Wamprus Cat
| ||||||||||||||
Overview
The Wamprus Cat is often mistaken for a mountain lion or cougar, but is itself an entirely different creature. These crafty cats are notorious for being difficult to kill thanks to their innate strength and agility. In fact, Wamprus Cats are capable of the incredible feats of walking on their hind legs and outrunning arrows. Despite what the famous author Akakios Horatius claims in his popular book ‘Supports of the Creatures’, Wamprus Cats are not as likely to “give the evil a taste of their own medicine” as they are to protect their territory from perceived threats, especially thanks to their history with the Cherokee, fighting for space in their native territory in the Appalachian Mountains. Interestingly, these ferocious felines even have a house at the Silvermorne Wizarding Academy named after them. Located near Wigtown, the Wamprus Cat's drops are utilised in the quest The Bells of Wigtown.
Behaviour and Defence
Habitat
The Wamprus Cat is native to the Appalachian Mountains, nearby the last remaining Cherokee wizard tribes. However, the Wamprus Cat species has several colonies in other mountain ranges, most notably in the Mountains near Riddleyard and Wigtown. Don’t be surprised if you find a couple of skulls in the caves they reside in- these cats bite! For brewing and cooking purposes, Lvl 50 Wormwood grows nearby their caves.
Defeat
Upon defeat, Wamprus Cats have a chance of dropping level 51-60 gear materials; Native Silver, Fragile Wool, Rough Ruby, Brittle Yew as well as Wamprus Cat Fur, Wamprus Cat Meat, and Wamprus Cat Tails. These ingredients can be used in professions, quests, and crafting Lvl 51-60 gear pieces. Wamprus Cats also have a small chance of dropping random Lvl 51-60 Gear Recipes and Broom Recipes. Wamprus Cat drops can be used to craft the professions items Puffing Pod Fudge VI, Jester's Stew VI, White Cocoacursed Tea VI, and Hijinx Mixture VI.
