The Manticore is a monster girl mini-boss who can be found sleeping on some rocks in the Mountain during daytime. Players who aren't nimble enough to avoid disturbing her will be forced to either take some tail pussy or try to fight their way out of it. She is rather sadistic and enjoys dominating men with her extremely potent venom.
In-Game Description[edit | edit source]
"A chimeric woman with lightly tanned skin, wild orange-red hair, striking red eyes and a mouth filled with sharp, carnivorous teeth."
"Rather fluffy cat ears adorn her head and two imposing dark red bat wings sprout from her back. Her wrists, while covered in fluffy red fur the same color as her hair, end in wicked-looking claws that are incredibly striking."
"She's wearing a silken halter top to cover her sizable DD breasts, but does nothing to conceal her toned midsection, showing off her impressive looking muscles just below the skin. Rather revealing shorts cover her lower body, fitting the curves of her hips."
"Just above her knees is a sizeable floof of fluffy fur, and further down, her legs become more and more animalistic, eventually ending in terrifyingly sharp clawed paws."
"Sprouting from just above her shapely rear is a long dark red scorpion like tail that ends in an odd bulb, the base of which is covered in bony spines. The bulb like orifice seems to open occasionally, showing off its wiggling interior, seemingly made for the exclusive purpose of milking dicks."

Strategy[edit | edit source]
The Manticore is an 
-based enemy who primarily attacks with her 'tail pussy', forcing the player into Tail Fuck stance where their options will be limited. She will constantly inflict on you with her attacks, so make sure to pack items like Anaph Herbs to keep it in check. She is resistant to Anal attacks and Pain moves, making these useless against her, and being aphrodisiac-themed, that debuff is ineffective against her. Despite being classified as a Demonic Beast, the Manticore is not weak to the Demon Layer.
Her main weaknesses are Seduction and Sex stance; she has a fairly high Sex fetish, making her vulnerable to vaginal penetration which will also keep you safe from her tail. She is also very vulnerable to 
, assuming you have access to the Sleep spell.
Advancing through her content causes her to level up, which will increase her stats, decrease her Sex fetish and increase her resistance to debuffs, though her attacks remain the same.
Events[edit | edit source]
Sleeping Manticore[edit | edit source]
While exploring the mountain, you will come across a familiar looking Manticore, sunbathing and sleeping. You can choose to sneak by her, wake her up, or attack her!
Sneaking by requires a Technique check of 15 or higher. If you fail, you will have another chance to run away, which is also a check of 15 or higher.
Waking her up will allow you to speak with her briefly before you decide if you wish to either try to escape, allow her to milk you, or fight.
Choosing to attack will awaken her and enter combat. Be warned, she is a very difficult fight.
Scenes[edit | edit source]
Loss[edit | edit source]
The Manticore has two loss scenes:
- No stance: +5 Monstrous fetish, +10 Cock sensitivity. Also adds +15 addiction to her venom.
- Sex stance: +5 Sex fetish, +10 Cock sensitivity. Also adds +10 addiction to her venom.
Brothel[edit | edit source]
While working at the glory holes at the Brothel, the same Manticore may take advantage of you. She will either use her tail to drain you dry in the hole itself or hire you in specific to a room, where she will utterly dominate you with her aphrodisiac venom. Depending of your progress on her content, you are able to freely chose which scene you want to experience.
- The gloryhole scene results in 500 Eros, 50 EXP, +5 Oral fetish, +5 Monstrous fetish, +10 Cock sensitivity and +15 addiction to her venom.
- The room rental scene results in 750 Eros, 75 EXP, +5 Sex fetish, +5 Monstrous fetish, +10 Cock sensitivity and +15 addiction to her venom.
Dream Sequence[edit | edit source]
Once the player has experienced scenes with the Manticore, they can have a dream where you find yourself unable to move or see as a monstrous and hungry orifice begins milking your erection, while you are repeatedly injected with doses of libido-enhancing venom. This dream's content changes depending of how close you are to her; the more you are, the longer and more detailed it becomes.
Romance[edit | edit source]
Spending enough time with the Manticore allows you to eventually pursue a relationship with her. To progress, the player can exhaust her dialog, encounter her at the glory holes, defeat her in battle by making her orgasm through vaginal sex, repeatedly feed her, and use Manticore Spikes on himself. Over time, this causes you to develop an addiction to her venom, and once she learns of it, her usual aloof and sadistic attitude will break apart as she realizes what she did and what it means; she has grown fond of you from your time together, and the only way to cure your addiction is for you to bond as true mates. Doing so will allow you to visit her home where you will have a drawn-out mating scene, officializing your newfond bond by granting you the Mate Bonded perk and her finally revealing her name to you: Kaia.
Once in a relationship with her, new scenes are unlocked allowing you to visit her home, chat, headpat her, cuddle together or have sex with orifices other than her tail. She still visits the glory holes, but will have different dialog referring to your relationship.
Once bonded, you can also ask her to kidnap you, leading to a long scene where she dominates you and takes you to her home in order to keep milking you over and over. At one point, she needs to leave the house for a while, allowing you to break free of your bounds (either with a Power or Technique check, or with a Teleport spell) and hide in ambush for when she comes back, leading you to restrain her and reverse the roles as you kidnap her yourself, dominating her as she can't do anything but be reduced to a pleasured mess before you have a cute post-sex cuddle session.
