Vigilance

Gryphons are a strange lot. Depending on who you are, they may stand loyally at your side, or bend down and bite your head clean off without a second thought. For the Maichach, however, the gryphons have a certain loyalty. A bond, you might say, and only these few are allowed the privilege of riding them.

Gryphons are never in anyone's service. They merely choose whether to help or not. They do not serve. It is their choice and their choice alone whether they stay or leave. However, the loyalty of a gryphon is one of the most powerful you will find. And if you are sure of your gryphon, she will never abandon you, even if death stands in the way.
