The SendingStone review

The Hippogriff is an interesting creature in the world of Dungeons & Dragons. With its unaligned alignment, it can be a wild card in any encounter. It has decent stats, with a challenge rating of 1, and its high passive perception makes it highly alert and aware of its surroundings. However, its low charisma score of 8 could make it difficult to handle for those trying to tame or befriend it.

In combat, the Hippogriff has a decent Armor Class of 11 and can deal moderate damage with its beak and talons. Its 19 hit points also give it some staying power in a fight. However, it could be seen as too weak for higher level players, making it more appropriate for lower level encounters.

Overall, the Hippogriff is a solid addition to any D&D campaign, whether as a formidable foe or a potential ally. Its unique blend of horse and eagle features also make it visually interesting and fun to imagine in any setting.
