Sinister Shaper. The falajitax is a cunning hunter, sometimes luring creatures into its clutches by hiding its serpentine body and allowing only its bird-like head to show amid foliage. While the creature is not particularly agile, it easily transitions from land to water to trees in pursuit of prey. It also uses its shapechanging powers to assume an innocuous form like a horse or lures people into riding it, galloping with them into a river or lake to drown them.
