Prompts
The Way of Living
Illustrate or write about your dinosaur learning a technique or tip for survival from another dinosaur. This can be finding food, creating a nice place to spend the night, play fighting, etc. As long as the scene depicts your dinosaur learning a lesson [for better or for worse], then you're all set! Characters featured should be official Primeval Age dinosaurs or NPCs
An Accident
Depict your dinosaur getting into trouble! This could be a 'curiosity-killed-the-cat' situation, a silly or childish mistake, or simply just not knowing the rules of the herd/pack. Perhaps your dinosaur has decided to stalk or hunt prey that is too large or dangerous? Or perhaps they've been too rough with play fighting?
Memorable Moment
Depict an important moment in your dinosaur’s youth! This could be anything from a defining moment in their life to an unforgettable event they experienced. They may remember this moment for a long time, or it may have an affect on the kind of dinosaur they grow up to be.
Kinship
Depict your dinosaur building a relationship with a family member! This can be a positive or negative relationship, depending on the experiences that your dinosaur had with this individual. This quest should depict your dinosaur experiencing something significant to their relationship with their kin. Characters featured should be official Primeval Age dinosaurs or NPCs
Stronger Than You
Depict your dinosaur getting into a spat with another dinosaur. How does your dinosaur react to conflict? Do they jump at the chance for a fight? Do they struggle to defend themselves? This can range from an argument to a full-blown battle.
Food On The Table
Depict your dinosaur having a successful difficult hunt or successfully retrieving a more difficult food item. This could be an herbivore finding a hard-to-reach but valuable food or a carnivore taking down particularly tricky prey by themselves. It must clearly show that the prey or food item is supposing a challenge for your dinosaur to obtain.
Homecoming
Depict your dinosaur creating their home! This could be anything from building a den or burrow, fending off other creatures to establish territory, or perhaps even stealing someone else's home! Your dinosaur must be actively in the process of creating their home; it should not take place before or after it’s completed!
Crossing Paths
Depict your dinosaur encountering an important figure for the first time! This can be a future friend, rival, or even lover that will be a big part of their life someday. How and where did your dinosaur meet this other character? Was it a friendly encounter, or a scuffle? Characters featured should be official Primeval Age dinosaurs or NPCs
