Ecology: This slender, long-legged dinosaur is a flightless descendent of the pterosaur. They dwell in fast-moving streams where they hunt small fish and other aquatic animals amid the shallows. Their steam-lined bodies allow them to run along the bottom of streams and rivers, chasing fish down. Capable of holding their breath for several minutes, the Scissor-head was also neutrally buoyant, and just as agile in water as out of it.
Personality/Motivation: Typical animal motivations.
Powers/Tactics: Using their long, scissor-like beaks, coupled with a fine mesh of interlocking teeth, Scissor-Heads snap up fish with ease. They also pry under stones for invertebrates and snatch amphibians out of hiding spots along steam banks.
Appearance: A Scissor-Head looks something like a featherless, flightless waterbird, with long, stilt-like legs and an oversized head.
Designer's Notes: The Scissor-Head was built around the Large Dog and Small Mammal character sheets found in the HERO System Bestiary. It didn't appear in King Kong.
