Hehe... Dragon

Woohoo!
I'm an Erinyes.
They look cool...

Mish, the Erinyes are the Greek goddesses of revenge.
( #me praises the Encyclopedia Mythica :biggrin: )

I'm one too...

I'm a gryphon, yayaya, booyah.....I'm da man.....
ok enough of that.

Hmm, nice =)  

I am a *Wood Nymphe*

1. Right. First things first. If you were a creature of classical mythology, do you think flying would be a nice addition to the list of things you could do?
Erm... Please. No.(you dont need a wing to always fly)

2. Would you be a girl? Er... so to speak? ^_~
Ah... no thanks Man will do (very strange question, but im a male, so i think ill stay that way)

3.How many legs?
I'll stick with what I know (what i chosed)

Someone does something to royally piss you off, and tells your friends something about you that makes them simply not wanna know you any more. You...
Leap at them, and beat them to a sodding little pulp
(normally i tolerate many actions of verbal harm to me, but if it gets between something important or umbarable, at times i feel as if i wish i can make the provoker bleed.... but the consenquences may not be worth the cause...)
5. Much of a nature-child?
Oh, no. Could never go out *there*. Need to stay here, alone, in the darknesssssss.....
(figure that was my best answer, i do like the "wilderness" only for solidtude... You can seek dark places in there as well)

6. Got Friends Much?
Friends...?
(friends, i use to believe they exist.... but people change, they change too much... they change to the point where friendship is meaningless, there are few that still are my "friends", but we barely speak to each other... as for the rest, only left me abandoned..... friends... what friends...)
7. When you're unhappy, you are most likely going to...
Draw, Write, or be creative.
(i find expressing feelings on paper, or an object is interresting, even if they are not master-pieces... )
8.Much for Water and Ice?
I'm not fussed. (dont mind either, but i like to settle in a pool, not take cold baths)
9.What about Fire?
HELL yes.(i would like to know who made these ridiculous questions-anyway i have nothing against any elements..... )
10. I was sitting in my huge leather armchair...
Picking My Nose.(... well, not really always the action of taking your pinky and shoving it up your nose , but i have a bad habbit of pinching and pulling it..... a bad habbit of not staying still also, but we all got bad habbits)
11. Lizards.
Sweet little things. Make great pets.(all animals can be tamed, or forced to be controled)

12. Invader Zim.
? (what the heck is that?)

13. World...
Destruction. (all things will die, parish, and face Destruction, its only the matter of time)
14. Pick an environment.
Woods.(its a nice place to be... all alone, in the shade, sunny day as clouds pass, and you hear the river splashes near by.... but dont let your guard down, danger is in presence as well at times, human or animal)
15. If you were a mythological creature... would you pee in the bathtub?
...Who you been talking to?!(where does he get these ..... "questions" from? Monkeys?)

16. Too many questions?
Nah, I'm good (homework has a average of 20-30 questions, quizes 30, test 50, exams 200)
17. One more, then. As a mythological creature, would you sooner be...
One with aspects of mortal creatures.(away from human traits,.... but dont wonder to far)

Those were the questions i answered, and this is the result.

"Congrats... You're an Orc. You're green and ugly "





I find myself satisfied, but insulted as well.

Apparently if I was a mythological creature I would be a phoenix.

(Edited by Korwin at 11:12 pm on Aug. 29, 2002)

(Edited by Vindigan at 3:35 am on Aug. 30, 2002)

Oh oh, I am a Gryphon too...
I hope we won´t have a battle for our nest, mannelig

lol im a incubus, he'll yea, arent i related to a succabus? =)

IM A FRICKEN ORC!!!!!!

@AndrewHorton
Yes, both of them are hansom human forms, daemons in discuise.

This daemon uses a appearence of a female mortal, to have "a night" with a mortal male. Using their charm, they seduce their mortal male counterparts, and eventually causes them to suffer eternal damnation. The offspring born from the Succubus is a Cambion, which is semi-human. This trait causes them to be more kindly diposed to the human and the first 7 years of a Cambion's life, it doesnt show any signs of life.


Incubus are male daemons, viewed by female mortals as a very hansom being. The job of the Incubus is to possess mortal females, as they sleep and results in the female giving birth to other daemons, whiches, and deformed babies.
Incubus and Succubus is both said to be fallen angels.

================================


@drag
Nothing wrong with an orc. Be proud of your mythical personality, for they are honorable and brave ones, who has great loyalty to their kinds, friends, and masters.

better stay away from my nest...I'm contemplated my LAST deed....

I'm a sphinxs!!!!! that seems to fit, though i can't imagine it to be a mytistic creature....

Safun sighs...  I'm a Phoenix!

            :cheesy:

Well It would appear that I'm a Wood Nymphe.

@Niwatariel
you think correct, for the Sphinx is Mythical, not Mystical.

Head of a beast, man, or God/Gods, and one who possess the body of a loin or woman and may even have wings, the Sphinx though can be destructive, it stands tall as the symbol of power, knowledge and wisdom. The sphinx in Greek Myth was a agent of the gods, who killed those who failed to answer its riddle of
“What walks on four feet in the morning, on two at noon, and on three in the evening?”
and when Oedipus answered the question correctly, the Sphinx braught on its own destruction, ending its life.

@Safun

As we all should know the dragons counter rival, the phoenix. Traits of a Phoenix is its a beautiful bird that is able to regenerate itsself. Its a symbol of sacredness, death, and reserrection from the dead. The Phoenix is believed to live up to 500 years, then it would die and burn itself in the sun, or a pyre of flames, and from its own ashes, arise another Phoenix.

@Inioch Hope.

In real life, these are accually butterflies that live in tall grassy wet meadows or woodlands. In Myth, Wood Nymph is a forest Dryad. Dryads are know to the the "children of the forest" for the love and care for the forest so much. A loss of a tree is like a lost of a child to the dryads. Many claim dryads are so rare, that the are simply dreams of trees. Other dryads are just feminine spirit of the trees. Nymph or Dryads act as the primary guardian of the trees or nature itself. When a Nymph is born, she would be given trees that is her duty to watch over.  Hamadryad lives in the trees they protect and is strongly bonded with the trees. If the tree would be harmed, or dies, the life of the dryad would parish or be injured as well. If such a infliction was caused by mortal hands, then the gods will punish whomever is responcible, and so will the dryads themselves.

Okay . . . . I think something went wrong with mine, I don't like water but i got 'Kelpie' meaning i 'like to drown people'. I think some of the questions are confusing and a little missleading, but its a little bit of fun to pass the time.

Anyone know a good webiste where I can find lots of information of these types of mythological creatures?

hehe, I am also centaur, I guess it sort of fits in with Rangers...

The Encyclopedia Mythica

They have information about almost every god or creature from all continents.

Or read a lot of fantasy like I did when I was young (okay, I still do).

Lord of the Ring series is a must.  Anyone who hasn't read the Lord of the Rings series should stop what they're doing, this second, run to the bookstore and buy them.  What, you're still sitting there?

Finished reading a story a few weeks ago that had the Phoenix in it.  Sir Apropos of Nothing by Peter David.  A little pulp, but not too shabby.

Or, even better yet, run out to your local gaming store and pick up a AD&D (Advanced Dungeons and Dragons) Monster Manual.  Even if you don't play D&D there are some interesting monsters in there.  Some of their own invention, some from mythology.

@Khanja


Kelpies, are mythical creatures that live in the Loch Ness in Scottland, and is believed to be one of the stories to the lochness monster. But kelpies traits are quite evil and deciteful. Another one of the daemons in discuise, like mermaids and the incubus/succubus traits. Kelpies are creatures or daemons that might appear in a horse, or human form. As a horse, it will be a magnificant looking horse, and when a victim comes and ride it, he or she becomes stuck, or paralized, therefore unable to get off. Once mounted, the victim is rode into the river and devoured, alive, or after he or she has drowned. When in a human form, they may be a very clumsy and hairy human-like. They wait for other horsemen to pass by, and jumps and attacks, as the horse rides off with out a rider, along the bank of the river, the man is draged to his death in the lake itself. If taken as a female form, it will attract its male victim. The Kelpie will be sitting on a rock near the shore as bait, and when the alured male comes, deeper and deeper, swimming to the maiden, it will be taken by other Kelpies and again, drown to its doom. These traits, the luring, the sweeping away, the "devouring" may/can sound romantic on the side of romance, but if it is used as the side of evil intents, drowning them or killing the then, helpless victim is obvious not far from your options is that?

(as for the way they rate, its based on majority of the traits, ... a kelpie can be on land or water, the water is only its hideout, and it doesnt mean it likes it.  But again, not ALL the traits have to match to be what you are.)
