[edit] Characteristics

All Griffons in the Prophecies Campaign are melee attackers and as such are very susceptible to PBAoEs. Griffons in Nightfall Campaign are ranged attackers.

All Griffons are Monks, Warriors, or Ritualists.

On the weakness side, keep in mind that Griffons ...

• are fleshy creatures.
• are susceptible to all conditions, incl. bleeding, poison and disease.
• leave a corpse behind.
• are not undead.
• can be knocked down.

Griffons and Harpies are suspected to be members of the same species.

[edit] Trivia

Griffons are obviously inspired by the Griffins of greek and medieval mythology, which are a mixture of a lion and an eagle.
