Peak Catamount
Level 8 Wildlife · Widow's Peak
Peak Catamount is a level 8 wildlife found in the Sangre Territory of Desperados Destiny.
Field notes
A solitary catamount that has claimed the summit — the highest territory on the map. It ambushes from above, using the mesa rim as a drop point. The Nahi call this elevation the spine of an ancestor; the catamount does not share it.
What you are walking into
Peak Catamount is level 8, carries 72 health, and is classed Stalker. That makes it a mid-low threat for a character finding their feet. It fights by attrition — damage that keeps working after the hand is played, so a long fight favours it rather than you. Every exchange resolves through the Destiny Deck: you draw five cards, choose what to hold, and the resulting poker hand decides how the action lands. Suit matches amplify the result, so the same fight against Peak Catamount plays out differently each time you take it on.
Where to find Peak Catamount
Peak Catamount is encountered at Widow's Peak. You will need to have discovered and travelled to that location before it can appear as a target, and travel between regions carries its own risks — routes are rolled for interception, and a bad roll puts an encounter between you and your destination. The full entry for Widow's Peak covers what else is there.
What it drops
A kill pays 96 experience and between $3 and $8. Its loot table can yield Coyote Pelt and Animal Sinew. Drops are rolled per kill, so a full set takes repeat hunting. The first time you kill any species it is also recorded in your Field Guide, which pays a large one-off experience bonus and counts toward the Guide's completion milestones.
