Stories Tips
What are some stories about the raptor? Memorable raptor stories, wild encounters, and fan fiction.
So... My Argy, Argentum, basically yeeted an Alpha Raptor out of exsistence. So we were doing "Pro hunt: No Bola Better Run" and looking for Carnos, and we saw an Alpha Raptor. One of these had basically made me restart my game when I was a noob. The Alpha Raptor was just bullying everything around it, and I thought: " I heard Alpha's drop good loot." So, I decided, Argentum could probably kill it. She had 1634 HP, and the Alpha Raptor down there was Lvl 7, and had 5643 HP. So Argentum just swooped down and started to nail it with her talons. We killed an Otter during the process by accident, sorry Otter God. At one point Argentum had lost a seventh of her health, so we had to kill a dilo and get the HP regen buff. I remember the Alpha raptor being at 1000 HP, and I had said: "Hey Alpha Raptor, I brought reinforcements. The spirits of my tames you killed when I was a noob!" Eventully, the Alpha Raptor was at 79 HP, and I killed it. We got like 31 Prime Meat, a crossbow, a ramshakle hide hat and a ramshackle metal pick, a metal pick, and a little more. We also got a rex bone helmet skin, but I already had one on my journeyman hide hat, and one on my Meso. I still kept it though, as a trophy. Because i'm on mobile, and I don't think Alpha's drop trophies in mobile. One like= One "Live long and prosper" for Argentum!

Chapter twenty six: Back from the hanging tree.
Nora, Cyra and Sylvia rushed back and forth tending to wounded soldiers. Sylvia was currently bandaging a soldier’s leg. Nora had already healed it but it was still bleeding slightly. “There you go.” You’re all fixed up.” Sylvia said. The soldier stood up, grinning. “Thanks lass.” He said and limped back off to the battlefield. The Krakos was roaring and smashing through soldiers like they were toys.
“I think we’re all caught up on injured soldiers.” Cyra said, she and Nora walked up. Sylvia nodded. “I agree. Where’s Emma?” Nora asked. “Right there.” Cyra said, pointing toward a chair in between beds for the injured. Emma was sitting there with her hand clasped together and her eyes were closed. Cyra, Nora, and Sylvia walked over to her. “Are you okay?” Nora asked. Emma’s medallion was glowing brightly. Emma was breaking slowly and steadily. “Emma?” Sylvia asked.
Emma’s eyes’ suddenly opened, and her medallion glowed even brighter. “He is here.” She said. “Who?” Cyra questioned. “Nora!” A cold voice suddenly called. They whirled around to see a shadowy figure dressed in a dark hood and cloak, a sword hanging in his hand. Two guards that were guarding the people who were tending to the injured, leaped into action, their swords drawn. But they were stopped quickly. From the shadows, dark figures came and pummeled the guards.
“You know what I want!” The shadowy figure growled. Nora shook her head. “I cannot give it to you.” She said. “You know what I need!” He shouted. Nora shook her head again. “I can’t-“ She said. “Who is that?” Sylvia asked. “Get behind me.” Nora replied. As fast a flash of lightning, Cyra pushed Sylvia and Emma back. “I can’t give it to you.” Cyra said. The shadowy figure snorted. “YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT!!” He bellowed. Nora’s eyes darkened dangerously. “I want my wife back!” The shadowy figure cried , his hood falling down to reveal…

Sad story, alpha queen died protecting me from three karpos and a sarco. I remember her finishing the last dino, then the last Dino finishing her. I literally screamed and remembered crying, she was such a queen. I even made a poem about her! (Its my version of tiger tiger)
Alpha alpha, chomping strong
Who proves all karpos long dead wrong
Shes of power, shes of grace
And she latches onto the sarcos face.
1 like = 1 prayer for my queen. One day she will take back the throne!

I tamed two of these guys, named one August and the other soldier. I take them everywhere with me, I got poisoned and knocked out, I didn't even know what happened all's I know is that whatever was coming after me didn't live for much longer. I don't think I've ever felt so safe
I was chilling in my hidden lake base around level 37. I had just moved from herb island and only had my level 11 raptor. I was setting up behemoth gates in the walkways into the area. Suddenly I was attacked by a level 20 carno. My raptor was with me and I watched in horror as my raptor charged it with about 224 health. I had become attached to this raptor and didn’t want it to die so I hopped onto my raptor. I tried to run but my injured raptor was too slow. At this moment a wild raptor pounced on me and knocked me off my raptor. My raptor went back to fighting the carno while I freed myself from the wild raptor. Once the wild raptor was dead I spun to help my raptor. Just to see the carno lying dead on the ground. My jaw dropped as I checked my raptor and saw it’s health was 1! 1! That raptor has stayed with me for my whole journey and I have used it to breed an army of carno killer babies.

When Sodden arrived back at Nudon, everyone was standing at the castle, waiting for him. Sodden put his pteranodon in a cryopod then turned to the others. “Hey guys. I was just doing a little bit of speed leveling. I’m Level 74 now.” Sodden said. Red walked up to him. “Well, I think we’ve had enough craziness for one day. I’m gonna get some guys out to get us some Rexes if we need them. Why don’t we just settle down for the day?” Red asked. Sodden nodded, then he, Rod, and Serenity walked into the castle.
The next day…
Sodden walked out of the castle on the next day, and went to the breeding barn. He was holding some meat and crops. When he got to the barn entrance, Red stood in the door. “Hey. Good morning. So last night, one of our tamers found a 140 Rex. They had to get the supplies from the base, the taming food, and spent over an hour taming it up. It was a female, so we started breeding it with our creatures. We’re also looking for Theris. Oh, is that for the creatures?” Red said. “Yeah.” Sodden said. He walked into the barn and put the meat in the trough to the left, labeled Carnivores. Then the crops in the trough to the right pen, labeled Herbivores. In the Carnivore pen, there were 13 Rexes set up, and 20 more that were far back and not fully grown. Then in the Herbivore pen, there was a group of 20 Theris, with 10 younger ones in the back. “As soon as the creatures finish growing, we’ll breed them one last time for extra creatures. Then we’re going to get the tributes. You’re doing Alpha difficulty. You’re gonna need good saddles.” Red said. Sodden walked to him after looking around. “Maybe you can help us with metal runs. We have so many Argies and so many helpers. That’s how we get so many supplies so quickly. We have a very good Rex saddle, a 110 armor, but it costs 2000 metal each and 7000 hide each. All of our grown Gigas are out collecting hide. We’re about to send out the Argies. Wanna join them?” Red asked. “Sure. I’d like to do some stuff. I also gotta be doing some speed leveling.” Sodden said. “Yeah. To do Alpha, you have to be Level 100 for the Dragon fight. You and Rod are the only two guys that aren’t Level 100 in this tribe. You two can’t enter if you’re not Level 100. I think after the metal runs, you can do some speed leveling with me and Rod.” Red said. “Okay.” Sodden said. Red walked out and Sodden followed him. They walked to an area near the left wall of the base and there were a group of 30 Argies, each with one person on it. Each one except for one, which was in the lower corner of the group. Red walked to the Argy. “That Argy is reserved for you. I was hoping you’d join us. Our usual routine is that we spread 5 Argies across all the places that’re rich with metal. The Redwoods hill, Far’s Peak, the base of Whitesky, the volcano, the Giga mountain, and the northeastern Arctic snow mountain.” Red said. “Okay. So… which group will I be with?” Sodden asked. “You’re going to the Northeastern Arctic Mountain. Just follow the group going there. We would start on the south of the mountain, then go around and down the mountain, then the tip, then done. With the exception of Whitesky, which is where we’d just do a ring around the base of the mountain. The Ankys are set up in the drop off barn.” Red said as he pointed to the building to the right of the Argies. “Two Argies go in at a time. It doesn’t matter which Anky you get. All have similar stats.” Red said. Then he ran to the front of the Argy pack, and whistled for everyone to listen. Sodden got on his Argy, and Red said, “Okay, guys. Sodden’s joining us today for the sixth day of the metal grind. Remember the path. And avoid Nameless, please. I don’t want the same thing that happened to Retro to happen to the Argies. They’re not as easily replaceable as the Ankys.” Red said. Everyone murmured in agreement. Red whistled then pointed to the sky, and yelled, “Onwards!” Then the Argies’ wings started flapping and their feet took off, then the Argies flew up. They then flew down, and each one grabbed an Anky out of the barn, went back up, then split up in groups of 5, each going to one metal location. Sodden followed the group flying to the Northeastern Arctic Mountain.
After a while, the group arrived to the mountain. The group started at the bottom of the mountain, a little south of the tip, then started flying to metal nodes. The Ankys started bashing their tail against the rocks, and metal came flowing into their inventories. They circled the mountain, collecting every metal node they saw, and some Argies even had some weight left to start going to the top of the mountain. After 10 minutes, every Argy in the group had Ankys full of metal and couldn’t get any more without getting encumbered. They decided to fly back to base.
On Far’s Peak, while the group there was collecting metal, inside C Tribe’s base, in the meeting room next to the front entrance, Terad sat in a chair, around a table, where the rest of the tribe leaders sat. “Okay. So we have a Quetzal. We have a platform saddle. But what we don’t have is metal. I don’t know what Nudon is up to, but they definitely want a expensive engram because they’re stealing all the metal on the Ark!!” Terad yelled. “Well… we could… scout the smaller nodes?” Someone suggested. Terad stormed over to them and grabbed them by the collar of their shirt. “Listen up. Small nodes across the island will take hours on hours! We don’t have that kind of time. Nameless is going for a Titan in 6 days!! We need to get metal now. We need the cannon, and all the cannon balls. Titanosauruses lose torpor very fast. We gotta be consistent. We cannot allow any setbacks. And I… I will not allow Nameless to get that Titan!” Terad yelled. “You’re literally asking for a battle to the death!” Someone yelled. Terad roared in anger and banged the table with his fist. “I don’t care. We don’t have time to breed and raise a whole Giga. That takes over a week to do. Our army will have to do. Now why are you still here!? Get the Argies and go get all the metal!! Pretend Nudon isn’t here.” Terad growled. Everyone nodded then ran out of the entrance to get out their Argies and Ankies. He was about to storm upstairs when someone tapped him on the arm. Terad looked back to see one of the tribe leaders standing there. “Uh… Terad. You remember who’s with Nudon?” He said. “Oh… I do. He’s still on with his little mission to kill all creatures. Well…” Terad said, then he froze. No response. Then after seconds of silence, Terad started growling. “I checked the cameras yesterday. I saw him in the Strong cave. He is planning to ascend. And he’s going to try and kill the Titan. Well? Get the metal!” Terad yelled. The person nodded then ran out of the entrance. “Sodden is up to something. I’d better find it out. Why he would ascend off this place remains a mystery, but I must know.” Terad growled deeply.
That afternoon, the Argies returned to Nudon and dropped their Ankies off in the drop off barn. Sodden dropped off his Anky and hopped off his Argy. Then he walked to Red, who stood outside of the castle. “You did good today. We need to talk.” Red said. “Okay.” Sodden said. The two walked into the castle and saw Denine and a group of tribemates, and Rod and Serenity, sitting at the large table. Sodden sat on one of the empty chairs near Serenity and Rod and Red sat next to Sodden. “So you really want to do this mission. And you also want to ascend. So… we’re nearing T creatures. One of those creatures is the Titanosaur. We suspected Nameless could be going for the Titan too. If you want to kill it, we gotta send in our Gigas. We don’t have a plan just yet, but we’re thinking about it. However, this is not going to be easy. Not dying to the Titan and not dying to Nameless when you’re facing them alone is one thing. Not dying to both when you’re fighting both at the same time… that’s almost impossible to do. Nameless has some really powerful Gigas. Rod, you have a Titan, right?” Red said. “Yeah. I can bring him over to help.” Rod said. “Good. Here’s the problem. Nameless and us won’t be the only ones there for the Titan. Serenity told me that her tribe is going for that same Titan. That means we’re facing two very deadly tribes at once. Sodden will be the one to kill it, but it will definitely destroy Terad’s trust in him. Serenity leaving with him would make it worse. So once you return to the Island, we need to protect you and make sure we get to Dead Earth/Extinction safely. This will not be easy. Sodden has creatures to kill and resources to collect, and he still needs 26 more levels before he can fight the Alpha Dragon, or as I like to call him, Doug. Don’t know why. If Sodden, me, or Rod dies, ascension will be delayed by quite a bit and we will run out of precious time. We can’t have that. We’re doing Tribute grinding now. Denine, tell them what we plan to do.” Red said. “Well, while we don’t have a clear plan yet for the Titan, we do have some things we’ll do that day. Because most of the tribe will be out grinding the last bits of supplies and getting the Rexes and Theris organized, and some parts going to fight a Titan and two of the most dangerous tribes in the Arks, it will leave me vulnerable with only some survivors left here.” Denine said. “Okay, so what?” Sodden asked. “There’s a plan we have. We can hide her in the vault, but knowing Nameless, they’d probably tear the base apart finding it. So what we can do is hide her in this room, and the survivors guarding the base that day can use their creatures to stall Nameless if they come, which they probably will.” Red said. “That’s good.” Rod said. “Okay, we also gotta consider Rod’s tribe. Your friends will be protecting it, right?” Sodden asked. Rod nodded. “Okay. Just leave them and you’re going to come with us for the other Arks.” Sodden said. “Sounds good. Let’s get back on the grind.” Serenity said. Everyone nodded, and Denine walked upstairs. Everyone else walked out of the castle except two people, who followed Denine upstairs.
The next day…
Sodden rode his pteranodon through the swamp, towards a group of Sarcos. In the southeastern wetlands, Sodden was hunting creatures for tributes. He shot down the Sarcos, and collected their skin. He kept scouting the swamp for Sarcos to kill. Red was out collecting tributes for all the boss fights, and so was Serenity and some other dudes in the tribe of Nudon. Sodden got to the southeastern jungle to hunt some Brontos, and find some explorer notes. He managed to reach Level 77 by the end of yesterday, but only 5 days remained before the big day, so he had to be fast. He flew towards herbivore island, then hopped off his pteranodon on the cliff of the island, then shot down some Brontos below the cliffs. He then got on the pteranodon and went down to the Bronto corpses, then took out the sauropod vertebraes from their inventories. He then got back on his pteranodon again and took off towards the wetlands for leveling.
After a few hours, he had collected a lot of supplies. He got 10 pieces of sauropod vertebraes and got to Level 82. He was in the footpaw, scouting out Theris. When he went into the river that split the footpaw’s small mountain from the rest of the island, he shot down some salmon. Then when a raptor ambushed his pteranodon, Sodden shot down the raptors and got back on his pteranodon. He went to the wetlands, but when he approached the redwoods for the mountain, something launched an acid ball at the pteranodon. It dodged it then flew down to the ground. Sodden saw a rhyniognatha coming at them. It launched another acid ball, and it hit the pteranodon. Sodden started shooting it down, then it screeched and picked him up. Sodden shouted as he kept shooting it and then prepared to take out a parachute. The rhyniogntha was biting through his armor, ripping it up and depleting his health. Sodden growled and took out a sword, then stabbed it in the bug’s head. The bug screeched in pain as it started breathing slowly. It flew lower, its health depleting and getting more bloodied. Sodden shot it down with his shotgun until the bug fell to the ground and Sodden started falling too. He took out the parachute and put it on, then he floated down towards his pteranodon. His armor was cracked and his health was at 60%. He got to his pteranodon and took off for the Redwoods mountain. When he got there, there was a pack of Rexes running down the slope of the mountain, chasing some Galliminuses. Sodden went to the pack and cryopoded his pteranodon, then the Rexes turned and roared, setting their sights on him. Sodden led them to the river nearby, across the ruins’ bridge, and the Rexes jumped for him and fell in between the cliffs next to the waterfall. Sodden shot the Rexes down, then collected their arms. He had to get more tributes.
Day after day, Nudon had been grinding for tributes, collecting levels, and destroying creatures. C Tribe had too been collecting metal for their Titan plan and so had Nameless. Nameless had helped Cordor get way better levels. He only got to Level 29 before the day of the Snow Cave thing, and almost every level was in fortitude. One point only in Health. Cordor needed way better, so he set out to collect levels. The only reason he could do the Strong cave was because he had really good fur armor blueprints and a good amount of supplies. All seemed calm… then came the final day.
28 hours before the Titanosaur Showdown…
It was around 6 in the morning. The sun was just beginning to rise. The Island was quiet. Almost as if it was the calm before the storm. There was one day left. Red had gotten up that time to assemble his tribemates early in the morning, so that they could think of a plan. “Come on. We gotta start the final preparations early!” Red yelled. Sodden fell out of his bed trying to get up. He rubbed his eyes then slowly walked down to the main room, as did everyone else. Red sat at the end of the table. Sodden and the others went down to sit, tired. “Okay. Sorry for waking you up so early. We got a big day tomorrow. We not only have Sodden’s ascension, but also the Titanosaur battle. Our mutated Giga is grown at last. Our Giga army is ready. Now… we have almost all the tributes ready. We still need one more Megalania toxin, and a few of the Alpha creature trophies. The Tusoteuthisis, the Mosa, and the Rex. Then we’ll have everything.” Red said. “So you got us up to continue the search for them?” Rod moaned. “Yes. We don’t have time tomorrow for collecting, so we need to do it now. It may take a while, so I got you up early, so we can do this longer.” Red said. “Okay.” Sodden said. “If you really want to…” Serenity said. The group walked out of the base and prepared the fliers. “Okay. Sodden, you’re going with Rod and Serenity to find an Alpha Rex. The others will go underwater to locate the Alpha Mosa and Alpha Tuso.” Red said as he led Sodden out of the base. Sodden nodded then walked to the drop off barn, then threw out his pteranodon. Sodden got on it, Serenity and Rod threw out their Argies and got on them, and they took off. “We may need to look all day.” Red said.

So I like really like raptors. I got two breeding pairs (as well as a breeding pair of iquanadons) and bred them for 30 minutes straight, over and over again. Well now I have 30+ raptors roaming around my base (and 8 iguanadons) trust me nothing is getting to me. So if you have multiple raptors of opposite gender, breed them. :)
Once I first tamed my first Raptor(male/Green/Lime) I named him Max. I wanted to keep Max for guarding the other pets on my base because the spiky walls remove themselfs once they are near the sand or ocean, one day I decided to do that stupid quest of the green alien device thing, I wasent ready because i went there that took me 10 minutes to find that stupid cave and then I saw the alien device was so close getting it untill 3 spiders and 3 snakes ganged up on me untill I died. I had my MasterCrafted bow on 231/231 resistance and 105 damage. Then I had to respawn the nearest place I did only to find out it was pitch black at night, then I was trying my best to find the Cave but somehow I accidently went inside of a hole without nothing but a giant rock blocking the exit to do my quest. I had to do many ways such as killing myself with my poo and waiting my stamina and dying, then I was serious at that moment that I created my armor, shield and my metal sword with 50 iron because it makes no sense. But this time I decided to take Max with me, we did the same thing but this time seeing those annoying brats again in a diffrient stage. Then I ran into them before they spotted us before the 6 started to do the same thing but I heard Max was dealing with them all by himself because I made the snakes be on low HP, once I woke up from those annoying snakes and spiders I found out Max was perfectly fine and he saved my life! But evry story got a point to come an end in a bad or sad way. Then me and Max went deeper into the cave to see a big river thing with weird liquid in it and across the river was the alien device again, I then walked to see that there were scorpions so I shot them with my lame 50 dog bow untill I pulled my sword and swing at the 3 of them just to get back stabbed by 4 spiders and I killed them all, a few minutes later we went deeper only to see a single scorpion charge at me and then I killed it untill 5 and 10 spider showed up out of no where or under ground and they all started to bite me and make me pass out again only to hear Max's attacks and screams untill his voice was slowly fading away. I was so worried that my first raptor would die but then out of no where the quest was over. I did it but at what cost, lasted my items 2 times, and Max. I'm not sure if he died or not because we went that deep to reach the alien device. The lesson about Raptors is: they can't carry you but will save your life out of there even if they sacrificed their life's for your quest. R.I.P Max(or not?) The Green Male first tamed Raptor in my game play.
I once had a raptor named Hunter. While I was taming him, a bunch of troodons attacked me. Luckily, I had a carbonymus (don’t remember his name) but the troodons were too much for him to handle alone. Then, Hunter tamed and came to the rescue! I was almost dead when I woke up, which was when it was morning, and came face to face with Hunter! I didn’t get a message saying it was tamed, so I thought it was still wild! I accepted my death, but it never came. Then I saw the message in green: Raptor. following: Austin. Then I went WHAAAAAAA!?!? Then I renamed it to Hunter. I went back to base, and grabbed a couple more Dinos, and went back. Then, I saw a mysterious raptor with red mist coming out of it… it saw me, and killed me, and all of my tames, INCLUDING MY NEW HUNTER!!!! Rip. Hunter, the best raptor ever. Then, much later, I swapped over to the switch. I tamed a raptor named Hunter, and he died by an alpha raptor AGAIN! Soooooo anoooyyyyyiiiiing!
- The paw print path-
Chapter four.
Crimson awoke to feel paws shaking him. “Go away Rosie.” Crimson groaned. But it wasn’t Rosie. “Wake up son.” Fang said. “Wake up quickly.” Crimson rolled over and faced his father. “What is it?” He saw that Amy and Rosie where up but it was obviously still night. “Wha- he began but then he heard it. Growls and sniffs coming from further in the cave. “You need to take your sister and go.” Amy said hurriedly. “Who’s here.” Crimson asked. “Don’t y’all worry about that. Fang said. “Take the back exit.” Amy said. “We’ll catch up.” “Head due east till you come to the tallest winter mountain.” “There you will find some of our distant tribe.” “Stay there we’ll come.” Amy said. “But…” began Crimson. Through the doorway of the sleeping room several huge wolves( fenrirs). “Go!” Growled Fang before launching himself unto one of the fenrirs. Without any more hesitation Crimson grabbed Rosie by the scruff off her neck and they raced through the back tunnels. Behind them they could hear whining and yelping coming from the cave. Finally they got out of the cave. They ran through the meadow into the forest heading east…
The next chapter will be in the dire bear.

One day I tamed my first raptor, blue. He was the greatest thing in the world. I crafted him a saddle and we rode around the island together. One day when I got off to pick up a dodo egg, I lost him no matter where I looked I couldn’t find him, but then I got this,”your raptor blue (lvl76) was killed by a cnidiara (lvl98)” that was the saddest message in my history. And there he was floating in the ocean, being eaten.I’m crying writing this. Now I have my raptors and we go visit his grave every day. May he rest in peace for eternity in heaven.
I kid you not when I'm gonna say, I got ticked off at the AMOUNT of these things can form a pack and gang up on you out of nowhere.
For context, I play on the PS5. I got it when it was in PS+ catalog for May this year, and I thought it would be a good idea to start in the center, on the north island.
The first time these things ganged up on me and tore me to shreds, I bout lost my cool, but as a currently seasoned rookie, back then, I knew NOTHING! Those Raptors puppy guarded my loot, and anytime I got REMOTELY CLOSE to recovering it, I DIED!
The biggest pack to pull up and maul me to death as I ran for my life was at least five to seven of them!! Eventually I got over my fear of them, started a brand new save for The Island, and tamed my first two raptors, getting lucky to have a breeding pair. Rest in peace, Zeus and Hera. My best raptors to ever be the first to tame.
