Animal Archives: DinoFiles II - Theropods

ADD TO WISHLIST >

The second installment in the DinoFiles line focuses on the theropods, an order of dinosaurs that produced some of the most fearsome predators the planet has ever seen. Inside this volume you will find theropods of all sizes and shapes, from the speedy, man-sized Coelophysis to the gargantuan Giganotosaurus, the largest terrestrial predator of all time.

 

All of these dinosaurs can be easily inserted into any campaign, and can be used by DMs and players alike. In addition, with CRs ranging from 1 to 12, there’s a dinosaur appropriate for nearly all levels of play, either as a challenging foe or an interesting option for familiars, mounts, and animal companions.

 

So, if you are looking to spice up the jungles and primeval forests of your campaign, or you just want to give your PCs some interesting options for animal companions, then take a look at Blackdirge Publishing and the DinoFiles series.

 

Animal Archives: DinoFiles II –Theropods features 22 pages of OGL material, and includes:

 
  • Coelophysis – a small, lightly built theropod.
  • Sandstrider – a mutant breed of coelophysis with a deadly gaze.
  • Dilophosaurus – a large theropod with a distinctive double crest.
  • Crested Spitter – an evolutionary offshoot of the dilophosaurus with a venomous bite.
  • Ceratosaurus – a large predatory theropod with a horned snout.
  • Baryonyx – a bizarre fish-eating theropod armed with two massive sickle-like claws.
  • Giganotosaurus – the largest theropod yet discovered, displacing the great Tyrannosaurs Rex as the largest terrestrial carnivore ever.

  • An informative introduction on theropods.
  • A summon monster appendix featuring fiendish and celestial versions of all the featured theropods.
  • Information for player characters, including info on animal companions, mounts, and familiars.
  • Real world information on each theropod.

It might be hard to remember now (or, if you’re one of the younger gamers, you might not be able to remember at all), but back before Jurassic Park made raptors into the most fearsome dinosaurs, the T-Rex was the image that everyone had when the terr [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
