Gargoyle :My ideas and those of the people on this thread rolled into one post. (sorta)
1. Crafting/Building Your Own: If you were in a crafting table, you could obsidian around the edges and one of a few certain blocks in the middle, you could getan "Inanimate Gargoyle". Once you placed this down, you could right click with an "Essence of Life" on it, spawning your own Gargoyle. You'd obtain said "Essence of Life" by slaying another gargoyle, whether it's your own, wild, or someone else's. The block you would place in the center would influence it's stats and maybe it's abilities. (A material that's heavier would produce higher health, while a lighter one would have higher speed.)
2. How They Behave: I think it would work best gameplay wise to have the gargoyles only awaken if it is dark enough. (ie. low enough light level for zombies and such to spawn.) They would not awaken underground, (below a certain Y coordinate, that is) as that's the monster's domain, not the gargoyle's. The gargoyle would fly around, killing every hostile mob within fifteen blocks of it's statue, but there wouldn't be a drops. (So that you can't use one of these to farm stuff, you have to do that yourself.) "Wild" Gargoyle statues could be found in Roofed Forests. The statues would be invincible, but when they woke up, the Gargoyle would be especially vulnerable to pickaxes, and could be put back to sleep by placing a light source near by. If you attacked the statue, nothing would happen. But if you attacked the gargoyle while it was awake, it would attack you. Whilst their damage wouldn't be amazing, it's nothing to scoff at either.
Wouldn't they technically be vulnerable in their stone statue state? They're just stone and completely immobile. A pickaxe is made to cut through stone, thus a gargoyle would be weak.

Neither. It's coming to 1.12. They only move forward.
Really? Wow. While it's awesome that they're moving forward, it sucks that I won't be able to play with the Griffin with the other mods in my personal modpack.

I'm not sure how one would go about this. I guess it's just up to the creator whether or not the statue is invincible. While pickaxes are meant to cut through stone, I don't think gargoyles would be made of just normal, everyday stone you can find in caves. Maybe it's enchanted. idk

Hey, maybe you might be able to. From the pattern of the updates i've been seing, they release their new content to the newest version of minecraft at that particular moment. I could be wrong, but it seems to be the most likely pattern.

Interesting. Thanks for sharing this information. Now it's just a matter of when the Hyppogryph is released, and when they'll role out a new set of bug fixes.

I believe he means hippogryph, as that's what's being released in the mod, not a gryphon, as shown by the snapshot by the back legs being those of a horse, and not a lion as a gryphon would have.

Still, gryphons would be amazing. Wonder if hippogriffs will have anything in common with the lore seen in the HP series.

i personally feel that finding underground dragon dens is a little too hard, so wouldn't it be cool if villagers could sell a map with the location of one on it like woodland mansions or ocean monuments?
Seems the helmet is rendered incorrectly, the helmet should be rotated 90 degrees to the armor stand's left (your right, iirc).

Use the seed 'okay' and move to the huge plains biome. There should be a small hill with a nice cliff. Dig into the left end via staircase mine about 5 blocks back from the cliff, and keep going 1 block over, 2 down. Should end up digging straight into a fire dragon cavern.

I agree, maybe make it so that only certain villagers can trade it?

It's a hippogryph. The difference between a hippyogryph and a gryphon is the back half, with a hippogryph's being that of a horse, and the griffin's a lion. It was previously pointed out that if you look closely that the model in the image is indeed that of a hippogryph.

Some people, including myself, don't like to use seeds. I'll use one occasionally to explore it in Creative mode, but other than that, I like my worlds totally random. Thanks for sharing tho
