More Tropeognathus Stories Tips
Imagine this:
A Fully kitted space whale loaded half and half with element and ambergris surrounded by saddled tropeognathuses who are running escort for the space whale, teleport into sight when suddenly enemy tropeognathuses show up firing flak rounds at the space whale the dogfight that ensues will be awesome and terrifying. Any beach Bob will be drawn like a moth to a flame to watch the battle overhead as tropeognathus rain from the sky as the escort party finishes the pirates off and proceeds to target the enemy base dropping the bombs and teleporting away just before the charges detonate. The beach Bob looks in awe before turning to go inside for a dinner of berries and meat only to realize his thatch hut was obliterated in the bombing of the neighboring bobs hut.
All that to say tropeognathus would be useful as bomber escort birds
Listen up kids! Ssssstory time!
So I, together with my girl friends, made a smol griefer tribe on crystal isles map on a serv. Me, Mack Sharky, Hamster Man, and Indoraptor, a bunch of others made the ultimate dream team. We went around grieifng the alphas and arse tribes doin justice, giving bobs stuff etc. It was all fine until it all went downhill.
I was soarin in the skies with my friends and flyers, when all of a sudden, the alpha came in on the new trophy uhhhhh whatever it is, and yeeted the whole team. We watched as we were wiped to the ground. We did not cry. Not a single tear shed. We watched our final sunrise on the server. Our final sunrise, before we all quit and played other games.
Even then, it's been two years since I played ark, it's been a good run. I will always remember the day when the team met and the day when we parted ways. Whenever I think back of this very memory, I would smile.
We few.
We happy few.

“The humming is getting louder and more vibrations are coming from it,” Neddy noted as he, Samuel, and the dodo bird walked through the tall grass. Samuel brushed the grass aside with his hands as the two ventured deep into the plateau’s hill. There were large oak trees that spanned across the plain and large rocks too. Samuel noticed strange dinosaurs that stood on their hind legs and had crests on their heads, like the flying ones.
“Parasaurolophus,” Neddy said in awe, “They use the crests on their head to communicate with others.”
Just then, one of the Parasaurs let out a honk of fear. A strange ringing vibrated in Samuel and Neddy’s ears. They both let out shocked cries of pain as they covered their ears to stop the noise.
“What the- What’s going on?” Samuel asked.
“The Parasaurolophus is scared right now,” Neddy explained.
“But by what?”
Samuel’s question was answered, as the pattering of paws on dirt softly whispered in his ears. Something shrieked across the field, as a strange beast with a dog-shaped jaw and huge talons jumped on the Parasaur! The Parasaur fell to the ground as the strange beast began to dig its teeth into its flesh, causing guts and flesh to spill out onto the grass. Samuel could only look on in horror as the Parasaur succumbed to the attack.
“Utahraptor…” Neddy whispered, “The largest dromaeosaurid, so large and so smart they could be deemed as one of the most dangerous predators.”
The raptor tore a chunk of meat off, a look of triumph on its face as it finally caught its prey.
“And they say they could be pack hunters.”
Neddy’s yapping seems to have attracted the attention of the raptor. It turned its head, and upon noticing the two of them it realized an easy meal could be put on its plate if it just went after the two of them.
“Run!” Samuel shouted as he picked up his dodo bird friend.
The two of them dashed for a nearby boulder. Samuel could hear the pounding footsteps of the raptor approaching him closely, and Neddy shouted with all of his breath,
“Utahraptors can run at speeds of up 25 and 30 miles per hour! We need to get to that rock now!” Neddy screamed. Samuel shot his head back for a quick moment, the raptor was gaining on them. Samuel took his rock and hurled it at the utahraptor.
Boof!
The raptor let out a shriek of pain, pausing for a break as it shook its head in pain. With the distraction set in place, the two of them bolted for the boulder. Upon reaching their intended destination, they quickly climbed atop. Samuel looked behind him to see the raptor run up to the rock. The raptor stared at the two for a bit, then jumped up, clawing at the rock as it did so. Neddy let out a shrill scream as it did. Each time the raptor jumped it got closer and closer to reaching the two. They were sitting ducks.
“Oh no what are we gonna do bro?!” Neddy asked fearfully.
Samuel opened his mouth to answer when he felt the hairs on his arms stand up on end. The wind blew his hair to the side just a bit, and it was then a primitive spear soared through the air and struck the raptor in the leg. It let out a cry of pain as it fell off the rock mid-attempt, landing on its other leg wrong. A few arrows with sharp stone tips flew in the air, hitting the raptor, although some hit the ground nearby. The raptor let out a shrill cry as it lay its head on the ground, defeated.
“What the? Who did that?” Neddy asked.
“That was a good shot, Aurora,” a girl said.
“Thanks Ruby, although we couldn’t have made these weapons without you. We have to work on your aim though.”
Two girls emerged from the tall grass, and Samuel studied the two of them intently. They both wore strange makeshift clothing that looked rough and was covered in dirt and grime. One of them had short black hair with streaks of red that was tied in a ponytail. She also wore glasses and she wielded a wooden bow in her hands, a pouch made of animal hide and filled with stone arrows was slung over her shoulder. The other was very very recognizable. Aurora Romero, the valedictorian of Terran High. She had a white piece of her graduation robe banded over her forehead to keep her hair out of her face, and sweat poured down her face. She carried two extra spears that were strapped to her back. Samuel’s eyes darted to both of their wrists. Just like Neddy, they too had the strange implants.
“Who are you guys?” Neddy asked dumbfounded, “Well I know who you are Aurora. I didn’t expect to meet you so soon.”
“I’m Aurora, as you know,” the former valedictorian declared, “And this here is my friend Ruby. The two of us found each other when we both woke up.”
“I’m Samuel,” Samuel introduced himself.
“Neddy,” Neddy blurted, “And, how’d you make those weapons?”
“We’ll explain it all, but we should probably get out of here,” Ruby suggested, “That raptor could get up any moment.”
Everyone agreed with Ruby. So the newly bound quintet quickly took their leave. Aurora led the way, and as they traveled quickly through the tall grass and the plains, she constantly jolted her head up at the skies, as if she was charting something.
Samuel looked behind him one last time, and he could see a pack of Utahraptors meeting together over their fallen comrade. Samuel noticed that one of them was bigger than the others… and a red aura seemed to be dissipating from it.
“Brrrrr,” Samuel thought as he turned around.

Tales of Pandora
Origins of Salizar: chapter 11 ~four deaths~
(New phone, don’t worry if it acts like it’s not me posting this.)
Primalis was shocked at the sudden rush from Salizar, so shocked he fumbled the crossbow, by the time he was ready to shoot it was too late, Salizar leapt on him, knocking him to the ground and ripping the bow from his grasp, he tossed it aside and grabbed Primalis by the collar of his cloak. He yelled in his face, pure instinctual rage clouding his intelligence. “Savage!” Primalis spat. Salizar looked at him with a furious expression of hatred, he took Primalis’s knife case out of his satchel, “THEIF!” Primalis shouted. Salizar opened the case and jabbed two knives into Primalis’s shoulders, pinning him to a nearby tree, he let go of Primalis and took out another knife, he readied the throw. “Please, mercy..” Primalis begged. “Humans, don’t deserve … mercy.” Salizar said, he threw the knife. (Retcon moment.. THIS is the last time he speaks English..)
Three months had passed, the humans had found Primalis’s body and King Drake decided that he got what was coming to him, but the Taskforce was to continue the hunt for Salizar, under the command of Agent Fox. Ryker’s crew stayed in their hideout for most of the time, waiting for their chance to steal the megapithicus key and escape the ark, but the time had come, they were ready to face the dragon. “So, everyone knows the plan?” Ryker asked. “Yes, but the old strategy won’t work anymore, we’re short on men.” Killion said. “Oh Killion, we did this many times before, we don’t need your army.” Ryker said. Ras chuckled. “Trust the boss Killion, he knows what he’s doing.” Asher said. The group walked up to the obelisk podium, Wretch placed the artifacts in the control panel, and they were transported to the arena, the dragon’s lair. “Who dares disturb my slumber!” The dragon shouted. “Cmon bro, cliché line much? Your not even sleeping, your flying..” Ras said. “How dare you!!!” The dragon swooped down towards the crew, he readied a fireball, but he was stopped, Killion had teleport jumped into his wing, causing him immense pain and forcing him to crash, Wretch spat webbing on his snout, stopping him from trying the fireballs again, Asher and Ryker both grabbed his tail, and swung him into a nearby rock formation, the winded and confused dragon never saw Ras coming, he had found knives and intended to use them, the dragon was dead. “I think that was a record!” Ras said triumphantly. “Why don’t we just kill the megapithicus ourselves?” Killion asked. “You know how I hate questions Killion.. but if you must know, that fool Salizar already told the humans of the artifacts, and I’d rather not take on their entire army, it is much simpler to just take from them that which they do not know they have earned.” Ryker explained. Wretch snatched the key out of one of the dragon’s horns and they were shortly teleported out of the arena. “Two down one to go.” Ras said.
It was raining, the light downpour turning the freshly disturbed dirt soft. The tall rock behind the mound read, “here lies Dr. Mune Flight, one of the only two humans who had ever shown compassion. All others will join her.” Salizar stood in front of the grave, some wet black flowers in his hand, he was wearing the skull mask and Primalis’s cloak, he threw the flowers on the grave, thunder crashed, he turned away from the grave, his last shred of humanity buried along with her.
Journey: Chapter 12
Forest and Nightfall walked through the canyon paths that Nightfall said would lead them into the terminal pad for the obelisk. The entire time they were walking through it, Forest felt they were being watched. Forest thought that Nightfall was thinking the same thing. They were getting to a spot where they could see the platform.
“Let’s move faster, I’m starting to get the heeby jeebies.” Nightfall said. They started moving faster. Forest started outrunning Nightfall, Forest then felt a jab and looked back. Nightfall had grabbed on to his back, “Jump the gap!!!!!” Nightfall yelled Forest looked and saw the path winded around the outside and curved into a ramp. The rest was a giant moat around the platform.
Forest continued to sprint and jumped over to the platform. Forest looked back as he landed and saw shadowy bodies run from the top of the cliffs and could hear them yell, “He’s at the terminal!!!!! Get him and the creature he’s with!!!” The voice shouted.
The creatures were working their way around to the cliff side to the paths. Nightfall and Forest got to the terminal in the middle of the pad. “Okay so how did you get here before?? And please hurry up and tell me!!” Nightfall said, “I didn’t do anything, my friend was doing something stupid and crazy and I was trying to stop him!!!” Forest said. “Well what did your friend do? Please hurry up!!!!!” Nightfall said, “Well, he threw the rune at a terminal like this and my other friend touched it as it hit the terminal.” Forest said as he held the rune, the rune was barely glowing. “Okay, than all we have to do is repeat the process!!! Hold and bash it against the terminal!!!” Nightfall said.
Forest hesitated for a moment, he didn’t think it was good idea. He kept thinking about the shadowmane and the rune that killed him. “We have to hurry!!!!!!” Nightfall yelled, “The traitor is there, surround them.” The voice commanded.
Forest snapped out of his fear, he would rather die to the rune than get captured by unknown creatures. He raised the rune over his head, and slammed it against the terminal as hard as he could. The rune was dimmer than it was even earlier, and as the rune hit the terminal. Nothing, absolutely nothing happened.
