Flying mounts are creatures or vehicles that allow characters to travel through the air in various fantasy and gaming settings. They can range from mythical creatures like dragons and griffins to magical vehicles such as airships. Players often use flying mounts to explore vast landscapes, reach high places, or escape danger quickly. In many games, flying mounts provide unique gameplay advantages, such as faster travel times and access to otherwise unreachable areas. They may also have special abilities, like combat skills or the ability to carry multiple passengers. Players often acquire flying mounts through quests, achievements, or in-game purchases.
