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 [[Life Cycle|grows]] at the speed of a [[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|fish]].

The Tropeognathus is a playable [[Flying Creatures|pterosaur]] in Beasts of Bermuda. Though a flyer, the Tropeognathus is a resilient creature, capable of flying through storms without much difficulty and even boasting a surprising amount of health for its size, able to survive a few heavy hits. Using this bulk, it can easily slay the island's smaller creatures, such as the [[Oryctodromeus]] and [[Velociraptor]], as well as injure larger creatures with a bone-breaking wingbeat attack. it is also known to not have udders.

Oops, something's missing!
It looks like this page is missing something - or maybe a lot of things! Beasts of Bermuda, despite its recent player increase, has had a very loyal following that didn't require a Wiki for the most part because of how tight-knit its community is. This means this Wiki has gone unmaned for a while now! Fear not, however, for there are still many resources out there while we try to update this site, such as our New Player Guide or the Official Discord Server. See you out there on the islands!

Overview

The Tropeognathus is a playable pterosaur in Beasts of Bermuda. Though a flyer, the Tropeognathus is a resilient creature, capable of flying through storms without much difficulty and even boasting a surprising amount of health for its size, able to survive a few heavy hits. Using this bulk, it can easily slay the island's smaller creatures, such as the Oryctodromeus and Velociraptor, as well as injure larger creatures with a bone-breaking wingbeat attack. it is also known to not have udders.
