Biography[]
Past[]
Centuries ago, the nation of Griffonstone was held together by the Idol of Boreas, which united all the griffons. But then the monster, Arimaspi invaded Griffonstone to steal the idol. King Guto and his soldiers tried to fight him, but he overpowered them, grabbed the idol and escaped out the window. He then tried to escape by crossing a bridge above the Abysmal Abyss, but was cornered by the griffons. Suddenly, the bridge was struck by lightning, sending him falling to his death and taking the idol with him.
As a result of Arimaspi's actions, Griffonstone lost its pride and sense of unity. King Guto stepped down as king without appointing a successor, and the city fell into decay and depravity since then.
The Lost Treasure of Griffonstone[]
In the episode, Armiaspi's story is explained by Grampa Gruff and shown in a flashback. Later, as Pinkie Pie and Gilda try to save Rainbow Dash from falling into the Abysmal Abyss when she is injured trying to recover the idol, they reach a lower area where Arimaspi's skull can be seen next to the idol, proving his death.
