==Culture==
The Hippogriff culture was very proud, but also very friendly. Hospitality was among their highest concerns for newcomers and foreigners and gladly allowed creatures of other species to partake in their festivals and events. They simply loved life and enjoyed living it in every way they could. That said, during the Storm War, they were understandably quite paranoid of outsiders and initially believed the [[Mane Six]] to be invaders and thus treated them with hostility until they realized they were not evil at all.
It is fairly common for Hippogriff names to evoke water and/or air, though there are exceptions.
