Uprising

Spinejackal is a Category IV Kaiju.

Biology

Spinejackal was a tall, gray-skinned Kaiju with bioluminescent traces emitting from its mouth and eyes. On the back of its head and back were multiple barbed protrusions running down toward its tail. It possesses a jaw with mandibles and walked upright. It possessed panoramic vision from the abundance of eyes around the head enabling it to see front, sides, and back all at once.[1]

History

Spinejackal emerges from the Breach and attacks the Sydney Opera House in Sydney, Australia. Mark-3 and Mark-5 Jaegers Vulcan Specter, and Striker Eureka are deployed against the Kaiju. Spinejackal, proves difficult to master.[1]

It preemptively thwarts the attacks of Vulcan when it attempts to herd it away from the city. It avoids Striker Eureka's Anti-Kaiju missile barrage attack. Eventually Vulcan Specter pushes far enough away from the city that Striker Eureka is able to use a nearby windmill to cut the top of its head off.[1]

Around 2035, the Sisters of the Kaiju acquire the hand of a Category IV Kaiju. As part of their sermon, they present the hand to the public in a move to gain more followers. During one presentation at the Hollywood Boulevard, Hannibal Chau believes the Kaiju hand was that of Spinejackal's.[1]
