I thought not. It’s not a story the newbies would tell you. It’s a forum legend. Lyvatan was an admin of the forum, so powerful and so wise he could use science to influence the human imagination to create life… He had such a knowledge of the forum that he could even keep the ones he cared about from leaving.Speculative Evolution is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his admin power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice banned him while he was offline. Ironic. He could save others from leaving the community, but not himself.

Well magpies are under the Corvid umbrella, but bowerbirds would be a cool add on. Didn't know if Pigeons would fit, but I'm not against it if it makes sense. Well, pigeons aren't nearly as dumb as people think - they've got an excellent sense of direction, and they're even smart enough to develop behavioral patterns that htey seem to do for 'luck', for lack of a better term.

Quotes
Spoiler: click to toggle OctoSharkTaSaurus: WELP. HELL-O-PHANTS IT IS. Kamineigh: I was six and I had started having fantasies about this old crone dying. Sometimes by my own hand. YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING HORRIBLY WRONG IF A SIX-YEAR OLD WANTS TO KILL YOU WITH THE SAME HANDS HE JUST USED TO MAKE A BLOCK TOWER. Parasky: No, he's right, they have a medical grade walrus at most hospitals for that sort of thing. Mr Mysterio, regarding yours truly: I'm learning things about you that I'm not sure I wanted to know. HangingThief: An otologist is only as good as his walrus Stealth_Rock: We have a discord for double penetration? Ichthyander: If your eyelids are massive enough to significantly affect the path of light in space, it is time to go sleep. Mr Mysterio: Glarn-Glarn, don't... don't fuck the cave baboons. Kamineigh: They lacked wings. Instead, they went around in modified pilot's gear and beat the shit out of people using maces. Parasky: No! We will not calm down! This is a serious argument over whether or not some long dead animal is in any way similar to a group of modern animals that they are descended from! THIS. IS. SEWIOUS. Lamna: Obvious typo, I'm never going to be popular in Belgium. Trex841: Interesting point. Valid counterpoint. Self-obsessed psychotic rant. Parasky: No ties. Begin genetically modifying crows until we have organisms that roughly resemble those in the competition, and then have them fight to the death to see who wins this competition. Alternatively, Cephalian and SabrWolf could fight to the death. But at the end of the day something will be fighting to the death for my amusement to determine the winner. Yellowdrakex: Is it alright to have an irrational fear of gliding snakes? They're snakes. FROM ABOVE. Kamineigh: See, you wouldn't be in this mess if you began a bloody revolution every time your leaders showed to unsatisfactory. Zihuatanejo: Somewhere in heaven, a very groggy, very confused angel has just woken up and is trying to figure out why a boisterous Australian man is poking it with a stick. Komodo: I'm sorry but in what alternative universe would thousands of zebras be sent back in time by some sort of illegal time travel group to change history and preparing them by making gigantic working animatronic allosaurs? Seriously, why? Parasky: Maybe y'all should move to America, where you can flex your freedom muscles. Sir Spookums: It's a game about children catching super powered monsters, stuffing them in tiny balls, and battling other strangers' monsters. What about that makes sense in regards to anything, mister Kam? Des Orages: Yi qi. Just when you think you've seen it all, nature screws us over once more. Kaminiegh: This is clearly an inaccurate statement. I'd never challenge the authority of an admin... Unless Paraksytron stubbed his toe and fell over. THEN I, STARSCREIGHM, WILL BECOME THE NEW LEADER OF OF THE DE-SPECU-CONS! Dragon: Is normal a good word to use for describing any of us? Velociraptor: I once dreamed I was trying to steal a flamingo. The flamingo was oddly calm about the whole situation. Kaminiegh: THAT'S IT, I'M KINKSHAMING. Flashman63: In its 4,600 year history, men from all eras, places and classes have been entering into the Library: from the ancient bearded sages of Sumeria and Chaldea, to the sober-minded Academics and Zoologists of the Victorian era, to the great warlord Cletus, an inbred hillbilly who just happened to be carrying his AR-15 around his County's Strip-Mall library. OctoSharktasaurus: Well, uh, it's a pseudo-tripedal, terrestrial subcontinental Madagascan Beaked Whale... Is that not obvious? It literally says it blatantly. Holben: Did you not add lamb's blood to your fruit juice and the crushed bones of an englishman to your salsa? It's not authentic if you don't. Kaminiegh: Shut up, Hybrid, stop ruining my chances of time-travelling and getting some Neanderthal tail! Mr Mysterio: Except maybe Canada. If ever there was a country that was hiding secret reserves of powerful alien technology, it's probably mine. HangingThief: If you answered mainly "yes," you are most likely a salamander. Unfortunately it is becoming harder and harder to tell these days. Monster: In vaguely related news, I've developed a fear of my sewing machine. WHAT ARE YOU STRANGE NEEDLEBEAST Mynxi: He sowed the seed, I merely pissed on it and saw what grew. Beetleboy: The moral of the story: never trust a catfish. Parasky: Speaking of original, note to self: write erotic classical Chinese literature fan fiction Bromance of the Three Kingdoms under pseudonym Tuck Chingle. Little: Starting playing DND, took all of an hour of gameplay until a yuri love-triangle was initiated. And no, it was not my fault. Corecin: If this is your first time with a lesbian love triangle in a DnD game than you don't even have to specify that you're starting out. Octo: Oh no now Little will enlighten with the deep and complex subject that is hentai lore. Beetleboy: It shows what kind of person I am that I'm seeking crush advice on a forum about creating fictional organisms. Corecin: I am not in the mood for looking up yuri because then the FBI agent monitoring my computer will judge me with reckless abandon. Blue_Komrade: Excuse me sir I am going to have to see if you have your membership card to the Misanthrope Club. Parasky: Ultimately, by the miracle of microbiology and biochemistry, I have accidentally added an additional month to my brew and created a Bavarian style hefeweizen rather than the American style wheat beer I planned, despite technically not having the correct ingredients. However because I wrote down what I did wrong its not a mistake it's actually science. Rebirth: I can't be the only one curious about what would happen if you spayed and neutered a male antechinus before it reached sexual maturity. Ebervalius: Laws? What kind of spooky cuckery is that? Parasky: Ah see, but that's just the thing, you thought that I thought that you thought that I had said you hadn't read it, when really I had said that you had said that you thought that I thought that you hadn't read it. So really it's Flisch's fault.

I had a couple ideas before deciding on the one i'm currently doing
1. A Future Evo project for Hang Son Doong (The largest cave currently) in 50 million years. 2. An Alt Dimension project that was basically an infinite ocean with Cambrian animals. 3. An Alt Dimension project: A group of dimensions that was basically a gateway to other dimensions, like ours.

Well magpies are under the Corvid umbrella, but bowerbirds would be a cool add on. Didn't know if Pigeons would fit, but I'm not against it if it makes sense.
Well, pigeons aren't nearly as dumb as people think - they've got an excellent sense of direction, and they're even smart enough to develop behavioral patterns that htey seem to do for 'luck', for lack of a better term.
I did consider exactly where the line for intelligence would be, since that kind of thing is a hotly debated topic, so that's why I originally only listed the stereotypically smart birds. The native environments of the different species would also be something to explore, since areas that are paradise to one group might be inhospitable to another, creating conflict within the Flock and might force contact with humans even sooner.
Hell, if I really wanted to expand the concept into a story of rampant uplifting and drop the bird angle, I could include rats, elephants, dolphins, octopi, some monitor lizards and crocodilians-... Actually, where would the line be for the uplifting process? Would there have to be a certain level of pre-developed intelligence to be selected, or could they hypothetically uplift every animal on the planet? Usable anatomy would be a factor, the ability to manipulate the environment, though if they can change the brain that much, changing the rest of the body wouldn't be too much of a stretch.
Alright, I think I'm going overboard here. Assuming I'm sticking to a scifi setting and not going full Redwall, step one would have to be outlining what genetic engineering could and couldn't do in this world, which would in turn make different species more likely candidates for uplifting. And moving it back to birds, that would but Corvids, Parrots, and probably Bowerbirds on the fast track, while Pigeons, not ruled out entirely, but would probably come out a bit differently from the rest in some manner or another.

3. An Alt Dimension project: A group of dimensions that was basically a gateway to other dimensions, like ours.
Read "The long Earth". that's exactly what they did in the book, and they even do some alternate evo (like mini-hominids and mammalian dinosaurs)
I haven't read it since when it first released, so I might be wrong in what I said.

I have a game idea. It's called 'Arthropods'. Imagine animals crossing except it's only catching bugs. Now imagine that 1000 times the scale. That's kinda what it is.
You can customize your character (name, gender, hair, eyes, skin color, etc). You live in a sizable coastal city. The head of the department of life sciences recruits you for a massive job. You see, you have traveled the world and know a lot about wildlife, particularly arthropods. So, they think you are the right choice for the job. However, your house and all your belongings have been destroyed in a tornado, so your very poor. This is also part of the reason they chose you, as you get paid for every arthropod you put on the island.
Said job is catching every known* arthropod species and putting it on an island. Don't worry, the department already bought the island. Marine species live in waters surrounding the island. Once you catch a new arthropod, you release it on or around the island. Due to plot magic and the sake of simplicity, the arthropods never leave the vicinity, never eat each other, and never die. Also for the sake of simplicity, there will be no specific real world countries or exact geographic ranges.
At first, you catch them with a net. Pretty simple. But as you gain money, you can buy more and more equipment such as flight interception traps, pitfall traps, scuba gear, etc. If you have enough money, you can even take expensive expeditions to places such as antarctica or the deep sea.
There are several broad biomes which each as it's own mostly unique set of arthropods (there is some overlap for very widespread species such as honeybees)
Desert Jungle/Rain forest Taiga Temperate forest Grassland Urban Tundra Ice sheet Shore Seabed Reef Polar seas Pelagic zone Deep sea Miscellaneous (for anything which doesn't fit into the above categories)
The island will be split up into sections with each biome. Species that appear in multiple biomes will be released into the biome in which you caught that individual. When released onto or around the island, the animal will wander within a certain space. Some will appear as a colony rather than one individual depending on the species (most ants for example).
Arthropods will have varying levels of rarity. These are
Common Uncommon Rare Very rare (this category is mostly recently extinct species such as the xerces blue butterfly)
Once you have put an arthropod onto or around the island, you can not put it again. You can do one of 3 things with an arthropod that is already on the island. 1. Keep it as a pet (terrestrial species will appear in a bug cage, aquatic species in a tank) 2. Release it 3. Sell it (the amount it sells for will depend on the rarity)
The bug index is your encyclopedia. It organizes arthropods in two ways. By taxonomy, or by biome. In both ways, there are spoiler tabs with labels that you can click to reveal a bunch of arthropod pictures. Ones you have not caught yet will be black silhouettes. When clicked on, it will say "you have not caught this arthropod yet". Ones you have caught will be colored pictures of the arthropod in question. When clicked on, it says some information, including it's habitat, rarity, selling price, the amount you have caught, weather or not you have one on the island, and some real world info on the animal.
As said before, you can make money by selling extra arthropods. You can also make money by selling equipment or other items. You can use money not only to buy bug catching stuff, but also to buy and decorate a house. You start off in an apartment, but as you make money, you can move to more savory living spaces. But there is one more thing. The most expensive item in the game. A TIME MACHINE! Yes, you can travel back in time to catch arthropods of the past. Arthropods here will be split up not by biome, but by time period. Prehistoric arthropods will be released on and around a smaller island close to the main one. Neogene Paleogene Cretaceous Jurassic Triassic Permian Carboniferous Devonian Silurian Ordovician Cambrian
So, what do you think of my idea?
*obviously, it wont include every species, but it will include a lot. I'm gonna be completely honest with you on this, but a game about catching cretaceous bugs isn't going to sell.
If you want a game about catching bugs, it sounds like a good idea, catching really diverse types of bugs would actually make a pretty cool game, but people are probably not going to care much about catching bugs from the Jurassic, and the reason is that nobody wants to care about Jurrasic bugs. the public wants to care about dinosaurs and that, and adding it would make it more uninteresting to the public. So I would probably scrap the idea of prehistoric bugs, besides maybe making popular prehistoric bugs like Meganeura and Jakelopterus really rare types, similar to Hungry shark.

I read the synopsis and i'm sorry for confusing you. That's not really what I meant. I wasn't meaning "like ours" to the fact that the universe that the group of universes leads to is like ours. I meant that we are one of the universes that it leads to. It's kinda confusing, i'll admit that. (Sidenote, I just realized I accidentally called them dimensions instead of universes.)

I'd play that game by the way. Sounds really cool. I've had many game ideas myself, but my problem is I no idea how to program outside Scratch.

This is also part of the reason they chose you, as you get paid for every arthropod you put on the island.
Said job is catching every known* arthropod species and putting it on an island. Don't worry, the department already bought the island. Marine species live in waters surrounding the island. Once you catch a new arthropod, you release it on or around the island. Due to plot magic and the sake of simplicity, the arthropods never leave the vicinity, never eat each other, and never die. Also for the sake of simplicity, there will be no specific real world countries or exact geographic ranges.
At first, you catch them with a net. Pretty simple. But as you gain money, you can buy more and more equipment such as flight interception traps, pitfall traps, scuba gear, etc. If you have enough money, you can even take expensive expeditions to places such as antarctica or the deep sea.
There are several broad biomes which each as it's own mostly unique set of arthropods (there is some overlap for very widespread species such as honeybees)
Desert Jungle/Rain forest Taiga Temperate forest Grassland Urban Tundra Ice sheet Shore Seabed Reef Polar seas Pelagic zone Deep sea Miscellaneous (for anything which doesn't fit into the above categories)
The island will be split up into sections with each biome. Species that appear in multiple biomes will be released into the biome in which you caught that individual. When released onto or around the island, the animal will wander within a certain space. Some will appear as a colony rather than one individual depending on the species (most ants for example).
Arthropods will have varying levels of rarity. These are
Common Uncommon Rare Very rare (this category is mostly recently extinct species such as the xerces blue butterfly)
Once you have put an arthropod onto or around the island, you can not put it again. You can do one of 3 things with an arthropod that is already on the island. 1. Keep it as a pet (terrestrial species will appear in a bug cage, aquatic species in a tank) 2. Release it 3. Sell it (the amount it sells for will depend on the rarity)
The bug index is your encyclopedia. It organizes arthropods in two ways. By taxonomy, or by biome. In both ways, there are spoiler tabs with labels that you can click to reveal a bunch of arthropod pictures. Ones you have not caught yet will be black silhouettes. When clicked on, it will say "you have not caught this arthropod yet". Ones you have caught will be colored pictures of the arthropod in question. When clicked on, it says some information, including it's habitat, rarity, selling price, the amount you have caught, weather or not you have one on the island, and some real world info on the animal.
As said before, you can make money by selling extra arthropods. You can also make money by selling equipment or other items. You can use money not only to buy bug catching stuff, but also to buy and decorate a house. You start off in an apartment, but as you make money, you can move to more savory living spaces. But there is one more thing. The most expensive item in the game. A TIME MACHINE! Yes, you can travel back in time to catch arthropods of the past. Arthropods here will be split up not by biome, but by time period. Prehistoric arthropods will be released on and around a smaller island close to the main one. Neogene Paleogene Cretaceous Jurassic Triassic Permian Carboniferous Devonian Silurian Ordovician Cambrian
So, what do you think of my idea?
*obviously, it wont include every species, but it will include a lot.
I'm gonna be completely honest with you on this, but a game about catching cretaceous bugs isn't going to sell. If you want a game about catching bugs, it sounds like a good idea, catching really diverse types of bugs would actually make a pretty cool game, but people are probably not going to care much about catching bugs from the Jurassic, and the reason is that nobody wants to care about Jurrasic bugs. the public wants to care about dinosaurs and that, and adding it would make it more uninteresting to the public. So I would probably scrap the idea of prehistoric bugs, besides maybe making popular prehistoric bugs like Meganeura and Jakelopterus really rare types, similar to Hungry shark. Prehistoric bugs aren't the main focus of the game though, modern ones are. The time machine is an additional feature for those who want to go the extra mile. Plus, even if most prehistoric arthropods are really obscure, how exactly will that actively deter people from getting the game, should it exist?
Plus, it's not like this game only appeals to people of my sort. A casual person can still get a lot of joy out of collecting things, while learning some interesting things on the way.

Projects Punga: A terraformed world with no vertebrates Last one crawling: The last arthropod
ARTH-6810: A world without vertebrates (It's ded, but you can still read I guess)
Potential ideas- Swamp world: A world covered in lakes, with the largest being caspian sized. Nematozoic: After a mass extinction of ultimate proportions, a single species of nematode is the only surviving animal. Tri-devonian: A devonian like ecosystem with holocene species on three different continents.
Quotes "Arthropod respiratory systems aren't really "inefficient", they're just better suited to their body size. It would be quite inefficient for a tiny creature that can easily get all the oxygen it needs through passive diffusion to have a respiratory system that wastes energy on muscles that pump air into sacs. (Hence why lungless salamanders, uniquely miniscule and hyperabundant tetrapods, have ditched their lungs in favor of breathing with their skin and buccal mucous membranes.) But large, active insects already use muscles to pump air in and out of their spiracles, and I don't see why their tracheae couldn't develop pseudo- lungs if other conditions pressured them to grow larger."-HangingTheif
"Considering the lifespans of modern non- insect arthropods (decade-old old millipedes, 50 year old tarantulas, 100+ year old lobsters) I wouldn't be surprised if Arthropleura had a lifespan exceeding that of a large testudine"-HangingTheif
"Humans have a tribal mindset and it's not alien for tribes to war on each other. I mean, look at the atrocities chimpanzee tribes do to each other. Most of people's groupings and big conflicts in history are directly or obliquely manifestations of this tribal mindset."-Sceynyos-yis

So I have a few ideas at the moment:
An alternate timeline where the stereotype "Australia, where everything wants to kill you" is a perfect description of the native life. The continent is so dangerous that no one lives there except aboriginals and a few hardened bushmen. Would include cryptids like drops bears, bunyips and Burrunjor, as well as many completely new and original creatures like the Tanami Monster. Would probably be a community project, allowing everyone to submit creatures. It would certainly be soft spec. Not sure if I'll do this one, I'm fine with someone else picking this up if they would like to (I would undoubtedly submit a few creatures. I've got dibs on Burrunjor!).
Instead of heading straight north, Sahul heads east (although moves north to early Miocene levels). The continent is still joined and covered in moist forest. Many groups of animals that existed in Australia during the Miocene in our world still exist in the Holocene as a result. Will probably do this one sometime in the future.
There's a lot of lesser K-Pg extinction projects, but what about a harsher one? In this scenario the the asteroid is 4 kilometers wider (that's 14 kilometers wide) and has a much greater effect, similar to the Permian extinction. A few lizards, turtles, frogs, a bird and a mammal are the only tetrapod survivors. I really like this one, but it's only in it's very beginning stages of planning.

Reverse world where vertebrates are small and degenerate, and invertebrates are the dominant megafauna. think tiny, insect sized amphibians and squamates, and giant terrestrial polychaetes and pelagic chaetognaths hunting them.

Quotes
Spoiler: click to toggle OctoSharkTaSaurus: WELP. HELL-O-PHANTS IT IS. Kamineigh: I was six and I had started having fantasies about this old crone dying. Sometimes by my own hand. YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING HORRIBLY WRONG IF A SIX-YEAR OLD WANTS TO KILL YOU WITH THE SAME HANDS HE JUST USED TO MAKE A BLOCK TOWER. Parasky: No, he's right, they have a medical grade walrus at most hospitals for that sort of thing. Mr Mysterio, regarding yours truly: I'm learning things about you that I'm not sure I wanted to know. HangingThief: An otologist is only as good as his walrus Stealth_Rock: We have a discord for double penetration? Ichthyander: If your eyelids are massive enough to significantly affect the path of light in space, it is time to go sleep. Mr Mysterio: Glarn-Glarn, don't... don't fuck the cave baboons. Kamineigh: They lacked wings. Instead, they went around in modified pilot's gear and beat the shit out of people using maces. Parasky: No! We will not calm down! This is a serious argument over whether or not some long dead animal is in any way similar to a group of modern animals that they are descended from! THIS. IS. SEWIOUS. Lamna: Obvious typo, I'm never going to be popular in Belgium. Trex841: Interesting point. Valid counterpoint. Self-obsessed psychotic rant. Parasky: No ties. Begin genetically modifying crows until we have organisms that roughly resemble those in the competition, and then have them fight to the death to see who wins this competition. Alternatively, Cephalian and SabrWolf could fight to the death. But at the end of the day something will be fighting to the death for my amusement to determine the winner. Yellowdrakex: Is it alright to have an irrational fear of gliding snakes? They're snakes. FROM ABOVE. Kamineigh: See, you wouldn't be in this mess if you began a bloody revolution every time your leaders showed to unsatisfactory. Zihuatanejo: Somewhere in heaven, a very groggy, very confused angel has just woken up and is trying to figure out why a boisterous Australian man is poking it with a stick. Komodo: I'm sorry but in what alternative universe would thousands of zebras be sent back in time by some sort of illegal time travel group to change history and preparing them by making gigantic working animatronic allosaurs? Seriously, why? Parasky: Maybe y'all should move to America, where you can flex your freedom muscles. Sir Spookums: It's a game about children catching super powered monsters, stuffing them in tiny balls, and battling other strangers' monsters. What about that makes sense in regards to anything, mister Kam? Des Orages: Yi qi. Just when you think you've seen it all, nature screws us over once more. Kaminiegh: This is clearly an inaccurate statement. I'd never challenge the authority of an admin... Unless Paraksytron stubbed his toe and fell over. THEN I, STARSCREIGHM, WILL BECOME THE NEW LEADER OF OF THE DE-SPECU-CONS! Dragon: Is normal a good word to use for describing any of us? Velociraptor: I once dreamed I was trying to steal a flamingo. The flamingo was oddly calm about the whole situation. Kaminiegh: THAT'S IT, I'M KINKSHAMING. Flashman63: In its 4,600 year history, men from all eras, places and classes have been entering into the Library: from the ancient bearded sages of Sumeria and Chaldea, to the sober-minded Academics and Zoologists of the Victorian era, to the great warlord Cletus, an inbred hillbilly who just happened to be carrying his AR-15 around his County's Strip-Mall library. OctoSharktasaurus: Well, uh, it's a pseudo-tripedal, terrestrial subcontinental Madagascan Beaked Whale... Is that not obvious? It literally says it blatantly. Holben: Did you not add lamb's blood to your fruit juice and the crushed bones of an englishman to your salsa? It's not authentic if you don't. Kaminiegh: Shut up, Hybrid, stop ruining my chances of time-travelling and getting some Neanderthal tail! Mr Mysterio: Except maybe Canada. If ever there was a country that was hiding secret reserves of powerful alien technology, it's probably mine. HangingThief: If you answered mainly "yes," you are most likely a salamander. Unfortunately it is becoming harder and harder to tell these days. Monster: In vaguely related news, I've developed a fear of my sewing machine. WHAT ARE YOU STRANGE NEEDLEBEAST Mynxi: He sowed the seed, I merely pissed on it and saw what grew. Beetleboy: The moral of the story: never trust a catfish. Parasky: Speaking of original, note to self: write erotic classical Chinese literature fan fiction Bromance of the Three Kingdoms under pseudonym Tuck Chingle. Little: Starting playing DND, took all of an hour of gameplay until a yuri love-triangle was initiated. And no, it was not my fault. Corecin: If this is your first time with a lesbian love triangle in a DnD game than you don't even have to specify that you're starting out. Octo: Oh no now Little will enlighten with the deep and complex subject that is hentai lore. Beetleboy: It shows what kind of person I am that I'm seeking crush advice on a forum about creating fictional organisms. Corecin: I am not in the mood for looking up yuri because then the FBI agent monitoring my computer will judge me with reckless abandon. Blue_Komrade: Excuse me sir I am going to have to see if you have your membership card to the Misanthrope Club. Parasky: Ultimately, by the miracle of microbiology and biochemistry, I have accidentally added an additional month to my brew and created a Bavarian style hefeweizen rather than the American style wheat beer I planned, despite technically not having the correct ingredients. However because I wrote down what I did wrong its not a mistake it's actually science. Rebirth: I can't be the only one curious about what would happen if you spayed and neutered a male antechinus before it reached sexual maturity. Ebervalius: Laws? What kind of spooky cuckery is that? Parasky: Ah see, but that's just the thing, you thought that I thought that you thought that I had said you hadn't read it, when really I had said that you had said that you thought that I thought that you hadn't read it. So really it's Flisch's fault.

Since the Burrunjor is supposed to be a Tyrannosaur, I think this guy fits the bill. it's gigantic, scary, bulky, has tiny arms, has emu like feet, and it's head shape is somewhat similar to Trex, while being an herbivore.

Good idea, but to be honest I'm pretty sure I'll make Burrunjor a theropod. While it may seem like an obvious and unoriginal turn, there are already legends of giant birds around the country and I want Burrunjor to stand out, just like he does in real life. As for what type of theropod, no, not a tyrannosaur, he'll be a megaraptorid descendant.

I second this, but I must suggest something. Having vertebrates bet tiny while having every single other animal group become megafauna seems a little to unrealistic. I suggest picking one group of "invertebrates".
