Dino Alligar

**Dino Alligar the Lizard** is Urban Legend character appear in Hallowteens.

## Origins

His past, his childhood, his real name…no one knows of the life that was the child soon to be called “Dino Alligar”. He was a feral child, he was first discovered living in the sewer when he would act like a vicious animal, attacking anything that he sees.

Nothing much was known about his childhood but as a child he suffered from Ichthyosis Vulgaris. A disease when a person’s skin cells doesn’t shed away it’s dead skin but what made it stand out from appearance as the fact anyone who had this had a scale-like pattern on their body making them almost like that of a fish or a reptile with matching sharp teeth to match.

Due to being rarely seen in the sewers these days he was classified as a Urban Legend and was officially named “Dino Alligar” because due to his lizard-like skin and the fact he lives in the sewers like how alligators are rumoured to be in sewers.

While his past is not known; many people believe that Dino Alligar was a very misbehaving child and as punishment his parents forced him to spend time in the sewer and won’t let him in until he has calmed down. But the thing was he never climbed back out, in fact he stayed and his parents liked the sudden peace and quiet they got immediately after punishing Dino that they didn’t bother with their son believing that it would disrupt their time; and then soon they forgot about him and moved away.

This is either a made-up story to make the urban legend more scary or it could be a real story but no one is able to support evidence of this.

Ever since he lived in the sewers; Alligar fed on rats in the sewer like a hungry animal and if he can’t find any he would occasionally wait near sewer drains and wait for passing cats and dogs or any other animal that come near so he can snatch them up and eat them for his meal.

Due to this his role as an “urban legend” increased.

The legend of him being that on midnight if someone looks directly at a sewer drain and say “Dino Alligar” three times one would hear sounds of that of growling. If they say his name three more times you would see his red eyes staring at them and if they say his name three more times he would let out a growl to scare people away before vanishing.

Of course some people say this is dangerous to do as it was rumored that some people went overboard by saying his name more than nine times which angered the monster and instead of intimidating them to make them go away he would drag them into the sewers with him giving him a bigger appetite.

Alligar may have lived as a feral child but he still had human qualities such as still knowing how to speak and would occasionally spy on humans from sewer drains to see if he can find anything useful to learn.

He continued to live this life in the sewers up until his late teens on Halloween Night in 2006 when Wiseman struck his curse onto the inhabitants. Dino wasn’t wearing a costume but his skin disease was enough to make him get affected by the curse.

He grew a few inches tall, his skin became more scaly, he also turned green, he grew a tail…he became a half-man half-lizard beast.

He discovered new strength and speed, can spit out water and even shed his skin like a lizard which was something his old body was never meant to do before.

Seeing what he had become and seeing how everyone else shared the same fate he decided to make himself known to the world by jumping out the sewer and attacking anyone he sees.

Alligar didn’t have any motive for wanting to kill everyone to go after Wiseman, the only thing only drives Alligar to do this was out of pure instinct alone.

## Gameplay

### Powers and Abilities

As the Lizard. So after going through a hard time designing him another hard thing to do at ffirst was the moves; i was like "Oh boy another up-close physical character, possibly a grappler, i can't have too many of these in my roster!" but ideas just pop into my head as i go along, i took inspirations on how visious Alligar is, how the fact he lives in the sewer and the fact he is a reptile; i decided to give him moves cenetered around that and i was glad i was able to come up with some creative moves this time!

* **Sewer Lizard:** Alligar will lunge at the opponent to suddenly push them deep into sewer water. While pushing the opponent down Alligar will start mauling the opponent, chunk of their flesh being ripped off the opponent with their arms then being teared off before Alligar then mauls the face and tears the opponents head off with his own teeth leaving the rest of the body to slowly sink into the bottom of the sewage water.

## Fun Facts

* Dino Alligar was originally named "Dino Izzard" due to a pun since Izzard sounds similar to the word "Lizard" was changed to the made up word "Alligar" to make him sound more threatning. Alligar is a corruption of the word "Alligator".
* Alligar's ending is inspired by Reptile's ending in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance when he finds a Dragon Embrio and through a surge of power he becomes the new Dragon King.
