What's your favorite mythological creature?

[Handsome Changeling 1,851]

It has got to be a Hydra for me, their such a cool mythological creature and are very adaptable to their environment, from mountains to volcanoes and oceans to jungles and every bit in between, and the cut off one head and grow two more part of a Hydra wasn't just part of Hercules, it is exactly what a Mythological Lernaean Hydra would do, Quote "Cut of one head, two more shall take it's place" A Hydra's breath and blood were so volatile that even the tracks of a Hydra would be deadly. Come on, Hydra's are awesome.

Hypogrifs are pretty amazing. And I like dragons as well~ 

[DubWolf 17,247]

Dragons and phoenix have to be my favorite . Mostly dragons.

[Blue Moon 6,341]

Dragons and Phoenixes for me. I love how majestic they look, and they're just really cool. If I had to pick one over the other, I would go with Dragons, but I like them both.

[Ianpiersonjdavis 512]

Oh boy, that's a tough one...

 

I don't think I can settle on one, so I'll just list my top picks;

 

Dragons, Phoenixes, Cerberus, Pegasus, and Sirens.

My choice is Nessie! She's a peaceful creature,and I love the theories on her.

Got to be the Yuan-Ti. I just think they look awesome.

Werewolves. Werewolves rule! 

[Denim&Venöm 18,735]

I've loved werewolves ever since I was little.

 

 
Kitsune are really cool, since foxes are my favorite animal.

 
 
And I'm also a fan of succubi
(You can imagine how hard it was to find SFW pics)

[Lisa 5,553]

Probably mermaids and pegasi.

[TheRevolutionPony 0]

My favourite would be the dragon. Call me old fashioned but theres something awe inspiring about the thought of giant lizards flying around that just sounds awsome.

Mine would either be the cerberus or the phoenix.

[SCS 7,533]

Dragons, wisps, dwarves, dementors come to mind, but I'm sure there's more.

[Princess Periwinkle 3,775]

Dragons and phoenix are both awe inspiring for me.

 

Just... Wow.

[Kankuro 233]

Most of them. But my favourite has to go to Cerberus. 

Just too cool.

[Troubleshoes Clyde 107]

I like a lot of mythological creatures. Some of my favourites are mermaids, selkies, phoenixes and the Tuatha Dé Danann. And Changlings. In irish mythology, they are fairies that are swap with real human children. Not insect queens that sleep with your hunsband to steal his love.

[gone~ 614]

I like phoenixes and dragons ^^

[Lucky Bolt 35,062]

Oh that's easy...

Pegasus! 

[TheRockARooster 50,763]

What's the difference really between fauns and satyrs?

Satyrs are very lustful and often drunk nature spirits with long ears and they have a horse like tail. They are pretty much always portrayed with big erections. They originate from Greek mythology. Fauns are forest spirits that have goat legs and horns (as is shown in the picture). They originate from Roman mythology. Unlike satyrs, fauns are more shy and quiet instead of being more extroverted and horny all the time.
These days the terms faun and satyr are mostly used interchangeably for forest creatures with animal characteristics by most people.
