Initially I wanted to go with a short legged mount, because it would be more unusual. However, I decided a taller mount would make more sense for my characters.
Short legs - sturdy. Good for sneaking. Use claws to crawl up walls? Lower center of mass - won't fall over or trip. Underbelly sheltered from weapons
Long legs - imposing, intimidating. Legs vulnerable. Rider out of range of melee. Fast. Good vantage for ranged weapons/spells. Allows leaders to have a good view of battlefield.
Also started playing around with making it into a dragon-like creature. Only head and neck done so far.
