I never said the Sphinx is like the Nuckalavee. I didn't even bring up said Grimm. You're the only one that did and accused me of saying its like the Sphinx, something I never stated. The Nuckalavee is a literal hybrid of two different types of Grimm, which was confirmed by CRWBY. The Sphinx, as far as we know, just happens to have two heads, which makes sense considering that the creature its based on also had a snake for a tail in various mythologies. As far as we know, its a 'natural' Grimm.

You used as an argument that, because the Sphinx also has a way of delivering venom, its therefore the same species as the Manticore. But as I've stated, the snake for a tail isn't something CRWBY invented. Sphinxes already have that in traditional mythologies.

And you're incorrect in that regard. If one of the creators or artsist come's out and states that the Sphinx is the same species as the Manticore, I'd accept that immidiatly. I'd find it a bit odd, but I wouldn't pull a Soreal and claim they're wrong.
