    I presume they're using ye olde definition that just meant "big theropods".

    The modern definition just refers to allosauroids (since T. rex is not an allosauroid, I presumed it was the old term they were using, for convenience)

    Yeah, I meant "Just the big theropods". Paleontology evolves very quickly, considering it's all about extinct organisms.

    So the idea I was postiting was that the multicolored T.Rexs are like that to warn their even bigger predators that they're poisonous. Because in a D&D-style universe, there are probably a few creatures that would actually qualify a T.Rex as a "light snack."

    Can't write. Can't plan. Can draw a little.
