CandyCornBack Bat-Winged Amphithere

a.k.a Halloween Amphithere

This amphithere is the manifestation of Halloween. They only spawn on Halloween night, particularly when the night is clear with a full moon, and are especially attracted to areas with a high number of trick-or-treaters. They are even known to spawn right inside a bucket of candy.

These elementals are completely harmless and in fact love eating candy. If they ever bite your finger, it's probably because they thought it was a gummy candy. They say the candy corn pattern on their backs comes from people feeding them their unwanted candy corn. This is so widely believed that people often leave out a bucket full of candy corn on Halloween night to attract one of these elementals.

Happy Year of the Snake!!

It may not be my specific year, but I've loved snakes ever since I was a toddler, so much so that I have one as my icon!

Also this animation I made is now relevant again

Flying Serpent: A reptile with a limited ability to hover. Flying serpents do not truly possess the ability to fly: their ability to hover seems to derive from their bird-like hollow bones and the sparkle of Anemo that imbues them with a subtle influence over the wind.

Uhhhh what if I continued that thing from 2019 I posted the other week? It's easy, doesn't require much in the way of planning, and combines both creature design and character stuff that my brain so desperately craves as I finish up the first Acronym Pending story. As a refresher, this is a small little showcase of the different creature types of D&D (5th edition) using smaller representatives. Alongside them are some OC's, some of whom began as D&D NPC's, some of whom didn't. Regardless I tend to recycle characters for different projects. This time around we have the beasts. In the way it's used, 'beast' means any mundane animal... sort of. It equally applies to dinosaurs and animals with parts what they shouldn't (usually wings). The line between what constitutes a beast and monstrosity is thin at best. To represent this broad definition I chose a few odder beasts. Compsognathus aren't in any official printing, but they are in a number of fan-made additions. Because, honestly, why shouldn't they be? Compies are adorable! Most of the dinosaurs presented in D&D are the large ones, especially in the first Monster Manual. But if they can add jackals and wargs and wolves and hyenas, they can add a few little dinos. The flying snake is what it says on the tin: a snake with wings. Rather than going for a straight up amphithere, this is more of a speculative evolutionary path with a snake whose wings are extra large extensions of the dorsal scales and ribs. In canon they are domesticated by a wide number of people for their usefulness as messengers and capability of defending themselves with venomous bites. And then Tressym are winged cats. That's it, that's a tressym. To differentiate them, these are based on Asiatic wild cats and were domesticated far later than mundane cats. Why they have wings is probably magical; a random arcane introduction of wings into the gene pool that stuck due to its utility in catching birds. They wouldn't take to the skies as much as birds of prey but it gives them an edge over other mammals in arid regions. With them is Drake, who's been appearing a lot recently. I've decided to combine them with an older TDG character (and I mean olllllldddddd, like 15th thing posted to deviantart when I was still in Middle School). For now, just know he's got a special way with animals. Probably the only reason he's able to hang out with dragons and wargs and not get eaten.
