As dumb as a box of rocks and its opposite in speed, Quarrel makes stupid decisions faster than most dinosaurs can blink. Inquisitive and friendly, she will pack-bond with anything when she isn't hungry.
Having been a hatchling when the humans disappeared, Quarrel escaped from the labs by being very small, and by the luck of fools. Despite her lonely and at times desperate childhood, she grew up to be a confident hunter, a confidence sadly not paired with the good sense of recognizing when it is misplaced. Luckily, she is quick enough to escape from most of the messes she gets herself in.
Although she has grown quite fond of her little spot on the slopes of Isla Pera, she still likes to wander and explore.
Backstory
Youth
Hatched in the Genesis labs, Quarrel never meets her family - if she even had any. She hardly has time to get accustomed to being provided for by humans before they vanished, leaving the little raptor behind in a cage that, luckily, does not stand up to her hunger. Escaping through an air duct, Quarrel finds herself out in the open, all by herself. She quickly learns one thing: while she stands little chance to win a fight against those who would wish her harm, her quick feet reliably bring her to safety. Getting by on bugs and anything else she can catch, she soon grows bigger and ever faster.
Much of her life is shaped by her solitude as a juvenile - she never wants to experience that again.
Finding a home
When she finds the tunnel connecting the islands, it just looks like a very inviting racetrack to her. Little does she know it will take her to a whole new world of possibilities. Isla Pera provides the chance for a fresh start, leaving behind painful memories.
Exploring the island, Quarrel soon grows fond of the rocky slopes with all their solid ground, opportunities to test her jumping abilities, and cracks and crannies to snuggle into.

Speed
Very much not the sharpest tooth in the jaw, Quarrel often gets herself into trouble. This is not helped by her natural curiosity, poking her nose in places where it definitely shouldn't be, rarely thinking about consequences. Her speed has saved her so often that she never had to learn better.
Having been so lonely in her youth, she is happy to make friends with anyone from fellow dinosaurs to interesting rocks, and protect them as best as she can. That is, if she isn't hungry, in which case she turns into a surprisingly bold and persistent hunter.
Despite her generally friendly disposition, true to her name "non-confrontational" is not a word that describes Quarrel. She's more than happy to fight for food, or to defend herself, her meal, or her friends - or even a potential friend, which is most creatures. She even picks fights with much stronger and bigger opponents, more foolish than brave. She will eventually run off to save herself if necessary, but oftentimes returns doggedly to see if things go better that time.
