From Age of Sigmar - Lexicanum
The Gold Gryphons is a famous Freeguild regiment from the city of Vindicarum.[1a]
History
Their regiment has its roots on the duelling fields of Azyrheim.[1a]
Since the realmgates of Azyr had opened, they quickly built a formidable reputation for steadfastness in the face of the enemy. [1a]
