About[]
Graphorns are hump-backed and have grey-purple skin that is tougher than a dragon's and is capable of deflecting most spells. They also have two golden horns and four-thumbed feet. They use tentacle appendages to eat their food. Powedered graphorn horns are used in potions but they are very difficult to collect which is why they are very expensive to purchase.[1]
Graphorns have a very aggressive nature and will be incredibly dangerous if approached. They live in mountainous regions in Europe. Mountain trolls have been known to ride Graphorns but they do not react kindly to any efforts to tame them which is why the trolls often have scars.[1]
