Skunks are awesome. I wish we had them here in the UK.
I’m abruptly thinking of a eurasian badger/magpie griffin.
African Honey Badger/Harpy Eagle griffin. All the attitude all the time. Or a Least Weasel/ Shrike griffin. Death death death torture death….Oh! Shiny!
I imagine if one of those got a medallion, even the spell’s best attempts at disguising their aroma would still make them smell like a teen boy who just discovered deodorant.
Actually, how do the medallions deal with smells?
I mean they can make a couple hundred pounds of griffin disappear, covering up the smell of the feathers and fur they make not exist is probably fairly trivial. Can’t stink if it’s not there.
Hadn’t heard of these birds before. They’re really cool!! And stinky, LOL.
Can we sea some Palworld totems?
My favorite bird!
Non-canon fact: This is the only species banned from ever entering an Avalon after that incident in 1346…
Skunks are primarily carnivores, mainly of rodents and bird eggs. (I can vouch for the fact that a few stray tufts of skunk fur under a house will keep rodents away for /years/.) A skunk also has a sweet tooth; I’ve seen a skunk sorting through windfall apples under a tree, looking for the best. Raccoons and bears are also carnivores fond of sweets, and I suspect their fondness is stronger than the skunk’s.
From what I’ve read, the hoatzin is a pretty thorough-going herbivore, and most or all of its stink from its adaptations to digest leaves and such. What dietary compromise might this gryphon settle on?

And then there are certain features that humans are likely to notice if you get too close to them, but not by way of smell …
