Macroceratus: The ultimate ceratopsian mount.

Macroceratus soldarius:

Genomes:

  1. Eotriceratops xerinsularis- Base (Provides frill, brow horns, nasal horn, beak, nasal heat exchange, and tough hide)
  2. Komodo Dragon- Anti-coagulant venom, epidermal keratin scales, dermal osteoderms, enhanced immune system, and anti-coagulant resistance
  3. Fjord Horse- Cognition and loyalty
  4. Edmontosaurus regalis- Leg musculature, wider hip, enlarged air sacs, thick tail, shock-absorbing foot pads, and size decrease
  5. Blue Wildebeest- Enhanced muscle metabolism and increase in hemoglobin and myoglobin

Stats:

  • Length- 28 ft
  • Height- 10 ft
  • Weight- 5.3 tons
  • Jab force- 51,000-62,500 N
  • Headbutt force- 74,000-89,000 N
  • Bite force- 3,900-4,800 N
  • Walking speed- 4-6 MPH
  • Sustained running speed- 16-18 MPH
  • Top speed- 26-28 MPH

Description: Macroceratus are fast and loyal to their trainers. They serve as mounts on difficult terrain where cars can’t pass or as an army against rogue hybrids. Thanks to their smaller size and hadrosaur genes, these blue ornithischians can run at high speeds for extended periods. A lone Macroceratus may not stand a chance against a theropod, but a herd of 30 will trample several theropods at once.

  • Bite force- 10,686-11,508 N
  • Walking speed- 1-2 MPH
  • Sustained running speed- 12-14 MPH
  • Top speed- 18-20 MPH

Description: She’s huge. She’s tough. And she’s mean. Unless you grew up with her in the park, then she’s a fiercely protective ally. Anyone who threatens her or her friends will be gored by those sharp horns, have their legs crunched by her surprisingly strong beak, and/or get bitch-slapped by the menacing combo of tail club and thagomizers. Not only can she penetrate thick hide, but she can also damage even the toughest armor. Thanks to Shantungosaurus genes, she can move at relatively high speeds for her weight class. However, she has noticeable weaknesses. She, of course, is not very agile. This is mitigated by her armor and tail club. While it may be tough, they can eventually break. There are also larger ceratopsian hybrids who can outmuscle her in a sparring match. Still, she excels at what she does. If you get behind her, nobody except for massive sauropods and exceptionally fast threats can hurt you. She’s a very reliable guardian.

Her name used to be Shelly, but back then, she was a bit flawed. I had to finish her design. But I really didn't want to draw a triceratops body when I already had a shantungosaurus body drawn. And besides, a hadrosaur body would increase her movement speed, which she desperately needed anyway.

Feel free to challenge her with your ceratopsian hybrids... maybe even theropods. Hey, maybe I should make a theropod that can counter 20+ ton ceratopsians sometime. Not sure how well that'll go.

Beelzebruh 2.0 is here. He no longer looks like a red abomination he once was. He is my monitor lizard champion. But instead of violating theropods, he just stands there. Then violates anyone who attempts to strike first.

Barbarivaranus fatalis (Beelzebruh):

Genome:

  1. Komodo Dragon- Base (Provides iron-serrated teeth, anti-coagulant venom, enhanced immune system, anti-coagulant resistance, forked tongue, and Jacobson's organ)
  2. Earless Monitor Lizard- Epidermal bumpy keratin scales, dermal osteoderms, and hidden ears
  3. Tarbosaurus bataar- Robust skull, jaws, slightly curved, and decently serrated teeth
  4. Taurovenator violantei- Flexible and strong neck for thrashing and twisting
  5. Peregrine Falcon- Cognition and faster reaction time
  6. Shantungosaurus giganteus- Hip musculature, wider hip, enlarged air sacs, shock-absorbing foot pads, raised neural spines (especially towards the back), and size increase
  7. Shringasaurus indicus- Curved horns
  8. Leatherback Sea Turtle- Esophageal papillae, oil-rich leathery hide, lactic acid buffering, and pressure-resistant cartilaginous + bony skeleton
  9. Zygophyseter varolai- Thick, slightly curved teeth
  10. Blue Wildebeest- Enhanced muscle metabolism and increase in myoglobin
  11. American Bison- Shoulder hump
  12. Ingentia prima- Powerful front limb base
  13. Smilodon fatalis- Additional front limb musculature and a small portion of fast-twitch arm muscles
  14. Tiger Shark- Fluorapatite teeth and limited electroreception

Stats:

  • Length- 54 ft
  • Height- 15 ft
  • Weight- 15 tons
  • Bite force- 24,574-26,668 N
  • Walking speed- 2-4 MPH
  • Sustained running speed- 8-10 MPH
  • Top speed- 22-24 MPH

Description: Beel is a menace. Most of the time, he roams around the park, observing the surroundings. Thankfully, he doesn't prey on the staff nor other hybrids because he's well-fed. However, he does not play fetch like the others. He stands there menacingly, staring into your soul. He is definitely comfortable around familiar scents of the staff and his fellow hybrids, but he becomes cautious if he smells strangers. In a fight, he never makes the first move. If the opponent never makes a move, neither will he. But if they do, he will spring into action, skedaddling out of the way and striking the flanks or stomach with his massive teeth. He will then proceed to tear out a chunk of flesh. The serrated edges on the thick teeth make it easier to tear said flesh. He will repeat this until the foe succumbs to their injuries. But if you leave him alone, he'll leave you alone only because he is well-fed back at the park.

Beelzebruh 2.0 teaser (1.0 was a disgusting abomination)

I haven't completed his genome yet, but you can probably guess some of them. Nonetheless, this guy will rival Rector in power. But instead of violating theropods, he just stands there, menacingly.

Now, should he keep Zygophyseter teeth so he can pull chunks of flesh out, or should it be a composite of both crushing and serrating (Tarbosaurus)?

Damn, it's been 2 freaking weeks. I was busy with school homework and AP exams, but I'm back. Still busy with the former.
