Tyrannosaurus

The Tyrannosaurus, also called Tyrannosaurus Rex is pretty much the king of creatures on Eodon.

No one should dare to get even near this killing machine. First, a Tyrannosaurus is real fast on its two legs. It is huge and has very sharp claws and teeth. That alone already gives it many advantages in battle. Even worse, its skin is so tough, it is invulnerable to normal weapons. Without being creative, a T-Rex is an impossible to bypass obstacle.

The only good thing is, that these walking tanks are thankfully quite rare and with some luck, the adventurer won't encounter one.

Lore
''Tyrannosaurus. Family Tyrannosauridae. The Tyrannosaur dates to the late Cretaceous period (some 65 million years ago, about the end of the era of the dinosaur). It is another carnosaur moving on two legs, and is almost 60 feet in length. It stands a few feet taller than the Allosaurs (or is it merely that it appears to stand taller? I must do comparative measurements sometime ... when I am able to do so without being consume) and weighs four times as much, massing some eight tons.''

''Among the inhabitants of the valley, its native name translates roughly as "Sharptooth." As observed in the Valley of Eodon, the Tyrannosaur is actually a quick - moving and intelligent predator; the natives say that it is in the habit of hiding itself behind stands of trees or ridges of hills and then ambushing its prey, roaring and racing down upon them at full speed. It is a prodigious and terrifying beast.''

Trivia

 * The player meets only three of these monsters in the whole game, and each has to be defeated by trickery, since one blow means instant death. One bars the way to the Urali village and has to be tricked. Another, called 'The Thunderer' by the Sakkhra, keeps eating Sakkhra warriors who venture north to collect fruit and needs to be killed by a boulder on the head. The last one is east of the Disquiqui, and needs to be belled like a cat.
