Is There A Human Antagonist In 'I'M A Spinosaurus With A System To Raise A Dinosaur Army'?

I get really into the lore for stuff like this, so here's the short and sweet: in 'Red Dead Redemption 2' you have to collect all 30 dinosaur bones scattered across the map and then bring them to the paleontologist stranger who wants them. Once you hand in the full set, you'll receive an in‑game cash payment and a unique collectible reward for completing the set. It’s mostly a completionist payoff rather than a gameplay power-up—more flavor and bragging rights than combat advantage. Beyond the cash and collectible, finishing the bones lights up that chunk of your completion percentage and contributes to the game’s completion list and trophy/achievement progress. I love that it sends you traipsing through weird corners of the map, too—hunting those bones turned several strolls into mini-adventures, and that moment when I found the last one felt satisfying in a very nerdy way.

If you're hunting down every little thing in 'Red Dead Redemption 2', here's the short, no-nonsense scoop I live by: dinosaur bones are a single-player collectible and they don't just pop back into the world once you pick them up. I collected the full set during one playthrough and watched my completion tracker tick up — those bones get recorded to your save, so they vanish for good from the map in that save file. That said, you can always recover them if you load an earlier manual save from before you picked a specific bone. I've used that trick when I wanted to photograph a spot or grab a bone for a screenshot. Also, a heads-up: if the bone feels like it vanished or fell through terrain, reloading an earlier save or restarting the game often fixes the glitch. I usually consult a community map if I miss one, but I treat them like rare trophies now — once they're in my collection, they're mine, permanent and satisfying.

I get a kick out of hunting down little mysteries in games, and the thing about dinosaur bones in 'Red Dead Redemption 2' is that the game doesn’t hand them to you with a big glowing UI marker. In the single-player story you don’t get any special gadget that automatically reveals bones; you have to rely on your eyes, patience, and a few practical in-game tools. Binoculars are the MVP here — they let you scan ledges, riverbanks, and rocky outcrops from a safe distance without trampling past a bone and never noticing it. I also use the camera/photo mode when I stumble across suspicious shapes; taking a picture helps me confirm if that pale shape is actually a bone or just a bleached rock. Another practical trick is just to change the time of day and lighting. Midday bright light or the long shadows of late afternoon make white bones pop out more, and turning HUD elements off for a minute helps me see small details. In contrast, if you’re playing 'Red Dead Online', the Collector role unlocks a metal detector that can really speed things up for buried collectibles — but in solo story mode, there’s no magic detector. Ultimately it’s about environment reads: check caves, cliff bases, river shelves, and the edges of old camps. I love the low-key treasure-hunt feeling when one of those white edges finally reveals itself to me.

Grab a handful of crayons and a comfy chair — drawing an army for kids should feel like play, not a test. I like to start by teaching the idea of 'big shapes first, details later.' Have the child draw simple circles for heads, rectangles for bodies, and straight lines for arms and legs. Once those skeletons are down, we turn each shape into a character: round the helmet, add a stripe for a belt, give each soldier a silly expression. That approach keeps proportions simple and avoids overwhelm. I always break the process into tiny, repeatable steps: sketch, outline, add one accessory (hat, shield, or flag), then color. Using repetition is golden — draw one soldier, then copy the same steps for ten more. I sometimes print a tiny template or fold paper into panels so the kid can repeat the same pose without rethinking every time. That builds confidence fast. Finally, treat the page like a tiny battlefield for storytelling. Suggest different uniforms, a commander with a big mustache, or a marching formation. Little stories get kids invested and they’ll happily fill up the page. I love watching their personalities show through even the squeakiest crayon lines.

Lately I've been doodling tiny platoons in the margins of notebooks, and I've learned that beginners should practice a simple army drawing when they feel curious and can commit to short focused sessions. Start with five to twenty minutes a day; short, consistent practice beats marathon binges. I break my time into warm-up gesture sketches first — get the movement and rhythm of a group down — then do silhouettes to read the shapes quickly. When I can, I study reference photos or stills from 'The Lord of the Rings' and simplify what I see into blocky shapes before adding details. I also like to mix environments: sketch outside on a park bench to practice loose compositions, then at a desk for cleaner lines. After a few weeks of steady, bite-sized practice you'll notice your thumbnails and spacing improve. Don't wait for the 'right' time of day — prioritize consistency and play; your confidence will grow faster than you expect, and that's the fun part.

Sketching an army can feel overwhelming until you break it down into tiny, friendly pieces. I start by blocking in simple shapes — ovals for heads, rectangles for torsos, and little lines for limbs — and that alone makes the whole scene stop screaming at me. Once the silhouette looks right, I layer in equipment, banners, and posture, treating each element like a separate little puzzle rather than one monstrous drawing. That step-by-step rhythm reduces decision fatigue. When you only focus on one thing at a time, your brain can get into a flow: proportions first, pose next, then armor and details. I like to use thumbnails and repetition drills — ten quick army sketches in ten minutes — and suddenly the forms become muscle memory. It's the same reason I follow simple tutorials from 'How to Draw' type books: a clear sequence builds confidence and makes the entire process fun again, not a chore. I finish feeling accomplished, like I tamed chaos into a battalion I can actually be proud of.

I really get a kick out of how 'Age of Myth' treats magic like it's part holy mystery, part ancient tech — not a simple school of spells. In the books, magic often springs from beings we call gods and from relics left behind by older, stranger civilizations. People channel power through rituals, sacred words, and objects that act almost like batteries or keys. Those gods can grant gifts, but they're fallible, political, and have agendas; worship and bargaining are as important as raw skill. What I love about this is the texture: magic isn't just flashy; it's costly and social. You have priests and cults who manage and restrict sacred knowledge, craftsmen who make or guard enchanted items, and individuals whose bloodlines or proximity to an artifact give them talent. That creates tensions — religious control, black markets for artifacts, secret rituals — which makes scenes with magic feel lived-in rather than game-like. For me, it’s the mix of wonder and bureaucracy that keeps it fascinating.

Man, I've been down this rabbit hole before! I remember scouring the web for 'DC: The Template System' in PDF format, and let me tell you, it's a bit of a wild goose chase. The novel isn't officially released as a PDF by DC, and most places claiming to have it are sketchy at best. I stumbled across a few forums where fans shared snippets, but nothing complete. If you're desperate, you might find someone selling a digital copy on niche book sites, but I'd be wary of scams. Honestly, your best bet is to keep an eye on DC's official releases or digital stores like Amazon Kindle. Sometimes, older titles get surprise digital drops. Until then, maybe check out similar novels like 'DC: The New 52' or 'Injustice'—they might scratch that itch while you wait. Fingers crossed they digitize it soon!
