Ever wonder what happens if you torment a griffin, and then it picks you up and takes off, and then dies mid-air?


[Old Ta'Faendryl, Southern Road]
The road slopes down to the southwest and rises toward the northeast. To the north a high wall cuts across the darkened horizon. You also see a war griffin that is flying around.
Obvious paths: northeast, southwest

A war griffin dives down and hooks its claws into you! With a great flap of its wings the war griffin carries you into the air!

Within moments you find yourself soaring over the ground far below!

You focus on transmitting your thought.
You feel the mind of Stormgren touch yours, calling the memory of your location as you last saw it. You offer no resistance.

The griffin quickly swoops down and releases you several feet above the ground, and you flail awkwardly before landing with a dull **THUD**!

You are stunned for 6 rounds!

[Old Ta'Faendryl, Basilica Plaza]
A multi-stemmed vine has worked its way up the side of the platform and across the plaza in wide semi-circular spray. Tiny curved thorns along the length of each supple stem cling like cat's claws to minute irregularities in the surface of the pavement. You also see a war griffin that appears dead.
Obvious paths: east, west
!SPR>,lol it's dead
You focus on transmitting your thought.
The war griffin decays into a pile of feathers and fur.


nothing. you stay up there for another minute and then drop like a sack of bricks, and the griffin decays instantly.

Yeah that's been a known bug for a while. You can kill the griffin any number of ways and it'll keep you flying.

You should definitely earn double frequent flyer points if you manage to kill your griffin mid flight.

I would love to see something changed where if a griffin died in mid flight the passenger character would have a chance of somehow landing on top of the dead griffin feather pillow, a pillow that might just cushion the landing (and would give you awesome style points).
