Dimetrodon

A dimetrodon, also known as sailback by the inhabitants of the Malatran Plateau, was a species of ancient carnivorous reptile which lived alongside various dinosaurs.

Description
These creatures bore some resemblance to alligators and were even said to produce a snarl similar to that of an alligator. The most distinctive feature on a dimetrodon's body was the neural spine sail that spanned the length of their back.

Behavior
Dimetrodons typically hunted in shallow waters or shores, much like crocodiles, and spent much of their time sunning atop rocks near these waters. They were generally considered to be highly territorial.

Combat
These creatures were very unlikely to ever attack with clears, instead utilizing their powerful jaws against prey.

Notable dimetrodons

 * Mountain Thunder, a racing dimetrodon from Port Nyanzaru.
 * The dwarf Kyer Wyrmheart was known to keep pet dimetrodons.

Habitats
Dimetrodons were common to areas where other dinosaurs lived, such as the jungles of Chult.

Background
Although looking the part, the real life Dimetrodon was not a dinosaur and not even a reptile.
