Scunner is a Category IV Kaiju built by the Precursors and was sent to attack both mankind and the extraterrestrial race in War of the Worlds x Pacific Rim.
Appearance[]
Scunner's features and behavior are similar to that of the bull. It's broad and stocky, and it's a hammer against armored opponents like the Jaegers, and it's got two curved horns sticking out of its head. Scunner's got four arms that help it swim more quickly than its opponents in the water.
In the most severe environments, its plated body armour allows it to take a lot of damage. It has a green bioluminescence throughout its body, as does most Kaiju. Its ability to work in tandem with other Kaiju makes it a particularly dangerous foe in combat.
Like Slattern, Trespasser, and Knifehead, Scunner's primary arms are actually two fused arms ending in three-digit claws.
