dont think i’ve ever posted this before but alistair has blythe’s birth date (in roman numerals) tattooed on his rib which is a reference to how in the bible it was adam’s rib that was used to create eve,, but the irony in that is that it was blythe that had technically created who alistair is now

Size Comparison - Lammasu and Manticore

The Lammasu and the Manticore are much larger than humans, to the point that some old Manticora are taller than humans at the withers. Both morphic species have the ability to unfurl feather manes to further increase their size, though only the Lammasu is capable of flight - and then only when all of it's feathers are extended to fullness.

Lamassu aren't Egyptian but it's fantasy stuff so anything goes I guess.

Lammasu

[m1male2]

Winged bull or lammasu, were guardians of the city gates. In Mesopotamia these androcephalic bulls chased away evil spirits and enemies. Their wings, represented the speed of the birds; the head, human intelligence; the body, the force.

lammasu I believe it is a sacred creature of sorts. I don't remember though. honestly forgot most of the research I did for this. it is other Egyptian or mesopotainian and that dose not narrow it down.
