Your Favourite Mythological Creature

[BENZOOKA]

C'mon, we've been over this already.

Huan. From Silmarillion.

 

[LandoCristo]

Pickachu. What, not like Pokemon are real, either.

Ok, fine, I'd guess I'm going with a centaur. Always liked the half-human half-animal creatures (centaurs, mermaids, harpies). Something about the familiar with an unexpected twist.

 

[Mallefunction]

Chupacabra...*shudders*

 

[V TheSystem V]

The Kraken

There are giant squids, but none can match the awesomeness of the Kraken.

 

[Jack Macaque]

Yea I'm going with Dragons, ain't nothing cooler than a Dragon.

Unless we could choose Pokemon!

 

[Mikaze]

I'm undecided. Western-style dragons are really freaking cool (not a fan of Eastern dragons) but then again, Fenrir, a wolf so terrifying it took Balder himself to try feeding the damn thing and it still took his hand. Then you've got phoenixes and thunderbirds, the kraken, Grendel...

Bah, too many awesome mythical creatures!

 

[rockera]

Anything that has breasts.

Gorgons, mermaids, harpies; There's just something about being attracted yet at the same time being weirded out by a creature.

I'm also a fan of trolls though. Even before I had the internet.

Gorgons, can turn you to stone you'll have to do it with your eyes closed or doggy style.
mermaids, No problem there.
harpies, the claws would be... interesting.
Trolls , I didn't even know they had breasts
I hope this helped

Spoiler

safe for work.

OP: Dragons I guess, mermaids or the Nemean lion.

 

[Nyerion]

Gargoyles! I like how each one of them is different. And I like when I see them on a cathedral or something like that.

 

[SckizoBoy]

Overdone, but dragon (of the Temeraire vein, you can talk to them and indulge in intellectual discourse, and if you've imprinted yourself on them, they'll kick ass on your behalf)

Second comes one that I'm surprised no-one's mentioned: Pegasus.

 

[omegawyrm]

Well I just finished Strange Journey and I'm going to have to go with Tiamat.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Anything from Norse Mythology really, although I really like the idea of Jörmungandr. A massive Serpent that encircles the world is awesome

 

[warprincenataku]

I've always been partial to the Chimera. My general rode one in Warhammer long time ago.

 

[Torrasque]

I'm all about dragons, but if I had to pick one specific mythological creature, I would go with...

Spoiler: Either Fafnir, the dragon of corruption and greed that inspired Gollum and Smaug

Spoiler: or the Hydra, the greatest 'fuck you" to heroes across the land.

I love dragons because they can be anything you can think of.
Frost wyrm? Yep
Fire dragon? You betcha
Shadow dragon? Hell yeah
Undead mechanized lightning dragon? Yeppers

Most other mythological creatures get gay when you mix them with other elements, or make a new variant.
Dragons just get cooler.

 

[Lord Legion]

I'm undecided. Western-style dragons are really freaking cool (not a fan of Eastern dragons) but then again, Fenrir, a wolf so terrifying it took Balder himself to try feeding the damn thing and it still took his hand. Then you've got phoenixes and thunderbirds, the kraken, Grendel...

Bah, too many awesome mythical creatures!

hmmm, fairly certain it was Tyr that had his hand bitten off. Baldr was the dude that was almost killed by Hodr with mistletoe at Loki's behest.

On topic:
Demi-Lich

 

[CrazyGirl17]

My favoites include (deep breath):

Dragons, Unicorns, Manticores, Chimera, Hydras, Pegasi, Phoenixes, Kitsunes, Gryphons, Centaurs, Mermaids, Gargoyles, Cerberus, Satyrs, Angels, Demons, Vampires (the non-sparkly kind, of course), Werewolves, and the Jersey Devil.

(Phew!)

Griffin, *****.
There's something majestic yet awesome about them.

AMEN! *point to his picture* I am a griffin lover too! They just too awesome

 

[Timberwolf0924]

... to make mans best friend truely a friend with benifits.

Totally read out of context there, or did I?

OT:
Most anything anthropomorphic.

Spoiler

the answer to your question is yes.. yes I am..

 

[Thespian]

I'm gonna use Tony DiTerlizzi (the spiderwick guy)'s illustrations here, cos they rock.

The good old Shapeshifting, Riddle-speaking Irish Faerie known as the Phooka.

 

[Malyc]

Dragons or any other badass flying creature that can deal elemental damage(preferably lots of it)
