Radium is a Reicubas/Godzilla Hybrid, and a Periodic Genesis Kaiju (PGK). Like all the other PGKs, he was created by KoopaGalaxain.
Appearance[]
Radium has the overall body plan of Godzilla, but with a head that closely resembles that of Reicubas, having a pronounced flared 'crest' and two widely placed, blue eyes. Radium also has two fearsome claws in place of hands. Radium's claws and dorsal fins are bright blue in colour.
Personality[]
Once one of Francium's most loyal followers, Radium is haunted by the events of Caesium and Wolfram's revolt, and while he follows his new leader with a similar degree of loyalty, inside he shoulders a great deal of guilt from the actions he took on that day, especially with regard to setting Francium's palace ablaze and leaving his leader to die amidst the flames.
In the present day, he strives to protect the other PGKs, though he keeps this protective nature hidden deep below a stoic and reserved exterior.
History[]
Pre-Dawn of Sepsis[]
After Francium wiped the ancient Earth clean, he created a set of seven sons to rejuvenate the Earth and leave it suitable for life once more, with Radium being among them. Alongside Wolfram, Radium was also tasked with being one of Francium's royal guards.
However, Caesium, Francium's first son, soon began plotting to overthrow Francium and fellow brother Mercury, and enlisted Wolfram onto his side. After Wolfram brutally assassinated Mercury and mortally wounded Francium, Caesium discovered that Francium had not yet died. Shocked by what had happened, Radium quickly joined Caesium's side along with the other PGKs, unwilling to oppose him and risk a similar fate. Caesium then commanded Radium to set the royal palace ablaze, and Radium complied, leaving Francium to finally die among the flames.

Abilities[]
- Claw Blaster (クローブラスター Kurō Burasutā?): Radium can discharge powerful bolts of electricity from his claws. The power of the electricity varies dependent on the availability of metals in the surrounding area.
- Radium Ray (ラジウム熱線 Rajiumu Nessen?): Radium can fire an empowered, bright red version of Godzilla's atomic breath, boosted by radioactive elements in the environment and the concentrated amounts of radium contained within Radium's body.
- Adept Swimmer: Radium can travel at speeds in excess of 100 miles per hour through the water.
- Burrowing: Radium's claws are well-suited for travelling below ground at high speed.
Trivia[]
- Though Francium is chronologically the first of the PGKs, Radium was the first PGK to be released to my deviantART account.
- Coincidentally, while Francium's respective element is the final element in the alkali metals (Group 1), Radium's namesake is the last element in the second periodic table group, the alkaline earth metals.
