Once I found an egg and thought "oh an egg. Dunno what happen if I pick it up." I picked it up and I get attacked and I'm like "WHAT THE-" and a pachy was attacking me. I got knocked unconscious and died. I went to where I died with a dilo named Frill (R.I.P Frill) I found my last death and took all. And it started attacking again.i got knocked unconscious and died again it happened again without Frill. After dying. I learned my lesson. No taking Pachy eggs.

Sit back yougins and let me tell ya a story bout this fantastic beast.... A long, long time ago, I was on a quest to bring an artifact to one’ah them glowin pillars up there in the sky. I’d tried this quest twice, died to bugs and raptors. But this time I was determined, I traveled alongside the cliff and then to the plains where, finally after all this time, I reached that bugger. I clambered up that there brige but just as I was about’a place that artifact in there- A big ol nasty Titanoboa strides right on in and does me a whoozy. Knocked me right out. I thought I was done for. I saw my health decreasin slowly until I heard this strange stompin noise. What? What’s that? I can tell you children’s I was shakin like the sail on my boat. I woke up later and saw that dead snake. But next to it was a nice little patchy, unconscious. That there patchy saved my life! I tamed that sucker and brought it back home with me. I owe that Hero Patchy my life. Amen children. ~Papa Glitchy

The Obelisk

-Chapter 90-

Birds fluttered overhead. The Velonasaur’s spikes rattled as she stepped carefully through the brush. The dark orange Wyvern was just ahead, his back turned, looking out at the stars. His wings were folded around him, his tail peaceful, in contrast to its usual thumping.

He hadn’t smelled her yet. She took another step, wondering if she should call out. Or wait some more. ‘He’s not nearly as cautious as he should be,’ She thought to herself. ‘Someone could easily ambush him.’ She imagined claws ripping through the Wyverns throat.

‘Soon,’ She reminded herself. ‘Soon, when the time is right.’

The Wyverns head perked up. “Ripper, is that you?”

“Always is,” She answered, removing herself from the tangled forest.

“You’ve come early,” he said, without looking at her.

Ripper knew the Wyvern was much younger than her. His voice was still young, although his long horns suggested he was full grown. She remembered when they first met, when he was still a juvenile. “I came to tell you it worked. I found one.”

He turned to her, his expression bright. “Which one?”

“The last one,” she said. “Her name is Nyx. I found her and she bought it immediately. I recon she’s on her way now. She’ll be at the cave in at least a day.”

“That’s great,” Jethezzar said. “It looks like I can trust you, after all.”

“When have you not?” Ripper pretended to joke. She looked behind her to the forest. “If Nyx is on the move, we should get going soon, too.”

“You mean me.” Jethezzar said. She turned to stare at him. “Only I am going. If the others come looking for her, they would recognize you immediately. We can’t risk that. I hope you understand.”

Ripper stifled a grow. ‘I’ll figure something else out,’ She thought. “Of course.”

Jethezzar nodded. “I’ll probably take off tonight. Oh, and Ripper, I want to meet you halfway there, perhaps at mid-day tomorrow. There’s something I want to show you.”

Ripper narrowed her eyes, interest and suspicious sparking inside her. She knew she couldn’t ever fully trust the Wyvern. But it was a good opportunity for her plans, and she couldn’t waste the precious time she had left.

“And did you hear?” Jethezzar asked, a tiny hint of amusement in his voice.

“Hear what?”

“There’s word that a second Velonasaur is roaming through Lindbjord,” he said.

“…what?” Ripper spat.

“It might even be him,” Jethezzar went on. “Maybe you can finally get the rematch you’ve been wanting.”

“He wont beat me again,” Ripper snarled. “I’ll rip his eyes out the second I find him!”

Jethezzar smiled. “See you tomorrow, then.”

I had a pachy named torment. We went everywhere together. He became max lv and dominated rexes. We had a very strong connection. Then one day after beating some griffins a royal beat down we stopped by herbivore island on a raft. Then, as i try to tame a balisaurus mantas kill me and I’m at my base. My raft limit was reached and my flier recently died. I’ll find u bud.

Let me tell you a true story, so this one time I was in the swamp I can’t remember why I was doing, but I had this pet patchy named Mariana. and about five seconds after I tamed Mariana, a titanic boa showed up. And it killed me and when I died, I heard the sounds of a pachycephalosaurus fighting. then I knew that Mariana had died in a fight of vengeance. I was sad that day. But later that day, I found a new pachycephalosaurus within a couple hours. I tamed it. and of course, I never named it because I just got it. bye by the time you read this it’ll have a name. anyways. that’s all. One up.= RIP Mariana.

EY THERE YEE YOUNGUNS TODAY YEE GAWNA HEAR A STORY OF YEE LOYAL PACHY! So I was on ark mobile and I saw an ankylo and I thought Hey I can tame that! So I tried to knock it out, and it almost one shot-Ed me, I was at 0.2 health and thought I was gonna die. But then I hear an ankylo yellin, and I look up and the ankylo is runnin, away and I’m like What- and then I look at a tree facing that ankylo and I see an unconscious Pachy laying there, so I tamed it and named that little hero Headbump. So after a while, I finally figured out what had happened. So I was gettin, mauled by that ankylo, but Headbump attacked it and had it fleein, away. But he tried to charge at em, and rammed into a tree and went unconscious. So I made a base for him and me and that ankylo came back angry! He killed me and Headbump was pissed. He killed me and Headbump tried to kill that ankylo.

when I respawned I was lookin for him,and that ankylo was walking away and then I found him floating in the water…miss you buddy. 1like = 1 pray for Headbump 😢

Story about my most loved pachy: Jenga

So, when I was on my MOST LOVED sever, (I got banned from it for no reason so I started crying 😭😭😭AND NOW ITS GONNA BE A PRIVATE SEVER APPARENTLY) I was a noob on the sever. When I saw some pachys, (btw I only have 2 paras, 1 igounadon, dilo pack, dodo, and more. I think..) I tamed one of them. It was a low lvl though. (I think.) I named it jenga. Bc of the round shape head that apparently, is like a hard bone. I made her/he a saddle and started farming some resources. I saw that a stegosaurus was coming close to my base. (2 stegos.) when I came home, I decided I should kill the stegos before they attack my base. (I had spikes by my base that’s why.) I hit the stego with my fists and my high lvl igounodon and all my Dino’s started attacking it. Most of them died. And…so did jenga.

Saw one of these guys near the beach and decided it would be my first tame. I tamed it right after I finished making a wood house and found... these guys’ carry weight and stamina are terrible. Their health too. Riding one I was actually slower than my unit graded base player speed running on the ground. Pacu the pachy saved me from a few troodons, and lived to tell the tale, but I suggest DEFINITELY get a different first tame. Still pretty good for later in the game, but over all... not the best.
