Character: battle griffin
The Battle Griffin is a recruitable alternative upgrade 4th-level Haven unit from the 2006 turn-based strategy game Heroes of Might & Magic V.
"Driven near to madness by the brutal training regime under their obsessive masters, these Griffins are capable of launching into devastating a Battle Frenzy. From the moment of their birth, Battle Griffins learn how to endure pain and equally how to exact a savage revenge on their assailants. Few are those who will dare to go anywhere near a griffin when it is fully grown, let alone engage it in combat. Each time the griffin is attacked or wounded, it responds with ever increasing ferocity and strength."
