The Trigertaur is a monster in the series.

Characteristics

Trigertaurs are beastmen with the upper bodies and tails of anthropomorphic tigers, a pair of bat-like wings on their backs, and the lower bodies of their horses. The tigers wear simple red vests on their torsos and wield sharp tridents in their hands, which they use to perform sweeping attacks. They have some knowledge of magic, being able to weaken their opponents' defences before going on the offensive.
