Description

Name: Barbarus
Species: Manticore [Body type: Barbary Lion]
Gender: Male
Diet: Carnivore/Opportunist
Powers: Scorpion tail has a nasty venom that is fatal without immediate treatment/antivenom.
About: Typically very lazy and laid back. Prefers to spend time dozing off in caves so he'll be left alone. He is neither kind, nor cruel, but does have a short temper if his sleep or feeding time is disturbed. Sometimes scares nearby humans into giving him sacrificial meals (typically cattle or goats), or steals prey from other smaller carnivores/hunters. Being a large beast, he needs a lot more sustenance, but when meals are scarce, he can go into hibernation to save energy.
Physical features: 2 black oryx-style horns, 2 red ram style horns on head. Horns are always growing, so sometimes they'll be shorter or longer depending on growth cycle. Cavern walls he resides in are usually covered in scratch marks, since he uses the rock to file his horns when they are getting too out of control or heavy. Horns will shed at certain stages as well, and some treasure hunters risk their lives to retrieve these horn sheaths (particularly the ram style), as they are worth quite a lot of money. His mane is long and shaggy, and as he doesn't always have perfect hygiene, it gets tangled, matted, or debris caught in it sometimes. Has spines running along his back, and a long, flexible scorpion tail (which has spines on them as well that resemble vertebrae). He has a white/black dual toned mane, with white around the head, and black around the remainder of the mane. His eyes are white, with barely visible pupils. Paw pads and claws are black, claws are retractable like most felines. Top canine teeth are very long, and resemble sabertooths.
