For some dino-beasts, immortality comes at a price. For Sauron, the cost is nothing less than an insatiable appetite. From his first appearance on the new Urth, as one of the Virtuous Beasts, he attracted many believers. All of Urth is the battlefield for Sauron, as he towers into war after war, in his quest for domination! Waging war with the primal titans is what Sauron lives for, for in their defeat is tomorrow's lunch.
Appearance
Sauron's appearance is that of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. His color is deep yellow with purple stripes running along his back, thighs, and tail. Like Tyrannosaurs, he sports two claws on each of his disproportionately small arms and four claws on each leg. He sports massive jaws for inflicting a massive amount of damage.

Ending
Sauron is the god of Hunger. When released from his sleep of ages by the catastrophe, he soon realized that he must devour human flesh to remain immortal. The hungry hordes of humanity worshipped him, but lived in dread fear of his presence. Many humans soon sought refuge with other rulers of the planet. Sauron had no choice but to defeat the others in order to feast on their followers.
Now that he has devoured most of the land, he sets off in quest of new lands, and new meals...
