Manticore

Whatever madness compelled the Atlaneans to create such a beast is beyond comprehension. This beast has the head of a human, with features and emotions that disturbingly resemble our own. However, they perched it on the body of a great quadrepedial lion-beast with bat wings. Finally, simply because Atlanteans loved scorpions they added a gigantic tail with a stinger on it.

These rare monstrosities live in remote lands, typically finding a mate to create more of their kind. Many of the young are cannibalized by their parents, but every so often a youngling escapes their nest and makes their way in the world to terrorize and consume any edible creature it can.
