Dossier Wild: Among the carnivores on the Island that can match Tyrannosaurus in size, Spinosaurus aquareliga does not quite match its ferocity. Domesticated: Spinosaurus is an incredibly well-rounded apex carnivore. Faster than a Tyrannosaurus in water, able to travel on land unlike a Megalodon, and larger than a Carnotaurus, its all-terrain versatility may be unrivaled. For hunters who wish to have a well-rounded mount, Spinosaurus may be the ideal choice — If they can acquire one. Known Information: Spinosaurus four legs and large sail make it fairly swift on land, and incredibly fast in water. The one comforting fact about Spinosaurus is that it seems more at home near water than away from it. While the creature is insatiable while nearRead More →

Dossier Wild: Among the island’s water-based threats, Sarcosuchus excubitor is a lot what you might expect from a giant crocodile: A patient killing machine. It spends much of its days lazily waiting in the water for prey to walk near. That said, it is not opposed to scurrying onto land and pressing the issue when hungry. Domesticated: Despite being river-dwelling creatures, Sarcosuchus seem quite at ease in the oceans. More than a few fishing communities use them as mounts simply to help fight off Megalodons, or to gain better access to the resources found within the reefs. Known Information: A good tactic for escaping many predators is to jump intoRead More →

Dossier Wild: Smilodon brutalis is a solitary predator, generally found in cold, lightly wooded areas. The island’s mountains are the perfect habitat, as the mammal’s fur keeps it safe from the bitter temperature. While its huge fangs are excellent for delivering deathblows, the creature’s claws can be just as deadly. Domesticated: While not as fast as Raptors, there’s no denying the Sabertooth’s increased resilience and power. In addition, well-trained Sabertooth can be taught to use their claws to flay corpses. This may sound morbid, but it is among the best ways to quickly gather large quantities of hide from the giant beasts of the island. Known Information: DespiteRead More →

Dossier Wild: Among the deadliest creatures on the island, Tyrannosaurus dominum is a killing machine. Domesticated: Taming a Tyrannosaurus is without a doubt a primary goal for any aspiring warlord or warring Tribes. There is a reason Tyrannosaurus is considered the king of the dinosaurs (or with this genus, the ‘lord’). A Tribe that actually manages to tame one has almost nothing to fear to challenge their power. Known Information: Active mostly when hunting for food or defending its nest, a reasonable plan is to avoid every Tyrannosaurus. I’ve seen no creature on the island that can contest Tyrannosaurus for sheer dominance. It is pure power – from its bite, to its stomp, to its tail, to its arms. Despite beingRead More →

Dossier Wild: Utahraptor Prime is an incredibly aggressive species of Utahraptor found on the island. It tends to travel in small hunting packs, attacking smaller prey with its sharp teeth or enlarged foreclaws. Domesticated: Despite its normally aggressive nature, Utahraptor has become one of the main mounts for roaming bands of raiders, as well as scouts for the larger collectives. Those who ride Utahraptor claim they are difficult to tame, but fiercely loyal once they are. As a carnivore, once tamed they require a steady stream of meat to sustain. Known Information: One of the faster creatures on the island, Utahraptor often uses hit-and-run tactics against larger opponents. The large curved talon on the secondRead More →

Dossier Wild: Pteranodon wyvernus is a large pterosaur, capable of flying for incredibly long periods. While others I’ve seen on the island still call it a Pterodactyl, this is inaccurate. Domesticated: I don’t know how they did it, but I once saw a trio of Pteranodons with riders on them. This must be the fastest way to get around the island, but it can’t provide any measure of safety or secrecy. Known Information:The Pteranodon seems to be one of the least aberrant Reptile on the island. Pteranodon wyvernus mostly feeds itself by eating the small fish around the island, but they can also be found scavenging any number of dead animals. BecauseRead More →

Dossier Wild: Elasmosaurus remuspissa has a strange role in the oceanic food chain. It almost exclusively hunts the smaller creatures in the waters, leaving most even moderately large creatures (such as humans) alone. The sheer size of the Elasmosaurus means that the quantity of creatures it must eat to sustain itself is nothing short of enormous. Domesticated: Much like the Brontosaurus on land, Elasmosaurus is an excellent way to transport large quantities of goods over water. These powerful creatures are in fact so large that they can be used as mobile water bases. Ambitious tribes sometimes build bunkers right onto the backs of Elasmosaurus instead of building cargo ships. Known Information: Despite its imposing size, Elasmosaurus stillRead More →
