Outer Island
Dinotopia | Backbone Mountains | Blackwood Flats | Forbidden Mountains | Great Desert | Northern Plains | Rainy Basin | Western Coast | World Beneath | Waterfall City
The Outer Island is a large island on the east coast of the main island. Between the main and Outer Islands are several other smaller islands.
These islands have since become linked by a land-bridge composed mostly of reefs, thanks to the lower sea-level.
Culebra is the Outer Island’s main city. As with all major cities, it has suffered some general damage.
In its heyday Poseidos was a technologically-advanced city, related to the mythological Atlantis. It possessed great machines powered by the energy of the sunstones found in the World Beneath. It was once considered to be a myth by the Dinotopians, as the legends said it was ruled by Ogthar, a king who had the body of a man and the head of a ceratops who was renowned for his great wisdom.
In the mid-1800s Poseidos was discovered, sunken beneath the sea between the islands, by Arthur Denison and his expedition into the World Beneath.
After the earthquake, the tops of some of Poseidos’s tallest buildings can be seen above the waves, and on clear days one can look down into its streets. Parts of it may even be within reach of a well-equipped diving team. Some of the damage seems to be recent, caused by the earthquake.
