Meddon is a horse tailed messenger for all mythical creatures. His one job is to go to the gods when the end of time for mythical creatures arrives, and beg for them all to be spared. If necessary, he is supposed to be a sacrifice. Being a magical construct, he was crafted from a series of intricate spells and enchantments. Without them, he is but a statue. A statue built from the inside out via magic (so break off pieces of his outer shell and you'll see stone innards), but still inanimate without all the energies that were poured into him.
He is somewhat naive, but he is very ernest when speaking of something he believes in. He is also somewhat unused to physical contact, but enjoys it when he receives it.
