The finished map.



1. Deserted Plains: A lonely flatland. Some of the major rivers were buried by sediment, creating the Plains. This area is home to dozens of different species of Stegosaurs and Hadrosaurs, but the apex predator here is Proceratosaurus.  2. High Jungle: A mystical aura waves in the High Jungle. It is said to be the site where Jasper held his last stand against the dreaded Ridley. Smaller predators such as Masiakasaurus live here alongside larger herbivores such as Muttaburrasaurus.  3. Mount Kratakota: A massive mountain that was created by the earthquake that killed Jasper and Ridley. Many dinosaurs usually die here. The dinosaurs that live here are only those that come from Late Cretaceous North America, with the exception of Cathartesaura, which comes from Mid-Cretaceous Argentina.  4. Ruined Castle: The ruined Mount Luckyone crumbled, leaving behind the volcanic shaft. Sinraptors, Deinonychus, and hadrosaurs inhabit the area. And yes, the Goddamned Bats still live here.  5. The Swamp: Kaiser Greedy lived here years ago before his army was crushed. Even now, danger rings in the air. Mostly home to Spinosaurs, Troodontids, and crocodiles.  6. Sandstone Seas: This used to be a huge ocean millennia ago. Coral and sea rocks can still be seen here. Few dare to enter the Sandstone Seas, lest the sun dry them to a husk. You can find some Brachylophosaurus, Carcharodontosaurus, Lesothosaurus, or Triceratops here, but I’d say about 60% of the dinosaurs here are Velociraptor.  7. The Mountains of Nothingness: Before, this was the dreaded Blizzard. Now, it is a mountain range. The temperature, while still cold, is now warm enough to support life. Mostly home to Cretaceous Argentinean/Jurassic North American/Jurassic European dinosaurs, like Amargasaurus, Apatosaurus, or Juravenator, though Chaoyangopterid(I don’t know how to spell it)pterosaurs live here as well. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">8. Hell’s House: An active volcano. Every week it erupts, killing thousands. The only animal that lives here is Tropeognathus. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">9. The Y-Knot/Watering Hole: This is the figurative and literal center of the Rift; animals gather to gossip or to trade, hunt together, fight, etc. Hundreds of various species live here. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">10. The Wasteland: A swamp surrounding Mount Kratakota. Home to ceratopsians and tyrannosaurs. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">11. Xavi River: Formerly the Steam Stream, this river runs boiling hot during the day, but cools down to barely above freezing at night. Nobody lives in the river per se, but they live around it. Spinosaurs can usually be found here. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">12. The Boneyard: Thousands of dinosaurs are buried up here on this plateau at the top of Mount Kratakota. Paragon himself died here. Only small carnivores and hadrosaurs live here. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">13. Voodoo Forest: The two Twin Towers crumbled, allowing the Fire Woods to grow at a very fast rate. Bad things always happen here, hence the name. For the most part ceratopsians live here, but there are Megalosaurus and Dilophosaurus as well. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">14. The Sea of Something: A small sea full of something. Mostly full of plesiosaurs and mosasaurs. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">15. The Coral Walls: Coral reefs, just barely covered with water. That's why they are called "Walls". They are also home of Ichthyosaurs and the Almighty...Start playing this in the background...Henodus. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">16. Lone Isle: Home of some seagull-like species of prehistoric birds and insects. But the creatures aren't the interesting thing here, it's the mountain's peak, which is made out of a electric crystal meteor that slammed into the Rift precisely 160 years ago. Due to erosion the meteor was sharpened to look like a natural mountain peak...if one considers an electric yellow mountain peak something that can look normal. Because of the height the crystal is on, it attracts very bad weather--there are maelstroms and thunderstorms for all but ten days of the year. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">17. Flat Green: No one lives here. It's too small...and flat...and...green. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">18. Ravine Nest: A huge ravine where different species lay eggs or give birth. It's divided into two sections--the southern side is occupied by the Outlaws and the northern side is populated by Neutrals and Rebels. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">19. The Titan Home: A very strange place. From the ground rise hundred, if not thousands of skeletons belonging to some...massive animals. They look like a big herd of Titanosaurus, all of them two or, rarely, three times bigger than the average size of the normal Titanosaur. The skeletons are halfway in the ground, allowing the rib cages to be used as homes for the many Spinosaurus living here. Only the Outlaws' side is present here--the other Spinosaurus have gone to Mount Near-Isle or to the Neutral/Rebel side of Ravine Nest to avoid being attacked. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">20. The Geysers: A couple of hot geysers in the middle of nowhere. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">21. Mount Near-Isle: Underwater mountains that could nearly be islands, due to reaching just a couple of meters below the water surface. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">22. The Sinkhole: A sinkhole. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">23. Vulkaan Eiland: Nothing much going on here. Home of mostly seagull-like prehistoric birds, insects, Kentrosaurus, Deinonychus and Pteranodon. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">24. La Palm Tree: An island, just over three square meters, on which is growing a lonely palm. The only visitors this island have are misguided birds. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">25. Another Flat: Another flat island no one wants to live on. This one has some trees, though. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">26. The Shadowlands: Ceratosaurus and Tarbosaurus. That’s all I can say. Many enter the Shadowlands, but nobody leaves. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">27. Leave River: The fast-flowing river that goes through the High Jungle. It is rather cold, but the water is surprisingly soothing. This is because the River of Ice and the Sparkling Creek merged into one river. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">28. The Lowlands: Miles and miles of ash. Very few trees, a lot of ferns. Underneath the ash is a vast mud pit. Dozens of sauropod species and theropods live here. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">29. Granite Quarry: It may look like a nice vacation spot, but the skeletons suggest otherwise. This is a massive predator trap, full of tar pits and cacti. Nobody lives here for obvious reasons. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">30. The Blood Snake: A lake running with blood. The lake and river combined give the appearance of a snake. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">31. Lake Lake: A lake. <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">32. The Nightmare: An extremely deep trench. Nobody except for one can make it down here without being suffocated and crushed by the sheer pressure of the water above.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">33. Shark Crescent: Various species of sharks are found here, as well as crabs, dromaeosaurids, and stegosaurs.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">34. Charybdis Rocks: Two jagged rocks inhabited only by plants and pterosaurs. Said pterosaur viciously slaughter everybody that draws close.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">35. Lake Lake Lake: A lake.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">36. Lake Lake Lake Lake: A lake.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">37. Isle of the Grassy Mass of Grass, Sand, and Rocks that Vaguely Looks Like the Zombot Sharktronic Sub from Plants versus Zombies 2: A grassy mass of an island covered in grass, sand, and rocks. It vaguely looks like the Zombot Sharktronic Sub from Plants versus Zombies 2. It’s surrounded by a massive trench on all sides.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">38. Quagga Delta: A barren desert island. There are various types of rocks on the island.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">39. Flamingo Delta: A lush island with fruit and various species of birds and ornithischians.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">40. Ice Land: An island covered in ice and snow. Has nothing to do with Iceland.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">41. Neon Ravine: The other major trench in the Rift’s seas. It has tons of Electrophorus and Humboldt squid.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">42. Death Chasm: A ravine surrounding the northmost part of the Ruined Castle. Fall into this, you can’t climb out. If you fall far enough, you reach the darkest depths of the Rift, a castle of steel.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;">

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;">We're about ten miles to the east of where 33 is on the map.
