What Is Your Favorite Mythical Race?

[aronnax]

DRAGONS!!!!!

Aren't they more of gods than a race?

 

[Bast]

Dwarves!

Dwarves are real and so are dragons.

 

[Warman17]

Count me in for two. Can't wait for Starcraft 2 to come out..... Go, Go, Go!!!

I'm sure he means real Space Marines


anyway my vote is for nymphs

 

[Cobalt Command]

Wait, would "Krayt Dragon" count as a dragon in this?

 

[PlutonianEmpire]

My favorite mythical race would be vampires. Not counting the "Twilight" crap.

Considering that you decided to put in three things that are real, I call this poll invalid.

A "were" is a male human.

Well, angels and demons can be kind of like Gods if they have enough power. In particular, this big guy called Satan/Lucifer.

So, logically, like angels and demons, dragons can be closer to mythical beasts or Gods depending on their power, I suppose.

Okay, supernatural/faith-based creatures/etc. whatever you wish to call them.

It doesn't matter if one is religious or not, but an angel or demon can be classed as a mythical creature by merit of not being proven by science. It's your choice if you want to take the leap in faith of them being real or not.

So, they will stay "mythical" creatures.

A "were" is a male human.

Oh dear... being in the Sonic fandom, I know people just love to argue about the actual meaning of "were" as man.

But for the purposes of this discussion, were = a human that can shift into another animal, willingly or not. Werewolves are the most common, but I'm sure there are plenty of others due to the rich imagination and stories of mankind.

A "were" is a male human.

I was just about to point that out.

I had no idea that I was mythical. Should I choose that lest I cease to exist? Hmm..on the other hand, myth does not necessarily mean they don't truthfully exist. Humans do appear is many (most?) myths, so I guess we are indeed mythical.


I would generally prefer a wif to a were though, although I understand the Op might disagree.

(Does anyone else thing that just as wif+man gives us the term women for females that were + man should give us the term pronounced like vermin for males?)

Already commented on how this semantics war needs to go somewhere else. Were, for purposes of this discussion, is actually Were-<insert animal here>, meaning a human that shifts into whatever's inserted in the space given.

 

[Perfection]

I'M A WERE-HUMAN

They can never get up to God's power.

Just because we don't see them, does not mean they don't exist. There are plenty of things we don't see, but we know exist. Not everything can be proven by science.

Right on. I always tell people this when I tell them that I believe in forest pixies; for some strange reason though, they still think I'm crazy.
