This is what comes before that — a juvenile, curled across a weathered log with its clawed paws dangling and its eyes peacefully shut. Tiny horns already curl from its broad, feline head. The scaled and armoured body hints at the predator it will become, its scorpion-like tail tucked beneath it in blissful, oblivious rest. It is, by any measure, deeply charming — and deeply dangerous in the wrong campaign moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSculpted with impressive character by Epic Miniatures, this sleeping baby manticore rewards careful painting. The textural contrast between the soft feline face, the ridged armoured body, and the rough bark of the log gives a painter plenty of material to work with. Whether you go for a sun-bleached savanna palette or something stranger and more magical, the sculpt holds detail throughout. As a display piece, it makes a conversation-starting addition to any miniature collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a gaming piece, the possibilities are wide open. Place it in a forest clearing as something the party stumbles upon — does the ranger know what it is? Does the warlock want to keep it?

There, in the roots of a fallen oak, something is breathing. Small, scaled, feline. Its tail is barbed. Its horns are barely nubs. The ranger whispers: \"Manticore. Young. Very young.\" From somewhere deeper in the trees, a low, resonant sound carries through the undergrowth. The mother is close.
