Biography[]
Rudy was a Giant apex predator feared by all creatures in the Dino World. When Buck arrived into Dino World, Rudy emerged from the shadowy jungles and attacked Buck, only succeeding in slashing out the weasel's right eye and swallowed him. But Buck escapes through his throat and knocking out one of Rudy's teeth as he did. Buck used the tooth as a weapon from there on and the encounter left Rudy to reoccur in Buck's dreams and thoughts continuously.
Rudy altered Buck to his presence and emerged from the cave before the mammals. With a roar, Rudy moved forward, snapping his jaws to attack the mammals. With that, Rudy cornered them all before Buck called out to him, brandishing his tooth. Recalling how Buck had taken his tooth, Rudy moved forward to attack the weasel and chased him, pinning him down to the ground with his claw. Buck escaped but Rudy slammed his tail onto the ground, flinging Buck into the air and towards his mouth, when Diego reached the underground of dinosaur, saved Buck at the last minute, pulling him away from Rudy. With that, Buck scattered a swarm of giant flying insects, which clouded Rudy's face as Buck and the mammals worked together to tie up Rudy with a number of vines, bringing him down to the ground, stunned and tied. But Rudy broke free of the vines and moved forward to attack Sid, but was stopped by Momma Dino, and fell down the cliffs. After this event, he was ridden by Buck, it is unknown what became of him later on.
Overview[]
Rudy was vicious, fearsome, ill-tempered, vengeful, relentless and hostile. He was a giant Baryonyx that had pursued the weasel named Buck in the past, his attempts having left a lasting impression on Buck, who had since revered Rudy as a worthy opponent. Because of this rivalry with Buck, he showed great hostility towards him.
Like other dinosaurs, Rudy didn't speak the language of other animals, though he had no need to, as he could easily be read by his actions and the expressions on his face. He eyed all other creatures that he encountered as prey. Extremely vicious in nature, Rudy was constantly on the hunt and quick to attack others. Few creatures were brave enough to attack Rudy, though some, such as Buck and Momma, would step up to face him if forced to.
A massive albino dinosaur, Rudy's scaly hide was thick, whitish-grey and tough, and had three massive claws on each forearm used in stunning, or in Buck's case, severely wounding prey. Rudy's eyes, being an albino, were bright red and surrounded by sagging skin, and the skin on the end of his snout, missing a tooth, was somewhat cracked where a tooth had once been. Rudy stuck to darker places in the dinosaur world, usually coming out at night to hunt. Despite Rudy's enormous size, he was capable of speed and flexibility.
Notes[]
- Baryonyx in reality are 7.5~10m.
- He is often mistaken by Suchomimus.
- Rudy's personality and appearance are bit similar to Indominus rex from Jurassic World. Both have temper, whitish-grey crocodile-like skin and red eyes.
