If you weren't a mermaid or merman, what mythical creature would you like to be? I don't have a tail, but I feel like I have the soul of a merman. I do feel a calling to the ocean, and I have the voice of a siren. But if you had to be another mythical creature, what would you choose? I'd like to be an angel, because I feel like it's in my character. I pride myself most on my heart, diligence, honesty, and purity, so I think it would be cool to be an angel. Like I said in a different post, I was always the one boy playing mermaids with the other girls as a young kid. I always wanted to be a merman or fairy growing up. What do you guys think? I'm excited to hear! Please tell me what you would pick!

Hm... I think a unicorn or a mythical cat of some kind. One of my nick names is "kitty" in real life, lol, or "Misty Cat". But a unicorn because I'd love to be able to use my horn to not only fight the fights that need to be caught, but also heal people. Not to mention running faster than the wind!

Definitely a Gryphon. Or a centaur.

A harpy! Not the Greek siren harpy who terrorize and wreck havoc (okay, maybe I'll wreck a little bit of havoc), but the lovelier type with the head and torso of a human and the wings and legs of an eagle that symbolize freedom and power in other cultures. My main faesona is a harpy named Setorin, and that is my username on FaeNetwork.

An elf. A Tolkien elf. Because they are awesome, live their lives to the fullest, and live in the most beautiful places. Also the dudes are hot.

Some sort of protector/shapeshifter, sort of a nymph that shape shifts into animals from all the elements (except fire of course)
In human/nymph form she would look look with blue and green hair and some sort of dreaded hair with maybe a crown of flowers/plants, very shy but curious. She would live in the deepest part of the forest close to a big lake watching over the world.
water: white koi with bright blue eyes
earth: white wolf with bright blue eyes
air: white hummingbird with bright blue eyes

Lots of Great Opinions! It's cool, because mermaids have such contrasting personalities throughout mythology, that I guess we could all look to another creature for a secondary inspiration. Anyways, it's awesome to hear what you all think!
Haha, my friends and I have this inside joke going that I am secretly a vampire because I have very pale skin and stay up very late and dont sleep much. Considering I also have a bit of Gerascophobia (fear of old age) I wouldnt mind being one ;)

Werewolf.
So werewolfie. The woods, the moon, the obsession with all things Red Riding Hood, feral children and myths of those raised by wolves.
I already call wolves the other branch of the family. :)

I'd be a Demon I love the dark look in demon art I'd probably have a dragon familiar because I adore dragons but would not be on I'd rather retain my humanoid form.

That's nice but with my calostro phobia I'd die of boredom and hiperactiveness trapped in there for long [emoji23] lol.

Hello fellow Angel! I'm often in an angel theme while on land. I have a small set of wings I made from swan feathers painted with real gold. My dad has a pet swan named Arthur Wigglebottom who gives me the feathers! At festivals I go around with white body paint and paint wings on the backs of all the lovely angels I meet!
I'll have to make an angel themed tail one day ;)

If I weren't a hippocampus, I would be an icthyocentaur.
If I couldn't be aquatic, definitely be a lich

As an undead, a lich doesn't need to breathe. So why not be a sea lich? I once ran an undersea D&D game where the main antagonist was a sea hag demi-lich witch. Envision a bejeweled spinal column swimming towards you like an eel.

I'd be a Phoenix, hence my name :)
A pixie, for sure! I'm always getting called a pixie by my friends & festival family... Especially with my new face tattoos!

Nah, if I'm gonna be a lich I'm staying on land with the rest of my aquired undead buddies
