The Mosasaurus is a playable [[Aquatic Creatures|aquatic]] creature in Beasts of Bermuda.

The Mosasaurus is able to grab almost any creature its size, and can further bolster its grabbing capability through the use of [[Talents|talents]].

The Mosasaurus was the first fully aquatic creature added to Beasts of Bermuda.

Overview

The Mosasaurus is a playable aquatic creature in Beasts of Bermuda. It is an incredibly powerful and mobile predator capable of leaping out of the water to reach its prey, then locking it tight between its jaws before violently thrashing it into the water, dragging it down into the ocean depths in order to drown it and thus kill it.

The Mosasaurus is able to grab almost any creature its size, and can further bolster its grabbing capability through the use of talents. Due to this sheer size range of creatures it can grab, combined with the nearly impossible chance of escaping its locked jaws, the Mosasaurus has been well-received as one of the most feared creatures in the game, its power only rivalled by the Kronosaurus.
