The Griffon

The Walking Statue of Waterdeep known as The Griffon materialized in Waterdeep during the Spellplague of 1385 DR. After flying over the city it came to rest facing southeast toward the Dock Ward of Waterdeep on Mount Waterdeep near Peaktop Aerie. Due to its location many believed it was simply a monument to the Griffon Cavalry, but that was not true.

The statue itself appears as its name implies - a griffon standing on all four legs, although it is approximately twenty feet tall and made of granite.
