Description
since my story is based on religion and whatnot, i thought i'd make a bestiary of the creatures in the NirVanA universe... most of the creature are gonna be of biblical origin, but the rest are based on mythological beings...----------
the Banshee:
originally from irish mythology... said to be a female faerie (spirit) that wails to warn of an upcoming death in a certain family... if many are gathered, death is to upon someone great or holy... their importance in NirVanA is the same as the folklore... but they appear to anyone who will lose someone close to them... they appear in all three installments...
the Adlet:
originally from inuit mythology... said to be the spawn of a human women and a red dog... they thirst for blood and are savages... their role in NirVanA is pretty much the same, but they travel in packs... much like wolves... they play a small role and only appear in the first installment... nevertheless, they are a force not to be reckoned with...
----------
this is just two of the many creature in NirVanA... there are much bigger and more fierce creatures coming soon... but for now, i'mma leave a list of creatures that'll be in the bestiary...
the Ajatar
the Níðhöggr
the Yuki-onna
the Doppelgänger
the Roc
the Basilisk
Fenrir
the seven deadly sins (Luxuria, Gula, Avaritia, Acedia, Ira, Invidia, and Superbia)
the Ziz
Behemoth
Leviathan...
for now that'll do... but i need help with more creatures... so if anyone actually reads all this and isn't bored, can they suggests some material? please?

You can always look in greek mythologies and Japanese myths as well, they have creaters such as harpies, hydra, ... and a snow spirit that I forget the name of... hm... I'll try and remember that snow one.

I know that you could probably find some dragons obviously for chinese, you could probably turn a few of the gods and goddesses of cultures into a foe or what not, and there's always the bathroom ghost of jaaapaaaaan... who is really weird since he licks bathrooms clean o.e

uuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhh... oooooookay, creepy japanese ghost... anyway, i was thinking of adding dragons, but i just settled with one... not really sure what kind of dragon she is, or if she's really based on a mythological one, but she's small, resembles a butterfly, and her name is tanith... and i was thinking of that god twist, but what i'm thinking of revolves around just one god... but i guess i can go on to say that that one god is the creature of those lesser gods... hmm... maybe that'll work... i'mma look more into the idea... thanks!

You can say they're demi-godish beings, like instead of a god or goddess a demon or angel in your sence working for a higher up.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, yeah... this is a good idea! hmm... but i don't know any gods to convert... well, the only ones that come to mind are those greek gods, but i'm gonna need something a little more not known... umm... i'll dig up some info on other religion's gods and see what i can come up with... again, thanks!

sucks... for some reason, i'm having trouble drawing with pencil on paper... i guess i got too use to my tablet... it's like being in fundamentals of drawing all over again!

I still have difficulty with my tablet so I use pencil and paper... though I'm starting to hate how it makes everything look so flat.

i still like to use pencil and paper, but i got way, way, WAY too use to the undo command... curse you, ctrl z! curse you!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ahh the love for the ctrl+z ... it's better then eraser ^-^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
mmhmm... too bad real life doesn't have the undo command... sigh... everything would be a lot more easier... oh, well... gotta make do with the eraser...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Mmhmm, you can't do anything about the eraser for now :/ until science builds the real world undo button.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
then we'll surely be in the age of technology... we're almost there, but if that real world undo button isn't the cornerstone of the new age, i'mma go crazy!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lol I can see it now...
Random Scientist: Yes we have come up with a new invention... THE UNDO REALITY BUTTON! Ever make a terrible mistake? Well just undo it, ever say something OTHER then what someone wanted to here? Undo it, ever forget protection with your girlfriend? Just undo what ever the outcome is.
........ wow that was odd.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
and then "random scientist" has to read out the side-effects and liability details... but when you think about it, an undo button would be the equivalent of a small time machine... like a tiny delorean for everyone! heh heh... though, i don't think anyone will ever fit in it...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
But they can always try!
Real life Undo button side effacts may include but are not limited to...
Pain or swelling, tenderness of the breasts, vomiting, diahrea, bleeding from the eyes, nose, mouth and anus, hermaphrodites should not handle the Undo button for fear of complications, do not use the Undo button if you are 65 or older.
