Description
Yuan-Ti Panthers were the equivalent of guard dogs for the yuan-ti. Typically accompanying guards on patrols of their land, they also saw use in detecting and hunting down intruders. The yuan-ti panther kept all of its original parts; with the only difference being a long snake body that connected its head to its torso, and the introduction of poisonous fangs. This allowed it to strike from distance and use its incredible speed to wear down its prey much easier.
