What should I name my tournament?

What should I name my tournament?

(Image unrelated)

I'm going to host a tournament that functions like a standard bracket but instead of a bracket, which hybrid fights which is determined by location on a map that everybody picks for their hybrid. Their location on the map also determines where the hybrids fight (it's a bit more complicated than that; it will be explained later).

Anyhow, what should I do for a name?

I was thinking Wild War, idk if that's good.

It's nice because of alliteration and it makes sense (it's a hybrid war taking place in the "wild")

But it's a bit bland...

What do y'all think?

why it sucks to be born as a Tricranis Tempest.

sequel or previous meme on Mnema aka Radiogigantus - https://www.reddit.com/r/GojiCenter/s/0MNRMDbwvR

yep to think at the beginning when they were freaks of nature with heads splitting that if they hadn’t evolved nowadays we would put them out of their misery besides it would still be tough for them.

which is sharing a body as the middle head would have to convince or find some common goals with two of their siblings’s heads in order to have a successful sibling relationship as Alaric is the leader ‘calling the shots’, Kasim is the brute ‘enforcing wrath first’ and Oliver/Oksana is the humble ‘kind to let those to fight another day’ so naturally their dynamic with having different personalities is interesting.

along with having to travel to where or find storms that are most active not only to charge/amp up but also where it’s moist and humid but if they couldn’t find those elements that makes them resourceful then it’s up to bare wits then conductive electricity not to mention having to deal with Goliath’s species ‘Thermoradiosaurus’ as territories sometimes overlap which confrontations sometimes ends with Tricranis retreating or dying ‘as it’s debated on they come third or fourth to Colossopithecus aka Kairos’.

Anyone wanna merge universes?

Like since some people do ecology for their hybrids, we could merge verses so our hybrids could coexist and we could write about ecology and coexistence.

Definetely not an excuse to fill up V's ecology section...

Noms : Lilith (femelle)/ Risen (mâle)

Génome :

T-rex : base

Acrocanthosaurus : Épine neurale surélevée

Shantungosaurus : musculature globale, principale contributeur à la taille

Bison : muscles du cou, crâne résistant aux impacts, cornes, augmente les muscles

Thylacoleo : bras, griffes semi-retractables, pouces opposable, dents acérées sur le devant de la gueule

Grand fourmilier : bras encore renforcés, griffes, peau épaisse sur le ventre, poils ventraux tournés vers l'arrière, muscles abdominaux plus développé

Sanglier : résistance aux venins, tolérance à la douleur, plaques de cartilages dans le torse

Spicomellus : armure constituée d'épines, notamment sur la queue, le dos et la nuque

Caiman noir : crâne résistant, armure d'ostéodermes sur tout le corps, hémostase, système digestif et immunitaire

Glouton : os de la machoire plus résistants pour résister à sa propre morsure, tranchants des griffes dentelé, tolérance extrême à la douleur

Belette : bras de levier de la machoire plus court pour maximiser la force de morsure

Pinson à gros bec : muscles des machoires en pennation qui augmentent la quantité de fibres musculaires dans le muscle(merci Spino!)

Tegu argentin : muscles de la mâchoire hypertrophiés qui rendent la morsure vraiment dévastatrice, reproduction via parthenogenese

Coelacanth : boîte crânienne graisseuse pour résister à sa morsure et aux impacts

Faucon pelerin : contrôle neuromusculaires extrême, réflexes

Singe hurleur : os hyoïde hypertrophié, cordes vocales hypertrophiés, poche d'air dans la gorge pour un rugissement surpuissant

Gnou bleu : refroidissement du cerveau et des muscles, transformation, endurance, tolérance à la chaleur, lèvres kératinisées

Autruche : muscles des pattes arrières, système immunitaire

Dragon de Komodo : dents dentelées sur la pointe, renforcement des dents en fer, kératine bêta, venin anticoagulant

Dimensions de Lilith

Taille : 16 mètres de long, 6 mètres à l'épaule

Poids : 14,5 tonnes

Force de morsure : 350,000 Newtons.

Et elle parfaitement adaptée à une telle force étant donné son crâne ultra solide, ses dents en fer et sa boîte crânienne graisseuse qui absorbe le choc.

Rugissement : 90 dB

Dimensions de Risen

Taille : 14 mètres de long, 5,3 mètres à l'épaule

Poids : 12,7 tonnes

Force de morsure : 280,000 Newtons.

Il est aussi bien adapté que Lilith à une telle force de morsure.

Ces deux hybrides sont de la même espèce, et sont en fait frères et sœurs. Le mot "Imperator" dans leur nom scientifique varie simplement au féminin pour Lilith en "Imperatrix". Ils sont là version 2.0 d'un hybride que j'avais fait à l'époque sur mon ancien compte😅 mais cette version est retravaillée et singulièrement plus forte.

Étant donné leur taille et poids, Risen et Lilith ne comptent pas sur la vitesse pour la chasse et le combat, plutôt sur leur endurance et force extrême pour mettre au sol et tailler en pièces toute créature assez folle pour s'opposer à eux.

Bien que plus efficaces lorsqu'ils chassent et combattent ensemble, ils restent extrêmement féroce en combat 1v1.

Si on fait un résumé de ces hybrides, on a des théropodes géants chassant ensemble, dotés d'une morsure assez puissante pour briser les os et l'armure de sauropodes de plusieurs fois leur poids, avec des bras massifs aux griffes géantes rétractables à la dextérité augmentée grâce à leur faux pouces de Thylacoleo, dont le corps est recouvert d'une armure solide et épineuse qui rendra coup pour coup les dégâts reçus, avec une queue géante hérissée d'épines, un abdomen et torse blindés, des jambes puissantes pour propulser leur masse, un système immunitaire, digestif et respiratoire à tout épreuve, et assez d'endurance pour se battre pendant 3 heure sous le soleil, le tout en étant relativement intelligent.

Je suis ouvert à tout défi hors compétition 😁

Bonne chance,

Frost Reaper

u/_That1PLAYER_ — 1 day ago

Here me out (part 2)

Leopard seal is the base
Eastern forest hedgehog provides modified the hairs all over the body (except the flippers) to be stiff and spine like
Sea otter increases the density of the hairs, somewhat thins them, sebaceous glands at the base of each hair that produce hydrophobic oils to cover the hairs
Italian greyhound provides proportionally the shortest hairs (between 3-15mm scaled and varying depending on the place on the body)

This create a plastron (air jacket/bubble) around the body (excluding the flippers) and provides a couple benefits:

  1. Extended dive durations: When the hybrid breathes in the air in the bubble, dissolve oxygen from the surrounding body of water dissolves in while when it breathes out, carbon dioxides goes back into the water and dissolves in. This doesn’t replace lungs, rather extends the time under for an air breather.
  2. Drag reduction: Instead of water dragging against fur or skin, water slides directly against air. By preventing water turbulence and eddies from forming along its flanks, total body hydrodynamic drag drops by 20% to 35%.
  3. Air is a terrible conductor of heat so the air jacket acts as a thermal buffer, resisting changes to internal body and reducing the need for things like blubber.
  4. Acoustic distortion: Water transmits sound waves exceptionally well. The air-jacket acts as an acoustic sound buffer, making whale echolocation organs useless against it.
  5. Decent armor: It can also provides armor for obvious reasons

u/EndenReturns1426 — 2 days ago

Today is a dark day for the GojiCenter subreddit: I joined the theropod hybrid hivemind. Millions will weep.

Stats:

- Name: Prionoraptor spiculus ("Beowulf")

- Length: 45 feet (16.7 meters)

- Height: 15 feet (4.8 meters)

- Weight: 14.5 metric tons (15,500 kilograms)

- Bite force: 93,000 newtons

- Speed: 3-4 mph (walking/default), 18-25 mph (jog/power-walk).

Genome:

1. Tyrannosaurus rex:

The base genome; I don't think I need to go over why. But, just in case no one already figured this out, T-Rex provides its massive size and broad stature, extremely durable muscles and skeleton, ventral gastralia, exceptionally well-developed vision and olfaction, a deeply sunken hip joint for sustained agility, solid intelligence, and of its primary weapons: a massive, robust, shock-absorbant skull delivering the strongest bite force of any land animal through 60 banana-shaped, deeply-rooted teeth.

2. Tarbosaurus bataar:

Tarbosaurus's specialized angular and dentary bones had a unique ridge-and-groove which would have allowed the jaw to lock up in place when biting down on a prey item, turning the mandible into a rigid structure that would have prevented dislocation or snapping when the animal it bit into started struggling. Enhancing T-Rex's already powerful bite in this way allows Beowulf to both drive solid banana-shaped teeth through other animals' outer defenses while ensuring once he secures a solid grip, his jaws will not yield or release their hold regardless of how hard the other animal starts to struggle.

3. Apatosaurus ajax:

Similar to some theropods though with a more guaranteed purpose, its bifurcated (two-pronged) neural spines give Beowulf a full bony ridge across his back to anchor massive muscles and tendons that afford extra attachment points for the muscles in other places of his body, as well as massive caudofemoralis muscles that, unlike those of other dinosaurs (such as Shantungosaurus and Carnotaurus), maximize raw physical force when it comes to mobility over attempting to sustain high speeds that would not be possible at megatheropod sizes.

Compared to lighter relatives like Diplodocus, the neural spines and overall vertebrae of Apatosaurus are noticeably wider, chunkier, and built to handle higher mechanical stress. These would also have provided large surface areas for insertion of spinal and epaxial musculature, which theropods like Carnotaurus did not have the advantage of due to oversized, hyper-dominant CFLs. A high-backed profile like this also anchors the massive forces transmitted from the hips and shoulder girdle during locomotion.

Let's not also forget its V/Y-shaped chevrons located lengthwise along the underside of the tail, which would've also housed massive tail muscles and would likely also support the massive CFLs. All in all, these specialized skeletal adaptations provide immense balance and support the theropod's anatomy very well.

4. Eoabelisaurus:

This was chosen over other abelisaurs because it still has functional, well-developed arms while also providing the benefit of condensing the length of the snout to concentrate that bite force closer to the fulcrum (jaw muscles and mandible joint) for raw power when clamping down on a target and, overall, just ensuring more force is delivered compared to the original base genome. The functional arms help retain instincts and congruity for the contributors that will provide Beowulf's massive, weaponized forelimbs.

5. Hippopotamus gorgops:

This provides flared, forward-pointing processes on the rear of the Tyrannosaurus mandible for colossal muscle attachments and a specialized, shallow mandibular socket that allows the jaw to roll back and open incredibly wide, similar in principle to some theropods like Allosaurus, whose jaws could open up at a staggering 90 degrees. Combined with the existing Tyrannosaurus bite force and condensed abelisaurid-like snout, this allows Beowulf to open his jaws incredibly wide and snap down with devastating force or get his mouth around extremely girthy limbs and anatomical structures.

This modified jaw joint is then further assisted by a pair of highly elastic, springy jaw muscles called the orbicularis oris that act like an accordion, whose elastic traits are also spread into the other jaw muscles to allow them to stretch incredibly wide in order to allow the mouth to open as wide as it can. Yes, in mammals such a mandibular joint would occur on the dentary, but in the case of a reptile like this, this sort of structural modifier would just alter the articular instead.

6. African grey parrot:

These birds possess two unique muscle types in their jaw no other bird outside of the parrot family possesses: the musculus ethmomandibularis and musculus pseudomasseters. Combined with a thick, durable, razor-sharp beak in front of the teeth and colossal adductor muscles that function similar in line to that of a ceratopsian, and Beowulf's bite becomes that much nastier; the already condensed snout, flared mandibular processes, extreme jaw gape, and now these new additional muscles paired with a shearing, pointed beak transform Beowulf's bite into the stuff of nightmares.

There is still one more contributor that could make this even worse. Also, let's not forget the parrot's intelligence and extremely developed cognition by means of a hyper-advanced telencephalon with densely packed neurons, as well as the ability to utilize tetrachromatic vision, all of which are added here.

7. Komodo dragon:

This lizard provides both its iron-edged, ziphodont tooth serrations for extra sharpness and durability along the cutting edges, and its fatal hemotoxic venom that causes fatal hemorrhaging and external/internal bleeding. More importantly though, the tail vertebrae are made biconcave in structure with extra fatty cushioning to completely the cushioning muscles of the sauropod, allowing Beowulf to use his tail to defend against attacks from the rear. Though, in principle like a monitor lizard, the tail is used less like a whip and more like a solid club, bludgeoning with a muscular "push" over a cut-like lashing blow. Its potent antimicrobial immune system and powerful vomeronasal organ (coupled with a bird-like motile tongue to flick scents up) also added, just because.

8. Kookaburra:

A kookaburra's skull is fused to act as a stiff hammer; the impact energy bypasses the braincase by being channeled directly down the rigid bone lines of the jaw and safely dissipating into the bird’s sturdy shoulders and body cavity.

These fused skull bones, enlarged and dense bony ridge (occipital crest) specifically designed to anchor hyper-developed neck muscles, and cushioning cervical cartilage and hypertrophied neck muscles combine with thick nictitating membranes to prevent blood vessels in the eyes from popping and stabilizing sclerotic rings from the base genome keeps the eyes unharmed and allows Beowulf to thrash his head from side to side like a pitbull as he lands a bite or absorb the shock of his colossal bite force.

This also makes it easier to ram as T-Rex’s anatomy was build to absorb serious blunt force trauma especially in the skull; the shortened, bulldog-like face with these fused nasal bones and cushioning neck adaptations send the force from the top of the skull directly through the neck and into the shoulders where the force is distributed into the ground safely. Beowulf's angular and dentary are less fused to allow for the jaw-locking mechanism to function effectively.

9. Megatherium americanum:

It seems pretty obvious why the sloth is here.

Those massive arms, modified scapula, powerful deltoid muscles, and elbow processes provide incredibly large, powerful forelimbs with sickle-shaped claws and immense physiological leverage and dexterity for grappling and swiping. This also provides a unique layer of durodentine located underneath the enamel coating outside and allow the cementum to intertwine with the existing enamel for extra support and the ability to self-sharpen the teeth (thegosis) when chewing food, meaning instead of relying on deliberately practiced grinding, the teeth naturally sharpen as Beowulf feeds or bites down into whatever is on the receiving end of his jaws.

10. Maip macrothorax:

In proportion to its body, this megaraptoran possessed an especially wide chest cavity which likely housed more powerful cardiopulmonary organs and a system of massive air sacs that would have supercharged stamina, which benefits Beowulf incredibly well. The humerus, like other megaraptorans, would likely have had massive deltapectoral crests and a greater range of motion than most theropods, which synergizes well with the ground sloth arms for devastating swipes.

This wide chest is needed because his air sacs are a smidgen oversized thanks to contributions from the Apatosaurus which allow him to take in more oxygen and help him breath more easily. More oxygen equals more stamina meaning better thermoregulation and being far less likely to tire out as quickly as other theropods. This extra boost in stamina is again a redundancy but it’s definitely good to have.

11. Red kangaroo:

Kangaroos are the gold standard for tendon elasticity. Up to 80% of the energy used is recovered directly from the elastic recoil of the massive tendons in their hind legs. As they speed up, their unique mechanics allow them to move faster without burning additional oxygen, which here would provide Beowulf with even stronger leg tendons that work in tandem with the colossal leg muscles and CFLs of the Apatosaurus for incredible power in his back legs that make his tyrannosaur-level agility all the more necessary for running down and catching targets off guard with his sheer efficiency.

Now, Beowulf is a speed demon with extreme agility even at this size. Looking pretty good.

12. Blue wildebeest:

A landmark study from the Royal Veterinary College revealed that blue wildebeest possess a mind-boggling muscle efficiency rate of 62.6%, making the blue wildebeest the titleholder for having the most efficient muscular system in the mammalian kingdom. It converts nearly two-thirds of its energy directly into movement; it only loses a third as heat. Combined with heavily muscled forequarters and high-efficiency hemoglobin, most of the muscle efficiency goes straight into mobility instead of thermal radiation, which prevents overheating to a significant margin.

Beowulf now obtains these extremely efficient muscle fibers and unprecedented stamina that combine with everything else for allowing him to sustain pursuit predation and remaining in combat far longer than most theropods could by default. With Gnu-like muscle efficiency, he can now spend most of his energy purely for movement and combat while only dumping a third of that energy as excess body heat, which is quickly flushed out thanks to his powerful breathing system.

13. Thorny devil:

Two things: the armor and the thermoregulation. Thorny devils possess a full-body coverage of rigid, extremely durable keratinous spikes that act as briars that protect even their throat and underbelly, fending off predators and likely causing deep lacerations at this scale.

When combined with the thick hide of the Apatosaurus, the defense becomes more than adequate without hindering mobility. The rigid, jagged spines protect Beowulf’s new-founded leg tendons and CFLs from getting slashed and turns the tail into a biological hacksaw when used to bludgeon attackers trying to strike from the rear, which in turn adds two layers of protection for the legs and CFLs.

In addition, their limbs possess highly muscular dermal capillaries that help pull water across the skin by means of capillary action which act as a method of thermoregulation, allowing the lizard to drink that condensed moisture to remain hydrated. Granted, as warm-blooded (or at least within the homeothermy spectrum) as they were, saurischian air sacs likely helped regulate their body temperature, but this is just a failsafe.

14. Virginia opossum:

LTNF proteins are added into Beowulf's blood from this. Everyone knows what these do already (broad spectrum neutralization of toxins), so I don't need to explain this too much.
