A Qilin would be a good fit but they would have to remove the wings most likely.

 

Still could be cool though. I am pretty excited about eventually getting a cool griffon skin.[https://cdnb.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/002/229/519/large/sean-kernerman-kernerman-sean-qilinshowcase1080.jpg?1459007835](https://cdnb.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/002/229/519/large/sean-kernerman-kernerman-sean-qilinshowcase1080.jpg?1459007835 "https://cdnb.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/002/229/519/large/sean-kernerman-kernerman-sean-qilinshowcase1080.jpg?1459007835")

Pff surely a griffon is the chicken and the raptor is the dragon.

An asian dragon wouldn’t fit on the Gryffon’s skeleton. So that would be a 2000 gems mount, I dounbt many people on the western server are gonna pay for.

But I’ve suggested before to people who want a dragon mount, suggest to anet to make the Wyvern a skin. It looks pretty scaly and lizardy without being an actual dragon. and I think it fits on the Gryffon’s skeleton pretty well.![](https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5725/21758690490_4f0c3208a8_b.jpg "")

Actually a dragon skin would fit the Griffon's skeleton very well, a Wyvern skin wouldn't.

A wyvern has 2 legs and 2 wings (see ranger wyvern pet or legendary wyvern).

A dragon on the other hand, has 4 legs and two wings (see Shatterer, Tequatl, Claw of Jormag etc.) just like the Griffon.

 

EDIT: My bad I didn't see you said "**asian** dragon". You are right an asian dragon skin wouldn't fit the Griffon skeleton, but neither would a Wyvern skin though.

Sure. Though if you ask me they could do a dragon pack one for each mount. Basically each dragon would have aesthetics of particular mount. Wyvern with small wings would work for raptor. A dragon without wings like Godzilla could work for springer. A mist dragon for Skimmer could work. A Shifting Sand drake would work for Jackal. And a large winged dragon for Griffin. That would be a cool theme pack.

Agreed, but I really hope if it does go this way that the visuals they develop are much smoother and less cartoonish than what the Bethesda developers came up with for riding dragons in the Skyrim Dragonborn DLC.

I. I would actually buy this.

Doesn't have to be a flying mount. There are many flightless dragons in fantasy.
