The Sphinx of Pacts is a shard of the Great Sphinx, and is the spirit possessing Max Puckett.
Appearance[]
The sphinx of pacts has predominantly black fur with a tan underbelly. Their eyes are a violet color with black pupil, and their wings seem to resemble those of a bat more than those of a bird like the other sphinxes. They have retractable golden claws and a golden pen tip at the end of their tail, alongside several other gold accessories, including a collar with a broken chain link.
