Notes
- He is based on the Persian legendary creatures of the same name, which were said to be human-faced, leonine monsters from India capable of shooting poisonous stings from their tails. Their name is ultimately derived from the Old Persian martyahvārah, or “man-eater”.
- His red ore-like thorns might be a reference to how manticores were described as having cinnabar-red fur.
- Pliny the Elder's Naturalis Historia erroneously describes manticores as living in Ethiopia, possibly because Ethiopia and India were often confused in ancient accounts. This could be the reason why Manticore is from Agisymba.
- His Charge Skill, Sewochini Mibela Ch'irak'i, roughly means “a monster that eats people” (ሰዎችን/sewochini = people, ሚበላ/mībela = eat, ጭራቅ/ch’irak’i = monster) in Amharic, the official language of Ethiopia.
