The manticore is a true monster, with a torso and legs like a lion,
batlike wings, a man's head, and tail tipped with iron spikesand an
appetite for human flesh.
Beside using claws and teeth in combat, the manticore also fires
volleys of tail spikes at an enemy.
Manticores are very territorial. An individual manticore's territory
may cover 20 or more square miles. Manticores have been known to ally
themselves with evil humans, provided such allies can provide them
with a steady, ample food supply. But, manticores are basically
wide-ranging carnivores who are nightmarish opponents in combat.
