Description

The Audax's Lion is a large beast of bold appearance and temper, known for hunting prey several times larger than itself, it possesses unnatural proficiency for hunting large creatures. 

The Audax's Lion poses little to no threat to creatures it doesn't consider worthy of being hunted, often preferring to stalk dangerous monstrosities alone for days in harsh environments then to hunt prey considered too easy, even if it leads to starvation or death. As so only the strongest and most battle-hardened lions survive to reach full maturity where they reach their signature look of scar-like markings on their hide and fur along with huge dark manes.

Despite prefering to stalk victims, when provoked or given a challenge it will proudly present itself before duelling the provoker.

A battle with an Audax's Lion is one to the death, one with no breachs for mercy, despite that, legends tell of lions that gained respect for warriors strong enough to defeat them but merciful enough to let them live, creating centuries of rivalry.
