Manticores (literally: man-eaters) are hardy Magical Creatures whose origins are a mystery. They do not seem to be a new creation or meddling, perhaps they are something to do with a previous civilisation? Whatever the case they are a chimera of a human-like head with blue eyes, on top of a winged body the size of an enormous lion, coated in cinnabar-red fur. They have three rows of teeth, with feet and claws like lions. Manticores are famous for their huge scorpion-like tail with a main terminal sting plus two rows of auxiliary stings.

Manticores have strong elemental resistances, but they resist spirit the least, followed by cold.

Manticores are Beasts and so are vulnerable to Beast Slayer Weapons.

Great Manticore An oversized hybrid creature with a human-like head on top of a winged feline body coated in cinnabar-red fur. They have three rows of teeth, with feet and claws like lions. Most famously they have a huge scorpion-like tail with a deadly sting. Somehow this manticore got hold of a Black Shard making it larger, and much more deadly then normal ones. It wanders from from native habitats on its own crazed quest of destruction. The Great Manticore and the Green Dragon are the only repeat source for the Petrified Wood Buckler and Lionskin Leggings. Each of these are desirable mid/late game items for spellcasters and rogues.
