Notes
To edit these notes, go to Template:The Last Kaleidosaur notes.
- Only spells that target a specific friendly minion will count towards the quest, meaning that randomly targeted and AoE spells such as
Smuggler's Run, 
Competitive Spirit and 
Avenge will not count.[1] - Spells that are cast on friendly minions by effects like Yogg-Saron's Battlecry are not counted for this quest's progess.[2]
- Galvadon's Battlecry allows him to Adapt 5 times, with potentially different options each time. The same Adapt option can be picked more than once.[3] Multiple Adapts from the same minion are processed separately and have a chance to produce the same options, regardless of the player's previous choices.[4]
Lore[edit | edit source]
Kaleidosaurs are a type of dinosaur unique to Hearthstone, with Galvadon being the last living specimen in all of Azeroth. Professor Doyle and Eddie Malone, the protagonists of the Wonders of Un'Goro web series, have embarked on a journey into the heart of Un'Goro Crater in search of Galvadon.[5]
From the journal of Eddie Malone:
- I met this guy—Professor George Herbert Doyle the IV—down at the tavern. He was telling everyone a crazy story about Galvadon, a semi-mythical beast rumored to live in the misty depths of a place called Un'Goro Crater. I think he called it a dynamosore? (Not a dragon. My cousin dated a dragon.) He's convinced that Galvadon exists because every other expedition ever sent to find it has disappeared, which Professor Doyle says is obvious proof that it must be there.[6]
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- "Kaleidosaur" is derived from kaleidoscope, an optical instrument which creates ever-changing patterns in a tube using differently coloured glass pieces and specifically aligned mirrors, alluding to the multi-colored crystals on Galvadon's body.[7]
- Kaleidosaurs are based on ankylosaurs, herbivorous dinosaurs who possessed bony armor plates and clubbed tails.[7]
- Galvadon's summoning animation shows a bright white light getting composed by multiple tiny shards, then finally revealing Galvadon itself.[8]
- This card's art depicts
Elise Starseeker (more specifically, in her 
Elise the Trailblazer version). - This card’s description is a reference to the movie Jurassic Park, including the famous “life finds a way” line.
