Tylosaurus is one of the top predators in the oceans in the regions of Chuult and Arkamata. While its big brother, mosasaurus, patrols the open seas, tylosaurus hangs out around the coasts and on the edge of continental shelves. Tylosaurus is able to recognize the sound of ships full of humanoids moving above it, and will do anything in its power to sink ships and devour the crew. Tylosaurus is the reason why Arkamata was never discovered until recently, nobody ever made it to the island. The tylosaurus will also eat anything small enough to fit in its jaws. This includes sharks, fish, turtles, marine reptiles, and whales. It has even been observed that the tylosaurus is immune to oceanic electric eels. |
