Germanium is a Gezora/Godzilla Hybrid Monster, and one of the original Periodic Genesis Kaiju (PGKs) created by KoopaGalaxain. While he was killed in cold blood by Keratos prior to the events of Periodic Genesis: Dawn of Sepsis, his spirit lives on and aids his successor, Germanium II.
History[]
Pre-Dawn of Sepsis[]
Germanium was one of the seven kaiju created by Francium after wiping Earth clean of all its previous life, and was tasked with creating the oceans. After the world was ready for the evolution of life, Germanium remained with Francium and his comrades at their base atop the highest mountain.
Germanium didn't take part in the successful coup by Caesium; his crushing fear of battling prevented him from acting in any capacity, and he immediately defected to Caesium's side upon seeing what he and Wolfram had done.
Periodic Genesis: Dawn of Sepsis[]
Interim Saga[]

Billions of years passed, until the newly-created Sepsis sent out his three goons, Keratos, Myos and Organon to hunt down and murder the surviving five PGKs. As Boron and Zinc were killed off by Myos as they attempted to give Germanium a chance to reach Caesium and warn him of what was taking place, Keratos caught up to Germanium, and viciously attacked him. With no way out, Germanium was forced to fight, but his inexperience meant he soon went down and was obliterated, save for a single piece that was left behind, and soon started to mutate due to the conditions of the environment the piece remained in.
This piece developed into Germanium II. Unlike his predecessor, Germanium II was both stronger and more wilful. As Sepsis and his subordinates ravaged the planet, Germanium II set out to avenge his ancestors.

Despite his apparent 'death', Germanium's spirit had lived on, and was now in the hands of his successor, Germanium II. Germanium II and Germanium's spirit fought together, with Germanium II using his predecessor's spirit to infuse his attacks and make them more powerful. Despite this boost in energy, Keratos floored Germanium II, and prepared to kill him, only for WeegeeZilla to rise up, ready to continue the fight.
Myos Saga[]

Germanium's spirit makes a brief appearance when Germanium II begins deceiving Myos while wearing Scalpel Keratos's helmet and pauldrons to buy WeegeeZilla time to recover his energy.
After Myos taunted Germanium II over the killing of Boron and Zinc by him, Germanium II's fury reached new heights. At this moment, Germanium's spirit stepped in and took over Germanium II's body, 'borrowing' it to bring himself back to life for a brief period of time. Germanium insisted that Myos would soon be dead, and in his new form, the Ancestral Amalgamation, stared Myos down, ready to fight him on his own terms. Germanium then used his Germanium Maelstrom against Myos, reducing him to a single cell, before defusing, returning Germanium II to normal.
Council of Creators[]
Alongside the other PGKs, Germanium is set to appear in Council of Creators in a future episode.
Abilities[]
Germanium[]
- Oceanic Terraforming: In the distant past, Germanium constructed what would eventually become Earth's oceans.
- Ink Spit: Germanium can fire clouds of ink from his mouth to obscure an opponent's vision.
- Seawater Jet: Germanium can fire a concentrated 'beam' of seawater from his mouth.
- Adept Swimmer: At home in water, Germanium can swim at high speeds.
Spirit[]
- Spirit Combination (魂合体 Tamashī Gattai?): When Germanium II's fury is at its peak, Germanium's spirit can take control of the body of his descendant, temporarily bringing Germanium back to life as a result. In this mode, named Ancestral Amalgamation, Germanium has full control over Germanium II's body, and can use his techniques as if they were Germanium's own.
Ancestral Amalgamation[]
- Oceanic Secret Technique: Germanium Maelstrom (海洋の奥義: ゲルマニウム・メイルストロム Kaiyō no Ōgi: Gerumaniumu Meirusutoromu?): Germanium charges up all of his energy, along with that contained with Germanium's body. As he charges energy, an illusion of the Periodic Table diagram for Germanium appears in glowing form. Once completely charged, Germanium releases the stored energy all at once in the form of a rich blue vortex, incinerating the target in an instant.
Weaknesses[]
- Germanium is horrified by the sight of his own blood, and loses the will to fight if his blood is drawn.
- Germanium II has an intense phobia of battles in any capacity out of the fear of losing his life, and as such has little fighting experience.
