Roleplaying

Moriko jolted awake and went out. "Man hide that herbivore before the feral T rex tries to eat it... All I have here is water... Water your animals in the morning and we will see what I can do with you... This is my property... I'll also ask you to remove that armor from your poor raptors before they overheat..." Moriko's raptors stepped out ready to protect her Tiger taking the front. He was actually considerably larger than the other raptors. His attitude to anyone who knew a raptor was defensive. Moriko looked around and heard footsteps. "That rex is coming and you have to hide that herbivore before it comes..." She went back into the tent and her raptors retreated to their den.

Mavier sat bolt upright, sneaking quietly up a tree.

Who... Who was that? She didn't recognize the man. Not that she herself was likely to recognize anyone, Mavier was a notorious introvert.

She made no noise as she crept closer to the man. The raptors... Definetley intimidating. But Trudge and Red could probably handle them, if need be.

The man himself, however, could be a threat. He could probably put up a good fight with that staff, and she herself only had a knofe as a weapon.

Well, that wasn't tp say she couldn't try to intimidate him.

She made a geature to Red and Trudge, whi bothnbegan to growl from their hidden locations.

The man suddenly comes to a halt. He lowers his staff just a tiny bit. The man then says, "Look ma'am, I have no idea who you think you are but this ankylosaurus has defended my loot from a lot of things over my years of trading. I'm sure it can defend against a T-Rex. Also, if there is a T-Rex coming, then why should I take their armor off? They're well hydrated if you're worried about that. Oh yeah, you should get your dinosaurs to settle down. We don't want to get into a mess now." The man raises his hand into a fist and signals his dinosaurs to stay sharp. The man then asks, "Now I ask you one last time, what is your name?"

The man's comment really set Mavier off. Who was this pretentious ahole?

Who did he think he was, barging in and making demands? Shs growled and revealed herself, Red begind her growling in a warning

"Look, I don't know WHO you think you are... But you'd better stuff it. Get your head out of the clouds... D-Rail."

She moved closer to him, gripping her dagger in her pocket. Trudge and Red moved closer.

Both of her dinosaurs were larger than his raptors. The anklyosauras may have been big, but she knew it was probably also slow. Especially if Moriko joined, she stood a good chance if it came to a fight.

And she would just LOVE to take this arrogant jerk down a few pegs.

"Moriko Shiba" Moriko's raptors were in the den. "I cannot account for my friend and I'd rather the rex stayed alive... It keeps the raiders at bay... I will also be the judge of how your raptors really are..." Moriko went up to the two and grabbed their scruffs quickly watching how the skin and feathers fell back. "They are dehydrated. But only slightly... Also Armor doesn't really do any good. At least leather like that I stupidly invested in the stuff in an arena fight before this storm and it was effectively totaled and my raptor nearly lost the fight..." Moriko stepped back as she heard the massive foot steps. Moriko went back into the tent to wait it out... She wasn't sure who this man thought he was but he might take some warming up to...

The man instantly turns towards the voice and notices the girl and her dinosaurs. The man replies, "Woah there little girl, stand down." The man reaches for an object in his back pocket but keeps his hand there. The man continues, "Now look, I wouldn't ever want to hurt anybody, but if either of you release those dinosaurs of yours then I will have no choice." The man's dinosaurs start to move closer to the man. The man looks a bit anxious. He then puts on a smirk and says, "I guess the dinosaurs weren't the only ones to turn feral." He laughs a tiny bit. Still a bit shaky.

Moriko was starting to get irked about this and that was HARD to do... But she had to remain calm... She heard the rex's footsteps stop in front of the tent and the others hadn't noticed. It was snuffing at the tent with a strange growl... Almost a whine if a rex could. Moriko stepped out and the rex snuffed her happily. "It is you... Yes I remember you too." The rex had honey yellow eyes and brown siamese markings on a tawny base. "Yes it is you Kitten..." The rex was clearly young but she was happy to see a familiar face out here... Moriko said "Guys this rex is friendly! She wasn't mine but she belonged to my neighbor... Looks like she's been eating well too... Must have been coming around because she smelled somebody familiar..." Moriko was smiling... But that also meant she had something she might be able to use to intimidate that new guy... She shot him a look it was a warning. A loud and clear warning...

Red snarled warningly at the rex, torn between getting ready to attack it and attacking the strange man.

Mavier didn't care about the the rex. Moriko clearly had it under control, she didn't need to take any of her focus away from this guy.

Was that a quiver in his voice she heard? Perhaps she could intimidate him a bit.

"Listen here... You think the dinos you see here are the only ones we got? Think again, pal. We got a whole pack waiting for you to put just one friggin TOE out of line... I suggest you watch what comes outta that mouth of yours..."

The man looks very concerned now and beings to shake dramatically. He drops his staff and puts his hand from behind his back out in the open. He raises his hand and gives his dinosaurs the command to stand down. The man replies, "I apologize for my rude arrival. Just please don't send your dinosaurs on me. You can take whatever I own. I surrender." The man looks extremely ashamed and upset. He is also shaking like crazy now. His face is a bright pink. The man then says in a worried voice, "Well, are you going to steal from me or not?"

Moriko said "No we're not raiders... This sweet heart seems to be scaring them off and keeping herself well fed in the process... Now I have to dig out my barn... I'll never find that celler at this rate..." Moriko had muttered the cellar part under her breath so the stranger didn't hear. She was rubbing the rex and her pack had come out and were snuffing the rex to familiarize her scent to themselves... Moriko continued "We don't have anything to give you except water and this is or was my property... Anything you find here is mine but I am willing to share, do not mention where I dig I am looking for something important.. If I'm right it will lead to something that will benifit everyone who's willing to work... What my companion there does with you is up to her..." Moriko was not pretending to control the girl that much was clear...

The man looks quite surprised. His skin looks like it's turning back to it's normal, pale, form. He isn't shaking as much now. He picks up his staff and uses it as a walking stick now. The man says, "I'm so very sorry for being so hostile upon arrival. My name is Maxwell, but you can call me Max. I am a merchant of sorts, a peddler of expensive and exotic goods. I travel far away land from my homeland. Anyways, I've come here to find the lengendary jewels witching those mountains to the west. I was told that it was extremely risky to come here which is something I am not excited about at all, however, if I do this I will be able to raise a family that wouldn't have to work for at least 2 generations. This journey means everything to me. Now, what can I do for you two? I have already disturbed you both much more than I should've. Would you care for some food? Or shall I give you some proper cotton blankets? Whatever I can do to help."

Moriko said "There are no jewels up there... There's a cave full of rare but now worthless goods that is guarded by an allosaurus if he's still alive... Potions that could turn certain dinosaurs into t rexes among other things..." Moriko said "What I need is people who I can trust and are willing to work... I have something that got buried here that might bring stability back to this place. Not jewels just vital supplies and some equipment... Seriously though the armor is just a waste. Raptor claws shred leather easy so it's more hinderance than asset. I sent Tiger over there to the arena once and stupidly bought armor for what I thought was a good price turns out it was worthless. Shredded in a matter of seconds... Besides one good chomp from an allosaurus or a t rex and it's all over for those two and any clever hunters like my three could take out your ankylosaurus without problem... Especially with a rex that could bite that club tail off helping them. Or just flipping it over would do it..." 

Max replies, "Ugh! I should've known that knave of a merchant was lying when he said there was jewels in those mountains." Max sighs and looks a little upset. Max looks back up and says, "Well, what can I do to make up for my wrongdoings. I feel guilty for just barging in here and acting as if you two were petty bandits." A whimper can be heard from one of Max's two deinonychus. Max turns and notices how tired his dinosaurs look. Max continues and says, "Can my dinos rest here while I do some work? They really need it now that we've been walking all day in the heat." Max looks worried for his dinosaurs and even guilty that he made them walk so far.

Moriko sighed and said "These are dangerous times it is an honest mistake to make. I was thinking the same of you... Let me see your raptors... You don't seem all that familiar with their care..." The first thing she did was remove the armor and the raptors seemed much better ruffling their feathers and preening... "They can't wear armor for extended periods... It gets itchy. The two raptors started taking dust baths and ruffling their plumage. They were also clearly exhausted and Moriko handed the human back the armor. "If you insist on them wearing it only put it on them when you have to..." She examined the raptors again. "They also have fleas... I don't have the medicine for it... You can repay me by not telling anyone where we are... Raiders came here for water but Kitten here seems to have frightened them off for now... What I want to know is what she's been eating..." Moriko looked up at Kitten thoughtfully and said "On another note it is important to work so why would you want to become that wealthy only to have it last two generations? People need something to do and leisure does not fill the void..."

Max replied, "Well to be completely honest, I was going to use that money to start my own trading empire. With money like that, I would be able to set up a trading post, a harbor, and hire a workforce that could do everything for me." Max looks as if he's talking to himself now. He continues to ramble on, "Oh just image! The Salomon Enterprise! It would be so glorious!" Max shakes his head remembering that he wasn't talking to himself. He then says, "Oh! My apologies. I've developed quite the habit of talking to myself on these long travels. And you are right. I honestly have never really been taught how to properly take care of them." Max starts to look ashamed of himself. Max then says, "I really should be taught how to take care of them better."

Mostly desertish area. There's mountains to the west, but they're freezing and climing them would be ill advised.

Food, water, and weapons are rare and hard to find. This place is borderline post-appocolypse. 

Takes place iAlso, n modern day, so no super advances technology.

Survive the on the island of exhibited after a devastating storm. Avoid bandits, rouge dinosaurs, and dark, sinister forces that hang over your head. Form alliances with other breeders, and try to keep your few remaining dinos safe.

 

Keep your friends close, enemies closer, and OH GOD IT"S THE FERAL T-REX AGAIN RUN!

 

The island of Exhibited was a thriving place filled with farmers and dinosaurs alike.

That is, untill a huge, freak dust storm lsting a week blasted the place flat.

Dinosaurs lay dead in their enclosures. Previously bustling farms have now been abandoned, leaving almost the entire island eerily quiet. 

That's not to say the island is completely dead. After all, you're still alive! And so are three of your dinosaurs!

But you aren't the only one out there. No, there's bandits looking to cause trouble. Dinosaurs that survived have escaped and gone feral.

And there's something looming in the distance. An enemy that nearly wiped us out long ago is back - And it's stronger than ever.

1) No superpowers. You can be reasonably skilled, but nothing too over the top or supernatural.

2) You play as a human. Up to three dinosaurs of any species avalible on EX may accompany you. Keep in mind they will likely be malnourished and weak due to the lack of food and water. 

3) Carnivores can be a bit smarter than dogs. We'll say that they can be trained and may have a very basic undersanding of human speech, but they can't talk or use human technology. Herbivores should be considerably less intelligent than this, comparable to horses.

4) No killing other player's characters without permission. One human character per person.

5) You can have reasonable supplies. A couple of knives, a packpack and a water filter, the like, but be reasonable about it. You were forced to abandon your farm in a short amount of time and would only have had time to grab a few supplies, and since you have to travel constantly in search of food and water you have to travel somewhat light. Be realistic. 

Please describe the dinosaurs your character travels with, the supplies they carry, and a little of your farm's history in your character profile.

Have fun with this one, guys.
