Most honored and revered leader, the Regent of Serpentine Stratagems, I am proud to report that the experiment worked even better than I anticipated. Thanks to your insightful suggestions, we have successfully spawned a composite creature. It features characteristics of a variety of predators, including scorpions, crocodiles, welwas, and humans. I call it the mantikora. Yours in the Serpent's name, Boward, Regent of Wriggling Nightmares
