Oh, now we are getting to a very interesting and rare animal. Only the bravest of hunters will try to track down this beast. Note the wings of this creature are dragon-like, but the body is that of a lion. Of course, that is not the most interesting thing. Gaze upon a face that looks human, but see the gleam of evil and malice in the eyes? Also, be careful of the tail. Yes, sirrah, that is the tail of a scorpion back there. Overall, a very nasty beast.
