A huge bipedal herbivorous dinosaur with a prominent head crest and a beaked mouth.

The Tsintaosaurus is an extinct hadrosaurid dinosaur from the Cretaceous era. They are very large, with their adult size being exactly that of a draltha, or slightly larger than a male gigantic tortoise. They can be trained into being exotic pets and war animals, and can be found in the wild in groups between 3 to 5. Elves can use them as trading animals, and can handle extreme amounts of weight due to their size, allowing the player to trade away very heavy items with ease.

D4Dwarf.png This article or section has been rated D for Dwarf. It may include witty humour, not-so-witty humour, bad humour, in-jokes, pop culture references, and references to the Bay12 forums. Don't believe everything you read, and if you miss some of the references, don't worry. It was inevitable.


Despite its superficial shape leading some foolish dwarves to assume otherwise, severing a tsintaosaurus's crest in combat will not in fact trigger the "gelding strike" announcement.
