Womanticore
With the face of a pretty ghost, the body of a lioness, the tail of a scorpion and the breath of rotting meat, Rino took a while to understand what kind of monster he was looking at.
From his memory, Rino only knew of something close to this hybrid monster. However, he wasn't certain if they were the same creature. After all, there were some differences in their appearance. Rino did not want to be sexist, but this creature's face was a woman's. He did not know if manticores had genders, but he did not want to offend.
Womanticore? Maybe if he referred to the creature that decapitated him as such, Rino would be forgiven for the mistaken identity.
The womanticore roared, and Rino had to hold his breath. Liches do not need to breathe, but he practised breathing out of habit and regretted every second of it. Weren't females more particular about hygiene? This womanticore was a disgrace to her kind!
