Gorge Catamount
Level 13 Wildlife · Badlands Canyon - Southern Gorge
Gorge Catamount is one of the wildlife threats a player meets in Desperados Destiny, sitting at level 13.
Field notes
A big cat that thrives in the gorge's cool shadow, dropping ambushes from the narrow walls above — a missed perception check means an opening bleed before you even see it.
What you are walking into
Gorge Catamount is level 13, carries 117 health, and is classed Stalker. That makes it a mid-game threat that expects a built character. 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 Gorge Catamount plays out differently each time you take it on.
Where to find Gorge Catamount
Gorge Catamount is encountered at Badlands Canyon - Southern Gorge. 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 Badlands Canyon - Southern Gorge covers what else is there.
What it drops
A kill pays 156 experience and between $5 and $13. Its loot table can yield Catamount Pelt, Animal Sinew and Exotic Hide. 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.
