I remember back when I first started playing ark I tamed a Sarco and named her Serena. She was a beautiful creature, we went on many adventures scouring the oceans and the island. She was my right hand Dino, then one day fateful day we swam up to herbivore island and in the shore cove I saw a basilisauras surrounded by a prominent gang of manta. Me in my curiosity as well Ignorance hopped off the back of Serena and got a closer look, only to be instantly targeted and swarmed by a bunch of short tempered manta. After the initial manta strike Serena quickly sprung into action swimming literal laps around the manta, but things got overwhelming and I don’t know if this was an accident or not but Serena swam past me and pushed me closer to the shore, and to my surprise she killed all manta… all but one, deciding that we’ve seen enough action for the day I whistled her to follow me, but the one manta… I made my way to shore and just as Serena breached the waters surface to follow me the one manta that survived got one final hit in and I watched in horror as my Serena collapsed to her death and released her final bellow.😔 Evrytime I see a sarco I’m reminded of Serena and her sacrifice. Swim fast girl into the infinite horizon

Someone once said: Once upon a time, my Sarco and I were hunting some Megalodons for fish meat, when a pack of Cnidaria stung the both of us, I tried to swim to the shore but it's too late. Mantas and Megs attacked me and my Sarco. My Sarco tried to fight back, biting his opponents. I swam back to the shore, and... My Sarco never came back. His dead corpse was a feast for Mantas and Megalodons. I hold my fists, my mind thirst for revenge. Rifle in hand, I swam back, shooting every Megalodon and Mantas I see. It was a bloodbath, bodies of Megalodon and Mantas floating in the ocean. I avenged his death… My Sarco…

Rain pours down to the land. He left his beloved wife and son.

Good vote= One Sarco lives. That! Well THIS ALSO HAPPEND TO MY SARCO only it was only Cnidarias something similar happend to my raptor blue, I forgot to sign it but it’s in the story section of raptor page if you want to go check it out :) but yes Good vote = one Sarco or raptor lives

Ultimus Chapter 5: Awake, part two

Andrew quickly attempted to scramble across his bed and kicked up a bunch of dust making him cough profusely. Dust flew into his eyes and caused him to stop in his tracks. He tried waiting for the dust to settle, but with each cough he stirred up even more dust. He quickly retreated out of the room, as he looked back he saw the room was filled with a cloud of dust.

Andrew decided to open several windows and decided to figure out why the power wasn’t working until the dust settled. He went outside and started walking around the house. He quickly noticed the generator half buried in dirt by the house and checked it. It was powered off with over half a tank of gas remaining. After a little over an hour of trying to figure out how it worked he got it started up running.

Andrew went around the house and went inside. He checked the lights and saw immediately the lights turned on. He pumped his fists in the air and cheered in exuberance.

He went down the hallway and looked into his room. All the dust had settled. He looked through his window and saw his dog was still watching the dinosaur intensely.

Andrew cautiously walked into his room and walked around the bed over to his nightstand. He picked up the clock but couldn’t read it through all the dust. He wiped off the dust but still couldn’t see anything. Looked at the back and saw that the element slot was empty.

“Of course they lied about how long the clock can run on.” He said to himself, he opened the first drawer on the nightstand and saw some clothes. He quickly started pulling out all the clothes and found what he was looking for, a single piece of element. If he couldn’t get an exact date, he could see at least an estimation for how long he’s been asleep. The clock could hold the last date it recorded before it died so it was simple enough.

He put the strange material in the back of the machine and looked at the date it last gave. Andrew looked at date and he was shocked and confused.

‘it couldn’t be right!! Could it?’

The date on the clock was August 12th, 3104. He’d been alsleep for over 700 years. Maybe even longer…

Ultimus Chapter 5: Awake part one

In the shed, the sleeping pod started beeping and the doors opened. Andrew dropped out of the pod and laid on the ground gasping for air. Everything hurt, his head, his eyes, his legs, his stomach, his chest, everything. He tried to pull himself up to the ground, but he collapsed on the ground again. He heard his dog yawn, he heard him get up and walk over to his face. Andrew kept his eyes closed because of the pain but he felt the cold nose of his dog touch his nose. He felt him lick his cheek and his inside ear. This shot Andrew up feeling a cold, wet dog tongue in his ear. Though he instantly regretted it, puking bile and whatever he had eaten before going to sleep.

After a few minutes of being in the worst pain Andrew ever felt and letting it slowly subside. He opened his eyes and looked around. He didn’t see anyone, just dust. A lot of dust. He stood up and looked around. Everything seemed to be the same that it was before he got in, a couple more storage containers and way too much dust. But nothing out of the sort. He went and looked at the sleeping pod, it seemed to have shut down just before letting him and his dog out of it. He decided to go look for his mom and dad and see where they were at. He ran over to the door and opened it. Andrew looked at the outside world confused. Everything seemed normal. He was still in a forest, the sun was setting or rising so it must’ve dawn or dusk, his house was there though it looked run down a little bit.

‘So why was there a dinosaur outside the shed?!?’ He screamed in his head, there standing in front of him was a dinosaur, its head held a weird crest with spike coming off of it and a strange horn off the nose. Andrew had never seen anything like it. He knew the basic dinosaurs like Raptors, Rexes and Trikes of course. But he had never seen anything like this. It looked sort of like a trike but it didn’t have the horn over the eyebrows. But he couldn’t get distracted on how this was here. He walked past it and called his dog. The dog came to the shed door and looked outside. It saw the creature and froze. Andrew called him again and this time the dog laid down and watched the creature. Andrew gave up calling him and left the dog there. He went around the house and walked to the front door and opened it.

“Hello! Mom? Dad? Where are you?” Andrew called out. He didn’t see anyone, everything looked in place though. He continued walking through the house going through the rooms and searching for his parents. Though he didn’t find anything. He wondered if he woke up too early? None of the lights or anything that needed power wasn’t working. He went into his room and looked around, nothing had been touched since he went into the pod. He saw his Element Corp. Digital Clock sitting on his nightstand. And something immediately popped into his head.

‘The Clocks lifespan on one piece of element is guaranteed 750 years. I can just see what year it is right now!!!’

I had a sarco named Snoop catt and he was my best friend. If I was out grinding, Snoop Catt was right beside me, if I was killing alphas, Snoop Catt was there. One day I was moving Snoop to a new house and we were ambushed by about 12 Titanoboas. Snoop Catt fought to his last breath and saved me and my Pegomaxtic. You will never be forgotten Snoop!❤️

My copper colored sarco named Copperhead(like the bullet) was tamed within a couple minutes, he swam out of the swamp bloody and almost dead. I saved his life and he hasn't left my side since. Copperhead was a level 130 when I tamed him, and one day he fell in love with a wild level 60 female. So I tamed her and named her Marina. They were happy, they had a baby boy and that's all they needed. Until one day, spinos attacked, Marina lunged at them fighting with all the force in her body, I had to get Copperhead and his sin out of there, it was gruesome. Their son had to watch his mother sacrifice herself for her husband, son, and other dino friends. I found Copperhead a new GF, a level 120, but things aren't the same. I imprinted on the baby sarco, he grew up to be stronger than his father. I swam him to the old base where Marina was killed, and the 2 spinos were still there, we killed them both with no regrets and all the rage. I named him HollowPoint(like the bullet). Hollowpoint still crys at night, but he avenged his mothers death, and Copperhead has finally moved on.

R.I.P Marina,

1 like= 1 comforting hug for hollowpoint.

I found a sarco while flying my pelagornis. I just so happened to found it and I shot a few tranq arrows. After I tamed it I named it crocy. I was actually trying to find a raptor but instead got a cool crocodile.
