## Description the creature referred to as a "Serpopard" was first encountered in [[Wildemount Session 7]] Here's what is established from that session: - The party meets [[Captain Bellamy]] and his adventuring crew while tracking [[Mikey]] through the woods outside of [[Alfield]]. - [[Captain Bellamy|Bellamy]]’s crew was hunting a rare creature for the fighting pits in [[Zadash]]. - The creature is described by the NPCs as a cross between a cheetah and a snake, capable of moving swiftly and silently, with a long, serpentine body and feline limbs. - It’s suggested to be highly dangerous, intelligent, and difficult to track. - The name given by [[Captain Bellamy|Bellamy]]’s crew is Serpopard. This matches the mythological hybrid beast that appears in some homebrew and exotic creature lore—though no outside sources are used for this answer. In short, from your sessions: > A Serpopard is a rare predator with a snake-like body and cheetah-like features, blending speed, stealth, and cunning. It was being hunted by [[Captain Bellamy]]’s crew to be sold into the fighting pits of [[Zadash]].
