Title may not be the official title of the plot

This plot, where Tyrannia was attacked and ransacked by the evil Monoceraptor, came out days after TNT introduced the One Player Battledome on the 20th April 2001, presumably to promote and test the new system.


The Plot

The Earthquake

An earthquake assaulted the confines of the Ice Caves, sending magma into the otherwise cold mountain confines and opening up the way to Tyrannia, a prehistoric land.

The Invasion

War was officially declared on the 26th April 2001, following a boast that "[the Monoceraptor] will crush your puny Tyrannia!" which appeared to every member over the Battledome Events marquee the previous day.

A temporary army tent was set up to co-ordinate the defense, which used to be found here but has since been deleted.

The first wave, released on the 26th, was of Korbat Scouts, which looted and pillaged unsupported until the 2nd of May, when they were joined by the stronger Grarrl Troopers and Skeith Invaders. On the 3rd, a further wave of Chia Bombers, equiped with mud-slinging bazookas, entered the fray, and then on the 7th, Fire Grarrls joined the battle, and 10,000 of them were beaten by the time a 1,000 strong swarm of Tyrannian Buzzes joined them on the 8th. They were followed by 350 Grarrl Battlemasters, which turned the tide of the war in the Monoceraptor's favour. Finally, on the 10th, the Monoceraptor himself, a monochrome dinosaur of epic proportions, took to the battlefield.

Upon his defeat, a (as of yet) loose plot thread was revealed. A rasping voice filled Tyrannia, proclaiming "That puny creature of mine has failed... but Neopia has not yet seen the last of me ... I will return... oh yes... I will return".

Misc.

During the battle, so as to help with the war effort, Kauvara perminantly halfed the prices of her Healing Potions.

The One Player Battledome History was introduced as a result of this war, along with Neopet-specific abilities and the Battledome front page layout was updated to the current design.

Prizes

Every body who participated was rewarded with 10,000 NP, provided they had beaten at least one enemy. The owner of the neopet who first won against the Monoceraptor (who was only described as a "brave lupe") was awarded 1,000,000 NP and "an item of his choice". Prizes were awarded on the 11th May, one day after the victory.
