Mantari sustain themselves on a diet of rats, carrion, and subterranean plants, but prefer the taste of fresh meat – particularly humans and gnomes. Mantari appear as large manta rays, gray in color, with a long smooth tail that ends in a sharpened barb. The mantari flies silently through its underground world in search of prey, and when encountered, it is often hungry and immediately attacks.
