List of Dinosaurs
Rhizodus was the largest freshwater
fish that ever lived. It roamed the planet in the entirety of the Carboniferous
period and was probably the apex predator of the freshwater ecosystems. It was
almost 25 feet long and had fangs that were close to 9 inches in length. It
usually ripped apart its prey rather than swallow it whole. It has been
proposed that Rhizodus could lunge out of water like a crocodile to capture terrestrial prey.
In Game
Rhizodus is an AI controlled boss
creature that lurks around the Grand River and Carnian Swamps. It does very
high damage as well as the Bleed side effect. It is extremely aggressive and
will not hesitate to attack any creature in the water.
One of the most ancient predators found in Pangaea, Anthracosaurus existed in the Carboniferous era. It was a mostly aquatic predator that resembled an eel with limbs.
Paleo Chronicles
Anthracosaurus was a large predator
for its time, measuring 10 feet in length with a 1.4-foot-long skull. Its jaws
were packed with large teeth that would have made it capable of taking on prey
larger than fish. It belongs to an order of stem tetrapods called Embolomeri.
It was probably a very fast swimmer that used undulating eel like movements
while swimming.
In Game Attributes
The fastest swimmer in the game, Anthracosaurus is extremely aggressive in nature which compensates for its mediocre health and slow speed on land. It can do really high damage and can also inflict bleed which it can use to take down small terrestrial prey. They can inhabit underwater caves and have a large oxygen meter as well. However, it can still be killed easily by anything larger than itself due to its low health and sluggish nature on land.
Preferred Biomes
- Carnian Swamps
- Grand River
- Hushed Forests
The largest amphibian that ever
roamed the planet, Prionosuchus lived in the Permian era. Shaped like a
crocodile with long narrow jaws, it is thought to be an ambush hunter like
modern crocodilians.
Paleo Chronicles
Prionosuchus was gigantic with a
length of 28 – 33 feet and weighing up to 2 tons. It had more than 60 razor
sharp teeth in its jaws and likely preyed on anything in its domain. It was an
ambush hunter due its small limbs that would have made it slow on land.
In Game Attributes
Prionosuchus is one the largest
predators that stalks the water ways in Pangaea. It has a large amount of
health and decent damage. It is a very fast swimmer but it is slow on land. It can
only nest in water and is vulnerable to predation in its juvenile stages.
Preferred Biomes
- Carnian Swamps
- Grand River
Sordes is a very small Pterosaur that
lived in the late Jurassic period. They are very important in Paleontology as
they were the first Pterosaurs to show evidence of a fur like outer layer on
their body.
Paleo Chronicles
Sordes was very small with a wingspan
of 2 feet and a length of about 4 feet. They are thought to have eaten both
fish and small amphibians with their jaws being designed for crushing and
chewing. They had a short neck and a long tail that was over half its body
length.
In Game Attributes
Sordes is the fastest flyer in the
game and has higher stamina than the Pteranodon. They can only prey on fish and
they have low health and damage. However due to their size it is quite easy for
them to hide and evade capture.
Preferred Biomes
- Carnian Swamps
- Grand River
- Hushed Forests
Pteranodons are a species of
Pterosaurs from the late Cretaceous period. They are probably the most
well-known and researched species within their family with more than 1200
specimens unearthed over the years.
Paleo Chronicles
They were some of the largest flying
animals ever discovered with a body length of 6 feet and a wingspan of 23 – 25
feet. They mainly hunted fish and are thought to have been able to immerse its
head and neck underwater to snatch unsuspecting prey. They had a characteristic
crest that many blood vessels, mainly in males, that were likely used in
courting. They also flew in a pattern similar to modern Albatrosses which was
mainly comprised of gliding and soaring with occasional bursts of rapid flapping.
In Game Attributes
Pteranodons are the largest flyers in
Pangaea and they mainly prey on fish, Sordes and juveniles of lower tier
dinosaurs. They can glide along the surface of water and snatch fish from the
surface with ease. They do very little damage and has very low health so they
should avoid combat with anything stronger than itself. They can nest on top of
large trees and rock formations to avoid predation.
Preferred Biomes
Tatisaurus is an early ornithischian
dinosaur from the early Jurassic period. It was about 4 feet long and weighed
around 30 kilograms. Not much is known about the species as it is known from
just a few bone fragments.
In Game
Tatisaurus is found in large herds
throughout Pangaea. It is very fast and will flee at the slightest signs of
trouble. They are very commonly found in the Carnian swamps and Grand River.
Texacephale is a very small pachycephalosaurid from the late Cretaceous period. It would have been about 6.6 feet long and weighed around 45 kilograms.
In Game
Texacephale are often found in
heavily vegetated areas in herds. They will fight back against predators and
will charge at threats. They will only attack juveniles and sub adults of
smaller carnivores and will flee from anything larger.
One of the earliest ceratopsians,
Xuanhuaceratops lived in the Jurassic period. It was very small, measuring 3
feet long and 6 kilograms in weight.
In Game
Xuanhuaceratops is often found in
small to medium sized herds and it can easily be killed by any creature. It
does not provide a lot of food by itself and it is quite fast as well. It is
extremely sensitive to its surroundings and is very skittish in nature.
Supersaurus was a large sauropod that
existed in the late Jurassic period. One of the largest dinosaurs of all time,
Supersaurus was 110 – 125 feet long and weighed an estimated 40 tons. It had a
very long tail that it probably used to fend off potential predators, although
considering its size an adult Supersaurus would have been too powerful to be
preyed on.
In Game
Supersaurus is the largest and most
powerful creature in Pangaea. One of the three boss creatures in the game,
Supersaurus is different from other bosses in that it will not actively hunt
other players but it is extremely territorial and will not tolerate any other
creatures in its domain. It does insane amounts of damage and can kill most
creatures in the game in one strike. However, its attack speed is very slow and
it is quite sluggish in its movements. With careful planning and coordination,
Supersaurus can be taken down by groups of carnivores and once down it will
provide food for days.
Thescelosaurus is a small ornithopod
from the Cretaceous period. It was one of the last dinosaurs to walk the planet
before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.
Paleo Chronicles
Thescelosaurus was 8 – 13 feet long
and weighed 200 – 300 kilograms. It had a slender, light body with sturdy hind
limbs and small wide arms. It was probably a herbivore but it could have
potentially feasted on small animals as well. It is considered is to a fast and
agile creature that would have preferred to live along streams and rivers.
In Game Attributes
Thescelosaurus is very fast and easy
to hide. It can inhabit small caves due to its slender build and it is not
affected by the swamp’s speed debuff as well. It has low health and damage so
they should avoid altercations with predators at all cost.

- Hushed Forests
- Ancient Woods
- Grand River
- Carnian Swamps
