Dr. Dimitri Lambros

"*I am the key to this whole operation. These beasts wouldn't exist without my expertise."*

Dr. Dimitri Lambros was a scientist of Greek origin who used to work for OnyxoCore under Dr. Jonah Onyx and was one of the scientists because of his excellent credentials.

## History

Dimitri was born and raised in Athens. Since a young age he was fascinated with science. As a young adult, he attended some of the most prestigious universities. After graduating, he made a name for himself in his breakthroughs in genetic research, specifically in the acquisition and cloning of DNA. Lambros worked alongside George Streisinger in his projects of cloning zebrafish. During this time they became close friends. However, when Streisinger died in a scuba accident, Lambros became depressed. Years later, in the late-1980s, Samson Quell approached Lambros, offering him the position to work at OnyxoCore. Lambros abandoned everything, divorced his wife, and started over, travelling to Tierra Olvidada to begin his new life.

While working for OnyxoCore, Lambros became dissatisfied with his pay and wanted more money and recognition. When he heard that Jonah threatened to expose Samson Quell and Quell Laboratories for their illegal experiments, he went to Samson and offered to conduct his experiments if he would help him become the CEO of OnyxoCore, and from this they decided to murder Jonah Onyx by gradually poisoning him.

Their plan worked, and a year later Jonah died from what seemed like heart failure, but unfortunately for Dimitri, he handed the company to his nephew, Miguel Onyx, instead. However, Samson was able to force Miguel into cloning new species, with Dimitri being the head scientist, despite Miguel's mistrust in him.

Soon, Dimitri began unofficially working for Quell Laboratories, and received his own private bungalow where he could conduct his own research without any interruptions.

However, he lost all of this when a mole sabotaged the facility, letting the dinosaurs inside, and despite Dimitri's protests, Samson reluctantly ordered an evacuation. Dimitri then confronted him and berated him for sacrificing everything because of one incident. In his frustration, Samson blamed Dimitri for everything, and threatened to bury him once they returned to civilization, including implicating him for the murder of Dr. Jonah Onyx, to which he retorts that whatever happens to him will happen to Samson as well.

Dimitri starts going to the different labs and enclosures to salvage his research and later goes to the Onyxodon enclosure, and Samson orders his V.P., Victor Martinez, to go get him. When he arrives, he tries to force him to come, reminding him that he won't escape his fate. Dimitri tells him the same thing before shoving him into the hallway leading to inside the enclosure, locking the door behind him, opening the entrance to the enclosure, and uses the feeding alarm to call the Onyxodons to devour Victor. He then goes to his bungalow to gather his remaining research and downloaded it into a USB, planning to kill Samson before he leaves Tierra Olvidada, but in his rush forgot to completely close the door leading to 6 Sinornithosaurus quietly coming in, and just as he finished downloading the data, they attacked him, first biting his leg and hand to poison him and then devoured him in his weakened state, destroying the USB in the process.

### Legacy

Unfortunately, much of Lambros' research was lost. Gladys Quell and Quell Laboratories are very interested in acquiring anything left, if any still exists. Rumors persist that his research was stored in his PC in his private bungalow, but these haven't been proven true, as of now.
