Digimon: The Parallel Visage

I would prefer a mix, a la Digimon Tamers. Plus I may or may not want to be anime as hell and be able to equip items for my Digimon via card slash.

Either is fine, depending on how long you want the RP to go.

Digimon- [The Uncanny Frontier]

"Ya gotta say it, mate," the lizard said. "All it takes is your word, mate." The lizard's front paw seemed to become more solid as it reached out towards him.

"Alright," Riku mumbled. He could feel himself losing consciousness. "Let's make a contract, little guy."

"Call me Bruce, mate." The lizard seemed to smile. The air around the two felt charged with electricity, and the sand around Riku began swirling around him and Bruce. Riku's body felt hot, as if his very blood was boiling in his veins. As the sand swirled around in a tornado, a light came from within, shining brighter and brighter until the sand blew away, revealing a single figure where there had once been two.

Jurassic World: Swift Thieves

While my will to write has been sapped the last few days, I'll get a character sheet written up and posted here.

Additionally, while the three initial varieties of raptor are derived from Dominion marketing, if there's enough interest down the line, I may consider adding varieties of raptor inspired by expanded universe media. For example...

Digimon: The Parallel Visage

@JDubs I was actually considering implementing an item system? Like, you could equip the 'Chromatic Drill' and be able to dig/pierce armor. The difference being the items aren't temporary - a digimon could theoretically carry this drill for the entire rp if desired.

@RBYDark

That sounds interesting. Gives me a few more ideas. In fact, it could play into my idea of a Digimon partner that is based on the first person shooter genre.

Digimon: The Parallel Visage

Tentatively interested. I'd be interested in trying something more similar to Tamers. Maybe even work in something like the Card Slash/Digi-Modify system as a way to spice up combat. In fact I can think of a concept with a particular Digimon partner.

Jurassic World: Swift Thieves

I've written up a quick field guide entry for the three primary varieties of Velociraptor.

Velociraptor Variations

As of 2024, the Department of Prehistoric Wildlife is aware of three distinct variations of Velociraptor mongoliensis. While the majority of Velociraptors tend to take on a certain appearance, individuals may express genetic variation in the form of different eye color or a difference in skin color and/or pattern. Hybrids of these variations exist, but at the moment, there is very little information available about them due to their scarcity.

---

Variation 1

Velociraptor mongoliensis "ingen"

Male | Female

---

• Height: 6ft/1.83m
• Length: 13ft/3.96m
• Weight: 330lbs/149.7kg
• About: The first version of Velociraptor, cloned from preserved DNA by International Genetics in 1986 for exhibition in Jurassic Park. Of the variations, V.m. "ingen" is the most well-known to the public. They tend to be larger and more aggressive than the other variations, often favoring brute force and simple tricks over advanced tactics. They tend to be more confrontational than the other breeds, be it towards intruders or pack mates; of all the reported Velociraptor attacks since 2020, almost half of them were attributed to the "ingen" variant.
  Females tend to be larger than males, and it's not uncommon for packs consisting solely of V.m. "ingen" individuals to be led by a dominant female. Males are well known for their bright, tiger-like coloration, and often sell for a premium in the black market, dead or alive.

Variation 2

Velociraptor mongoliensis "wu"

Male | Female

---

• Height: 5.5ft/1.68m
• Length: 11 ft/3.35m
• Weight: 270lbs/122.47kg
• About: After InGen was acquired by Masrani Global in 1997, a small group of scientists were sent to Isla Sorna to conduct illegal experiments, including breeding new species of dinosaurs. Among them was the second version of the Velociraptor species. Given the creation of the Indominus rex in 2012, some have postulated a theory that V.m. "wu" was created as an attempt to create an attack animal. While the original iteration of Velociraptor were known for their problem solving abilities, the second iteration's problem solving abilities were even more advanced. According to files dug up by the Dinosaur Protection Group, as well as reports from individuals involved in the Isla Sorna incident of 2001, V.m. "wu" possesses an uncanny ability to read and play off of the emotions of humans and other animals.
  While not shy, this version of Velociraptor tends to avoid confrontations with humans when possible; in most encounters, V.m. "wu" will chase humans out of their territory without resorting to violence.
  Males and females are usually the same size, and hierarchy in the pack is usually determined by strength and hunting prowess. Both sexes are aggressively protective of eggs and offspring, and juveniles are looked after by all members of the pack.

Variation 3

Velociraptor mongoliensis "sapphirus"

Male | Female

---

• Height: 5.7ft/1.74m
• Length: 12ft/3.66m
• Weight: 300lbs/136.08kg
• About: First documented after the Biosyn Incident in 2022, V.m. "sapphirus" is the first variation of Velociraptor created since 2012. The first individuals were discovered in the possession of an eccentric billionaire in the United Kingdom. Genetic analysis of the variant shows that the breed was hybridized between the DNA of V.m. "ingen" and V.m. "wu", and genetically modified to have brighter, more colorful skin patterns. In terms of temperament, they can be unpredictable. Some are shy and avoid confrontations whenever possible, while others take after V.m. "ingen", and are willing to challenge almost anything if they feel threatened. Regardless, they are much more willing to come close to humans than the other varieties, be it for the sake of satisfying their own curiosity or stealing food from them.
  An odd behavior V.m. "sapphirus" tend to exhibit is a habit of collecting things that catch their fancy, ranging from pieces of shiny metal, to odd rocks, and sometimes bones.

Jurassic World: Swift Thieves

An interesting twist, for sure, but I'm not certain how well being a Raptor is going to translate into an RP. It all but eliminates verbal interaction and reduces personalities to baseline instincts, which may prove challenging to write and bland to read.

Were you inspired by an RP that has attempted this before? I'd love to take a gander at the concept in practice.

@Leophael

The primary inspiration for this RP comes from the novel Raptor Red, as well as a RP on a long-defunct Jurassic Park fan forum. For an example of what I mean, you can listen to some audio excerpts from Raptor Red here and here, and read a quick excerpt here.

In the Jurassic canon, Velociraptors are shown to be incredibly intelligent, with distinct personalities and the ability to operate on intelligent thought instead of pure instinct. However the way you'd explore the world around you would be like an animal. What do you see? What do you hear? What do you smell? How do you fit into the pecking order of the pack? Do you need to worry about competition for food and territory? And if you do, how will you react to this competition?

"Big Rock National Park is no stranger to prehistoric wildlife living within its borders. You may remember the 'Battle at Big Rock', where a family of Nasutoceratops fought a hungry Allosaurus in a campground. While most of the dinosaurs known to live in the park are herbivorous--such as Ankylosaurus--or harmless to humans under most circumstances--like Compsognathus--recent reports from Big Rock suggest that a dangerous new species has made its way to the national park: Velociraptors.

"These are intelligent, territorial dinosaurs, and there are records that they may sometimes view humans as either food or competition. Any and all visitors to Big Rock are strongly encouraged to bring Dino Spray, as well as avoid areas that raptors have been near."

In 2018, dinosaurs from Isla Nublar were transported to California, where they escaped into the wild. While the outbreak by itself could have been contained and controlled, human greed caused the creatures (and the technology that created them) to proliferate across the planet. Companies began creating their own dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures, while specimens from Isla Sorna and the other Five Deaths became hot commodities to sell on the black market. In this dangerous new world, humans and dinosaurs must learn to coexist.

But that's irrelevant to you. After all, you're a Velociraptor.

The humans will do as they please, and it's in your best interest to avoid them whenever possible. But that's not always possible. They're everywhere, always encroaching further and further into the wilderness for one reason or another. And for some reason, there are many humans that seem drawn to you and your kind. Regardless of whether or not their intentions are good or bad, they present a threat.

The only question is, how are you going to respond to it?

Digimon- [The Uncanny Frontier]

Everything seemed to slow down around Riku. It was as if the very world around him was exploding. It took a moment for his brain to process what was happening. A giant, clawed hand had burst from the ground. It was covered his thick, green scales, and the claws were red as blood. A single thought went through his head: Move, you idiot!

But Riku's body didn't listen. His muscles had frozen in fear. All he could do was watch as the massive hand came towards him. He was briefly aware of the scales and claws swatting his body, sending him flying into the air. It felt like he'd been hit by a bus.

Everything went black when he hit the ground.

---

No, no, no, no! This stupid little ratbag! Why had he just sat there while Groundramon attacked? Maybe he'd made a mistake. The human definitely wasn't the full quid. Damn it all! He's got kangaroos loose in the top paddock, but he's my only chance at getting home! The Digimon emerged from hiding, sprinting towards the crumpled body. "Oi! You got a gutful of piss? Wake up!"

---

Riku opened his eyes. Oh God, everything hurt. "You can't cark it yet, ya fruit loop!" He turned his head. The hit must have knocked his brain loose or something, because there was a lizard covered in sand talking to him. It seemed flickery, like a fuzzy channel on an old TV. "Crikey, you look like you been in a bingle. Look, I've been followin' ya fer a while now, mate. You been lookin' in on Digimon, right?"

Digimon? What the hell is a Digimon? Is this a hallucination? Am I going to die?

"You're one weird stickybeak, but you're the only one I've been able to find who can help me." The lizard took a breath. "Look, you don't wanna die, right?" Riku nodded. "Right. Then I think we can help each other. We can make a contract. You don't bite it, and I get the ability to manifest whenever I want in the world. That sound all apples, mate?"

Bumping. Looking for something that's fairly smutty tbh.
