"Slavery is natural. It is necessary."
―The Silver Griffin[src]

The Silver Griffin (died 420s BCE), also called Silver Skin, was a member of The Silver Vein, a branch of the Cult of Kosmos, who lived during the 5th century BCE.

Biography

At some point during the Peloponnesian War the Silver Griffin settled into the ruins of the Prasonisia Island, off the coast of Mykonos, along with guards loyal to the Cult of Kosmos.[1]

When the slaves took up arms against their oppressors at the silver mines of Attika, their overseer managed the rebellion so that it grew violent and bloody enough to be used to scare others into obedience, but still could be swiftly snuffed out. As a thank you for this, the Silver Griffin sent the overseer a piece of armor, as well as an invitation to come to the Silver Griffin's abode on the Prasonisia Island, alone.[1]

Instead of the overseer, it was the Spartan misthios Kassandra who came, slaying the Silver Griffin and his guards, and freeing their prisoners.[1]

Personality

Regarded as a unique man for his ability to compel others to his cruel bidding, the Silver Griffin considered himself a teacher, teaching slavers control and slaves submission.[1]
