Overview

The Pachycephalosaurus (commonly called Pachy) is a herbivorous dinosaur known for its distinctive thick skull dome. Despite being generally docile, it becomes extremely aggressive when attacked and uses its powerful charging headbutt for devastating attacks. It can be ridden and makes an excellent combat mount due to its speed and headbutt abilities.

Dossier

Wild

Pachycephalosaurus is a bit of a conundrum. It is a very passive (even friendly) herbivore, common to much of the Island. At the same time, it is one of the most dangerous herbivores that I have yet encountered. Its charging headbutt is a display of sheer physical power, and can kill much more quickly than you might think. While generally friendly, it has a short temper. Its fight-or-flight response always seems to choose

Domesticated

Pachycephalosaurus is an excellent battle-mount for those who want to ride a smaller, nimble combatant into the fray. Because of its particular musculature, it cannot effectively carry large quantities of resources. It can, however, move with brief magnificent bursts of speed, and its headbutt is simply devastating.
