Trivia

Origin

Arctibax may be based on a Spinosaurus or a Concavenator, fossils of the latter were first discovered in Spain. The sail on its back is based on an axe, the icy coating may allude to how ice may stick to metal surfaces in cold weather. The feathery protrusions on its forelimbs are based on fossilized theropod feathers though they also bear a slight resemblance to gloves.

Name origin

Arctibax may be a combination of arctic, back, and axe.

Segōru may be a combination of 背 se (back) and 凍る kōru (freeze).
