History

Not much is known about these Raptor ancestors except that they were the Raptors that appeared directly after the alien asteroid hit the planet and mutated the Troodon Dinosaurs. These newly evolved Troodons decided to learn how to make tools and create a language, not because they had to, but because they could. They learned how to domesticate species to gain their resources without costly chases. Eventually, different factions of this species broke off and turned into each subspecies that still exists to this day.
