Chrysaor

Chrysaors are a magical beast that originated in ancient Greece, but have now spread worldwide. It is said that the original Chrysaor, from which the species was named, was the son of the Immortal Poseidon and the gorgon Medusa, and was the brother of the original Pegasus. Which means that chrysaors, pegasi, and gorgons are all distantly related to each other.

Appearance
Chrysaors look like mundane pigs, however, unlike mundane pigs, they tend to have wings on their backs. Bird wings are common, but insect and bat wings are neither unheard of nor entirely impossible.

Behavior
Chrysaors tend to behave like mundane pigs, but tend to make nests in high places when mating season comes around. Females can have around 7 piglets in a litter, and tend to have around 2 litters a year. Most chrysaors live in the wild, but there are quite a few that have been domesticated.
