Toxin's last stand
Ok so I was doing the lower south cave and came across two of these. I killed the lower level one and tamed the higher level. She was a beautiful green color and I named her Toxin.
She quickly became one of my favorite tames.
Holy cow she could do everything; climb literally anywhere, had a deadly venomous bite, and overall looked awesome. We did a ton of stuff together and she ended up getting to a really high level. I decided to go do the upper south cave with her.
I wish I never had.
We got about halfway through the cave fighting our way through before we fell into a pit. There were about 10 titanoboas, 15 arthroplueras, 20 onycs, and 30 arenos. Scary. We fought our way through, but it was just too much. Swarms of dinos kept attacking and dealing significant damage to us. We were both on our last strings of health (about one hit away from death for each) when I got attacked by an arthropluera in the back, leaving me at about 10 health. I was about to die when Toxin leapt in front of me and took the hit, killing her. I literally screamed "NOOOO!!" Out loud when it happened. The amount of rage that came out of my shotgun when I killed that arthropluera was unimaginable. I probably fired way more shots than I should have but I didn't care. I'm still in pain after this, missing my Toxin, however her memory and sacrifice will never be forgotten, and I will forever know this as "Toxin's last stand." I would really appreciate a "rip Toxin" or some sort of love for Toxin. Thanks y'all. ARK COMMUNITY FOREVER!!!!
Rest in peace Toxin.
Once, I was riding my spiderlizard and this happened. A dude had a Ptera, and he was just so mean. I just couldn’t get him so I climbed a tree in the redwoods and he didn’t see me. He landed to look around on foot and that was when spiderlizard went SANIC MODE we scuttled down the tree and bit his face of. He should’ve let me alone. :) That should be a lesson to all of you, don’t pick on megalanias in the redwoods.

The imposters have been rid of, back to writing!
-Chapter 75-
Once his eyes were closed, he felt himself fall.
It was terrifying, sounds and voices whirred passed him, and as he landed, he was quick to open them again.
At first, he thought he was seeing things. His eyes were open. He was standing motionless in blue darkness, panting quietly. Then, his eyes adjusted to his surroundings, and he realized he was somewhere he’d never expected.
Walls, stone walls all around. The quiet squeak of bats nearby, the sound of talons padding down the tunnel. Niches and stalagmites and small, underground rivers flowed downstream and out of sight. He was home.
Forest swiveled his had around, confused and nostalgic. “How the heck…” He stepped forward and saw that he was in his parents cave, the one with the largest part of the river.
Then he heard someone yelling, the voice coming from everywhere at once.
“Forest!” It was his friends. “Forest!”
“What did you do?” Crimsons voice demanded.
“Crimson?” Forest called, looking around. “Spark! Rust! Guys!”
“Calm down,” Echoed the voice of the Shadowmane elder. “the test had begun. It will be over soooon, back awaaay.” He heard talons and paws scuffling acrossed the floor.
“Rock Drake,” said Cyan’s voice after a moment. “This is your test.”
“How is this happening??” Forest yelled. She did not answer. Could she not hear him?
“Do not be afraid, Rock Drake, you are safe. For now. Just breathe, calm yourself. None of this is real.”
Forest nodded and breathed in, only to smell the scent of the Shadowmane camp and his friends. ‘None of this is real.’
Was it possible to be scared and sad, and calm and comforted at the same time?
‘Wait, she said this is a test. What is it testi—‘
There was a screech from in front of him, and he opened his eyes once more.
The Araneo glared at Forest with its seven glowing eyes, growling quietly. in terror, Forest froze himself completely, only to feel the air blast in his face as the insect roared at him.
He stumbled back and ran the opposite direction, straight into one of the nearby tunnels. Blue and green glowworms illuminated the walls, but there was only a moment of safety before more Araneos burst from several holes in the walls, screeching.
He heard the muffled voices of his friends as he ran, silenced by Cyan as she hissed in Forests ear, “Stay alive.”
“STAY ALIVE??” Forest screamed, leaping down as the tunnel dropped. “WHAT ELSE AM I SUPPOSED TO DO??”
The only answer was the roar of several Araneos chasing him, climbing onto the walls and hissing loudly. One dropped itself from the ceiling, right onto Forests back. The contact caused Forest to trip and fall with a roar.
The two creatures wrestled for a moment, rolling on the cave floor. Forest held the Araneos head away from his as it snapped at him over and over again, saliva dripping from its fangs.
Struggling to keep it away from him, Forest yelled out his anger and kicked it in the abdomen. The creature was flung acrossed to the other side of the cavern, smashing into the wall. Rocks tumbled down.
Forest leapt back up, whirling around as two more jumped at him. He slashed one in the face and bolted, running back down the tunnel.
He ran and ran as the cave deepened, the glowworms becoming fewer and further between. The lights flickered, and for a moment Forest was in complete darkness.
Then the glowworms appeared again. Forest stepped forward to keep running— but stopped.
The long, winding tunnel that had been in front of him a second ago— it was gone. A flat gray wall, a dead end, stood it front of him.
Forest only had a moment to turn around before the Araneos got him.

The Riddles of the phoenixes series
Through the eyes of the dark phoenixes
Chapter eighteen: Sunny’s birthday. Part 1
Time and space suddenly warp and a universe that a woman called Sunny joins times and all her characters are gathered together in a large building. It was a large white castle. Vines with roses on them crept up the walls and the grounds. The roses were bright colors. Red, orange, yellow, you name the color it was there.
All the different characters talk to each other and marvel at one another. In the crowd a mysterious girl with bright orange hair and eyes sits shyly in the crowd. She watches all the characters with a proud look on her face. “You’re up.” Nora said to a man. The man walks to the front of the stage. A giant sarco tried to follow him on stage. “No, no Betsy. You have to stay here.” The man whispered. Aaron. Elizabeth came up and stroked Betsy’s scaly head. Aaron messed with the microphone, trying in vain to speak into it. A loud whine echoed throughout the room. “Oops sorry! Is it working now? Anyone?” Aaron calls. “Yeah we can hear you!” Paul shouts. “Same over here!” Jenny calls. “We can to!” Josephina called. Aaron grins. “Ok! Good I haven’t worked a mike-roe-phone before.” The crowd chuckles. “Today we all are gathered here to celebrate our creator, Sunny’s, birthday!” Aaron exclaimed happily. “Sunny, will you come up here please?” The girl in the crowd with orange hair blushed and walked up to the stage. She was wearing a black dress to contrast her bright hair. “Thank you Aaron and thank you everyone for coming here today to celebrate my birthday! I really really appreciate you guys so much and I’m so proud of y’all.” Sunny said, her face lighting up like the sun. She wiped a tear of happiness from her cheek. Cheers rang from the crowd. “Sunny,! Sunny! Sunny! Sunny!” The crowd cheered.”Sunny! Sunn-”
“HEY!” A loud voice bellowed. The crowd immediately went silent and turned with disdainful expressions to Michael who had shouted. “I know how to make this evening even better!!! Me and Emma get married!!!” He cried. Emma scoffed. “Never gonna happen.” Andrew snarled, and held on to Emma’s hand tightly. “Boo! Boo! Boo!” The crowd cried at Michael. “Go away!” Daniel yelled. Michael’s face turned red in embarrassment. His mother pulled him down from the barrel he was standing on. “Son, you need to learn something…NEVER EVER…….stand on barrels. You could get hurt.” His father said. Michael rolled his eyes. “Right.”

JUST NATURE
Spawned in the highlands in Ragnarok on Xbox. Was gonna show my dad how to play. I, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SPAWNING ANIMATION, was killed. Just run. At least think it was these dudes. I spawned near and massacred all of the dodos, built a base was played it every now and then for a year and was level 83. Found a crap ton, and EXTINCTION GO BRRD them A L L. Made sure they were these guys. They were. Every game I start now as soon as I have a crossbow I send the overgrown geckos flying all the way past genesis part 91. And then every day I craft and repair then massacre more.
So i wanted to tame a megalania.
I threw a spear at it to get her attention and it fell of a cliff.I was in the Artifact of the Devourer cave and had grappling hooks so i got on my megalania and grappled it and got in a cage and knocked it out with a crossbow.Now im taming lvl 55 Female
A Mountain Tamer's Best Friend
I had a fairly high level Megalania, and at the time I knew nothing about the breeding process. At the time, I think she was Level 210. My friend was traveling with me, and I used my Megalania on a near-vertical surface on the volcano on The Island. He was riding a Baryonyx I lent him. We were attacked by a high-level Rex, and I made her grip the volcano's surface just above the Rex's biting range. My friend kept tabs on the surrounding area, while I kept baiting the Rex into my crossbow shots. Too bad I lost that Rex, but I was a rookie back then :P
