Gryphons ("Greif" in the Elven Dialect and "Drakarend" in Enkhulun Dialect) are massive beasts that inhabit the forests and mountains of Gwynbrenon as well as Imperia, taking on the appearance of a half-bird, half feline with the most notable aspects of their bodies being their beaked heads, large wings and lush tails. Their front legs have bird talons while the back legs possess paws. Due to their social nature, Gryphons live in large flocks and leave only when they seek to create their own family elsewhere. They are known for being relatively peaceful if left alone but are bound to be protective of their flock and don't take lightly to being approached by strangers.
Uncanny to most beasts, skillful Gryphons are able to harness the primal elemental force of thunder and use it to attack their prey with shocking attacks, often times a single lightning blast from a Gryphon being able to kill a healthy Enkhulu. They may also use their talons to shred their foes, pierce skin with their sharp beaks or simply crush them with their heavy, half a ton or more weight. Gryphons are agile both on ground and in the air.
Wolfen have a kinship with Gryphons and regularly make an effort in befriending them to use them as companions and mounts. The Enkhulu hunt Gryphons for their meat, leather and feathers.
