Okay, I find the premise and description of his half breed Pegasi flight magic interesting. You have my attention there. It is something of a personal interest as I had a fic I had written (on paper, when I was a teenager) with a character who was a unicorn but with Pegasi magic, and thus, she could control the weather and cloudwalk naturally but not cast normal spells . I think this is the kind of concept you can run with and get an entertaining short story or full story out of.

I like this detail, because I personally went with a slight german interpenetration of Griffons and liked the idea of their being multiple different states/factions like a loosely organized Holy Roman Empire. This became only doubly so after Griffonstone, which is a disappointment for use as the main faction for any Griffon civilization.
