Impressive story! The backgrounding and detailing is somewhat exceptional and fanatical at the same time, with interesting characters and highlights. What it needs though is some more character dialogue and it will be a great story for all to see.
The Orinthian Knight: The Broodmother’s Awakening P5
Dilo stood at the edge of a crowd of both survivors and creatures alike, all staring and cheering at a somewhat familiar circle platform. Just when he thought it couldn’t get any worse, that’s when he recognized the chalicotherum brawling with the iguanadon (that Dilo suspiciously believed was transported from the Island.)
The locals were used to calling the chalicotherum Charcoal? Why? He was an intimidating figure to be reckoned with. One look at his rigid and scarred fur, dark as night, and you would think twice about fighting him. And even Dilo was afraid of Charcoal.
Just right after Dilo was sent on a mission to find the Implant Pyramid, his first destination was the original Island. He tried asking the local survivors for assistance, but none turned their sights on him. Then one day, one survivor had enough of Dilo just walking around on their streets, and sent a huge chalicotherium after him, his fur still retaining the color it had to this day. Dilo had barely survived the encounter, but Charcoal also survived, seeing his attack as a mere warning.
Dilo had dreaded the next time he would see Charcoal again.
“Sir, is everything alright?” Drydunes had asked, his voice with low key concern for the dilophosaur. Thats when Dilo looked away from the battleground and saw a huge poster on the side.
‘Winner who manages to defeat Charcoal gets 100 amber and this exclusive prize’ it stated, and right below the crooked text was the dark, small pyramid, exactly as the Overseer had described…
Dilo knew this was his only chance to retrieve it. “Yes, I am fine, old man. I should go in that ring.” But just as he let his sentence out, the dead body of the iguanadon from earlier came flying towards Dilo and Drydunes’s side. A female survivor in ragged hide cloth, presumably the Dino’s owner, tumbled to the deceased creature, crying openly, mourning its death.
“WHOS NEXT,” Charcoal bellowed, his voice affecting nearly everyone in the ring. Dilo had started to consider whether or not to enter the treacherous battle-scarred platform, yet at last, decided to enter the arena… and presumably to his doom.
my very first tame was a dilo (I forgot it’s name) we went hunting together, (most of the stuff I did with him I forgot, it was a long time ago)
but when I was hunting a trilobite, I killed him with my spear by accident, because I had friendly fire on. one up = one prayer from my first dilo :(
In one save on the island I got this dilo, it was my first dino and I named them spitter, it saved from from another dilo and I was gonna take it home. It was dark and I was switching between starving and not starving because I only had berries (this was my first day) so I was panicking because I was dying while I can't see nothing and ran into the water, a Paraina killed me and I had to respawn obvi, and I was hoping Spitters hadn't died and I ran over to the spot and saw Spitters name, then at the corner of the screen I saw "Spitter (lvl 26) was killed by Paraina (lv12)" after The name disappeared
One Dilo Tamed=One Paraina Killed and multiple dinos saved
Rapter story: Chapter 1
I am hated by most animals. Why? I mean, who would want to be pounced on every time you try to walk in the woods? As normal, I was low on hunger. I wandered the beaches in need of a dodo. I didn't find a dodo, instead, I found a Dilophasaur. But, he was different. He had a name. Then a human ran Infront of me and started firing arrows at me. I tried to pounce but I was knocked out. When I woke I was inside a hut. A campfire, bed, a... A dodo! I licked my lips as I charged at the dodo but I stopped. Something inside of me was telling me that it was wrong to kill the dodo. I never felt like that in forever! Then, the human called me...

I personally have tamed almost 20 of these guys and my first army helped me fight a bronto that I accidentally punched (mobile) and anyways about half of them died R.I.P but the strongest survived and are now O.G.s and a started taming more, but I have named every single one and never reused a name, which means 40+ names but my five favorites in order are Selena, Hex, Rachel (daughter of hex and Selena), Hector, and Jena.
Hex was named after my first parsaur who was killed by a sarco so in memory of the first hex I raised an army starting with Hex the dilophosaur
Selena was found at a high level and has a whopping health of almost 700 (good for a noob like me)
Rachel is good stat wise (not as good as Selena) and is daughter of my 2 favorites
Hector was an OG that survived me killing the bronto
Jena accompied me into the cave during a pursuit helping kills spiders and scorpions (or whatever their names are) while I was passed out due to torpor, Jena also helped kill my first raptor, funny thing is I thought Jena was a boy so her first name was Gene but I found out she was not a he so she got her name changed to Jena.
Also my sixth favorite is lily, she is an OG almost as old as hex and is one of the ones that has been through the most.
More stories of my dilophosaur army? Yeah or nah?
The Orinthian Knight: The Broodmother’s Awakening P3
Foreword: Lol I have not posted ima long time but here is another chapter bluds.
The thorny dragon was confused. How. He had already dealt with thugs and bandits, raging sandworms and hypocrites that worshipped the Manticore. Now there was a talking DILOPHOSAURUS, in the middle of nowhere.
“Good sir,” Drydunes replied in response to Dilo, “May I ask you, what are you searching for, exactly. You appear as if you came a long way.” Dilo had not responded for a while. Then the lone warrior handed Drydunes a tattered, old paper, still in good condition somehow. It consisted of a picture of a dark, 3-dimensional small pyramid with what appeared to be a Survivor implant inside, as well as some background information, which read:
“The key to finding a lost entity of great power, meant as a test for any that dares attack her.”
Drydunes thought about it for a minute, then answered, “I do know one place with something that looks like that. Well, a map that leads to it of course.” Drydunes attempted to sound as confident as he could, but he was trembling inside and just wanted the situation over as quickly as possible. “Show me.” Dilo said.
A few minutes later, Drydunes had packed up for a short journey, asking his childhood friend to watch over the place while he was gone. “This is of utmost importance, old friend. I need you to watch over this old inn while I am gone. And if you see any thugs trying to shoplift, kick them in their pants.” And he was gone.
To be continued
STORYTIME, (yay🥳) So, 1 or 2 years ago I used to breed dilos, I had 10-15, for some reason that I don’t remember (probably therezinhasaurus or a really strong pack of raptors) only 2 of them survived, General and his wife Rosa, they helped me a lot to kill raptor and random Dino’s that kept trying to invade my base, so they became really special to me, and now they are retired on herbivores island, in a secondary base (I only play on Single Player because I’m to scared to multiplayer) enjoying life with another special Dinos ou weak pets that I don’t want to lose, so please take care of your dilo, they may not be the best, but they are really nice pets and companies.
The Orinthian Knight: The Broodmother’s Awakening P2
Foreword: This currently takes place 3 years after the flashback of something like that. The Overseer had changed Dilo’s size to two-meters to help him disguise himself.
3 years (7 dilophosaurus years) later - Location: Scorched Earth ‘Drydune Inn’
The dunes of the Scorched Ark have not changed since it was first raised off of the now-deserted planet Earth. Few survive in the sands, even fewer being people… Yet no one expected a two-meter tall hooded Dino to walk into one’s building.
Drydune Inn was a quaint little building located on a sand dune just right next to an oasis. It is said that someone built it out of a Rock Elemental’s body. The current owner of the Inn was a Thorny Dragon that it’s owner had taught to stand upright and even speak. The owner had soon disappeared, leaving the Thorny Dragon to run the place by himself. He had served many customers that wandered the Ark, yet didn’t expect a ‘supposedly a dilophosaurus’ of all dinos to enter, much less by itself.
Dilo had been given an implant that changed his size, allowing him to sneak into crevices and buildings that most of the Overseer’s minions cannot. He had crafted clothing made of the scales of a Sarcosuchus that had proved a worthy fight for him, and strapped in a hood to cover his head. His years of training allowed him to use weapons to defeat his enemies, primarily a pump-action shotgun.
“You.” Dilo approached the Thorny Dragon, aware that someone could attack him at any moment. “You have any jobs going around here?” He had asked.
