There was recently a post on the official XIV forums about what kind of flying mounts that other players would like to see.

While I found the thread interesting, I would assume that RPers would be using these mounts in their RP adventures, and may have some different ideas for what they would like to take to the skies with!

Here are a few I have suggested when this topic has come up in FC/LS chat!

Mist Dragon (FF IV)

While it appears rather large in previous FF games, the size of it could be reduced by only having it's back, wings and neck/head visible and having the rest shrouded in mist (or clouds!). Or it just being smaller in general.

Zu (Several appearances)

The Zu made a recent appearance as the second boss of Pharos Sirius, however it has made appearances as far back as Final Fantasy IV. These large winged birds could be pretty sweet as single rider, or possibly dual rider transport!

Helldiver (FF III)

I personally prefer the concept art to how they were shown in FF3, these creatures appear to have two feet, and along with the wings they also have two clawed hands.

Elvoret (FF VIII)

This is a slight departure from the bird/dragons, Elvoret appeared as a boss at the top of the communication tower in Dollet. While it has a rather demonic appearance, a rider could sit between his wings, or be held in the creature's arms. Watch for the claws!

Gizmaluke (FF IX)

I saw this one was assumed to be the mysterious flying mount shown in the Benchmark preview with Bismarck breaching the clouds. Gizmaluke looked similar and used it's wings to attack in FF9.

Silver Dragon (FF IX)

Kuja's transport of choice in FF9, to my memory it is able to stand on all fours and could likely be used on the ground as well as in the air.

There must be hundreds of possibilities that we could see in Heavensward, I'm personally hoping the Ahriman can be used to fly higher! No suggestions are silly, I'm just excited to see what people are hoping for Smile

Flying Mounts; Which would YOU like to see?
