[Zabjade]

<span style="color: #00cc00;">Not to mention that, no one is sure if Iksar have a cloaca (no telling the difference between Ro System and Sol System Reptiles) they might be closer to a mammalian down there since they appear to be warm-blooded enough to be able to survive in Everfrost Velious and the upper mountains such as Teren's Grasp.</span>

Birds and platypi are "warm-blooded", yet they have cloacae.[ I am personally happy that Norrath's design team didn't go and give frogloks, iksar, sarnak, and other non-mammalian sentients the boobies.  I have been known to scrawl "WRONG!!" on media showing mammalian features on beings that just should not have nipples and such. ]

<span style="color: #00cc00;">More like mutated than evolved, as the DNA is still there.As for a Kerra female, I believe that they do have visible "bits" how much is visible depends on whether they are a short-short fur or a longer short fur. for them it would have to be a looser suit I think so that they fur gets in the way less, or maybe a boiled leather suit...

My university courses in Paleontology are approximately 10 years old <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> We were taught back then that the dinosaurs in general were ectothermic ("cold-blooded&quot<img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />. I also remember the newsgroups and mailing groups (no forums at that time) were divided in the views on the whole thermo-regulation point.At this time (middle of the 1990ies) it did not seem to me (or my professor) that the consensus view was that the dinosaurs were endotherm ("warm-blooded&quot<img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> and at that point people thought Bakkers arguments and theories were too simple. At that time though more and more were looking into the possibility that some dinosaurs were endotherm or has ways of controlling their temperature, so Bakker definitely had an influence (and mind you, I think his works are important).I remember writing a rather large paper on Deinonychus back then, arguing that it probably wasn't ectothermic but that it had some way of controlling or regulating its own body temperature or was perhaps even endothermic. The arguments were based on things like activity levels and bone structure. I read a lot of John Ostroms works and some of good old 'Bob' Bakker (the guy with the dinosaur renaissance) and 'History of Life' by Richard Cower.So I spoke too soon, I simply didn't realize the paleontology on dinosaurs had moved this drastic in 10 years. But I'm actually glad, it means I wasn't completely wrong in that paper I wrote back then <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> And I'm glad the view on the dinosaurs are becoming more diverse. Anyways, this discussion could probably go on forever. But I just wanted to respond to Wildmage, he made me sound a tad too old for my taste <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />Ok, let's get back to dinosaur bikini's!

[Wildmage]

yeah it was till being debated in the 90s since then we have moved on and are chewing over the whole feather thing and what had feathers and what didn't as we have definiative proof of a couple species of raptorial dinosaurs had feathers covering the entire body.

[Chay]

dinosaur, feathers, the number of exits?i do believe this thread has drifted... i thought it was about swimwear.so back on topic.i miss the "underwear" from the original woodelf and darkelf eq1 models. not to mention the cheekless leather pants and chainmail lingerie. the robes in eq1 were a lot better as far as how they fit (cleavage aside) they were slimming.of course what purpose would swimwear have in the game? other than fun? ps... there are various arguments on either side of the warmblooded vs coldblooded dinosaurs. a coldblooded scenario would mean that for the most part they were less gregarious. however, the warmblooded argument would require a lot of fuel to keep them active.now, here's something to consider. if mosquitoes were anything like their modern day counterparts they would be more attracted to heat in order to obtain the blood meal to lay their eggs. which would indicate that the majority of animals had to be warmblooded. however it is likely the sensitivity to warm bodies may have co-evolved with mammals and birds. keep in mind there isn't any reason to suspect that warmblooded animals evolved on separate lines. just as eyes, lungs, and gills have.

[Kitsune286]
