So, the sphynx are my newest brain children:
Winged Quadrupeds with Human Faces.
This is a very rough sketch of all subspecies within the sphynx group:

And this is all the information I have for them right now(copied from dA journal):
Sphynx
Anatomy:
All sphynx have human faces, feathered wings, neck/head tufts and a furry tail.
Dracotic Sphynx have scales on their torsos and dragon limbs/feet/hands.
Sea Sphynx have fins along the back and base of tail.
Large sphynx have limbs of large cats.
Small sphynx have limbs like a domestic cat's, trail feathers, and tufts on the rump.
Mountain Sphynx have longer fur and a bit of fur on the starts of their wings/
Desert sphynx tend to have very short fur, very few have tufts of longer fur on their limbs. Some are bald.
Sphynx eyes are always "black" and slanted.
General behavior: Sphynx tend to act like cats a lot. Their vocalization is a semi raspy mew [Like delcatty's cry but lower and a little more raspier]. They tend to be very gentle and ADORE the attention that others give it. Aggressive ones are generally seen with scars along their faces or bodies and attack anything and everything.
Abilities: The sphynx have the ability to foresee events such as death, heart attack, stroke, crime, disaster, good or bad luck, special events and whatnot. Those who follow a sphynx when they seem to be in a trance like state will generally be safe unless ambushed by a sudden force. In some cases, sphynx that do help their owners/companions out of situations die in their place or the partner dies after they make it. There's a 1/3 chance in being alive with your sphynx, being dead, or your sphynx dying. Both cannot die at the same time.
Two very rare abilities are telepathy and teleportation. Teleportation would make your chance greater in survivng with a sphynx, and telepathy allows easier communication. Only 1 of ever 50 sphynx have one of these abilities. Only 1 of every 100 have both.

So should I request them?

You MIGHT have to talk to Zak if we're going with mythological Sphynx's. Or is it a new race entirely? Cause I seem to recall when we told him Sages have to be some type of creature he said Issac or whoever that character was, was a Sphynx/Sphinx sage.

If it's a lion with wings and a human face/ a half human, half lion thing, you're thinking of Sphinx
Sphynx(s-fencks) have different abilities I think. I'll have to look up his Sphinx Sages when I get home
