Overview
The Aberrant Dimetrodon is a small carnivorous variant found in the Aberration biome. It is distinguished by its ability to be carried by larger creatures for rapid deployment across the map. This trait makes it useful for mobile combat or quick resource denial in enemy territory. It can be airlifted by Argentavis, Karkinos, Quetzal, or Tusoteuthis for fast deployment.
