Manticore
The manticore is a legendary creature that is similar to that of a sphinx. They are typically known to eat men. Manticores are physically strong and have the ability to shoot poisoned barbs out of their scorpion tails in self defense. Thus, manticores are feared throughout the human hearts. Contrary to popular belief, however, manticores are actually really docile. They do not eat men and are herbivores. Those who have met a manticore really know what they are like. Manticores do not possess any magic powers.
