Overview

The Velociraptor is a playable carnivorous in Beasts of Bermuda. It is one of the smallest playable creatures in the game, rivaled only by the currently unreleased Oryctodromeus

The small stature of the Velociraptor gives it a plethora of advantages, such as squeezing through rocks, surviving immensely high falls, climbing trees, and most importantly, staying hidden. It can also jump at incredibly heights: the highest of all creatures, and is able even to control the direction of its jump while in mid-air, allowing it to almost glide in the direction it chooses. Its high stamina pool (a full grown possessing 150) most definitely compliments its jumping.

Oftentimes, it is interpreted as a weak and skittish carnivore, but it is deceptively one of the strongest. Such small size allows the Velociraptor to dodge attacks and bite its targets with incredible agility. With enough careful practice, a single Velociraptor can kill creatures as large as a Tyrannosaurus_rex!
