Introducing Shirdal the majestic Griffin! With the head of a bird and the body of a beast the Griffin, (sometime spelled Gryphon), is a popular and much loved mythical creature, and we hope you love our Shirdal as much as we do. 

Find out more about him below...

NAME: SHIRDAL

Type of creature: Griffin

Strength: Griffins have very sharp claws and a strong beak.

Weakness: Although known to be guardians of wisdom, Griffins were forced from their homes, and adapted to more urban settings. They are easily distracted - especially by gold, but anything shiny will do.

Where are they from: The Zagros Mountains of Mesopotamia

Did you know: In the wild, Griffins build giant nests of gold where they lay their golden eggs. But, sadly there are only a few left. Shirdal is one of the last!

We can't wait for you to meet him in Dragons and Mythical Beasts, live on stage!
