Ecology: Avarusaurus is an opportunistic omnivore who will gladly eat just about anything it comes across, from carrion to live prey, fungus to rotten fruit. Possessing a highly acidic stomach, Avarusaurus can digest nearly everything edible, and will greedily bulk-load a food source, hiding in the deep jungle to sleep and digest its meal.

Personality/Motivation: Typical animal motivations.

Powers/Tactics: A solitary animal, Avarusaurus tends to seek the easier meal, picking carrion over live prey, for example. If confronted by a foe, Avarusaurus will use its strength and powerful jaws to defend itself. Its sheer size also helps, as there are far easier meals to be had than 26 foot Avarusaurus.

Appearance: Avarusaurus has a long narrow head, a short neck, a body that arches up at the hips, and a short tail. Mottled dark brown spots over a tan hide (with a white underbelly), it's not a particularly handsome dinosaur. Avarusaurus grows to lengths of 18 to 26 feet.

Designer's Notes: Avarusaurus was loosely based off of the Giant Lizard character sheet in the HERO System Bestiary. Avarusaurus didn't appear in King Kong.
