Wyvern

A **wyvern** is a winged reptilian legendary creature often found in medieval heraldry. Its usual blazon is *statant*. The wyvern is a type of dragon with two legs and two wings.  The rest of its appearance can vary, such as appearing with a tail spade or with a serpent-like tail.

Variants of the wyvern include the sea-wyvern, which has a fish-like tail. The wyvern is similar to another mythical creature, the cockatrice, which is similar to the basilisk.

In popular culture, the wyvern is sometimes shown as a non-dragon creature with dragon-like traits.

Wyverns have been described as the largest form of dragon, so large that they prey from creatures such as elephants and rhinos. Stories of the wyvern are very similar to the legendary Arabian bird, the Roc.
Vampire

**Vampires** are mythological or folkloric creatures, typically held to be the re-animated corpses of human beings and said to subsist on human and/or animal blood. They are also the frequent subject of cinema and fiction, albeit fictional vampires have acquired a set of traits distinct from those of folkloric vampires (see *Traits of vampires in fiction*). In folklore, the term usually refers to the blood-sucking living of Eastern European legends, but it is often extended to cover similar legendary creatures in other regions and cultures. Vampire characteristics vary widely between different traditions. Some cultures have stories of non-human vampires, such as animals like bats, dogs, and spiders.

**Vampirism** is the practice of drinking blood from a person/animal. In folklore and popular culture, the term generally refers to a belief that one can gain supernatural powers by drinking human blood. The historical practice of vampirism can generally be considered a more specific and less commonly occurring form of cannibalism. The consumption of another's blood has been used as a tactic of psychological warfare intended to terrorize the enemy, and it can be used to reflect various spiritual beliefs.

In zoology and botany, the term *vampirism* is used to refer to leeches, mosquitos, mistletoe, vampire bats, and other organisms that prey upon the bodily fluids of other creatures. This term also applies to legendary animals of the same nature, including the chupacabra.

The term *vampire* can be used to refer to any magical creature of myth that is a predatory parasite, draining power, energy or life from unwilling victims. Mythic creatures who act in this manner are often considered part of the vampire archetype, even if they do not feast on blood.
Hellhound

A **hellhound** is a demonic dog of Hell, found in mythology or in fiction. Hellhounds typically have features such as an unnaturally large size, a black fur color, glowing eyes, super strength or speed, ghostly or phantom characteristics, and sometimes even the ability to talk. They are often assigned to guard the entrance to the world of the dead or undertake other duties related to the afterlife or the supernatural, such as hunting down lost souls or guarding supernatural treasure.
Fenrir

In Norse mythology, **Fenrir** or **Fenrisulfr** is a wolf, the son of Loki and the giantess Angrboða. Fenrir is bound by the gods, but is ultimately destined to grow too large for his bonds and devours Odin during the course of Ragnarök. At that time he will have grown so large that his upper jaw touches the sky while his lower touches the earth when he gapes. He will be slain by Odin's son, Viðarr, who will either stab him in the heart or rip his jaws asunder according to different accounts.

Fenrir has two sons, Hati and Skoll. Skoll chases the horses Árvakr and Alsviðr, that drag the chariot which contains the sun. Hati chases Máni, the moon. 'Skoll', in certain circumstances, is used as a heiti to refer indirectly to the father (Fenrir) and not the son. This ambiguity works in the other direction also, for example in the Vafþrúðnismál, where a confusion exists in stanza 46 where Fenrir is given the sun-chasing attributes of his son Skoll. This can mostly be accounted for by the use of Hróðvitnir and Hróðvitnirson to refer to both Fenrir and his sons.

Learning from the prophecy of the sybil and from his contest with Vafþrúðnir that the children of Loki and Angrboða would bring trouble to the gods, Odin had the wolf brought to him along with his brother Jörmungandr and his sister Hel.

After casting Jörmungandr into the sea and Hel down into the land of the dead, Odin had the wolf raised among the Æsir. Only the god Týr was daring enough to feed the growing monster. The gods, urged by the wolf's increasing strength and by prophecies that he would be their destruction, attempted to bind the great beast. Twice he agreed to be chained and twice easily burst out of two successive fetters. The first, made of iron, was called Lœðingr. The second, also of iron, but of twice the strength, was called Drómi.

Odin then had the dwarfs forge the chain Gleipnir. It appeared to be only a silken ribbon but was made of six wondrous ingredients: the sound of a cat's footfall, the beard of a woman, the roots of a mountain, bear's sinews, fish's breath, and bird's spittle. Skírnir, Freyr's messenger, brought it back to Ásgarðr.

Then, in the island called Lyngvi in the lake called Ámsvartnir 'Red-black', the gods challenged Fenrisulfr to break this chain also. But the wolf noted the thinness and fineness of construction of Gleipnir and not unreasonably suspected a trick. He agreed to make the test only if one of the gods was willing to place his hand in the wolf's mouth during the binding as a pledge to free him if he failed to break the chain. No god was willing to do this, until Týr stood forth and placed his hand in the wolf's mouth. Fenrisulfr strained to burst the chain but the more he struggled the tighter he was held. When the gods would not free him, the wolf bit off Týr's hand at the wrist, the point afterwards called "the wolf joint".
Spring-heeled Jack

**Spring Heeled Jack** is a character from English folklore said to have existed during the Victorian era and able to jump extraordinarily high. The first recorded claimed sighting of Spring Heeled Jack occurred in 1837. Later alleged sightings were reported from all over England, from London up to Sheffield and Liverpool, but they were especially prevalent in suburban London and later in the Midlands and Scotland.

Many theories have been proposed to ascertain his nature and identity, none of which have been capable of completely clarifying the subject. The phenomenon remains unexplained.

The urban legend of Spring Heeled Jack gained immense popularity in its time due to the tales of his bizarre appearance and his capacity to perform extraordinary leaps, to the point that it became the topic of several works of fiction and much speculation about possible paranormal origins.
Frankenstein's Monster

**Frankenstein's monster** is a creature first appearing in Mary Shelley's novel, *Frankenstein, or The Modern Prometheus*. In the novel it has no name and is variously referred to as "the creature," "the fiend," "the d*ae*mon," or "the wretch." After the novel was adapted to film, the monster became best known in popular imagination as "Frankenstein". However this was incongruous with the original novel — Frankenstein was the name of the creature's creator, and not the monster itself.
Catoblepas

The **catoblepas** is a legendary creature from Ethiopia, described first by Pliny the Elder and later by Claudius Aelianus. It has the body of a buffalo and a head of a hog. Its back were full of scales that protected the beast, and its head was always pointing downwards. Its stare or breath can either turn people into stone, or kill them.

Pliny described it as a mid-sized creature, sluggish, with a heavy head and a face always turned to the ground. He thought its gaze, like that of the basilisk, was lethal, making the heaviness of its head quite fortunate.

Claudius Aelianus provided a fuller description: the creature was a mid-sized herbivore, about the size of a domestic bull, with a heavy mane, narrow, bloodshot eyes, scaly backs and shaggy eyebrows. The head was so heavy that the beast could only look down. In his description, the animal's gaze was not lethal, but its breath was poison, since it ate only poisonous vegetation.

Both authors were probably referring to the gnu or pangolin.

The Catoblepas is a common monster in many videogames and roleplaying games. In *Dungeons & Dragons*, the catoblepas is a deadly and notorious monster; in the Forgotten Realms setting it is even milked to make an exotic cheese known as "Death Cheese" in reference to its deadly glare. Catoblepas appeared in various Castlevania videogames such as Aria of Sorrow for GBA and Dawn of Sorrow for Nintendo DS as an enemy monster. In Dawn of Sorrow, his breath could turn Soma Cruz into stone, but if Soma obtained the monster's soul, he could use that same ability on his enemies. It has also appeared in multiple Final Fantasy games as either a powerful monster later in the games or as the summoned creature, "Shoat". This creature also appears by name in Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga as a boss monster. Although it boasts a similar appearance, the creature does not attack based on the legend. Catoblepas is Monster in My Pocket #20. The catoblepas appears too in Omega, and in the Lost Kingdom series of games, they are independent cards with the usual powers. They appear in the MMORPG RuneScape in a dungeon where they are called catablepon. Their main power is that they can weaken a player that is fightning them. They are very aggressive and appear as a green crossbreed of cows and lizards.
Yeti

The **Yeti**, sometimes referred to as the **Abominable Snowman**, is a humanoid cryptid associated with the Himalaya. The names **Yeti** or **Meh-Teh** are commonly used by people indigenous to the Himalaya , and are part of their history and mythology.

Most mainstream scientists, explorers and writers with experience of the area, consider current evidence of the Yeti's existence to be weak and better explained as hoax, legend, or misidentification of known species. Nevertheless, the Yeti remains one of the most famous creatures of cryptozoology.
Harpy

In Greek mythology, the **Harpies** were mainly winged death-spirits, best known for constantly stealing all food from Phineas. The literal meaning of the word seems to be "whirlwinds".

The Harpy could also bring life. A Harpy was the mother by the West Wind Zephyros of the horses of Achilles. In this context Jane Harrison adduced the notion in Virgil's *Georgics* that mares became gravid by the wind alone, marvelous to say.

Though Hesiod calls them two "lovely-haired" creatures, Harpies as beautiful winged bird-women are a late development, in parallel with the transformation of the "Siren, a creature malign though seductive in Homer, but gradually softened by the Athenian imagination into a sorrowful death angel".. On a vase in the Berlin Museum, a harpy has a small figure of a hero in each claw, but her head is recognizably a Gorgon, with goggling eyes, protruding tongue and fangs.
Gremlin

A **gremlin** is a mythological mischievous creature. Gremlins are depicted as mechanically oriented and extremely devious.

The concept of the Gremlins as responsible for sabotaging aircraft is first recorded among airmen of Britain's Royal Air Force during World War II, in particular the men of the high altitude Photographic Reconnaissance Units of RAF Benson, RAF Wick and RAF St Eval. The story attempted to explain the accidents which often occurred during their flights.
Goatman

The **Goatman** is a Homonid cryptid reported to be living in the United States of America. It is a Hybrid creature; part man and part goat. Some claim it is a relative of Bigfoot. Its appearance is similar to the satyrs of Greek mythology, the Devil, and the horned men seen in cave paintings.

The Goatman of Maryland is often associated with Governor’s Bridge Road, Lottsford Road and Fletchertown Road, in Prince George's County, and with the nearby Glendale Hospital; the former site of a state asylum. It has reported to have attacked a number of witnesses and to have damaged property. It has also been reported to have killed family pets.
Tengu

**Tengu** are a class of supernatural creatures found in the folklore of Japan. They are one of the best known *yōkai* and are popular subjects in Japanese art, theater, and literature.

Although they take their name from a dog-like Chinese demon , the *tengu* were anciently considered to resemble a bird of prey, and are traditionally depicted as creatures blending human and avian characteristics. While *tengu* were originally pictured with a bird's bill, this feature has so often been humanized into an unnaturally-long nose that today such a proboscis is, in the popular imagination, almost the defining characteristic of this spirit.

The *tengu* were long held by Buddhism to be evil and disruptive demons and harbingers of war, but their image gradually softened into one of protective spirits of the mountains and forests. They are also associated with Shugendō and usually portrayed in the distinctive garb of its followers.
Lamia

On the fringes of Greek mythology **Lamia** was one of the monstrous bogeys that terrified children and the naive, like her daughter Scylla, or Empousa. The Lamia had the head and torso of a woman, but the lower half of her body was serpentine. *Laimos* is the gullet, and she had a cannibal appetite for children that could be interpreted as a dangerous erotic appetite for men: harlots might be named "Lamia", Karl Kerényi noted, and the connection between Demetrius Poliorcetes and the musically talented courtesan named Lamia was notorious: Plutarch, *Life of Demetrius* xxv.9, Aelian, *Varia Historia* XII.xvii.1, and Athenaeus, *Deipnosophistae* III.lix.29.
Talos

In Greek mythology, **Tálos** was a bronze automaton whom Zeus gave to Europa. In one telling he was forged by Hephaestus and the Cyclopes and given to Minos. Also, some say he was a bull, not a robot. According to Apollodorus and Argonautica he may have been a member of the Bronze Generation who had survived to the age of the demigods. Europa took him to Crete and he stayed there, circling the island's shore three times daily while guarding it. He threw rocks at any approaching ship. Talos is said to have heated himself red-hot and clasped strangers in his embrace as soon as they landed on the island.

Talos had one vein which went from his neck to his ankle, bound shut by only one bronze nail. The Argo, containing Jason and the Argonauts, approached Crete after obtaining the Golden Fleece. As guardian of the island, Talos kept the Argo at bay by hurling great boulders at it. According to Apollodorus, Talos was slain either when Medea the sorceress drove him mad with drugs, deceived him that she would make him mortal by removing the nail, or was killed by Poeas's arrow. In Argonautica, Medea hypnotizes him from the Argo, driving him mad so that he dislodges the nail and dies. In any case, when the nail is removed, Talos's ichor flows out, exsanguinating and killing him. The story is somewhat reminiscent of the story regarding the heel of Achilles.
Peryton

The **Peryton** is a legendary creature combining physical features of a stag and a bird. Often depicted as a winged deer, the peryton was said to have the head, neck, forelegs and antlers of a stag, combined with the plumage, wings and hindquarters of a large bird. It was said to hail from the lost continent of Atlantis.

Legend has it that this odd hybrid cast an even more bizarre shadow. The shadow of a peryton, instead of being that of a winged deer, showed up as the shadow of a man. This led many scholars of the day to assume that these creatures were the spiritual manifestations of travelers who had perished far from the shores of home, the souls of murderers trapped in bestial bodies, or the ghosts of long-dead sailors.

While the appearance of perytons suggests a life of peaceful herbivory, perytons were far from gentle plant-eaters. This species was said to have a ravenous taste for human flesh, and was believed to have been instrumental in the fall of Rome.

One account, which was chronicled by an unnamed rabbi in Fez during the 16th century, states that Publius Cornelius Scipio encountered these beasts near the Strait of Gibraltar sometime between 237 and 183 BC. According to this rabbinic historian, Scipio and his soldiers were attacked by flock of these animals, who seemed impervious to their weapons. The perytons descended upon the ships, attacking the sailors, tearing them up with sharp teeth, and wallowing in their blood. However, after completing this gruesome ritual, a peryton's shadow would become its own, and it would be free to fly away and life the rest of its life in peace. Each peryton had to kill one man before its soul would be set at ease, and this probably limited the slaughter. The outcome of the battle was unrecorded.

The earliest verifiable account of the peryton occurs in Jorge Luis Borges' *Book of Imaginary Beings*, in which he refers to a now-lost medieval manuscript as a source. The word is completely unknown in Classical antiquity sources and from morphological and thematic characteristics one could conclude that if is not a completely modern invention, neither could it be of any origin earlier than the medieval period. The concept of the peryton became widely known due to its inclusion in the first edition Monster Manual from the popular role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons.

Banshee

The **Banshee**, from the Irish *bean sídhe* or *bean sí* is a female spirit in Irish mythology, usually seen as an omen of death and a messenger from the Otherworld. Her Scottish counterpart is the **Bean Nighe**.

The *sídhe* are variously believed to be the survivals of pre-Christian Gaelic deities, spirits of nature, or the ancestors. Some Theosophists and Celtic Christians have also referred to the *sídhe* as "fallen angels". They are commonly referred to in English as "fairies", and the Banshee can also be described as a "fairy woman".

Traditionally, when a citizen of an Irish village died, a woman would sing a lament at their funeral. These women singers are sometimes referred to as "keeners". Legend has it that, for five great Gaelic families: the O'Gradys, the O'Neills, the O'Briens, the O'Connors, and the Kavanaghs, the lament would be sung by a fairy woman. These families had a fairy woman associated with them, who would make an appearance after a death in the family to sing this lament. Tales recount how, when the family member had died far away then the appearance or, in some tales, the sound of the fairy keener, might be the first intimation of the death.

When these oral narratives were first translated into English, a distinction between the "banshee" and other fairy folk was introduced which does not seem to exist in the stories in their original Gaelic forms. Similarly, the funeral lament became a mournful cry or wail by which the death is heralded. In these tales, hearing the banshee's wail came to predict a death in the family and seeing the banshee portends one's own death.

Banshees are frequently described as dressed in white or grey, and often having long, fair hair which they brush with a silver comb, a detail scholar Patricia Lysaght attributes to confusion with local mermaid myths. This comb detail is also related to the centuries-old traditional romantic Irish story that, if you ever see a comb lying on the ground in Ireland, you must never pick it up, or the banshees, having placed it there to lure unsuspecting humans, will spirit such gullible humans away. Other stories portray banshees as dressed in green, red or black with a grey cloak.

Banshees are common in Irish and Scottish folk stories such as those written down by Herminie T. Kavanagh. They enjoy the same mythical status in Ireland as fairies and leprechauns.

Contemporary usage and depictions of the Banshee give her a much more evil nature, being often used as a foe in series and video games, and characterized by her powerful and strident voice.
Lernaean Hydra

In Greek mythology, the **Lernaean Hydra** was an ancient nameless serpent-like chthonic water beast that possessed numerous heads— the poets mention more heads than the vase-painters could paint— and poisonous breath. The Hydra of Lerna was killed by Heracles as one of his Twelve Labours. Its lair was the lake of Lerna in the Argolid, though archaeology has borne out the myth that the sacred site was older even than the Mycenaean city of Argos, for Lerna was the site of the myth of the Danaids. Beneath the waters was an entrance to the Underworld, and the Hydra was its guardian.

The Hydra was the offspring of Typhon and Echidna, noisome offspring of the earth goddess, Gaia. It was said to be the sibling of the Nemean Lion, the Chimaera and Cerberus.

Upon reaching the swamp near Lake Lerna, where the Hydra dwelt, Heracles covered his mouth and nose with a cloth to protect himself from the poisonous fumes and fired flaming arrows into its lair, the spring of Amymone, to draw it out. He then confronted it, wielding a harvesting sickle in some early vase-paintings; Ruck and Staples have pointed out that the chthonic creature's reaction was botanical: upon cutting off each of its heads he found that two grew back, an expression of the hopelessness of such a struggle for any but the hero, Heracles.

The details of the confrontation are explicit in Apollodorus: realising that he could not defeat the Hydra in this way, Heracles called on his nephew Iolaus for help. His nephew then came upon the idea of using a burning firebrand to scorch the neck stumps after decapitation, and handed him the blazing brand. Heracles cut off each head and Iolaus burned the open stump leaving the hydra dead; its one immortal head Heracles placed under a great rock on the sacred way between Lerna and Elaius, and dipped his arrows in the Hydra's poisonous blood, and so his second task was complete. The alternative to this is that after cutting off one head he dipped his sword in it and used its venom to burn each head so it couldn't grow back.
Shiva

**Shiva** is a form of Ishvara or God in the later Vedic scriptures of Hinduism. The meaning of the word 'Shiva' is 'Good' hence he is called the Good Lord. Shiva is the supreme God in Shaivism, one of the major branches of Hinduism practiced in India.

He is the formless, timeless and spaceless Supreme God in Shaivism. Adi Sankara interprets the name Shiva meaning "One who purifies everyone by the utterance of His name" or "the Pure One". The name Shiva is the Holiest of Holy names. The Good Lord is beyond and unaffected by the three gunas of Prakrti namely Satva, Rajas, and Tamas.

In Smarta traditions, Lord Shiva exists in three aspects Trimurti. In the Trimurti, Rudra is the Destroyer, and Brahma is the Creator and Vishnu is the Preserver. Shiva, in Shaivism, does everything; He is the Creator, Sustainer and Dissolver. All other Hindu Gods and Goddess are part of the One Lord Shiva. According to Shaivism, the Good Lord Shiva performs five functions: 1. Creator, 2. Preserver, 3. Destroyer of evil, 4. Reprieving us from the sins, and most importantly, 5. Blessing.

A Shaivite view contends that Shiva produces Vishnu who produces Brahma and thus creation began, within which the cycle of the Trimurti exists. Shiva also assumes many other roles, including the Lord of Ascetics, the Lord of Boons, and also the Universal Divinity.Shaivaites, the worshippers of Shiva consider Shiva as the Ultimate Reality.

Shiva is usually represented by the *Shiva linga*, usually depicted as a clay mound with three horizontal stripes on it, or visualised as a blazing pillar. In anthropomorphised images, he is generally represented as immersed in deep meditation on Mount Kailash, his traditional abode.
Loch Ness Monster

The **Loch Ness Monster**, sometimes called **Nessie** or **Ness**, is said to be a mysterious and unidentified animal, or group of animals, claimed by some to inhabit the Scottish loch of Loch Ness, the largest freshwater loch, or lake, in Great Britain by volume. Nessie is usually categorized as a type of lake monster.

Along with Bigfoot and the Abominable Snowman, Nessie is one of the best-known mysteries of cryptozoology. Most scientists and other experts find current evidence supporting Nessie unpersuasive, and regard the occasional reports of sightings as hoaxes or misidentification of mundane creatures or natural phenomena. However, belief in the animal persists among many people around the world, with the most popular theory being that it is a plesiosaur.
Gargoyle

In architecture, the **gargoyle** are the carved terminations to spouts which convey water away from the sides of buildings.

Gargoyles are mostly grotesque figures. Statues representing gargoyle-like creatures are popular sales items, particularly in goth and New Age retail stores.

A **chimera**, or grotesque is a similar type of sculpture that does not work as a waterspout and serves only an ornamental or artistic function. These are popularly referred to as gargoyles.
Gryphon

The **Griffin** is a legendary creature with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle. As the lion was considered the "**King of the Beasts**" and the eagle the "**King of the Air**", the griffin was thought to be an especially powerful and majestic creature. The griffin is generally represented with four legs, wings and a beak, with eagle-like talons in place of a lion's forelegs and feathered, equine-like ears jutting from its skull. Some traditions say that only female griffins have wings. Some writers describe the tail as a serpent. See the entry Saint George and the Dragon for a 19th century painting of St George and the dragon, showing a dragon very like a classically-conceived griffin. Classical and heraldic griffins are male and female. A "male" griffin, called a **keythong** in a single 15th century English heraldic manuscript, is an anomaly that belongs strictly to a late phase of English heraldry: see below.
Salamander

Truly mythical salamanders have six legs, and are highly valued by witches. 'Lizards leg' is the hind left leg of one of these mythical beasts. The mythical salamander resembles the real salamander somewhat in appearance, but has six legs makes its home in fires , the hotter the better. Early travelers to China were shown garments supposedly woven from salamander wool; the cloth was completely unharmed by fire. The garments had actually been woven from asbestos. Later Paracelsus suggested that the salamander was the elemental of fire. Because of this, salamanders have often been associated with dragons because of their connection with fire. These myths originate in Europe from the fire salamander, *Salamandra salamandra*, which hibernates in and under rotting logs. When logs were brought indoors and put on the fire, the animals mysteriously appeared from the flames.

King Francois I of France used a salamander as his personal emblem.
Kraken

**Kraken** are legendary sea monsters of gargantuan size, said to have dwelled off the coasts of Norway and Iceland. The sheer size and fearsome appearance attributed to the beasts have made them common ocean-dwelling monsters in various fictional works. The legend may actually have originated from sightings of real giant squids that are estimated to grow to 13 metres in length, including the tentacles. These creatures live at great depths, but will surface to hunt prey and reportedly have attacked small ships.

*Kraken* is the definite article form of *krake*, a Norwegian word designating an unhealthy animal, or something twisted. In modern German, *Krake* means octopus, but can also refer to the legendary Kraken.
European Dragon

In European folklore, a **dragon** is a serpentine legendary creature. The Latin word *draco,* as in the constellation Draco, comes directly from Greek *δράκων*, drákōn. The word for dragon in Germanic mythology and its descendants is *worm*, meaning snake or serpent. In Old English *wyrm* means "serpent", *draca* means "dragon". Finnish *lohikäärme* means directly "salmon-snake", but the word *lohi-* was originally *louhi-* meaning crags or rocks, a "mountain snake". Though a winged creature, the dragon is generally to be found in its underground lair, a cave that identifies it as an ancient creature of earth, like the mythic serpent, that was a source of knowledge even in Eden: knowledge is the temptation. Likely, the dragons of European and Mid Eastern mythology stem from the cult of snakes found in religions throughout the world.

The dragon of the modern period is typically depicted as a huge fire-breathing, scaly and horned dinosaur-like creature, with leathery wings, with four legs and a long muscular tail. It is sometimes shown with feathered wings, crests, fiery manes, and various exotic colorations. Iconically it has at last combined the Chinese dragon with the western one. Asian dragons are long serpent like creatures which possess the scales of a carp, horns of a deer, feet of an eagle, the body of a snake, a feathery mane, large eyes, and can be holding a pearl to control lightning. They usually have no wings. Imperial dragons that were sewn on to silk had five claws, or four for a prince, or three for courtiers of a lower ranking. The dragons were bringers of rain and lived in and governed bodies of water. Asian dragons were benevolent, but bossy. Dragons are naturally good, but some are depicted as representing evil, as in many Christian religions.

Many modern stories represent dragons as extremely intelligent creatures who can talk, associated with powerful magic. Dragon's blood often has magical properties: for example it let Siegfried understand the language of the Forest Bird. The typical dragon protects a cavern or castle filled with gold and treasure and is often associated with a great hero who tries to slay it, but dragons can be written into a story in as many ways as a human character. This includes the monster being used as a wise being whom heroes could approach for help and advice.

The **Song of the Siren** was a civil war fought during the Red Dynasty in Redmont. A war of succession between King Julian I and his half-sister Princess Antonia over their fathers throne, the war was fought from 199 NE to 201 NE during the war both claimants would die and Julians brother would be crowned King Alexander I.

## Prelude

King Robert IV had three children by his first queen, Alicia Halpin, two daughters Princess Antonia and Princess Mary and one son Prince Constantine, but Robert's only son Constantine, heir to the throne died shortly after birth and his wife Alicia soon followed. Without a son Robert began training his oldest daughter Antonia to be his heir, the young princess was included in discussions about affairs of state and sat on meetings of the royal council much to the dismay of many council members. After the death of Queen Alicia in 178 NE, Robert named his daughter Antonia heir and had the nobility come to the capital and swear their allegiance to his daughter, he then named his late wife’s brother and daughters uncle Lord Barthagon Halpin as his Lord Protector and the head of the royal council. The king remarried in 179 NE to Princess Eraehna Raennalys, his cousin and the daughter of King Jaerelar XII Raennalys. The new queen was young and healthy giving birth to seven children, Julian, Alexander, Perseus, Robert, Eudora, Cassius and Apollonia.
Minotaur

In Greek mythology, the **Minotaur** was a creature that was part man and part bull. It dwelt in the Labyrinth, which was an elaborate maze-like construction built for King Minos of Crete and designed by the architect Daedalus to hold the Minotaur. The actual historical site of Knossos is usually identified as the site of the labyrinth. The Minotaur was eventually killed by Theseus.

"Minotaur" is Greek for "Bull of Minos". The bull was also known as **Asterius** or **Asterion**, a name shared with Minos's foster father.

Piasa

The **Piasa** or **Piasa Bird** is a legendary creature that was depicted in a mural painted by Native Americans on a cliff above the Mississippi River. Its original location was in Jersey County near present day Elsah, Illinois. The original Piasa illustration no longer exists; a newer version, based partly on 19th century sketches and lithographs, has been placed in Alton, Illinois, southwest of the original location.

The mural was created prior to the arrival of any European explorers in that area. The "Piasa" may also be a representation of the "Ukena," or underwater panther, which appears in the mythology of many eastern native traditions.

The name "Piasa", pronounced in English /ˈpaj.ə.sɔː/ or "pie-uh-saw", is from the Miami-Illinois word *páyiihsa*, the name for a type of small supernatural dwarves said to attack travelers. The connection between this Miami-Illinois word and the "Piasa" illustration is confirmed by such early French transcriptions as "paillissa", found on Nicolas de Finiel's map of 1798. Etymologies which claim the word "Piasa" means "the bird that devours men" or "bird of the evil spirit" are impossible, and are not rooted in the Illinois language.
Cerberus

In Greek mythology, **Cerberus** or **Kerberos**, was the hound of Hades—a monstrous three-headed dog with a snake for a tail and serpentine mane.

He guarded the gate to Hades and ensured that the dead could not leave and the living could not enter. His sister was the Chimera and his brother was Orthrus. He is the offspring of Echidna and Typhon.
Naga

**Nāga** is the Sanskrit and Pāli word for a minor deity taking the form of a very large snake, found in Hinduism and Buddhism. The use of the term **nāga** is often ambiguous, as the word may also refer, in similar contexts, to one of several human tribes known as or nicknamed "Nāgas"; to elephants; and to ordinary snakes, particularly the King Cobra and the Indian Cobra, the latter of which is still called **nāg** in Hindi and other languages of India. A female nāga is a **nāgī**.
Myrmidon

The **Myrmidons** were an ancient nation of Greek mythology. In Homer's *Iliad*, the Myrmidons are the soldiers commanded by Achilles. Their eponymous ancestor was **Myrmidon**, a king of Phthiotis who was a son of Zeus and "wide-ruling" Eurymedousa. An etiological myth of their origins, simply expanding upon their supposed etymology— the name in Classical Greek was interpreted as "ant-people", from *murmekes*, "ants"— was first mentioned by Ovid, in *Metamorphoses*: in Ovid's telling, the Myrmidons were simple worker ants on the island of Aegina.
Chrysomallos

In Greek mythology, the **Golden Fleece** is that of the winged ram Chrysomallos. It figures in the tale of Jason and his band of Argonauts, who set out on a quest for the Fleece in order to place Jason rightfully on the throne of Iolcus in Thessaly. The story is of great antiquity – it was current in the time of Homer – and consequently it survives in various forms, among which details vary. Thus, in later versions of the story the ram is said to have been the offspring of the sea god Poseidon and Themisto. The classic telling is the *Argonautica* of Apollonius of Rhodes.

Athamas, king of the city of Orchomenus in Boeotia, took as his first wife the cloud goddess Nephele, by whom he had two children, the boy Phrixus and the girl Helle. Later he became enamored of and married Ino, the daughter of Cadmus. Ino was jealous of her stepchildren and plotted their deaths. Nephele, or her spirit, appeared to the children with a winged ram whose fleece was of gold. On the ram the children escaped over the sea, but Helle fell off and drowned in the strait now called after her the Hellespont. The ram took Phrixus safely on to Colchis, on the far shore of the Euxine Sea. Phrixus then sacrificed the ram and hung its fleece on a tree in a grove sacred to Ares, where it was guarded by a dragon. There it remained until taken by Jason. The ram became the constellation Aries.

Mokele-mbembe

**Mokèlé-mbèmbé** is the name given to a large creature reported to live in the lakes and swamps of the Congo River basin. The term "Mokèlé-mbèmbé" comes from the Lingala language, and can be roughly translated as “one who stops the flow of rivers.”

The creature's very existence and identification have long been debated between mainstream scientists, local Pygmies, creationists and cryptozoologists. Most controversially, it has been suggested that the creature might be a relict sauropod which somehow survived extinction. This idea has seen very little attention or support from scientists, who tend to argue that the creature can be best explained as some combination of fraud, folklore and misidentification of other animals.
Cockatrice

A **cockatrice** is a legendary creature, "an ornament in the drama and poetry of the Elizabethans". The cockatrice was invented in the late twelfth century based on a hint in *Pliny's Natural History*, as a duplicate of the *basilisk* or *regulus*, in appearance resembling a giant rooster, with a lizard-like tail. It was supposed to be born from an egg laid by a cock and incubated by a toad or serpent. Attempts to identify it with any particular biological species, often of snakes, are fruitless: it is a bogey of the wasteland.

Its reputed magical abilities include turning people to stone or killing them by either looking at them—"the death-darting eye of Cockatrice"—touching them, or sometimes breathing on them. The cockatrice is very similar to another legendary creature, the basilisk; the *Jewish Encyclopedia* considers them identical.

It is said in the medieval bestiaries that the weasel is the only animal that is immune to the glance of a cockatrice. It was also thought that a cockatrice would die instantly upon hearing a rooster crow. According to legend, having a cockatrice look itself in a mirror is one of the few sure-fire ways to kill it. The cockatrice was also able to fly with the set of wings affixed to its back.

Like the head of Medusa, the cockatrice's powers of petrification were thought still effective after death.

The widespread and long-standing perception that there is a connection with *crocodile* is not supported by *OED* which gives a derivation from Old French *cocatris*, from medieval Latin *calcatrix*, or *caucatrix*, used to render Greek *ichneumon*
Ghoul

A **ghoul** is a monster from ancient Arabian folklore that dwells in graveyards and other uninhabited places. The English word comes from the Arabic name for the creature: الغول *ghūl*, which literally means "demon". The *ghul* is a devilish type of jinn believed to be sired by Iblis.

The female form is given as "ghouleh" in Muhawi and Kanaana. The plural is "ghilan".

*Ghul* is also the name for a desert-dwelling shapeshifting demon that can assume the guise of an animal, especially a hyena. It lures unwary travellers into the desert wastes to slay and devour them. The creature also preys on young children, robs graves, and eats the dead. Because of the latter habit, the word *ghoul* is sometimes used to refer to an ordinary human such as a grave robber, or to anyone who delights in the macabre. The word "ghoul" has also been used to describe cannibals such as Jeffrey Dahmer.

The star Algol takes its name from this creature.

Skunk Ape

The **skunk ape** is a hominid cryptid rumored to inhabit the Southeastern United States, primarily the Florida Everglades. They are often reported to be similar to orangutans and gorillas and are named for their horrible smell. According to the U.S. National Park Service, the skunk ape does not exist.
Nandi Bear

The **Nandi Bear** is a cryptid reported to live in Africa. It takes its name from the Nandi people who live in western Kenya, near where the Nandi Bear is reported as living. The Nandi people call it Kerit. Local legend holds that it only eats the brain of its victims.

Descriptions of the Nandi Bear are of a ferocious, powerfully built carnivore with high front shoulders and a sloping back; somewhat similar to a hyena. Some have speculated that Nandi Bears are in fact a misidentified hyena.

Other than the extinct Atlas Bear, no bear are known to be native to Africa, besides those of the prehistoric genera *Agriotherium* and *Indarctos*, which died out 4.4 million years ago. Karl Shuker states that a surviving short-faced hyaena *Hyaena brevirostris* would "explain these cases very satisfactorily." Louis Leakey suggested that Nandi Bear descriptions matched that of the extinct chalicotherium.

Frank W. Lane wrote, "What the Abominable Snowman is to Asia, or the great Sea Serpent is to the oceans, the Nandi Bear is to Africa. It is one of the most notorious of those legendary beasts which have, so far, eluded capture and the collector's rifle." Westerners have reported Nandi Bears from the early 1900s.
Mothman

**Mothman** was the name given to a strange creature reported in the Charleston and Point Pleasant areas of West Virginia between November 1966 and December 1967. The creature was also sporadically reported to be seen prior to, and after, those dates, with some sightings coming as recently as 2005.

Most observers describe the Mothman as a man-sized creature with wings and large reflective red eyes, similar to the Garuda of Hindu lore. A number of hypotheses have been put forward to explain what people reported, ranging from misidentification and coincidence to paranormal phenomena and conspiracy theories.
Tikoloshe

In Zulu mythology, **Tikoloshe'*,* Tokoloshe** or **Hili** is a dwarf-like water sprite, said to be fond of women and sour milk. He has only one arm and one leg, the face of an old man on a boy's body, and—by some accounts—a disproportionately large penis. He is considered a mischievous and evil spirit. He can become invisible by swallowing a pebble, and comes out of the water to have sex with women, or to fight men. If he loses the fight, he will teach the man magic and the art of healing.

The Tokoloshe, according to the Zulu shaman Credo Mutwa, is widely known as a bear-like humanoid being, and is nothing like the above description, which is of unknown origins. "Now, then, the last creature, sir, a creature which is so well known in South Africa, and elsewhere in Africa, that if you mention its name, people smile. It is called a Tokoloshe. Every African knows what a Tokoloshe is. Some call it Tikoloshe. It looks like a very nasty looking teddy-bear in appearance, in that it's head is like that of a teddy-bear, but it has got a thick, sharp, bony ridge on top of its head. The ridge goes from above its forehead to the back of its head, and with this ridge it can knock down an ox by butting it with its head. This creature causes the Black people in certain places to raise their beds on bricks, one brick laid on top of the other one, about 3 feet above the ground. And you find this all over South Africa." Other Zulu sources also describe Tikoloshe as a bear-like being, similar to the Bigfoot creatures of America and Asia in general appearance.

"Some Zulu people are still superstitious when it comes to things like the supposedly fictional tokoloshe - a hairy creature created by a wizard to harm his enemies." Another similar being is the Ogo.

Usually, the Tokoloshe is presented as an aggressive and mischievous bear-like being, somewhat similar in appearance to the Ewok creatures from Star Wars, that sometimes attacks, abducts, or in other ways does harm to children while they are asleep at night.
