Not to mention, where does the whole "extinction" aspect play into it all if surviving the meteor played no part in their timeline? Lastly, killing the shaman off so early also leaves no connection to the magic of the Extinct and the magic of the Driver if he has no part in it's creation. I'm completely open to alterations and big changes to the idea I proposed initially, but that just sounds less simple, makes less sense, and causes way too many plot holes.

Phew. Rant over. I just had to throw that out there. Again, I do think the backstory barely matters here and the design of our fan-created rider is the most important part. So continue with what you're doing now. I don't mean to backtrack things.

The belt is technology, not magic. The hibernation of the dinosaurs made them disappear really, so people assumed they were extinct.
