The Tomb-Lion was once a performing animal for a show or circus, but it was unfortunately mistreated and now resides in the Tomb-Colonies.[2] It is accompanied by a keeper,[3] and is wreathed in bandages and a rather horrid odor.[2][4] Despite its squalor, it is loyal and seemingly quite intelligent,[5][6] and it retains its regal demeanor and aggression towards disrespect.[4][7] Its diet is mysterious; it shows no interest in any kind of food, and it is unknown whether it eats at all.[8]

But once its tail is duplicated [...] it is intrigued; [...] it wants a set for itself. Wearing one's own tail as a necklace makes a notable adornment."
