridhuk (scrapped creature) redesign I made in my free time! I thought it had some nice features and recycled a lot of them." Additional notes from Stood_04 include: "Female Korathos’ features came first in the design process and was about to be part of the base body where instead the males had a tentacle beard and females had wispy neon tendrils that came off of the eyes." "Early in the concepting process there was an alternate bulky demon-like design for Korathos that was trashed in favor of the current one." "Korathos was originally prompted to have a weapon integrated into its design. One version had a long split jaw inspired by a crossbow which it would have been able to rip open with it’s arms and shoot a sort of projectile/breath. Other versions were organic, vaguely coral-like gun barrels that grew from the front chest/shoulder area and sickle tails."
