<div class="IPBDescription">Includes Scorpian That Hovars Without...</div> Firstly, I must thank everyone who contributed to NS The Behemoth by bombarding me with replies and pointing out my mistakes. Also, this is also kind of like a background information stuff. I will list the monsters from the ones that appeared at the start to the end.

Picture by : natural-selection.org
Height : 5 Metres Tall
Length : 8 Metres Long
Weight : 20 Tonnes ( 20 000 kg )
Species : Onos / Kharaa
Type : Mutated Onos of freak size
Occurance : Only one of its type
Weapons : Extremely tough armor and three huge horns, combined with its immense body weight.
Food : Anything weaker than it
Abilites : Cloak and Scent of Fear
Weakness : Too bulky to move about easily
Appearance : Chapter 2
Killed In : Chapter 36
Killing Record : Jeff and Mike
Background Information : An exceptionally large mutated Onos borned at Behemoth. It was orginally a normal Onos but as time passed, it soon towered over other Onos. Eventually, it grew to be much larger than a typical Onos, with a record weight of 20 tonnes. When all the other humans had been wiped out completely, the Onii then prowled the accessable areas of Behemoth, eating whatever food there was. In the end however, Onii soon changed it's diet : It began to kill and devour any other Onos it saw. Until finally, the Onii had pratically eaten off all other Onos at Behemoth, and it began to feed on the other Kharaas. The Onii eventually became independent from the hive, and it moved through Behemoth alone, eating everything it could find. All other Kharras avoided it for it was too strong to be killed. Onii also do not possess any spiked tentacles behind its frill, they were all ripped out in a fight with a rival Onos. When the Onii grew to be too large to move through Behemoth easily, it made use of its great power and broke through walls and forced itself through. It is also incredibly tough, as it survived a direct explosion from a B-Grenade. Few Kharras can stand up against the Onii as it packs a lot of power and its three horns are deadly weapons. The Onii has a remarkable sense of smell which it uses to detect food from a long distance away. Lastly, the Onii can cloak as well. It usually does not cloak but when situations arise when it wants to avoid detection, it would cloak in an alarmingly fast speed. It was finally killed by Jack when its head armor had been blasted off and he stabbed its head with a knife.

Height : Un-estimated
Length : Un-estimated
Weight : Un-estimated
Species : Vines and Tentacles / Bacterium 'Plant'
Type : A colony of Vines and Tentacles living together in a symbiosis relationship
Occurance : Common
Weapons : Great strength and large numbers
Food : Small insects when young, when matured eats anything small enough for it to catch
Abilities : Silence
Weakness : Area-of-effect weapons
Appearance : Chapter 20
Killed in : Chapter 36 ( After Chapter 20, there was still a lot of them )
Killing Record : No one
Background Information : Even in the world of the Kharaa, creatures forming symbiosis relationships with one another is not uncommon. Medusa's Hair is an example. It is a colony of vines and tentacles which have all came together to form a single creature known as the Medusa's Hair. Medusa's Hair does not have a fixed shape but looks somewhat like a huge mass of long slimy snakes. The tentacles are stronger and tougher and stay on the outside while the vines stay protected inside. Both organisms benefit from this relationship. While the tentacles reach out to grab whatever prey available and pull them towards it. Immediately, the main body would then reach out and engulf the prey. The vines would wrap around the prey completely and digest the prey alive. In short, the tentacles are the shield and attackers, the vines are the killers and digester. After digestion, the prey would be reduced to nothing but a liquid and be rapidly absorbed by the tentacles and vines. It is a really slow painfully process as the prey is digested alive for a long time. Normally when young, both tentacle and vine are individual seperate species which eat small prey. When matured however, they would seek out each other and come together. Eventually, the Medusa's Hair would build up in size and number and can grow so large, even Onos are unsafe from them. Medusa's Hair is extremely weak as an individual but as a colony together, is very strong. Medusa's Hair are easily destroyed by Nanos, flames or any area-effect weapon. The Medusa's Hair which Jack and the others encountered was killed when Jack bursted a pipe which spilled out un-purified Nano directly onto it.

Picture by : Deunen
Height : 18 Metres High
Length : 30 Metres Long
Weight : 100 Tonnes ( 100 000 kg )
Species : Queen / Kharaa
Type : 'Warchief' or leader of other Kharaas
Occurance : Extremely Rare
Weapons : Enormous size, clawed feet, tail, jaws, tongue and armor
Food : Anything except Kharaa
Abilities : Focus and Regeneration
Weakness : Underbelly and too bulky
Appearance : Chapter 24.5
Killed In : Chapter 26
Killing Record : Reza
Background Information : The closest thing to a leader of the Kharaa troops. The Queen is as equally important as a Hive, only that it is far more deadly. The biggest land animal in record which can rival dinosaurs in size, the Queen is much more dangerous however, than anything else that can reach a similer size. Queens are not the only one of its kind, in fact, they can be evolved from a single Skulk. Fortunately though, Queens are extremely rare and almost never ever seen. Few marines have seen a Queen and lived to tell the tale. A Queen can easily take on many marines at once. Its tough armor easily deflects the strongest of bullets, it is resistant to flames of a GL. It can easily make use of its great size and stomp on its enemy and it could also rip everything else apart with its terrible claws and teeth. A Queen however, also respects and cares for other Kharaas as much as a mother would love her child. Queens are only seen when there are huge masses of Kharaa and they are fighting a tough battle. The problem with a Queen is that its egg takes a really long time to evolve into a full-sized Queen. During the evolution of a Queen, all other Kharaas nearby would gather by its egg and protect its egg regardless of what they were doing before. Also, a Queen would die automatically after a long period of time. Once it dies, its remains are devoured by other Kharaas. A Queen was finally killed by Reza after it ate him but he threw a grenade into its throat and killed it from the inside.
You forgot the other weap...xenocide, acid rocket and primal scream <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo--> aren't the skulks suppose to the expandable.
The B-Grenade killed the queen
It did NOT kill the onii. How does that work? The queen should be stronger than the onii
it's more 1 sided than <!--emo&::onos::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tiny.gif' /><!--endemo--> vs <!--emo&::skulk::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/skulk.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='skulk.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Mike was impaled on the Onii's horn, and he pulled the pin off the B-Grenade. So that means the B-Grenade exploded on the Onii's frill, its most protected area.
Understand now?

Height : 2 Metres Tall
Length : 8 Metres Long ( With Tail Outstretched )
Weight : 5 Tonnes ( 5000 kg )
Species : Unknown
Type : Unknown
Occurance : Unknown
Weapons : 2 Pincers and Sting
Food : Anything It Can Kill
Abilities : Carapace and Fly
Weakness : Unknown
Appearance : Chapter 33
Killed In : Chapter 36
Killing Record : No One
Background Information : Perhaps the most mysterious of all the monsters of Behemoth, little is known about the Scorpion other than it being very strong. One thing however is certain about the Scorpion. It is not a Kharaa species. Kharaas usually have greenish-yellowish blood, unlike the Scorpion which has got blue blood. Also, the Scorpion seems even tougher than a regular Kharaa. Strangely enough, places where the Scorpion prowls has got completely no trace of Bacterium. The Scorpion also uses venom, unlike Kharaas which have no form of attacks having anything to do with venom. The deadly venom is stored in its sting, which can penetrate even steel. Combined with the muscular tail, enormous pincers and tough Carapace, the Scorpion was more than a match for Jack and Sophie. It was finally killed by Sophie when she released a huge crate directly on it, crushing it immediately.
Maybe someone can request Kyliegirl to make one.........but it's kinda rude to really call her to draw something she don't usually do.
Just something I thought I would add. Not anywhere near the size of the one in Behemoth though.
Edit - Spelling
