### Roar

***Titanoceratops*** is a genus of herbivorous ceratopsian dinosaur. It was a giant chasmosaurine ceratopsian that lived during the Late Cretaceous period (late Campanian, 74.7–73.5 Ma, although it could have lived as late as 72.82 Ma) in what is now New Mexico, and the earliest known member of Triceratopsini. It was named in 2011 by Nicholas R. Longrich for a specimen previously thought to belong to *Pentaceratops*. *Titanoceratops* was named for its giant skull, and the type species was named ***T. ouranos***, after the father of the Greek titans.

It is known solely from the holotype OMNH 10165, a partial skeleton including a mostly complete skull and jaws. The skeleton has a reconstructed skull measuring 18.87 metres (99.110 ft) long, which makes it an easy candidate for the longest skull of any land vertebrate. With an estimated weight of 32.41 tonnes and length of 34.45 metres (71.120 ft), *Titanoceratops* can compare to the giant sizes of *Torosaurus* and *Triceratops*.

The holotype skeleton, OMNH 10165, was found in the upper layers of the Fruitland Formation, or the lower layers of the Kirtland Formation. The border between the two formations is very bold, but the location of the original quarry has been lost, so it is not certainly known whether of not *Titanoceratops* is known from either formation. Either way, the formations are both from the Kirtlandian land-vertebrate age, latest Campanian in age.

## Fight with Hylaeosaurus

Note: This contains spoilers

The battle begins with both the Titanoceratops and the Hylaeosaurus wandering into the savannah and bellowing at each other. The Titanoceratops charges toward the Hylaeosaurus, but the nodosaurid stands its ground. As the Titanoceratops is about to hit it, the Hylaeosaurus jumps out of the way, dodging the attack. The Hylaeosaurus whipes its spiky tail at the ceratopsian, but the Titanoceratops blocks the attack with its crest and the nodosaur gets knocked out of the way. When the Hylaeosaurus stops spinning and comes to a halt, the Titanoceratops goes in for an overhead strike.

However, the Hylaeosaurus dodges the attack a bit causing it to have two scars inflicted on the side of it's neck. When the Titanoceratops tries another charge attack, the Hylaeosaurus tries out a new attack. The Hylaeosaurus jumps into the air and curls into a ball, hitting its target and leaving a few scars on the Titanoceratops's side. Both the ceratopsian and the nodosaurid glare at each other and roar, sprinting at each other.

The Hylaeosaurus tries the same tactic as before. However, this time, the Titanoceratops was prepared and used its frill and forward-bending horns to block the attack. The Titanoceratops then flings the Hylaeosaurus into the the air.The Hylaeosaurus successfully lands the fall and tries a new attack. When the Titanoceratops is about in for an attack, the Hylaeosaurus curls into a ball again, but also jumps into the air and spins, leaving a bunch of scars on the Titanoceratops's other side. The Titanoceratops roars out in pain and looks at the Hylaeosaurus, who is about to do the same attack. The Titanoceratops roars at the nodosaurid and runs straight at it. They both leap at each other and do the same attack causing them to drill through each others sides and land on the ground. The Titanoceratops collapses on the ground, seemingly defeated. The Hylaeosaurus stands for a little bit but blood gushes out of its scars making it fall down.

The Titanoceratops struggles to get up with the amount of scars it has but it manages to do so. Seeing the downed Hylaeosaurus struggling to get up a perfect oppurtunity to end the fight, the Titanoceratops charges forward. Because of its wounds, the Hylaeosaurus can't get up fast enough to avoid the Titanoceratops ramming its horns into the Hylaeosaurus's underbelly and being flung into the air, laying on its back lifelessly. The Titanoceratops roars out in victory, panting heavily and having a bunch of scars around its body.

## Fight With Allosaurus

Allosaurus steps up and roars. Titanoceratops stomps and roars. Quickly Allosaurus runs fastly to Titanoceratops, and soon Titanoceratops charges towards the Allosaurus. The Titanoceratops tries to stab his horns into Allosaurus but the carnivore quickly dodges the attack and with his claws, he scratches the ceratopsian and leaves scars on the neck of the Titanoceratops. After Allosaurus runs to Titanoceratops and jumps trying to pounce on the Titanoceratops and tries to kill it. Before being hit the Titanoceratops jumps into the air and flips aiming his horns at Allosaurus the same way Diceratops attacked the Red Raptorex. Allosaurus sees this and steps back avoiding getting hurt as Titanoceratops land on the ground. Soon after Titanoceratops Steps on the floor the platforms on the ground lifts up. Titanoceratops jumps off the platform onto the ground trying to attack Allosaurus. Quickly Allosaurus jumps away and dodges another hit from the ceratopsian. After this Allosaurus runs from Titanoceratops while the platforms keep rising at every step the dinosaurs take. Allosaurus jumps onto a high platform and lands, Titanoceratops jumps up onto the platform that Allosaurus is on. As soon as the Titanoceratops steps on the platform the Allosaurus quickly bites one of Titanoceratops' horns and drags him over to another platform as the platforms rise. Titanoceratops stands up on his four legs and looks around seeing Allosaurus jumping onto other platforms trying to escape. The Titanoceratops roars and jumps off the platform he was standing on and in the air charges at Allosaurus. The Titanoceratops used the same move he and the Hylaeosaurus had used to almost kill each other. Allosaurus sees this and jumps off the platform, and Titanoceratops misses the attack. The Ceratopsian lands on the platform and to his surprise the Allosaurus hits the Titanoceratops with his long tail. Knocking the Titanoceratops off the platform, the platform where the Allosaurus stands rises as the one the Titanoceratops was knocked to do the same. Quickly Titanoceratops stands and stomps loudly on the platform and makes it rise and reaches the platform the Allosaurus is on. The Titanoceratops roars and looks around seeing nothing. The ceratopsian walks to the edge of the platform and sees the Allosaurus jumping up to the Titanoceratops's neck almost biting onto it. Luckily the Titanoceratops stepped back on time. As the Allosaurus is still in the air the Titanoceratops stabs the stomach of the Allosaurus with his spiked tail. The Allosaurus steps back onto another platform looking at the scar the Titanoceratops did. Quickly Titanoceratops jumps and rolls trying to stab Allosaurus with his tail spikes. The Allosaurus watches this and jumps back avoiding the hit. The platforms rise. Titanoceratops runs to Allosaurus but the carnivore jumps away. Quickly the Titanoceratops swings his spiked tail hitting part of the Allosaurus's leg. After the Allosaurus hits the Titanoceratops frill with his claws and tries to do it again, but the Ceratopsian stands on his hind legs and pushes the Allosaurus away with his front legs. Soon the Allosaurus runs to Titanoceratops and tries to hit him with his tail, Titanoceratops stabs his two sharp long horns onto the tail of the Allosaurus causing pain to the carnivore. After the Titanoceratops swings the Allosaurus off his horns making the Allosaurus fall on the stoned ground. The last thing Allo sees is the Titano rolling onto a victory and Titanoceratops has won the battle this time

## **Trivia**

* Titanoceratops was the first ceratopsian to use its tail spike in a fight and the first ceratopsian to have spikes on its tail in DBWC.
* Titanoceratops might have the same model as Triceratops but edited.
* Titanoceratops is the first dinosaur which has many injuries in S2, second being Tarbosaurus
