​Description: An ancient guardian of the great Methuselah forest; she is the sole guardian of this forest for eons, probably as old as Gorgon itself. She is a giant, sentient tree organism. Called “a grande concha-mãe” from research—that translates to "the great mother shell." She is a deity of one of Gorgon's vast forests called Methuselah. She is the sole caretaker and protector of this forest, making sure to prevent when the balance of nature of Methuselah is off or at stake from wildfires, extreme weathers, flooding & landslides, or those who dare disrespect her home, and etc.

​In the vast Methuselah forest, there are hundreds of small, sentient plant creatures—the helpers of the forest. They are offspring of Shell's through a process of apomixis; they help monitor, organize, and protect the forest, too. She cares deeply for her children, cherishing every last one of them. She and her children protect and preserve Methuselah, protecting the life within—her becoming the guardian for eons, going into a deep, long slumber of years, only to be awakened if there is something happening.

​About 27 years ago, she was violently jolted awake from feeling something horrible. She felt the balance of the forest is wrong, but this is different—not something like an accidental wildfire. No, this is huge and on purpose, nothing like she felt before. When awakening, she ventures out investigating, then suddenly meets a large groups of a species—a one she has never seen. It was just another new species, perhaps still early of their species' arrival to their world that unknowingly didn't know about this forest; so, she started to politely and firmly try to stop them, but then drastically only met with hails of bullets and burning flames of fire. She retreated, but then she saw and witnessed that they were actually killing her children, all because they were just trying to stop and attack them because they were damaging the delicate balance of the forest.

​She was enraged and wanting revenge for her children and her forest, and so, she grabbed her gigantic, mighty axe and shield. She attacked them—with her other children too—of this wretched, invasive, parasitic, destructive species that is called “humanity,” managing to do so, ending about hundreds of them mercilessly. So, that moment on, any Commandos or just humans in general that steps into her domain—she or either her children will turn them into corpses that will be swallowed up by the nature's of the forest.

​Bowa, the leader of the Gorgonites, would try to meet the great mother of forest, offering a formal alliance, asking her help to fight in the war; in return, promising that her and the Gorgonites help and protect her forest. Shell accepted her deal, so she would now heavily favor Bowa and the Gorgonites—helping them fight in the war, and her allowing them to enter her forest to be of one of the many different Gorgonites' operation locations, making sure to protect their homeland and to end this war.

I saw a post recently about the small soldiers attraction at Universal studios and I noticed at the 12:28 mark in the video it looks like some small soldiers fighting game? I can't find any info on this game anywhere

I played with this thing so much when I was a kid that the joints are all worn out. I remember one time I dropped him and the arm popped out. I was devastated and started to cry but mom was able to fix it. My two favorite toys were Chip Hazard and a toy of Snake from Metal Gear Solid. (I watched movies and played video games that were probably not appropriate for my age but my parents were good at making sure I knew it was just fiction) Snake got lost somewhere over the years but mom kept Major Chip Hazard. They went on crazy adventures stopping bad guys and saving the world from all kinds of evil.
