Notes This creature shares the eagle-like forequarters and wings (30'wingspan) of the Griffin, but the Hippogriff’s ears and hindquarters are equine. The Hippogriffs are thought to have been created at the same time and with the same formula of mystically empowered words which created the Griffin. However, the body of a horse was substituted in this species for that of a lion. Therefore, the two races are very similar, and in fact, the race of Hippogriffs are sought as mounts in the same way as the Griffin. As mounts, they can carry 200 pounds (90 kg or 54 ENC.) , but give no modification to the rider’s riding maneuvers. Wary of the mannish races, the Hippogriff dwells among the lonely crags of deserted and unexplored mountains. A frisky disposition leads the Hippogriff to play among the winds and the thermals of the sky, where it occasionally is confronted by the fiercer lion-like Griffin, its ‘cousin.’ When left in peace, the Hippogriff enjoys pasturing in high mountain meadows, where its foals can run and play amidst the sun and alpine flowers. The Hippogriff’s arsenal of pointed talons and sharp beak is its beastial offense and defense against any foes it may meet in the wide expanses of its domain.
