A determined tiefling warlock playing chess with an enbysphinx I drew for Cute Creatures Compendium, my latest book. The enbysphinx is one of the cute creatures you can find in the book, along with their stat block, lore, and more!

Scorch’s backstory soon!

About Enbysphinxes:

Mysterious, charming, and sharp-witted, enbysphinxes exist outside the strict binary distinction between androsphinxes and gynosphinxes. Like their binary counterparts, enbysphinxes guard mythical treasures, protect magical gateways, and serve as custodians of truths that have slipped past mortalkind.

Mythical Guardians. Though generally not chaotic, enbysphinxes are usually more free-spirited and spontaneous than their strictly male and female counterparts. Some enbysphinxes may develop a sense of humor that might surprise mortals. Instead of guarding ancient temples and vaults, an enbysphinx might travel the world, posing ancient riddles to test the worth of mortals, and sharing knowledge and spells powerful enough to shape the course of history.

Magic Riddles. Enbysphinxes spend eternities creating challenges and devising riddles that test the wisdom, the cunning, and the resolve of mortals. These riddles are laced with potent magic that amplifies their effects. Some enbysphinxes may add a humorous spin to their challenges to surprise mortals, or use their sharp wit to scandalize, distract, and confuse those who do not respect their challenges.

Sphinx Sympathy. Mortals who treat an enbysphinx with respect and manage to solve their riddles may not only access the secrets they might be protecting, but also find themselves friends with the mighty guardian. A friendly enbysphinx may reward mortals with a heroes’ feast in their magnificent mansion or treat them to an evening of witty sphinx poetry!

What do you think? :)
