He was meant to be an old ally along the lines of Rodan, but made into a bird both in order to differentiate him from Rodan and because I already have a pteranodon character (Giant Monster Terongo, Terror of Pago Pago). I think I named him “Birdogon” in my notes.
In addition, Kaijumax color assistant Jason Fischer suggested I make his cry of pain into “Wark” to suggest a kinship to the chocobos from Final Fantasy. I’m nothing if not open to more dumb references to pop culture monsters, so in it went, as his dying bleat.
RIP Birdogon.
