Dinohattanite

Dinohattanites are a strikingly Human-like species evolved from dinosaurs trapped in a parallel dimension known as Dinohattan. While outwardly mammalian, their internal physiology appears to still have some reptilian traits.

Biology
Dinohattanites physically resemble Humans, even sharing a similar variety of skin tones, although they evolved from various dinosaur species rather than simians. However, some Dinohattanites are known to have scaly skin. In addition, Dinohattanites give birth through eggs, which hatch into Human-like babies who then grow in a similar manner to Humans. Any other differences in physiology are unknown, but it is likely that they are cold-blooded.

Culture and society
Dinohattanites once made up a religious organization known as the Portal Guardians, establishing a monarchy and reaching a fairly developed society, while keeping an opening to Earth. However, the Guardians fell out of power as their planet kept deteriorating, and the military took power through a coup orchestrated by General Koopa. The people had lost confidence in the monarchy, and although Koopa supposedly created a democracy and held the title of president, the Dinohattanite government was corrupt, with Koopa effectively acting as a dictator. Dinohattan was filled with crime and corruption, as well as deteriorating due to Koopa's neglect. Policemen, clad in black, spiked uniforms, were corrupt and would arrest civilians for minor offenses, including being a plumber, which was considered a crime. Anyone on the street was a potential criminal, even seemingly innocent old women. Due to the dangers, it was unsafe for any civilian to travel without a weapon. Resistance or dissent against Koopa's regime was swiftly punished with imprisonment or conversion to a Goomba. Clothing often appeared fairly bizarre and somewhat futuristic, often appearing tattered or with an odd assortment of elements, such as hard hats and pilot goggles. Military uniforms, while resembling those commonly seen on Earth, had spikes on their epaulettes. The overall aesthetic of Dinohattan and its society was inspired by the Human city of Manhattan, but were only able to create a dystopian cyberpunk-esque parody of the city. They are also known to take baths in mud, and oddly keep non-sapient non-humanoid dinosaurs as pets, appearing to see themselves as vastly superior to their ancestors. Their military, once being presumably made up of Dinohattanites, was made up of Goombas during Koopa's reign, and organized to invade Earth to take all of Earth's resources. Bob-ombs are known to strike fear into their population, likely due to their sheer firepower, causing them run at the mere sight of one. For reasons unknown, Earth brands such as Reebok and the Union Jack flag are present on the feet of Bob-ombs.

Technology
Dinohattanites are known to have achieved technology more advanced than their Human counterparts, resembling 90s Human technology with a dystopian aesthetic, such as putting iron bars, armor plates, mechanical plows, extra headlights, and a cluttered dashboard configuration. All vehicles bear constantly-sparking turbine-like engines that stick out of their hoods and appear to be powered by some sort of wireless electrical grid, which they tap into using special antennae. Further technological advancements included mechanical jump-boots known as Thwomp Stompers and fireball-shooting guns. One of their more notable technological feats is their de-evolution technology, which take the form of both large devices built into a special chair and handheld guns, which can de-evolve Dinohattanites into Goombas or dinosaurs, or de-evolve Humans into chimp-like creatures. In addition, the technology can convert victims into fungus, such as the King, or effectively execute victims by converting them into primordial slime. Another notable piece of technology are the bob-ombs, tiny mechanical bombs capable of walking towards a target when winded-up, can walk on vertical and upside-down surfaces, and hold an incredible amount of firepower despite their small size.
