SO MANY FREAKIN THREADSSS dies
Sorry, I got confuzzled with what thread I was on. My bad.
I am always disappointed when I read stories that feature werewolves especially, because they feel even more generic than vampires because of just how many different human shapeshifters and half-human half-other-creature combinations there are. Selkies work in a very similar way to werewolves, but they’re so hard to find unless they’re one of many, or it’s a specific folk tale. So many creatures just never get any of the attention they deserve…
I can’t think of anything specifically that I’d love to see, but I would just love to actually get to see things from other cultures and get so much more variety of things to see!
me seeing myself being an absolute nerd
Wendigos and Cockatrice scare me-
But here’s some faves:
-
Sphinx (The riddle ones that won’t kill you firsthand)
-
Dragons which are already widely popular!
-
Hydra Dunno something about fighting one seems cool dunno if it’s cause of Percy Jackson or not-
-
Cerberus uwu 3 dogs =
-
Kitsune extremely strong and powerful fox beings with TAILSS
-
Cyclops one eyed giants, Need I say more?
-
Hippocampus, Again Dunno if it’s because of Percy Jackson But I’d take one as a pet LIKE A RAINBOW SEA CREATURE THAT JUST SOUNDS MAJESTIC
-
Thunderbird, Wise birds with strong abilities
MORE HEADS TO PETT
Did you know that in Homer’s Odyssey the Cyclops was never actually described as only having one eye?
Interesting. I wonder where the one-eye thing came from then.
Other Grecian myths and legends! It’s very strange how features tended to get given to these kinds of things
I think it’s cool. One guy decided ‘hey, let’s give this thing one eye instead of two’ and everyone else sort of just went along with it and was like ‘yeah, that sounds cool’
MORE BELLY RUBS REE
Seriously? Okay I’m learning! All my cyclops ideas are crushed
serins. theyre cool as f*ck
I’ve got some dope Japanese Yokai to share with y’all!
Oni
An Oni is a demon/ogre like creature, usually red or blue with horns and a spikey weapon. These creatures are usually seen as bad or terrible luck, but you can make them good sometimes. (rarely)
.
Kitsune
A Kitsune or “Fox” is a Japanese creature that is based on a fox, but mostly seen with nine tails and they usually have a mark on their head. These creatures are said to be able to transform into beautiful women and attract men. They are usually bad creatures (preying on men) but you can make them good too, like the oni.
Kappa
A Kappa is a turtle like creauture that are seen living on rivers. They will usually drown people who swim in their lake, and a way you can save yourself is by giving them a cucumber.
Rokurokubi
Some women get cursed when they commit a sin like neing unfaithful to their partner, in which even if the partner was the one that was unfaithful, the woman isusually the one who gets cursed. Her head can fly around.
