Capabilities
User with this ability either is or can transform into an manticore, a mythical beast with the body of a lion and human head with three rows of sharp teeth (like a shark). Other aspects of the creature vary: they may be horned, winged, or both. The tail is that of either a dragon or a scorpion, and it may shoot poisonous spines to either paralyze or kill its victims.
