I like wingless griffons and antlers. So sue me. I wanted a really messy background, buuut I know it came out weird... I already know I did a lot of things wrong in this one but I would like from feedback/critique anyway even though it may be similar to what I already had in mind.

The Wing Runner (AKA, Winger) is a wingless griffon standing approximately 6 to 7 ft tall from shoulder down. They travel in herds of up to 10 in plains of tallgrass, and they are usually led by two males with two, lesser females. Male Wingers have rugged, spiked antlers, while female have smooth, thinner ones. Their colors vary between neutral greys, browns, reds and white. Elder males can be easily spotted by their golden-brown, feathered mane. While their upper bodies are larger and heavy, they are balanced by their short, yet heavy tails.
Wingers are highly intelligent and work well with other members of their herd, but have a bitter hatred toward other griffon species and humans. Humans who have tried taming Wingers are usually tricked into trusting the griffon. However, this does not mean that Wingers are highly agressive; a person can walk into a herd casually as long as he or she does not threaten or taunt them.
