Steppe Stalkpaw

Large predatory cats that grow sleek wings upon entering adulthood. Some suspect they have a magical origin, though few can recall when these ferocious creatures did not exist. They primarily reside in the Thousand Tier Steppes but have been found as far east as the coast, though they avoid heading anywhere south of the Great Marsh.
They primarily hunt Baloth or Elcitaur, though hunting pairs of adults have been known to launch attacks at trade caravans or isolated settlements.
