Summary: Godzilla and company are not the only big beasts in the Monsterverse. There are also many other Titans out there. It's just that we have yet to see much of them, as this is still a very comparatively young cinematic universe. Still, might as well give them some attention.
History: Since the beginning of time, the world has been the home of gigantic creatures known as Titans. They come in all shapes and sizes, but they mostly stay in hibernation or within the Hollow Earth, their original home. MONARCH was a top-secret organization started during the Truman years, dedicated to monitoring and containing these beasts. But alas, over the years they did a lousy job of the latter, but an admirable one with the former. Such Titans included the mammoth/ground sloth Behemoth of Brazil, the spider/nautilus-looking Scylla beneath Arizona, the horned turtle beast Methuselah in the German mountains, and the violent bioluminescent serpent Tiamat of the frozen northern oceans. It would be a shame if they were reawakened all at once...
Notable Kills: Nothing special.
Final Fate: King Ghidorah ends up awakening most of the world's Titans at the same time in order to destroy the world so he can recreate it in his image. Luckily, a girl named Madison Russell redirected their attention to Boston, where they arrived just in time to see Godzilla become the new king. Now, most roam peacefully, often stopping to help the planet heal from our hubris. They were told to go into hiding by Godzilla when he noticed Ghidorah's presence coming from APEX facilities. Unfortunately, Scylla and Tiamat were killed by Godzilla when the former attacked Rome and the latter attacked him for interrupting her accumulation of energy so that she could usurp him. Bottom line, don't mess with the king.
Powers/Abilities: Behemoth's, ahem, fertilizer, is capable of revitalizing entire rainforests. Likewise, Scylla has an unknown power that can refreeze the melting icecaps.
Weakness: Beings of equal or greater power.
Scariness Factor: 4-They're giant monsters, what did you expect? Just one taking a step could cause whole buildings to collapse. And when under the thumb of an evil space hydra, they can cause tons of damage. But with Godzilla managing them, they don’t seem to be all that bad. Though there are Titans that will go completely out of line, given the chance.
Trivia: -There are many other Titans in the supplementary material. These include the mass of small organisms Shinomura, the batlike Camazotz, the deceptive undersea predator Na Kika (or Kraken), and the tree beast Amhuluk. There are also several unseen Titans like Leviathan, Sekmet, Typhon, Baphomet, and Orochi.
-All Titans are named after beings of different mythologies. Behemoth is named after the Biblical rival of Leviathan, Scylla gets hers from the Greek monster that accompanied the living whirlpool Charybdis, Methuselah got his from the oldest humans in the Bible, and Tiamat after the Mesopotamian Goddess of the sea.
