Euparkeria (pronounced: /juːpɑːrˈkeɪriɑː/ yoo-par-KAYR-ee-a[5]), also known as runner among the denizens of the Malatran Plateau,[1] was a species of dinosaur.[2]
Description[]
Euparkerias were small dinosaurs with four legs and a tail.[2]
Combat[]
Euparkerias hunted in packs. They usually targeted small prey and humanoids. They have been known to stalk a wounded creature much larger than they were. As a defensive measure, they had the ability to run upright on their hind legs for a short distance.[2]
Biology[]
Euparkerias were carnivores and lived together in small groups.[2]

Notes[]
- ↑ The 2nd edition alignment given in the original source is "Nil", which should be read as Neutral according to this Sage Advice answer by Skip Williams in Dragon Magazine Issue #155: "The nil alignment rating is a holdover from an early draft of the Monstrous Compendium material. Originally, a rating of nil indicated that a creature was not intelligent enough to have an alignment at all. However, the nil rating was dropped during rewriting and should have been replaced with the neutral alignment."
