**Petalchaser the Suchomimus** is a fan character designed by frostbite carno. Petalchaser resides in The Isle universe.

Petalchaser is a young adult Suchomimus doing her best to survive and adapt to the harsh and unforgiving world of The Isle.

## Biography

Petal hatched in into a loving family of suchos, and when she was younger she had a habit that whenever it was windy, she would wait for the flower petals to blow off the lily pads and she would chase them. One day when she was a bit older, she was wondering too far and stumbled into an adult allosaurus. But luckily she was just close enough to the water she was able to escape it's jaws. Luckily she survived, though she didn't come out completely unscathed, leaving a permanent injury to her sail.

Along with some of her siblings, Petals is one of her pack's fastest swimmers. She makes for an especially unpredictable prey chaser, as she doesn't always know exactly which way she is going to turn next, herself, making her moves impossible to anticipate. Though there are risks to this, her packmates know to take it into consideration, and she is an asset to any hunting or fishing team she is part of.

As of recently her and some her siblings are starting to disperse for now, looking for their own territories for the time being and starting packs of their own.

## Appearance

Petals is mostly shades of green with darker stripes. The top of her head is dark, with the color reaching over the top of her head, and a small streak behind each of her eyes that curls upward. She has zero countershading on her underbelly. She has a dull orange dorsal stripe starting at her head crest and running down the length of her body all the way down her tail, along with some vertical orange stripes near the tip of her tail. She has slit pupils, and her eyes are yellow with a red rim around the pupil.

She has a bite taken out of her sail, which she sustained from an Allosaurus attack from when she was younger.

Petalchaser has algae and other aquatic plants growing on her back and tail, including a lily pad on her head adorned with yellow marsh marigold flowers.

## Personality

Very social by Isle Suchomimus standards, and likes to be included, even when she doesn't always know what's going on. When it's time to be serious she is among the first to comfort a sad packmate or to understand to give them space until they're ready to seek comforting. She’s Adventurous, fun-loving, caring & protective.

* **Size, Weight & Damage:** Being a suchomimus, she is the most powerful mid tier, only below apexes, and can kill an Allosaurus, the second most powerful mid tier, in around 6 bites.

* **Strong forearms**: Petals can  "1-shot" anything the size of or smaller than a full adult Dilophosaurus if she wanted to..

**Skills**

* **Fishing:** Petals is very good at fishing
* **Hunting:** Petals loves to find new and interesting ways to hunt. one of her favorite techniques is she'll catch a fish, and then set it on the side of a river or riverbank, go back into the water and wait for an unlucky soul to see the free fish and that's when she lunges, having set a trap.
