In some variations, instead of a spike at the end of the scorpion tail, the manticore instead has a countless pointy spikes, that can be launched at it's target with high precision. They are also not always portrayed with wings. The spikes are poisonous and can paralyze their victims. Their roar is said to be like a loud blare of trumpets.
