Shedu

​winged white lion​
  The shedu is a majestic creature with a powerful build and regal bearing. Its body is covered in thick, white fur, and it has a lion's head and a pair of wings. The wings are large and powerful, allowing the shedu to soar through the skies with grace and ease. They are primarily found in the snowy regions of the north, where their thick fur keeps them warm and their wings allow them to navigate through the harsh terrain. They are herbivores, mainly eating moss and lichen. But they will defend themselves against larger predators. The shedu is a symbol of nobility and power in many northern cultures, and it is revered and respected by the people who live among them. They are also seen as sacred creatures and many northern tribes believe that they are the spirits of their ancestors.
