So, I came across this video of the most TERRIFYING mythical creatures:
https://www.watchmojo.com/video/id/56383
Do YOU agree?
As the sixth installment in my Norse mythology aesthetics, fly high with this Valkyrie-inspired moodboard:
What do you think?
I had read it on Wikipedia not so long ago, in June of this year (2023):
I don't know if you know of a Norse creature or something (but I remember reading about it and looking for images, there was only one fanart in traditional from a girl who imagined it that way) that had wings and scales on its skin, it was also said that it could serve as a soldier in battle, it was semi-humanoid and it was male.
I'm trying to find this creature for a story I'm writing.

The show would follow King Arthur and the other Celtic Briton knights as they fight the Romans, allow their people check convert to Christianity and later take their country back from the Saxons.
My main cast for the show:
Tom Felton as King Arthur
Lily James as Queen Guinevere
Liam Neeson as Merlin (and this version Merlin would be a respected Village elder and foster father to King Arthur instead of Instead of a wizard to make the show more historical and less fantasy)
Feel free to tell me what you guys think.
Who do you guys think could play the other knights?
Paraphrasing is hard for me, and it might be hard for you too
I use this website that generates paraphrased versions of texts: https://www.paraphrase-online.com/ but I also revise the generated versions for better word choices.
What do you use to paraphrase? is paraphrase hard or easy for you?
Sorry I'm posting a lot
Hello everyone! I’m new, so what’s up?
Like, this is the myths and folklore wiki. Listing examples of mythological and folklorish creatures is what this should be doing. Listing examples of these creatures in anime should be fine, but animes shouldn't get their own pages.
This applies to non-anime shows as well, but I'm mainly just seeing anime pages.
I'm a praying mantis now!
Dear Everyone Here,
As one can tell, my name is Carnotaur, and I am the Founder, as well as one of the Staff at the Ancient Scriptures Wiki. I decided to send this message to the staff, along with my associates, to ask you about Advertising, and/or promotion of our Wiki. Let me Explain.
I founded our Wiki some time ago, and are still working on completing it. It is dedicated to the full documentation of Jewish and Christian scriptures, from the Bible, Torah, Septuagint, along with many fragments and ancient Jewish/Pagan works. I founded the site, and gathered my friends to aid in its formation, because of the lack of Websites, much less Wikis that contain a full sorted archive of religious works. There are websites that are dedicated to this goal, but lack many things, and are sometimes very messy. However, with how the AS Wiki has been built, all of those flaws are eliminated. I have personally found great interests from people over this topic, whether it be for religious belief, or for intellectual purposes. And my goal is to document works outside of the usual canon. So far, there would be a whole plethora of texts to view, many of them very hard to find, and almost unknown to the layman.
I have tried to find Wikis to advertise, and I found your wiki! Unfortunately, there isn't enough traction and the same can be said for the History Wiki, and Literature Wiki, the latter of which we are associated with. We are also associated with the Religion Wiki, which is much better in terms of activity.
Now, I am also a Bureaucrat on the Jurassic Park Wiki, and we a some time back, we did something to help with activity. It’s called a community partnership. You see, one Wiki would advertise on their main page one Wiki, and the other would do the same, making each other sister-sites. I wanted to ask you, and the other staff if they would be interested in this proposal? I do understand that this Wiki is for mythology, and the Bible and it’s appended texts are ether considered historical or mythology. Personally I believe all myths have developed from a certain event or story being told millions of times by many people over the millennia, slowly being modified to fit a cultures view.
However, I am confident that when people become aware of our site’s existence, our wikis will bring more attraction, as well as aiding the Ancient Scriptures Wiki’s growth.
Now that being said, I hope you can help us in this mission to get our site into the public. Thank you, and here is a link to the community:

Enigma, about Troy, so loud is the trojan horse laugh in Troy, sacked city, to the glory, of Agamemnon, and of all,the people of Temnon, after the shame, of the Troyans, and of Hêktor, fooled by Akhilleus... on the plain of Geoktor... Troy welcomed the hors, suprised by the arrival of the horse. Pâris, seduced by Helènê, saved her from the people, of Temnon, and kept her... in the room of Cerènê.

Medusa was once a young, beautiful lady. She married a handsome man, and she was going through pregnancy. She knit very well and would make many colourful, artistic clothing. One day, she kept boasting about her knitting skills, and challenged the goddess Athena to a knitting competition in the forest that day. Soon enough, Athena came. When she saw the difference of beauty between her knitting and Medusa's knitting, (well, that time, she wasn't Medusa yet) she cast a spell on her, turning her into an ugly lady with snakes in her hair and green snake like skin. "Now you will regret ever versing me in a competition! It is I who shall win at the end of it all!" Athena screamed before rising back up to the clouds back to Olympus. Everyone ran away from Medusa, screaming in terror. Medusa was forced to hide in the covers and turn the people who were daring to approach her to stone.
While she was hiding, Medusa's baby was born. It turned out that they were twins, Euryale and Stheno, who looked exactly like their mother.
Medusa, Euryale and Stheno were the 3 gorgon sisters. Medusa was mortal, meaning that she could get killed while Euryale and Stheno were immortal, meaning that they could not get killed. Medusa was a crazy gorgon and would go insane turning others to stone without reason, so a heroic man named Perseus was sent to decapitate her head while she was sleeping. Soon enough, it actually worked, because Perseus wore an invisibility cape so that the gorgon wouldn't see her. He decapitated her head successfully and put it in a bag, running away in fear since Euryale and Stheno were chasing after him. It turned out that once Medusa died, Pegasus, a winged horse and Chrysaor, a giant boar, were born as twins. Only Medusa did have the power to actually turn people to stone, so the nightmare was finally over.
