Description
The walking statue called the Griffon is shaped like the beast for which it is named. Though it stand on all fout legs, its back is fully 6 meters off the ground, making it a mount fit for a Storm Giant.
Although it has shown itself to be capable of flight, with the granite feathers of its wings spreading like a bird's, the Griffon now merely stands in a regal pose atop Mount Waterdeep, looking to the southeast over the Dock Ward (Waterdeep).
Newcomers sometimes assume it to be a monument to Waterdeep's Griffon Cavalry, but Waterdavians know better.
Location
It is found on Mount Waterdeep, near Peaktop Aerie, looking southeast toward the Dock Ward.
History
