Venom

venom is a basic type Piatnitzkysaurus and is a venom fang helper of the D-team

## character design

### personality

venom is a very rambunctious teenage theropod as he constantly tries to find an excuse to hunt other animals as he enjoyed the thrill of the hunt from the prehistoric era, and was very dissapointed when they wouldn't have to hunt again in the human world. but he is forced to go by killer's orders with a nudge or two by yang who is basically like his annoying big sister

## anatomy

as a Piatnitzkysaurus, venom is a relatively lightly built medium-sized bipedal carnivore that was around 4.3 metres (14 ft) long and around 450 kilograms (990 lb) in mass, though such estimates apply to the holotype, which is a subadult. venom has robust arms and powerful hind legs with four toes on each foot. venom's ischium is 423 millimetres (16.7 in) long. his braincase resembles that of another megalosauroid, the megalosaurid *Piveteausaurus* from France.
A general resemblance to the theropod *Allosaurus* is noted; however there are key differences between the two. venom's scapular blade is shorter and wider than more derived tenaurans. The humerus represents 50 percent of the length of the femur, which is also a primitive condition present among basal theropods. The relative lengths of the ulna in respect to the humerus and femur are also similar to those of basal theropods, which means venom's forelimbs are proportionally longer than in *Allosaurus*. Also primitive is the wide contact between the pubis and ischium, a condition that is much different than that of *Allosaurus* and more derived tetanurans, in which contact is reduced. venom's pubis also has a distal foot that is more modestly developed than in *Allosaurus*.

Due to the strong resemblance to venom, the sister taxa *Condorraptor* could be better interpreted as the result of individual variation within the species, and not as separate taxa. The main noted differences between the two dinosaurs include both a less well developed enemial crest and a first sacral vertebra with a shallower fossa in *Condorraptor*.

### Braincase

venom's species is the only member of Piatnitzkysauridae with cranial material preserved, for which two maxillae, a frontal, a braincase, and a partial dentary are known. venom is among the most basal members of the tetanurans and is important for understanding not only Middle Jurassic theropod evolution in the Southern Hemisphere, but also for knowledge of character evolution at the base of tetanurae.

venom's braincase is rather well preserved and shows no signs of deformation. The sutures between the individual bones of the skull are only partially visible, which indicates that venom represents a subadult individual. This is also consistent with the state of ossification in the post-cranial skeleton. An unusual feature of the braincase is the parasphenoid recess, which has only been described in two other non-avian theropods, *Sinovenator* and *Sinornithosaurus*. Given the distant phylogenetic position of the basal tetanuran venom and the advanced maniraptoran and deinonychosaurian taxa *Sinovenator* and *Sinorntihosaurus*, the presence of this recess represents a convergence and can be considered an autapomorphy of the former genus. Another noteworthy aspect of the braincase is the prominent hook-like basisphenoidal wing, a feature that is also found in other theropods such as *Ceratosaurus*, *Allosaurus*, and *Tyrannosaurus*
