Well! It certainly took longer to follow up that last post than I'd intended. I can blame the holidays, right?
In any event, below is a sampling of dinosaurs that ought to cover nearly every dinosaur-related need for your Kerberos Club (FATE Edition) game. I've included a selection of what are, to me, archetypal dinosaurs. When I think "Dinosaur!" I think of these guys. However, with a little tweaking here and there, they can easily represent a much wider variety of dinosaur species (and/or kaiju, if you want to go that way).
I'm pretty accustomed to building skills in Strange FATE by now, but you know what made this even easier (and more fun) for me? Dustin Swede's totally amazing Custom Skill Generator. Go check that out, because it's awesome.
Anyway -- on to the dinosaurs!

You really make it appear so easy along with your presentation but I in finding this matter to be really one thing that I think I'd never understand. It sort of feels too complex and very vast for me. I'm looking ahead on your subsequent put up, I will attempt to get the grasp of it!
