Tropeognathus is the second [[Flying Creatures|flying creature]] to be confirmed, after [[Pteranodon]].  
+
'''Overview'''
 +
Tropeognathus is a large pterosaur, specializing in defensive play. A creature with an 8-meter-long wingspan, it almost seems as if such a monster should hardly be able to get airborne. It grows at the speed of Megalosaurus, and with several unique mechanics to assert its dominance, Tropeognathus is sure to be a rival to any lightning-quick Pteranodon that may try to challenge it! Despite the imposing stature, its diet consists mainly of fish.
  
−
Not much is know yet about this animal in terms of function in Beasts of Bermuda. However, the following developer quote has been said about the animal.
 
  
−
As the largest and most powerful of the [[fish]] eating Pterosaurs in Beasts of Bermuda, Tropeognathus is able to use its huge wingspan to stay airborne for long periods of time, even during all but the harshest of [[Weather|storms]]. Its large wings also allow it to be a very effective [[Swimming|swimmer]] and can repel and even [[Injury|injure]] other fliers who come too close, but this [[size]] comes at a cost; it requires a large amount of [[stamina]] to take off, especially from the water, and is slow and ungainly on the land. As a [[Piscivorous Creatures|piscivore]], it is unsuited to combat and inflicts very little [[damage]]. Tropeognathus also benefits from being in a mated pair much like an albatross or bald eagle, gaining a mild boost to a few important stats when in proximity. It will be the 'king of the skies'.

    -It costs stamina to take off from the water, so make sure you have enough! This can be made less costly with the Improved Takeoff talent.
 +
    -You can grab creatures and items of fairly large size when flying- use this to your advantage! You’re better at this than ptera, so you can grab smaller pterosaurs out of the sky if they’re of the right size.
 +
    -If a Pterandon attacks, you don’t need to chase them, let them come to you. If a flock descends on you however, then you might have an issue!
 +
    -You turn pretty slowly in the air. Be sure to always angle yourself towards incoming Pteranodon to use Wing Beat.
