Cat, Tressym, Giant
This creature exists under the name of Giant Tressym, Jana-Nimr and Greater Winged Cat in DnD, but appears in many folklores across the world.
A puma with wings, with the fur diversity of a house cat. The Giant Tressym, or Greater Flying Cat, is a solitary ambush predator that pounces on its prays from impossible-to-reach locations. It is surprisingly intelligent. A carnivorous beast.
Imagine a calico puma with magestic wings that match its fur.

It can hear and see very well, allowing it to easily spot their preys in the dark. It can smell illusions and poisons, and speaks the language of sphinxes.
Attacks (1/round)
Pounce. The giant tressym makes a melee attack (1D6 dmg). If it was flying before the attack, a human-sized or smaller target is prone.
Tame It
If you have captured this beast, you can spend the equivalent of 1 bag of gold in food between two adventures to tame it. It is now one of your followers. Each extra bag of gold spent training with the beast teaches you one short phrase in its language. Otherwise, it is proud and selfish.
Hunt It
Tressyms are extremely prized as pets. But its fur is also an exotic, if decadent, luxury.
If you have access to an artisan and a workshop, you can spend loot between two adventures to create something with parts of the beast. The object you craft can be anything mostly made of the provided materials. It will have the value of what you invest in it. Discuss what you want with the referee.
