EPL: about 6ish: before flight preferably. CR of beasty should be fairly high for this level, or should otherwise have good damage migation/extra hitpoints.

type: fight with added skill flavour

background: party is on a heavy chariot, or other armed vehicle.

They're is a huge -f!&&-off monster behind the party. Fortunately, so long as the chariot is always double moving the beast cannot catch up to the party but it can outrun most characters on foot.

the trick to the fight is to remain out of the beast's range while driving the chariot and peppering the beats with arrows/ballista blots from the on-board light ballista.

Season with traps deadfalls, and dangerous terrain to taste.

Bonus: The same but atop a clockwork dragon/colossus.

Y'know, I was going to get a scorpion whip for my shiny new magus character, but after looking at this debacle, I'm just going to use a whip and a scimitar for closer range, and suck up the non lethality until I can get whip mastery.

Seriously. NO-ONE know what they do. It's a mystery to everyone.

...If your optimisation was a bit higher, you could harvest the lions for pelts. :P
