If I understand it correctly, MrDrake, the RP takes place at the same time as the first LBT, shortly before the Great Earthshake. The characters are all dinosaurs traveling to the Great Valley, under similar circumstances to what the gang of five encountered. The gang themselves do not appear, and as far as I know, neither does the main herd of traveling leafeaters (including the gang’s families, Pterano, and other background characters who appear in the series) that forms after the earthshake. So it’s pretty much all OCs, many of whom, I believe, start out far apart from one another, but are separated from their families (or even leave them voluntarily), and eventually end up meeting each other.
Is that about right, F-14? Anything else you would add?
Also, after you start the RP, how long do you estimate it will be before you have the earthshake strike?
