Deinonychus is a small terrestrial carnivore. Small and frail but extremely agile, it can cover an immense distance from a single leap. Unable to deal threatening damage, it relies on the power of packs to take down large targets.
Despite nearing five feet in height, Deinonychus is small when compared to Path of Titan's other playable creatures. This feathered raptor stretches its winged arms out whenever it jumps, and uses its large fanned tail as a display structure.
Paleo Info[]
Deinonychus is a genus of feathered carnivorous theropod dinosaur that was described by John H. Ostrom in 1969. Deinonychus has one described species, Deinonychus antirrhopus. This species lived during the early Cretaceous Period, about 115–108 million years ago (from the mid-Aptian to early Albian stages). Fossils have been recovered from the U.S. states of Montana, Utah, Wyoming, and Oklahoma, in rocks of the Cloverly Formation, Cedar Mountain Formation, and Antlers Formation, though teeth that may belong to Deinonychus have been found much farther east in Maryland. Deinonychus belongs to the cladeEudromaeosauria which is apart of the family Dromaeosauridae.
Deinonychus means "terrible claw" in Greek, referring to its sickle claw which was commonplace among the dromaeosaurids. The species name antirrhopus means "counterbalancing" in Greek and is referring to this purpose as a likely one for the stiff tail of Deinonychus.
While airborn, remain access to the ability to use jump once, can't be used again until landing.
