What is(are) your favourite mythical beast(s) and why? /P Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: Snafu on May 06, 2004, 06:26:39 PM I like traditional fantasy monsters:
Dragons! Unicorns! Centaurs! Mermaids! Pegasi! As for the reasoning: Just because! /Snafu :D Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: garetjax on May 06, 2004, 06:41:25 PM Thanks to Leonard Nimoy (kicking out the jams) and his In Search Of television show, I have a fascination about the more modern mythical creatures.
Last year I drove up the west coast a couple hundred miles to visit the Bigfoot festival and frollick with other believers of Bigfoot and Sasquatch. The Loch Ness monster also captures my imagination. Of course, I guess my answers are off topic because they're both REAL and not mythological! ;) Edit: Let me add Trogdor, the Mothman and the Jersey Devil to the list :) Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: Martinique on May 06, 2004, 09:58:27 PM Modern:
Jackalope! Older: Charybdis! (of course) Mermaids! Zombies! Vampires! Kitsune! Heroes! (in the ancient greek sense of the word: a demi-god cursed with one flaw) Dragons! And I'm sure there are others. Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: Carrion on May 07, 2004, 02:00:09 AM 'Mythical beast'... That takes some thinking... *ponder* Gryphon and sphinx come to mind, perhaps it's the lion parts... When it comes to 'my' (Marvel) universe, I'd say Galactus (who isn't really a beast, but sooooo awesome).

I coded one on Nanny, but it never made it out to the playable area, luckily. It was deadly in a way that scared even my wiz. Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: Sharky on May 07, 2004, 07:23:48 AM I like:
Phoenix Dragon Unicorn Pegasi Manticore Djin, Genie, Efreet Giants, Titans Griffin Ents (or Dendroids) Thunderbird Roc Basilisk Cockatrice Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: Longstrider on May 07, 2004, 07:39:01 AM Who can't help but get all warm and snuggly when they cozy up to a three-headed firebreathing dragon? Hmmm... idea!
Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: Kherec on May 07, 2004, 11:16:18 AM Cerberos the three-headed beast (from when I was little and read about greek mythology and the underworld) and of course Dragons and Vampires.
Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: eris on May 07, 2004, 11:53:41 AM Elves of any kind! Don't know why...just always been partial to them.
/Eris Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: poogie on May 07, 2004, 04:56:54 PM I like elves, fairies, unicorns, pegasi, unipegs, dragons (especially the komodo dragons), phoenixes....
And I totally agree with Martinique. I love jackalopes. They're very popular here in Colorado. /P Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: Valdor on May 07, 2004, 05:39:03 PM Dragon and Pegasus :)
Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: Dissectica on May 07, 2004, 06:13:38 PM I would have to say vampires, of course...and werewolfs. And good old Satan isn't that far away from the hot spot either :twisted:

Elves Vampires Santa Claus *grin* Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: Prime on May 08, 2004, 02:16:35 AM The Loch Ness monster.
I went searching for her once. Mortis scared her away. Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: ladychris on May 08, 2004, 02:19:58 AM Faeries
Elves Mermaids... Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: Qwer on May 08, 2004, 12:43:11 PM So many I guess, as long as they are huge and fearsome. :)
First thing that came to my mind was dragons, and especially Pet. :) Although Pet can't be such a scary monster as Valdor, a truly bored player he is, killed him 55 times. But, still ... many people died up there. Title: 7 May 2004 Post by: Jose on May 10, 2004, 08:51:21 AM Vampires, creatures of the night that can be both noble and wild.
Phoenix , they rise from their ashes. Pegasus, because the're free. Dragons, because of their might. |
