Manticore

Edit Page Content

Manticore Solitary, Large, Construct

Stinger (d10+1 Damage 1 piercing) 16 HP 3 Armor

Close, Reach, Messy

Special Qualities: Wings

If the Chimera is the first step down a dark path, the Manticore is a door that can’t be closed once it’s been opened. A lion, a scorpion, the wings of a drake. All difficult to obtain but not impossible and just animals, anyway. The last component, the hissing hateful face of the beast, is the ingredient that makes a Manticore so cruel. Young or old, man or woman, it matters not but that they are human, living and breathing, married to the creature with twisted magic. All sense of who they are is lost, and maybe that’s a blessing, but the beast is born from human suffering. No wonder, then, that they’re all so eager to kill. Instinct: To kill

  • Poison them
  • Rip something apart
