(A mantikora is an intelligent creature, Maxi. It knows who poses the greatest threat and who doesn't. Given that Scathach is armed to the teeth, Bjolmar is wearing at least some armor and a pretty mean-looking battleaxe, and Raig is wearing basically no armor and wielding only a large sword, it makes sense that it would attack the weakest foe first.)

The mantikora let out a snarl but was more angered than injured, and reeled backwards just enough so that it didn't crush Scathach underfoot. Bjolmar struck in this moment, moving forwards with surprising speed for someone in a heavy cuirass and boots, and swung his battleaxe so that it lodged into one of the creature's huge front feet. The abomination snarled and swatted him aside with ease, sending the battleaxe sprawling out of the way, but heard Raig growl and turned back to face the lycanthrope.

Without warning, the abomination shot forwards, it's torso and head lowered so that it's neck and chest were protected from Raig's claws. A clawed hand was raised to shred the werewolf to ribbons if he didn't move quickly.
