“All that once lived, here ever lives," said a Pelledrine poet of Dinotopia's enduring vitality of creatures and cultures. Sealed off from the rest of the world by a circle of storm-lashed reefs, the island hosts a wide array of dinosaurs, whose ancient wisdom has inspired the diverse humans shipwrecked on its shores over the millennia. On this utopian island, humans and dinosaurs live together in peace. But accidents do happen. A ship sighted off the mainland was forced by the wind & currents down to the far side of the Outer Island, where it is presumed to be wrecked. Now it is up to a new generation of intrepid young Dinotopians to lead an expedition to the far side of the Outer Island to rescue the shipwrecked people before it’s too late! Well, with that said, for those of you who’d like to accompany us on this adventure, could you please fill out this Character Sheet: Name: Obviously, here goes your name. First and last preferably. And yes, you are a human. Age: How old are you? Do keep in mind that to have a saurian life partner or to get one at some point during the story, you’d have to at least be in your mid-to late-teens. Origin: This may seem like an odd question, but basically, I’m asking this. Are you a born Dinotopian or a dolphinback? Born Dinotopians, as the name implies, are people who were born on the island of Dinotopia and raised there. Born Dinotopians know the ways of the island and the culture of it to a great extent, as there are few who are completely uneducated on the ways of life on Dinotopia. Dolphinbacks are people who were not born in Dinotopia and have found themselves on the island via shipwreck or plane crash. If you choose to be a dolphinback in this rp, please specify for how long you’ve been on Dinotopia. It could be 13 years, or it could only be an hour and a half, the span of time is all up to you. For those of you (if there are any) who were stranded here very recently, we will provide a ‘Prologue’ section before starting so that you can describe how you got here before we start. Also, could you please include a bit of backstory? Thank you. Gender: Are you a boy or girl, duh! Personality: What are you like? Are you timid, fearful, curious, outgoing? Tell us about yourself! Your likes and dislikes, your mannerisms, etc.! Appearance: What do you look like? How do you dress? Etc. Partner: If you were born Dinotopian or a dolphinback who has been on Dinotopia a long time, it is possible that before the main story line you have received your saurian/habitat partner. Describe them here, such as their species, appearance, name, personality, etc. If you only recently arrived in Dinotopia, then you don’t yet have a partner. However, there’s nothing stopping you from getting one over the course of the story. For a list of Dinotopian fauna, look here: http://dinotopia.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Dinotopian_fauna Please do remember though that large carnivores cannot be saurian partners. Motivation: As you can infer, this is a search party, please explain here why you want to be part of our little group journeying into the dangerous wilderness of the Outer Island. Once you have filled out your Character Sheet, please post it down below! Don’t know anything about Dinotopia? Join anyways, Altaria and Clockwork will be here to help you ![]()

Name: Carlos Buenoviento Age: 17 years, 3 months Origin: Born Dinotopian, native of Sauropolis Gender: Male Personality: Carlos Buenoviento is a fairly outgoing young man who is very interested in the outside world. Though his strange form of enthusiasm and general attitude make him awkward, he likes to talk to lots of people and try out new things, regardless of consequences. He can be a bit impulsive some times and though outwardly polite, he tends to do as he pleases when no one is around. He is also very susceptible to peer-pressure. These however, are negative tendencies in his mind, and he is constantly fighting himself about it. He is also fairly knowledgeable. Also likes to help people whenever he can. Appearance: Has thick brown hair with deep brown eyes with a somewhat tan skin tone. Is usually seen wearing a light blue variation of the typical Skybax rider uniform. Partner: Briza the Skybax. Is an average female skybax (think Quetzalcoatlus, but a bit smaller). She is very self-sufficient and precise. Motivation: The skybax corps has sent him the order to save the survivors of a crashed ship on the Outer Island. |

Name: Darrek Fier Age: 21 Origin: Darrek arrived on the island a long time ago, at the age oof three, and was the only survivor of a horrific crash that killed his family. He adopted a baby Ceratosaurus at the age of five, and raised him to be his partner, though no-one liked him due to his love of the theropod. He ran away at age thirteen after the bullying got to high, and took Marko the Ceratosaurus, who was now full grown, before leaving into the forest. He's lived alone for the past 8 years, which he's spent contemplating whether or not to return, but also trying to stay alive. Lives in the Rainy Basin. Gender: Boy Personality: Quite aggressive, very knowledgable of the forest. Appearance: Tattered clothes, has a staff, dark skin and hair, gleaming blue eyes. Partner: Marko, a Ceratosaurus. He is very curious, but is also highly serious, relying on his instincts moreso than curiosity. Motivation: Staying alive (ha, ha, ha, ha, stayin' aliiiiiiiiiiiiiiihiiiiiiieieieiiiiiiiiiiive.) and feeding himself and Marko. |

Oh lord yes! I never read the books (I think there are books, right?) although I did see the tv movie/series/whatever when I was younger. Give me a moment and I'll try and whip up a character. @SD: Er, Alt said no large carnivores?

Thank Clocky for it, he was the one who brought up Dinotopia and an RP, I was just the one who fixed it up into something legit. He also helped me devise the...things, in it. Sorry but I dont want to drop spoilers . And yes, there are manny books, 3 mainstream ones, and like 12 little side ones that talk about their own characters. It was a mini-series or something, I get it confised, but yeah, I've seen it too, I liked it a lot :). Though they are quite different from the books. Alright, can't wait ![]() Well, I was thinking about making Ceratosaurus an exception, since in the books there are Ceratosaurs living amonst people, though I suppose they had converted to veganism first. |

Pretty much exactly how I found out about it. The shows were a pretty inaccurate portrayal of the books, though. Mindless Rexes & riding Pteranodon, bah! (They were cool as hell though) |
