Nanotyrannus Lancensis, a medium sized tyrannosaur from the latest cretaceous North America. While long discussed to perhaps have been a juvenile tyrannosaurus, a recent paper by Napoli et.al has proven it to be its own unique animal.

My Path of Titans OC Bridgey the Apatosaurus, currently in battle with an especially notorious giganotosaurus (who you may remember from an earlier painting).

Having set up in Dry Fang Canyon, Bridgey has become an easily irritable rogue, often attacking and killing the local apex carnivores. This propensity for chasing off the giant tyrants led to her sometimes being referred to as "The Apaladin" by locals.

If you play on Nat Hist, you may have run into her before.
