okay, so this place is like an online bestiary. we talk and discuss about monsters and legendary creatures, and give descriptions of it. pictures, too would be helpful.


well, i'll start first.

Zombies are mindless creatures who are manipulated by dark magic. they are usually under the control of a shaman or necromancer. their bodies, though mobile, still doesn't actually function as if alive, thus, it still rots. they are supposedly slow, unthinking but have deadly breath :P

oh, they can also be animated by voodoo in some cases i've read before.


oh yeah, crud. i forgot to mention that those animated by voodoo cannot be fed salt or their souls will be freed from the clutches of the evil shaman.

and uh.....they're not really aggresive like some MMORPGs picture them to. like i said. unthinking.

ehem....i mean...

Lycanthropes

Lycanthropes are were-beasts. were is anglo-saxon for "man" thus, werewolf means 'man-wolf'. lycanthropes have been mentioned long long ago. from europe to India and even china. Lycanthropes are usually human and only change under the light of a full-moon. they are incredibly strong and nothing but a silver-bullet can kill them (though i believe they'll still die if five hundred pounds of sharp steel hit them).

in European countries, the werewolf is the only lycanthrope of its kind there. in India, its a weretiger. in China, its the 'hu li zing" or more commonly known as the fox spirit. there are also many myths about werewolves and movies which depict this horrible creature ripping people to shreds.

oh yeah, i forgot to mention that you can change into a werewolf if you get scratched by "wolfsbane" or something like that. i wouldn't recommend it, though. your boyfriend/girlfriend will never have a peaceful night ^^

i wonder, though, if there is a connection of Lycanthrope type with the environment it resides in...........maybe one day there'll be a were-robot :P
