Dinaurian

Dinaurians are a sapient dinosauroid species from a long destroyed planet.

Apperance
In their normal state, Dinaurians appear generally human with some reptilian features such as tails and vaguely theropod-like legs(below the knee, the leg curves backwards slightly). Their skin tone is always a shade of blue and all boast two colored markings on their face which can be practically any color. Their hair colors are typically pink, blue, white, red, or purple. Dinaurians always have yellow eyes with green pupils.

In their dinosaur forms, Dinaurians maintain their skin color while their hair changes shape and moves to the top and back of the head and occasionally along the spine. Any clothing they are wearing reshapes to fit their new forms and seemingly merge into their skin as a pattern rather than external clothing.

Their dinosaur forms can resemble nearly any species in the theropoda suborder though they always boast significant differences in hair placement, eye shape, horns, spikes/spines/fins, and size.

History
Their planet's history is generally lost to time, all that is known is that their king and a few subordinates escaped. It was later discovered that a substantial number of Dinaurians had escaped due to being off world at the time or managing to get into escape ships before the destruction of the planet.

The kings lineage has survived in King Dynal XVI, who attempted to exterminate all life on earth in order to create a new homeworld for his race. Dynal was eventually convinced to live alongside humans and the various other races living on earth and a comunication signal was sent to all known Dinaurian ships alerting them of their ability to live on earth as well as coordinates to the planet. Earth now boasts a sizable population of Dinaurians as many who received the signal relocated and settled on earth.

Powers and Abilities
Dinaurians are naturally stronger than the average human.

All Dinaurians are capable of turning into a dinosaur-like form with those descended from high ranking bloodlines having forms that could rival a Super Saiyan in terms of power.

Most Dinaurians have various special abilities in their dinosaur forms, the most common being a form of fast acting non-leathal venom.

Weaknesses
Dinaurians only real weakness is that their normal forms are fairly weak especially when compared to their dinosaur forms.

Any weaknesses in their dinosaur forms vary depending on the specific species they most resemble and their overall size.

Etymology
Dinaurian appears to be a corrupted form of the word dinosaur with the -ian suffix. This would essentially mean of or from dinosaurs.
