Description    Certainly an amazing comeback of an ancient species of fauna, Diployser seem to be direct descendant of Sauropods, a case of convergent evolution. To be exact, a species of lizard re-evolved into a Sauropod, while also adapting unique traits to survive the catastrophic environment of the EPH (Earth-post-humans). Commonly known as Diployser, these dinosaurs are a fairly rare species , ranging from 21 to 27 meters in length and 10-12 meters in height. The oldest recorded example was an 120-year-old female that lived in a protective herd, half of it directly related to the senior specimen. 

 
 Indigenous to the  Ash Island and the coasts of the old Asian Continent, Est from the Caves of Rai, they migrate across the island seeking food. Their current status is Docile, meaning no intentional harm to humans. However, given their massive size and muscle strength, and parental instincts, they must be approached carefully. If the younglings are threatened, Diployser have aggressive reactions that can lead to causing the death of those caught in their rampage. Humans do not stand a chance of survival from a Diployser's hit. As expected, these herbivores consume any plants they can find at head level and remain in herds. 

   Heating system: Diployser adopt a weird habit thanks to the volcanic aspect of their living area. They like to drink thermal water, which ends up filling the small hot spring on their bodies. For a reptilian with cold blood, the high temperatures of the region helps them keep the springs on their body hot, while in the colder seasons, Diployser tend to additionally eat burning coal or hot rocks, anything to keep a body warm. They develop more and more formations reserved for thermal water as they age, but not as much as to hinder their movement. It as been noted for moss and other plants to grow around the springs, giving them the look of a moving mountain hot spring.

   Defensive behaviour: It goes without saying that a Diployser's best defense is its size. A mature specimen is almost impossible to take down, and few are the species that can intimidate them. The spike-like formations that can appear on their neck, tail or body serve also as weapons (they can swing their neck or tail and hit their predators like a mace) and also block bites on these areas. The young members depend on the strength of the herd, however. Sneaky predators may be able to kill and drag the juveniles away from the herd.
  
Relations with other known species: preyed upon by heat parasites= Heatick  , but most regular predators can no longer harm them after a certain age. They have a symbiosis with a species of monkeys which eat Heatick s and live around Diployser's hot springs. Other relations will be added upon discovery.

  
 

     Species traits unique to the individual: Spring placements and types, spike placements and types (pointy, vertebral and ring), body colors, plant-culture or not.
