A Peacock Griffin in Dungeons & Dragons is a variant of the traditional griffin, blending the majestic traits of both a lion and an eagle with the flamboyance of a peacock. This creature typically features the body of a lion, the head and wings of an eagle, but with a distinctive tail that resembles a peacock's, full of vibrant, iridescent feathers that fan out when the creature is excited or displaying dominance. Its plumage can shine with brilliant blues, greens, and purples, often shimmering in the light. This tail is not just ornamental; it can be used in a defensive manner, as the feathers are sharp and can be used to defend against attackers.

In terms of behavior, Peacock Griffins are known to be more territorial and prideful than their regular counterparts, often engaging in loud displays of color and noise to ward off rivals. These creatures are often associated with the domains of beauty, pride, and opulence, and they tend to be attracted to areas where wealth and extravagance are present. As a result, Peacock Griffins are sometimes found in the service of noble houses or as guardians of grand estates, where they are revered as symbols of power and grace.

In D&D, they can be treated as powerful and majestic creatures, typically having the same combat abilities as a regular griffin, such as formidable claw and bite attacks, flight, and keen senses. However, their peacock-like appearance and behavior might also make them an interesting addition to campaigns, where their beauty could either charm or intimidate those who encounter them.
