Diplodocus is a humongous dinosaur with a long neck that lets it browse from trees and an almost comically long tail, as long as both its neck and body combined. This tail is thin and whip-like, which is able to strike targets fast enough to produce a sonic boom. On top of this, it is also covered in sharp, strong osteoderms, which match those running along the midline of its back. Due to its massive size and strong tail, all but the toughest predators will take their chances against it, and adventurers should be wary. |
