Dinotrux-Dreadtrux

**Dreadtrux** are a legendary and rare species of Dinotrux.

From Dinotrux-the new adventures.

## Biology

### Physical Description

Dreadtrux are quadrupedal Dinotrux that tower over every other creature they come across. They have a long neck like Craneosaurs, saw parts like Sawmetradons and are rock-eaters like Stegarbasaurs and Cementasaurs, they also can eat anything and grow extremely fast. They have multiple tread-wheeled feet they use to support themselves and for locomotion. But these wheels are their one weakness, as anything from unstable surfaces to strong metal chains getting caught between them are capable of knocking a Dreadtrux over. Baby Dreadtrux are also large, some even growing up to the size of adult Craneosaurs. The mother can tell if one baby is her's if it has her markings.

### Behavior

They are rumored to hibernate for a hundred years and once awakened, they destroy everything in their path and feed for months before returning to sleep again, though female Dreadtrux will search for their eggs if they cannot find them. They also lack the ability to speak the common language that most other Trux and Tools speak. Baby Dreadtrux are very playful, and can be disappointed if they have to leave a new friend.

## Personality

Dreadtrux are unusually aggressive creatures, they are usually very protective of themselves and their offspring whenever they are awake. They are also known to have been scaring other dinotrux species. Except Ty, Dozer, Ton-ton, and Skya. Especially the D-brothers. They are extremely confident creatures, as they do not mind themselves destroying and busting through everything in their path. They especially tower over trees. Whenever dreadtrux are threatened, or angered. They usually roar to protect their young and themselves, responding the attacker to chase them away. They also lack the ability to speak like the description said earlier, as they only make sounds and do not actually talk, but they still understand what Dinotrux say. Although they will appear aggressively if a dinotrux tries to convince them a job they must do, they usually respond to hitting and abusing the dinotrux who awakes them. Unless if they try to feed it purple ore. They are always willing to eat the purple ore they like, so they may be very picky creatures. It's also known that they are extremely strong, as they are able to reach higher with their long necks similar to craneosaurs, but they reach much higher then craneosaurs do.

Despite being very confident, and aggressive. They sometimes change their behavior and do what the dinotrux ask them to do. Most dinotrux are afraid of the D-Brothers, but dreadtrux is not, even though the female was controlled by them, using purple ore. Despite being very aggressive and acting evil, they aren't actually evil, they only seem to find something but ignore others in a abusing way.
