If you could be a animal, mythological creature, whatever you wanted; what would you be and why?

I would be a fairy...they are pure energy and they are pretty too.
Other than that...platypus...they're just so funny.

Aphrodith - Greek Goddess of love, she married Ephaistos and have Cupid altough there are legends that say that she and the god of war were lovers, they were. She marry the most ugly God beacuse Zeus wanna have smth really close to her and she didn't so He condened her to marry his son Ephaitos.

*stares at screen name* what the heck you talking about girl? I am a mythological creature and I'm no myth.

Seriously if I was a mythological creature I would either be a fallen angel or a vampire...other than that I guess theres being on of Tolkiens elves the tall beautiful kind :)

A tanooki. Tanookis are japanese mythological creatures that can turn into statues at will and like to play tricks on people.

I'd want to be a dragon I think. That or an elf (Tolkien kind), but immortality I think would get old after a while, so I'll say dragon.

Lord Xehanort
06-22-2004, 10:21 PM
Dragons are basically immortal. They live until they are slain.

DoomAntenna
06-22-2004, 10:26 PM
Well, that all depends on which rules you judge dragons by. As they don't exist, lots of different people have different ideas on the specifics about dragons. So, I think I'll be a not immortal dragon. One of the ones that just lives a long time. That, or I'll just get myself slain when I get bored, that would take care of the immortality problem too. I could go out in a big fight, like attacking the capital city of some country! Wouldn't that be awesome? They'd make stories about it, and it would be passed down through generations on quilts and stained glass windows and other....... stuff. Like books. :D

Or if its mythical....(ignoring the fact that winged pantheres are somewhat rare these days...) Id like to be, uhm, anyone remeber the TV cartoon 'Gargoyles'? Well, one of them, though I could do without the turning to to stone by day. I like the daytime.

But in all seriousness, as for a normal animal, I'd want to be a... lioness. Lionesses are cool. As for mythological critter, I wanna be a something with wings. I wish I had wings :cry:

Aphrodith (Venus) married Ephaitos (Hephestias) against her will...
Ephaitos is the god of forge... he was ugly and had a limp leg... with nasty red hair...

Aphrodith actually had Cupid (Eros) with Mars (Ares), it was a love affair...

Ephaitos had an idea what was going on, so he planned and forged a magic net that would catch the two in the act.
It worked... and all the gods laughed as Aphrodith and Mars was caught naked and helpless...

After that Aphrodith and Ephaitos had some bad relations after that... (He never got any from her after the incident)

Succubus is a greek figure... she lured sailors to their deaths...

IF someone said you are a Succubus, that means you're irrestiable...


But the question was what would I be if I wasn't me...
I would be Diogenes.... yes, it would do...

Diogenes rules!!!! He was the first Philosopher-Bum!!!!

I thought those were Sirens? Not that it bothers me to be called irresistable, mind you :) Anyways this (http://www.pantheon.org/articles/s/succubus.html) is the definition pantheon.org gives for a succubus and this (http://www.monster.gemsoft.co.uk/Iniquity/demonology.html) is a more detailed description.

Damn right that's what I'm saying. I don't believe that 'humanity crap' which media is feeding us and neither should you. I haven't seen a single Eskimo in my life and I don't believe in what I haven't seen. Sure, I've seen some documentaries where Eskimos are trying to be all human-like, but it backfired at the cause. 3 reasons why I don't believe they're human: 1. They live in weird ice nests 2. They don't speak 3. They eat fish

hmm I was reading a wierd book I own last night and I realised just how cool well logical the supposed hirachy of hell is in this book. There's the devil and then there's the twelve generals of Hell each in charge of his own army and each of a different type of demon. (this is speciffically for the number 13 I guess) the first army is the most powerful all of the troops are a type of greater demon (I cant spell the name without the book and I dont have it atm) but the Second army is the fallen angels, Led by the Second general of Hell Azrael they have 6 sub generals Danaeyl, Lirael, Samiel, Raphael and two others I cant remember it was late ok. the tenth army is Vampires the eleventh army is something akin to lycanthropes (however a lycan is a freak of nature not a demon so it might be listed as lycans in the book but I don't like that idea).

Anyway the book is great I remember that my own screen names history comes from it (the tale my friend made up is based on the second lieutenant of the second army Danaeyl) theres a lot of stuff that makes sense now I'm trying to figure out where the heck I got the book from (it's very old and not english)

Well, first, by Eskimo I talk about what people use it to mean, which is the native tribes of North Alaska and several other countries. So, using that definition, I have seen many "Eskimos", but they are offended to be called that. It's better if you call them whatever tribe they are. As for your three reasons:
1. There are no trees in the areas they live, so you tell me how the are supposed to have shelter.
2. They do speak. The most common in Alaska is Inuit, though there are other languages.
3. What the heck!?!?! So anyone who eats fish isn't human. Yeah, THAT makes sense.

Sorry if I seem to be making a big deal, it's just that I'm part Tlingit, which is a Native Alaskan tribe. Since I've moved down to California, people have called me "Eskimo" and "Indian", which I then have to correct by explaining it to them.

Interesting... I guess its neat to learn of other.... stuff I guess. I've never heard of 12 armies of Hell, but I'm guessing the 13th is the whole army led by Satan. In my practices, 13 is a very good number. But I supposed 13 in whichever religion you're talking about is a bad number and I gather that Satan has some kind of power with it? Assuming that Satan is a part of a certain religion(s)..

Sorry to hear that. And sorry of I offended you, I most certainly didn't mean that as a racist joke. Just wanted to say something nonsense random. Y'know, I could've just as likely said that birds are human, if you catch my drift. ;-) Also, I never knew that Eskimo is an offensive word of them. And just to make it clear, I <i>do</i> know that they can speak and I happen to like fish.
