yrthaks are eyeless dragons with a single odd horn in the center of their forehead.yuan-ti(sorry,last time I spelled it wrong.)are snake-human creatures,like Echidna.And finally,ormyrrs are like slugs with several short legs,lacking any magical skills whatsoever. 4  out of 4 found this valuable.

I was not aware of the first creature (yrthaks) but did come across the second. As for the third, that featured in the game Ruins Of Myth Drannor - a Dungeons and Dragons game. I thought it was only a game based creature. Glad to be proven wrong. 3  out of 3 found this valuable. Do you?

"What is the creature like?"
the creature is somewhat like a griffon - but mostly cat (a specific species) with eagle wings (specific eagle again) with a few horse traits (stems from years of liking both Pegasus and Griffons). Wiry & lean, yet powerful. Personality-wise it would be a staunch (& even violent if necessary) fighter for justice & the underdog, dependable in all situations - but generally & mostly very playful & mischievous, a loyal & faithful guardian of its "owner" / keeper (it is a cat, noone can "own" one!).
My problem is I am a scientist and somewhat lack "artistic" thinking, so I am tending towards a scientific, descriptive name which perhaps is not applicable. Yet I want a "perfect" & correct name as I wish to use this combination as an online avatar. If you can help I would appreciate it - if you wish the details then I would prefer to IM them (I have "ownership" issues too it seems) ;)

I can wholly understand on the ownership thing (I'm partial to that myself). Allow me a moment to tinker on the details given presently. Maybe I can come up with something 2  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?

Just brainstorming here but see what you think?

1) Gavallo
2) Pferze
3) Vöerdze
4) Kůňtáci-očka

I'm not sure if I am doing this right but let me know if I am heading in the right direction?

wow, thanks ... :)
I probably have even less clue if you are heading in the right direction, but they are all very interesting names. Is there any meaning to them / how did you get to them ...
Specifically 4 & 1.. altho you will have to please explain the pronunciation .. hehe

It's easy, tho they have no real meaning. basically I took the main features of the animal (Horse, Cat, Bird) and translated it into a number of languages. Anything that seemed good I then mixed the letters about to form something new. 1st example is from Italian. 2nd and 3rd is German; 4th is Czech.

Here is how I pronounce them:

1) Ga-Val-Lo
2) Fer-se
3) Vo-erd-se
4) Kun-ta-chi O-ka
