Final. Griffin vs. Leviathan
 
So it comes down to the final. Finally.
If this is to carry on anymore, I personally think it should be back with Animal Wars.
Possibly user-submitted suggestions, to add a touch of personal vendetta.

Griffin:


Quote:

- According to the Oxford English Dictionary: "the regular modern spelling is griffon, in other senses usually griffin, though gryphon is used by many writers as having more dignified associations."

-Griffins are normally known for guarding treasure.


Leviathan:



Quote:

In a legend recorded in a Midrash called Pirke de-Rabbi Eliezer it is stated that the whale which swallowed Jonah narrowly avoided being eaten by the Leviathan, which generally eats one whale each day.

Legend speaks of a beast
Three hundred miles from it's tip to it's tail
None have seen it, yet all know it's name
Like the ark of the covenant, or the holy grail

We set out on a quest
In search of the lair, where the creature doth dwell
On a ransom to bring back it's head
Our journey would take us to the depths of hell

His eyes shine like the rays of morning
His mouth is as a burning flame

Leviathan
Cresting the waves
Leading us all to the grave
Leviathan
Slaying all foes
Who dare to oppose
Tearing bodies limb from limb
Eviscerating on a whim

The skies turned to black
The oceans fell dead, no winds dared to blow
Then out the darkness with a thunderous roar
Leviathan rose up from the depths below

Cannons fired, and swords tasted blood
As the beast turned to strike with rage in it's eyes
From it's mouth came a great ball of flame
It was then we all knew, that the end was nigh

His eyes shine like the rays of morning
His mouth is as a burning flame
His nostrils seethe with fumes of brimstone
He is the beast that can't be tamed

Leviathan definately. My brother owns a pretty good SF book about it (also titled Leviathan). About people who want to prove its existence or something, I need to read it.


Anyway, I like gryphons... but they're not as cool as the Leviathan.

Only one of them was ever a megazord...

Go Leviathan.

I vote leviathan because the Gryphon could only have beaten the Kraken if this contest was wrigged ;) and it should not be in the final. The Kraken's underling must therfore fight the good fight, it could devour entire flocks of Gryphon's.

This is going to come down to the wire, but Griffin Thunderzord power!

It's a robot foot. How can you take a mythological beast in the form of a foot seriously?

Bribery? Really? That only shows how weak the Leviathan's argument really is. How it got past the Chupacabra I'll never know...

I have stuck with Leviathan this whole competition for one reason.
