Has anyone given thought to makeing a temp for the mutasaurs from "Dino Squad" on CBS? I know the show is a little kiddy but the concept for these new monsters is actualy a cool idea.

I like how many have simmilar names. For example all the fliers have the same name and same with the aquatics. it holds them together. Its also realistic that the druids would name them simmilarly. Simmilar thing goes with how most of the hunters have Gen or Helwyr in there name.

I believe I saw a picture of something along those lines done by either BHU or Rap but Im not sure.

When in doubt, check the expanded index (a little outdated by now, but it works for the older areas. Newer things you'd probably have to check around for. For instance, my iguanodont isn't on there, but it isn't nonexistent).

There are some giants around such as titanosaur argentinosaurus and diplodocid seismosaurus, but no members of the more basal macronaria such as camarasaurus or brachiosaurus have been done in my memory. In this case, I will start one. Giraffatitan brancai was once under the name brachiosaurus brancai, but has since been proven a separate if similar species. Ironically, the species that is usually the archetypical brachiosaurus was found out to not be brachiosaurus at all. Despite their massive size, living alongside huge theropods such as allosaurus maximus has made giraffatitan an extremely wary species, and reports of humanoids being trampled by spooked individuals are common on trade routes. Some larger empires have had some modicum of success in training giraffatitan to traipse across the arid, dusty plains carrying supplies or howdahs on their backs. These stats can also be used for brachiosaurus altithorax.

• D&D Fluff: A massive sauropod of the inland savannahs, giraffatitan herds can be often seen thundering across the Central Plains, sometimes interspersed with the random stegosaurus or camptosaurus, or possibly even herds of other sauropods.
  
• Trample (Ex): As a full-round action, a giraffatitan may move up to twice its typical speed and trample creatures size Huge or smaller. The attack deals 1d10+18 points of bludgeoning damage. A trampled target may make attacks of opportunity at a -4 penalty. A trampled creature that does not make an attack of opportunity may make a Reflex save (DC 34) to half the trample damage. A giraffatitan may only trample each creature in its attack path once per round.
