Belluasaurus

Belluasaurus is a fictional species of dinosaur from Additional Creatures.

## Synopsis

Belluasaurus is a fictional species of Tyrannosaur, whose name translates into “Brutal Lizard”. An inhabitant of Aberrant Arks, this species is yet another denizen of Aberration who has no counterpart in earth's ecological or paleontology record. Tests seem to show it to be a descendant of Alioramus, but that is all that is known of this exotic, glowing Tyrannosaur's origins. Wheras most predators dominate the Luminous

Marshes or elemental chamber, Belluasaurus is the undisputed apex of the Fertile Chamber. It has evolved an armored body to combat against the many smaller predators of the area: from the bleed-inducing ravagers to even the monsterous Amphicyon. Its armored hide is only the first of its adaptations, with another primary one being its serrated nose and brow horns. Sharp, sturdy, and thick, Belluasaurus can swing its head as a brutal weapon to smash through both trees and rocks alike in order to send foes flying. Lastly, Belluasaurus holds its title of Apex of the Fertile Chamber very close- if any other manner of large creature approaches Belluasaurus, it gets furious of the intruder's presence, wanting to protect its place in the ecosystem. Tamed, Belluasaurus are invaluable to survivors of Aberration. Though they may not be as nimble as the fearsome Megalosaurus or Spinosaurus: they are far more durable, and easier to acquire earlier on. Its sturdy frame and power make up for it's inability to move quickly for being an extremely sturdy combat mount, and an excellent gatherer for a wide variety of resources- with its rivalry mentality proving an excellent way to deal with the Aberrant ark's many predators...such as reapers....

## Notes/Trivia

* Belluasaurus means "Brutal Lizard" with caeruceros meaning "Blue-Horned".
* The Belluasaurus was originally in the first Additional Creatures mod before recieving a TLC and being moved to Additional Creatures 2: Wild ARK. It was given a fairly drastic makeover. It has become akin to Alioramus, a tyrannosaur known for prominent head crests, to explain its horned nature better. It's also now more balanced and became a prominant creature on Abberation, as it makes sense for a fictional species such as this to originate in this environment.
* The abilities Belluasaurus has are built to combat a majority of the Fertile Chamber's threats. It is immune from bleeding to have the advantage over Ravagers, and its rivalry buff gives it the edge over Carcharodontosaurus, Fasolasuchus, and others.
* The Belluasaurus has a bug where it's rivalry buff no longer activates properly once you log off singleplayer or upon server restart. It can be fixed by simply making it snarl.
