I woke up one morning and decided to play rag so I hop on spawn in the Highlands and get me some carrots
I find a beautiful 150 Horse. However I didn't know bisons were not passive so I walked up to one cause I never played rag before and it killed me. When respawn it was to cold so I kept freezing to death before I could get my hide back on or craft new. After waiting 20 minutes for the cold to dissapate I went and refound the horse it has wandered close to the volcano. I hop on nervously and see a pyromane I manage to tame it with being jumped untill it was just tamed it had ran just within agro range I tried my best but I couldn't out damage it nor could I outrun it i couldn't even do the taming thing were u only have to hurt it a little cause ITS A PTW CREATURE. I died along with my horse. I closed ark and bought the pyromane cause it on sale till July 1 2026 btw. I transfer a op character from my island base and tame one up. I bring it to the middle of the ocean and drop it out. I laughed as it died to a alpha megalodon
I love these creatures, just love them. I am a pretty experienced player, and I had just got The Center. I started out on a tropical island. It was a good start. I had one carrot. I saw a few of these up on a clearing. I ran over, but there were allos everywhere. I managed to sneak up to a beautiful dark brown horse. I tamed him with one carrot. I named him Smasher.
I was only like level 12 or something, so I rode him back to my thatch starter base. Then, an allosaurus sadly ran up and murdered Smasher and my base. I turned on cheats and killed every allo in the area.
⬆️ For Smasher, who fought the allo till his last breath.
(I'm on mobile) Once upon a time I was taming that sorta rolly polly dino that I can't spell , and I saw an equus , a majestic creature that was mainly pale , but had orange legs , I pulled out my spyglass and saw it was a level 2... but I wanted an equus so bad I didnt care. I bought 5x soothing balm and took Iggy the iguanadon and gathered some rockcarrots. After taming this trotting little guy I rode him all around , looking for a female to get some awesome mutations , I found 2 more males at Carrot cake's spawn point (I named the equus carrot cake lol)
But I couldn't find a female anywhere! 😭. 3 Days later I'm still searching for a female... Up this if females of any species are SUPER hard to find , wish me luck! ♥️
1st Taming Attempt: I Find. I Get Carrots. I Try To Tame. Easy Right? *Omnious ROARRR* And I'm Like Oh S***! The Equss Refuses To Move And It Dies By A Damn Rex While I Run Away Like "YOUR ON YOUR OWN BUDDY,BYEEE." 2nd Attempt To Tame: I Find Another Equus. Get More Carrots. Successful Tame! I Run Around On This Equus For Two Days In Game. I Hear Heavy Footsteps And Turn Around Slowly And An Allo Pack Is Like , "HELLO SNACKY SNACK" My Equus Dies. And I Die. And Then I Throw My Controller At The TV Like "DAMN IT ARK CANT I HAVE A DAY OF PEACE" Ty For Wasting Your Time Reading. This Happy Trails! 😁🤣😝😎
My first noble steed Zephyr was his name. He was my loyal friend until, while returning home a Alpha Raptor threw me off my saddle. I was only a level 25 so I ran, and Zephyr bravely distracted the Alpha Raptor. He sacrificed himself for me so that one day I will have my revenge.
R.I.P Zephyr 😔

No way guys! We’re on Chapter 41?? I’ve written and you’ve read 41 Chapters?? 😮
-Chapter 41- 👊😎😎😎
“I’m so excited,” The colorful Shadowmane was whispering, bouncing lightly on her claws. “You’re going to be my first official friends outside of my own kin! Um, I hope so, at least,” she ducked her head to smile at them. “It’s not hard, right? To be friends with other kinds?”
“We’ll…” Rust began…
“Don’t tell me.” Nyx said. “I’ll just find out myself. I’ve already guessed—here you four are—and you’re obviously friends. So it can’t be too hard, right?”
Crimson let out a ginormous snort, but mercifully stayed silent. Nyx raised her eyebrows curiously, turned, and continued on.
Forest overheard a few Shadowmanes ahead, chatting quietly. He caught a few words from the conversation, and his own curiosity piked.
“What are the Ruins?” He asked finally.
“Only the hippest spot in all of Fjordur,” Nyx answered gleefully. “It’s so awesome and I love it there. I can’t wait!”
“Are we close?” Spark asked.
“Should be,” Answered another Shadowmane next to them.
“I’ve only been there three times so far,” Nyx said. “We visit Runheimr for lots of reasons, but truthfully“ —she lowered her voice into a mischievous whisper—“I think Father just likes to dance.”
“Dance?” Forest echoed, before Nyx shot her head up and squeeled, “Oh! Oh! Oh!” Excitement radiated out of her scales. She grabbed the shoulder of the nearest Shadowmane, who winced and shoved her off playfully. “There it is! There it is!”

So I had tamed a equus named Galaxy cuz of his color and I went to tame these raptors, unaware he was following me and I see him and say oh Crap and then I look up and see “Galaxy was killed by raptor” so I turn off the Xbox hoping it won’t save and I get back on and he ain’t alive so I murder the raptor and tame the other one :)

So i found another one, Tried to tame it and it ran away and DIED, A week later i found another one, So i tamed it and named him shrek.

Chapter 5
Steven looked around the camp. There were people making new settlements, people preparing meals, people tending the wounded. Even Quinn was helping a group of people pull up the wall to a new thatch hut. "What do you do Leo? Really? I mean, no offense, but you don't look like them," Steven said motioning towards the other survivors.
Compared to the muscular fighters and long-legged hunters, Leo looked more like a reptile than a person. He was scrawny and lanky, alternated between the energy of a child on stimulants and a drowsy carbonemys, and he had the smile of a baryonyx about to pounce on its prey, but despite all that, he was clever, quickwitted, and probably the most likeable person Steven had met here, with Quinn being a close second.
Leo continued cleaning his spear and responded without looking up. "I told you, moral support." He didn't have his usually completley light-hearted tone. He seemed a little irritated by the question.
Steven leaned forward. "You okay?" he asked.
Leo looked up and flashed a smile. "Perfectly fine," he said, putting away the spear, "I just don't have a set title here."
He stood up and walked from under the tarp that protected them from the gray drizzle, all the water the sky could spare. Quinn, Roman, and a guy Steven hadn't met were walking towards them. "Leo," Quinn called. She had a grim look on her face. "We need to talk."
"Alright," Leo said, wiping his hands on a cloth. "What is it?"
Quinn cast a sidelong glance towards Steven before giving Leo a nervous look. "Elliott is missing."
Leo let out a heavy breath. "Okay… why are-"
"He had the lantern."
The confusion on Leo's face gave way to a dark look. He turned and looked back to the dark frorest in the distance. "The sun is about to set. The horseman's call has already gone out, she'll be on the hunt now."
"Which is why I came to you."
"But I can't-"
"I'll take care of the lantern," Roman said. "We'll only need you if she makes an appearance."
Leo looked around at faces around him for a moment before sighing. "I'll get my cloak."

Dodo Tales (S3 Ep5)
When he awoke he was confused, and then understood that he was tied up to...a wooden board perhaps? He looked around. Nobody in sight. "Hello?!" He tried. He saw movement in the shadows and then somebody stepped forward. "Who..." they started, obviously nervous. "Who are you?".
"My name is Jerry, I'm not from here."
"We know." Said another voice.
"Who is? We all came from another ark, but we have ended are foolish ways, and stayed here in almost perfect peace." The same voice said, stepping forward and revealing herself.
"Ok, like, what are you gonna do to me though?" Jerry asked, knowing what it could be. "Interrogation"
"But-"
"That, or death. The choice is yours."
"I formed this peaceful town, and I refuse to let anyone like you ruin everything."
She said, glaring at him.
More people came from the shadows and bowed to her.
"Specifically who are you?"
"Have you forgotten that I'm not the one being interrogated?"
"What have you done to Rick and-"
"We have him."
"What about Sergeant?"
"The one that was dead? We left his body."
Jerry hid a smile...he was alive somehow and somewhere, and he knew it...
