A creature of unequivocal horror, the Abominus Rex looks like something out of a mad scientist’s nightmare.

They are cruel creatures, seeming to [[kill]] for sport as much as for food, and folk have observed these dinosaurs deliberately maiming their victims but leaving them alive for a time to relish in their suffering.

[Back to creatures]


A creature of unequivocal horror, the Abominus Rex looks like something out of a mad scientist’s nightmare. It seems an embodiment of all of the most fearsome qualities of common dinosaurs: it has a Brachiosaurus’s neck, a Tyrannosaurus’s mouth, a Triceratops’s horns, a Pachycephalosaurus’s skull, the plated back of an Ankylosaurus, the sickle-claws and cunning of a Velociraptor, the spiky tail of a Stegosaurus, and the wings of a Pterodactyl. They are cruel creatures, seeming to kill for sport as much as for food, and folk have observed these dinosaurs deliberately maiming their victims but leaving them alive for a time to relish in their suffering.
