Strong grip; mythical creature with eagle head and lion body
Derived from the Greek word 'gryps', the name refers to the legendary creature known for guarding treasure and divine power. It symbolizes a combination of alertness and strength, merging the king of birds with the king of beasts. While traditionally a mythological reference, it has emerged as a rare, spirited alternative to Griffin.
