Description and lore
A heavy hippo-bodied hybrid combines lion and alligator features in a single imposing animal. Its mass makes the water’s edge a precarious place to stand.
The shallows bear a broad resting hollow and reeds flattened beneath a heavy body. Mixed tracks converge at the water.
Lion and alligator features meet above a hippo's mass. The head turns while the body settles deeper into the mud.
