DryLock Plains
Welcome to the wacky part of the WildLands
I think I have enjoyed my time in DryLock Lake Plains the most. The vast amount of diverse dinosaurs, it just amazes me. My father enjoyed this area mostly for the ore and I fell in love with the wildlife. My tracker informs me that we should be nearing one of the main herds. I cannot wait.DryLock Plains are a large expanse of grasslands home to various herds of herbivore dinosaurs and small pockets of predators. While as normal as that seems the fact that Time Ripples and Time Storms seem to be drawn to the plains more than anyplace else on Tyleth. Most would find this a deterrent there are some who live life to the fullest and call their home on these dangerous and unpredictable plains.
Geography
A large expanse of rolling flatlands covered in lush grasses, with a few lakes and river systems and even more sparse thickets of trees. The views of the sea of green are dabbed with vivid hues of, magenta, blue, yellow, and reds. Tale says you can stand on one end of the plains and see all the way to the other.Fauna
A robust list of dinosaurs that are most commonly seen moving about the plains. Large mixed herds of herbavorie creatures, massive solitary hunters, and cunning pack hunters.

Flora
Not only are the grasses vivid and something that draws in any nature lover, but there are also flowers with vivid patterns and colors with fragrance either bold and brash or delicate and light. Everything like a bright painting with bold strokes, almost as if an artist placed every color with a trained eye and delicate touch.
Natural Resources
From flowers for making dye to the grass used for flavor and feed to the basics of hide and meat with finally the black ore. Everything that the plains proved should be used in its entierity if you ask the few people that live there.- Fertile Grazing Lands

- Rogue herbivores are a rare sight but happen. They are dangerous and in the DryLock Plains, they are more prone to happen from the large concentration of herbivores.
- Big Tex, a so nicknamed Giganotosaurus by one of the Star Walkers on a trip down into the plains. Suppose to be the biggest, meanest, one-eyed son of a gun to ever stalk the plains. Said to be three times the size of a normal Giga. The Star Walker said he watched it eat an entire herd of triceratops and still seemed hungry.
