Temperament
A frantic and paranoid creature, Lamu is noted for her constant jumpyness whenever staying in one place to long. Though it should be noted that this is actually an act, the creature will only show its true colors if it considers you to be a threat. At which point the creatures quick wit, immense battle experience, and natural insight can be easily noticed. Lamu is typically a simple and to the point kind of creature, once she believes you to be a threat, your time is limited with her. Though if you can get a deal with her, she is noted to be uniquely honorable, keeping to her word even when it could cause her death.

Known Weaknesses
Lamu is only noted to be similar in mentality to most dragons, prideful, but with no outright immunity or resistance. It is recommended to attack this creature with a focus of physical damage, while understanding as casters and back line fighters that this creature can move around an entire battlefield in moments. With a flying speed of 400ft, this creature can easily get around to casters and ranged fighters, thus it is recommended to either focus this creature with mostly melee fighters or attempt to armor your casters.

History
Though a creature that managed to allude capture from an early age, it is well known that Couatl have a higher chance of being spotted in the same territory as Lamu. For these are well known nesting grounds for the creatures, though it is unique for a female to manage to claim the entirety of the territory. Little information is known about its origin other then that it is believed to have fed on the blood of Tanarukk after one of his battles with another large Cuoatl. With the blood ingested, and easily finding it on the regular, the creature is said to have slain or run out any other who grew to its size or divinity.
