More Dimorphodon Stories Tips
This isn’t really a tip but I had this dimorphodon named Eagle who was super quirky and occasionally killed things that tried to kill me from compys to allos. On day a theri wandered onto my wooden base and guess what happened. 20 of my BEST tames were slaughtered along with my best Iguanodon for travel. Eagle tried to put a stop to it but was killed in the process. All my other creatures were passive. There wasn’t even an implant to revive her with. D: I was so filled with rage, I trapped it and killed it slowly and painfully with my lvl 131 dodo. Rule? Kill and aggressive creatures before they kill ur pets.

Chapter 6
The next couple of days where crazy so I’ll just summarize. The rider took us back to a small hidden base where several others where hiding out. Apparently they had once been a large powerful tribe, but had recently been wiped out. There were only a few of them left. Why they let us in I still don’t understand. Which put me on edge almost all the time. But in the end I warmed up to them and we became part of their tribe. Me and Kate made a home with them. It was like being in a pack. Like when I still had my siblings. We looked out for each other. And there were plenty of other tames to play with. Finally I had a family again and I knew that whatever came my way, I would be ready for it. I’ll leave you here. But don’t worry, I have a feeling that there’s somebody else just dying to get your attention.

Chapter 5
I felt like a tiny ant, and I was used to being small, but this was just different. The trees grew so high it was like they where holding up the sky. I coward closer to Kate. She seemed to sense my unease because she started to talk softly. But she soon trailed off as her voice seemed unnaturally loud in the still forest. All I wanted to do was get back to my familiar beach and jungle that I had grown up in. But we pressed on. I was on high alert, every little rustle of leaves, ever little insect chirp sent a chill down my spin. So of course the moment I heard something bigger and louder I lost it. I launched myself off of Kate’s shoulder and flapped high into the safety of the trees above. It wasn’t until I was already high up that a feeling of dread creeped up my throat as I realized I had left Kate behind. I quickly spun around and looked down. Desperately searching for Kate. When I spotted her my heart stopped. She was standing there face to face with a survivor on a raptor! She wasn’t running or fighting, she was just standing there! I quickly dove down towards the rider. I plummeted right into him, nocking him off of his tame. I began to bite at his arm fiercely, but he had some sort of armor on. Then his raptor snapped at me, narrowly missing my wing. I cried out in fear and flapped away as fast as I could. I circled in the air a few times then quickly went to Kate’s side. “Why aren’t you running?” I wondered.
“Oh no are you ok?!” She said, but she wasn’t talking to me? She was talking to the rider. “Bad Drake Bad! Don’t do that!” She yelled, this time at me. She took a step towards the fallen rider but the raptor blocked her way and snarled. I snarled back, but made sure to keep my distance. Then the rider slowly sat up and whistled to his raptor. The raptor looked at him then stopped snarling and got out of the way. Kate walked forward and helped the rider up.
“That’s quite the dimorphidon you got there. He just came out of no where.” The rider said.
“Oh yeah, sorry about that.” Kate replied smiling. I looked from one to the other. One day we were running for our lives from another survivor, the next we were making friends. I wish they would make up their minds on wether to be friendly or not.

Chapter 4
We where walking along the beach. Well Kate was walking, I was riding. But anyways it was a bright sunny day and we where happily enjoying each other’s company when I casually looked up and saw something circling in the sky. I let out a warning cry and Kate quickly looked up too. It didn’t take long for me to identify what it was although I had only seen it once before. It was an argy. It must have sensed our eyes on it, because it began to swoop down towards us. Kate gave a cry of surprise and began to run towards our house. I clung desperately to her shoulder, casting quick glances behind us. It didn’t take me long to identify the rider on the argy. I felt my panic beginning to rise as it grew closer and closer. We would never be able to out run it. My instincts suddenly took over and I leaped into the air and took flight. I circled around Kates head a few times then began to flap desperately towards the trees, hoping that Kate would follow. She did and we ran into the thickest part of the trees, leaving the argy and rider behind. Kate grabbed me and slid under a bush. We laid there on the cold ground for hours. When we finally came out it was almost night fall. Kate carefully picked her way through the trees back to the base, I flapped ahead making sure all was safe. When I came to our house my heart fell. Everything had been destroyed, there was nothing left. My home had been ripped away from me for a second time. When Kate saw it I saw hot tears run down her cheeks. But we didn’t have long to morn, the argy and rider where still in the area and I had a feeling they would be often. It was time to find a new home again. At least this time I had Kate. Together side by side we went back into the forest to face what ever came at us as we searched for a new home.

Chapter 3
I woke up to the pleasant smell of meat cooking. I slowly opened my eyes, I was laying next to a campfire in a very small thatch hut. Everything hurt and I could barely remember what had happened the night before. Let alone how I had gotten here. Not long after I had woke up I heard the door open. In stepped the female human I had been watching the night before. Although now she had a fresh bandage around her arm. “Hello there little buddy. You’ve had a rough night. Feeling better?” She said in a soft soothing voice. I wanted to back away, to feel frightened at being so close to another creature. But something about her made me fell safe and calm, like everything was going to be just fine. I held perfectly still as she slowly reached out her hand and gently pet my head. She soon offered me a piece of raw meat which I greedily devoured. We spent about two weeks in that small thatch hut on the beach. During which the survivor, which I soon learned was named Kate, ran all over collecting what not. All the while I sat happily on her shoulder. Enjoying her company. Kate was the one that gave me my name, Drake. As the days past by we grew closer and closer. But like in any story, our peaceful little home could not stay peaceful for long.

Chapter 2
It was midnight when I was jolted awake. Immediately I knew something was wrong. I felt the air as something come fly towards me and I just managed to roll out of my nest and crash to the forest floor below. I heard a sickening crack as what ever it was crashed into my home completely destroying it, along with my siblings. Splinters rained down on me, I had never been so frightened in my life. I took off into the air, flapping my wings as fast as I could. What ever had attacked my home was still right behind me. I burst out of the trees onto the beach that I had been on only hours before. I through a quick glance behind me. That was a mistake. I caught a glimpse of a two legged predator, like a Rex but smaller. Then it rammed into me sending me catapulting through the air. I crashed into the sand. The last thing I remember before I fell unconscious was the predator turning away from me and chasing a small two legged creature down the be

Chapter 1
Hey, my names Drake. I’m a dimorphodon. You’ve prolly seen my kind flapping around the beach or in the wooded forests. We’re not much for size or fright. But I’m not here to talk about my kind. I’m here to talk about me and my story. Your about to take an ark adventure through my eyes.
I was born in a sparsely wooded area near the beach. During my time there I met many players. Most of which were beach noobs. Oh how I loved to watch them scramble about doing their best to gather resources and just survive. I remember one in particular. I’m not sure why she stood out from the rest to me, she just did. I watched as she went around gathering up her tools and what not. “Hey! This little noob might just survive the night!” I thought as I saw her swiftly erect a shelter and smartly avoid Dilos and piranhas. Before I knew it, darkness began to descend on us. I flapped slowly back to my little nest in the forest leaving the player behind. My two siblings were already there. I smiled at them as I slumped into my nest and drifted off to sleep. Little did I know that what would happen tonight would completely change my life.
