for ref, that’s the Grootslang (rest of the body being snake-like)
And the big bad for the next issue or two, at least.

Actually, ‘boomslang’ means ‘tree snake’ in Afrikaas…since it is a tree-climbing snake, while ‘Grootslang’ means ‘big snake’ in the same language…which at least describes this version of the creature perfectly.
…That also probably means that ‘snake’ in Afrikaas is ‘slang’, though don’t quote me on this.
Ooohhh, so they went with snake with hands huh?
What are you trying to say or gain from it?

Most of them are accurate enough like the Chimera, a different take like the Manticore which is supposed to be a man-faced, club tailed, lion but a lion nonetheless (Scooby Doo’s Manticore is a flying lion), or a literal take like the bugbear. Grootslang here is probably the second but overall is none of the above.
Well, changelings don’t exactly look like the ones from mythology, and same goes for really any mythological beast or monster in MLP.
It’s a nice dragon but not exactly a grootslang.
