    What mythological creatures do you like the best and why? I like Dragons the best I like how there are several kinds of dragons such as the Eastern Dragons. I also like how strong and majestic a lot of them look and in a lot of games they are portrayed as the strongest creatures of that universe.

    Probably Jack Frost!! (not RoTG, but Persona made me love him) Sirens are also pretty sweet.

    Asides from persona, I don't know anything about mythlogical anything. I've been meaning to start reading it, but I'm lazy.

    The Furies from Greek mythology are what come to mind. I don't remeber all of the mythology we studied in Latin, so between Greek and Norse mythology I'm sure theres something else I like more, however I'm currently not in a position where I can look back in the book we studied from.


    I'm not sure that counts.

    Fairy Tales, Folkore, and mythology - they may have different roots, but to me, they're all in the same boat - Stories and things people made up, for whatever reason, that contain creatures and things that shouldn't normally be possible.

    From Greek mythology I' d pick Pegasus, I know how to ride horses and I' d love to fly around.
    I was born in Bretagne, which has a pretty rich lore (Merlin, Excalibur etc ...), I have a fondness for Korrigans.

    Probably dragons for me. They have so many different looks to them which look great and are in a lot of media. They're a bit overused but definitely pretty cool.

    I agree with dragons, dragons are godamn awesome. I also like Rocs, big eagles with teeth that eat boats and s hit, I also like thunerbirds, a bird with two heads that creates thunder every time it shrieks. I also like, prepare yourself. the flying horse, devil thing that has no shadow and then kills a man by dropping him from a height to gain his shadow, or something. I you know what it is tell me.

    I love dragons especially the eastern kinds, they're the best. I also love griffins, centaurs, and if you've read the series Fablehaven, I love the faeries in that book. I also love elves, and not the munchkins who work for santa, I mean the tall ones, who can fight.

    Of the equine variety, I prefer Kelpies. Not safe for riding, tho.

    Mizuchi, which are water serpents in Japanese mythology that are masters of illusions. Never heard of them until Shin Megami Tensei, but the Mizuchi boss battle in Nocturne was so cool that I looked into its origins. It's another common username of mine.
