Indominus Rex
InGen's chief scientist, Dr. Henry Wu, was fascinated with the possibility to create entirely new species by gene mixing, ever since he learned that the inclusion of frog DNA had given the dinosaurs the ability to switch gender.
In 1997, he created a hybrid plant.
Years after its opening, the success of the park Jurassic World started to wane and the investors got worried.
Masrani's Chief Operations Officer described the 2013 success as merely acceptable. "The world has seen what we have to offer, but they aren't in awe as they once used to be. We need to change that. You can't expect the world's greatest theme park to merely rely on the same attractions. We need to be proactive, thinking of bigger and better things."
The result was a genetically modified hybrid of several dinosaur genera and modern animals.
Unknown to Masrani was that Dr. Henry Wu, the creator of the hybrid, had made a deal with InGen Security Division commander Vic Hoskins to weaponize it in a grand scheme to have dinosaurs be used in military operations.
Development of the hybrid began in 2012 in the Hammond Creation Lab.
Upon Simon Masrani's announcement of the creation of the genetic hybrid, Indominus rex, online ticket sales for Jurassic World skyrocketed.
The hybrid could run up to speeds of 30-45 mph with its roar alone reaching 140db-160db, as loud as the liftoff and landing of a Boeing 747 airplane.
Indominus rex had osteoderms across its body and horn-like decorations above its eye orbits, traits that originated from the abelisaurs used in its creation.
It also had well-developed forelimbs from a Therizinosaurus complete with opposable thumbs and a giant sickle claw on each middle finger that I. rex used to grab prey and get in quadrupedal stances.
A single swipe of its claws was able to incapacitate, and several were able to kill even giant sauropods like Apatosaurus.
It was able to change color from the cuttlefish used in its creation, which was used as camouflage in hunting, but also helped the hybrid grow at a quick rate.
The Indominus' jawline was, despite its template being from a Tyrannosaurus rex, very carcharodontosaurid-like due to it having Giganotosaurus in its genetic makeup.
Due to this bit of instability, its teeth often jutted out at unnatural angles and many were broken. Indominus rex had a total of 74 teeth.
With Tyrannosaurus being in its gene pool, the hybrid inherited the massively strong bite force it had, which Indominus could use to even crush a bullet-proof Gyrosphere or break the neck of an Ankylosaurus.
The tree frog DNA, which was intended to help them adapt to the climate of Isla Nublar, had allowed it to detect remove its own thermal signature.
The hybrid could also detect the thermal signatures of others as well, though it is unclear if this ability came from the frog DNA because as no tree frog has this ability.
Finally, the Velociraptor DNA used in Indominus creation gave it a high level of intelligence as well as the ability to communicate with Velociraptor individuals.
Good examples of intelligence being one's plan of making everyone think she escaped and her ability to remember when and where they inserted her tracking implant.
Though they do hunt for food, the first I. rex created was shown to kill mainly for sport.
This individual also was known to have committed cannibalism, as she killed and ate her own sibling, which was the first thing she did as soon as she hatched.
However, since the I. rex who had exhibited these traits had a rough upbringing these behaviors may not be natural.
