Origins[]
The jabberwock comes from the poem "The Jabberwocky," written by Lewis Carroll in his novel Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There.
Appearance[]
The Jabberwock is a dragonlike creature. It has bulging, flaming eyes, bat wings, and a long tail. Its claws are long and hairy. Oddly enough for a carnivore, it has buck teeth. The Jabberwock has antennae and feelers around its mouth. It also has a remarkable sense of fashion, sporting a waistcoat.
