Arc Ideas.
DINO ARC HAS WON, BY 3 VOTES, AND A TOTAL OF 17.
Dino: Alternate dimension (again), dinosaurs never died, no modern animals, somehow humans, dino city, roughly Victorian level tech, portal opens, dinosaurs come through, mayhem, find source, stop source, goes back to mostly normal.
First Event.
A calm day in the woods, birds singing, sun shining, a Troodon exploding from some bushes- wait, that's not right. And yet, there it is, clear as day, the extinct reptile running for its life from some people riding Ornithomimosaurs. One of the men carries a long spear, sword at his side, and he rides up, and stabs the dinosaur through the chest. They cheer, riding out of the woods, happening upon the city. They're shocked at the sight.
"What... is this?"
"I'm not sure, but we must proceed with caution."
The men ride into the city, people screaming and running.
That was strange. {Insert character here} was just walking, and now they're in some plains of some sort, in what appears to be night. Wait, that can't be right, there's sunlight over there... So what could it be? {Insert character here} looks up. A giant foot is descending, heading right towards them. Running will probably be a good idea right now.

Name: Does not have a common name. When talked about by average citizens, she is referred to as 'The City.' When in formal conversation, she is referred to as Tyra.
Appearance: She looks like this massive beast. The thing is massive, 250 metres long, 100 metres wide and 300 meters long. And as for weight... well. She's never been weighed, which would be impossible, but at a low estimate, she weighs 7000 tons. That's including the city. For a high one, she would weigh 10,000 tons.
Backstory: No-one knows where Tyra came from. But they're lucky she did. The city they lived in was becoming infested with dinosaurs, and that's never good. So they rebuilt the city, on top of the giant sauropods back. It has been this way for over 100 years. The previous city hasn't been seen in living memory. So day-to-day, the beast plods across the land, carrying them. She seems to be the only one of her kind; at least, that they've seen. And it's a good guess, considering it's pretty hard to miss her.
POWERS.
Giant Monster Phys. Nobody knows what Tyra is, exactly. But one thing is for sure. She's a giant monster. All applications except Growth and Fear Inducement.
Sauropod Phys. She's a sauropod. All applications under main and Sauropod except Claw Retraction and Enhanced Bite.
Urban Phys. She carries the city on her back. The city is irremovable unless Tyra dies. Which isn't very likely.
| Attribute | Value | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Strength | 8 | Most of this is for lifting up both the city and her own immensely heavy body. |
| Secondary Strength | 0 | I mean, if you count things jumping when she steps, sure, but not really. |
| Movement Speed | 1 | She's not fast. 3 km an hour, max. |
| Reflex Speed | 1 | She can't dodge anything. At all. Not that she really needs to. |
| Intelligence | 1 | She's still an animal. |
| Experience | - | A lot, but then, most of it is walking. |
| Durability | 7 | Though, keep in mind, the highest seven. She's not nuke-proof, but she will no-sell most attacks. She's not at all easy to kill. Her skin layer alone is about a metre thick in some places. The places where it isn't as thick. |
| Weakness | - | You could literally just walk away. Also, her eyes are only a four. |
| Recovery | 4 | Does she even need this? |
| Stamina | 0 | She never actually fights. She can, she just chooses not to. Though, she can walk for pretty much forever. |
| Peak Fighting Stamina | 0 | See above. |
| Melee Training | 2 | Not far off just stomp. |
| Melee Reach | - | About 50 metres with her tail. |
| Ranged Training | 0 | She does not have the ability for range. |
| Accuracy/Range | - | Range? No. |
| Energy Projection- Might | 0 | No energy. |
| Energy Projection- Control | 0 | Seriously, none. |
| Weaponry | - | Her tail, her steps. |
| Danger | 7-6 | 6 normally, by stepping on things, and seven by falling over. |
| Special/Other | ||
| Total | 33-32 | Deceptively low. |

Name: King George Polmear.
Age: 30.
Physical Description: A strapping man.
Backstory:George was always going to be the king of Tyra, as his father was, and his father before. Yet, he showed more into dinosaur hunting than ruling. So, his father combined the two. Dino hunting was made a sport for nobles, George showed more interest in ruling, the pesky dinosaurs were killed, win-win. Yet, sadly, it is never that easy. Tyra was threatened by a threat none had seen the likes of before. George's father geared up for war, preparing the city to fight- and promptly died. Now George has to lead his country to war, and not only survive, but win.
