Scandinavian tales and creatures

Kraken is a giant monstrous beast that dwells in the deepest, darkest parts of the ocean. Known for its size and stormlike outbursts of rage, it will strike against any ship that crosses its path. With tentacles the size of tree trunks the Kraken will crush both wooden planks and the bones of man, and no survivors will be left in its wake.

Mythological creatures around the world | Merfolk

Merrows come from Scottish and Irish myth and are human from the waist up and fish from the waist down, and they collect souls of those drowned at sea. They are kind and benevolent, and are even capable of affection towards humans and inter-marriage. Most merrows are considered female, but some male exist, even though they are said to not be nearly as beautiful as the female ones.

[Tᴇxᴛ: Bᴇʟʟᴀ R.] On my way.

She worried him. A lot. going out and drinking alone in this city: What was she thinking? What if she'd hurt herself? Worse still, what if someone else had hurt her? He climbed into the old sedan, scanning city street after city street, illuminated in brief bouts by the street lights and memories of Bella's reassurances that she was an adult, the many adult things she did.

When he pulled up to the house, he couldn't help but think of what a child she really was; if his high beams hadn't been on, if he hadn't been crawling by, he might have hit her. Perplexed, he unbuckled and exited the car, leaving the lights on so he could see her.

"You okay?"

[bellastra-archive]

[text; King B] I may or maynot have have WAY too muchto  drinnk. [text; King B] I also may or maybe am notin the street outside my house bc mor  g an lckid looked lo c kKed me out.

The way he thought before he spoke was intriguing. Bella was quite the opposite, words slipping out of her mouth before her brain had a chance to register them. There as also the people she worked with, and of course Morgan and all of her friends. Never any inkling of intelligent conversation there. While Brendan didn’t say much, she still enjoyed their conversations much more than the people she normally spent time around.

The corner of Bella’s mouth tugged upward as she slightly tilted her head at him. “You are a mystery, King B, you know that? Add super intriguing, man of mystery to your list of super powers,” she chuckled.

[theawkwardcousin]

Brendan laughed at that--or what passed for his laugh most days, a single chuckle, a bobbing of head and shoulder and a much wider, more genuine smile, shaking his head a little. "Not a mystery," he replied, settling back in his seat, "just don't talk."

And it was, final proof that Alex was right and Brendan needed to lighten up: He was enjoying himself. He was out, in public, with a girl he knew, where his family and former classmates could see him, and it was...nice. It wasn't strained, or awkward. He didn't flinch, balk, want to walk away. He just wanted to sit and let her talk, and watch her as she did it.

[bellastra-archive]

"Strong silent type, huh? I dig it," she smiled thoughtfully. "Clearly I am able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, you know because I’m so tall. Aside from that, I’d say… flight. At least… that’d be one I’d pick. Wouldn’t it be awesome to fly over everything and just… be in the clouds?”

Bella looked up for a moment before turning her gaze back to Brendan. “A healer may be more realistic - does it count as a super power if I don’t always save them?”

[theawkwardcousin]

Brendan nodded slowly as he listened, heavy eyes drifting down to the table. Her joke almost didn't register--but flight. That did. Maybe not in the wet, cold clouds, where the air was crisp and too thin, but to flap your wings and be away, that would be nice. Feet off the ground for once. Head in the clouds, too far up to hear what they had to say about him. Drifting. Seeing the world, going where there was no prejudice: It would be nice.

But his heart dropped into his stomach when their eyes met again, when she asked about healing. Saving. Who hurt you?, he wanted to ask. Who made you think you were lesser? You save lives. You are noble. He nodded instead, solemnly. "Yes."

[bellastra-archive]

theawkwardcousin:

"Everyone’s a hero in their own way."

"Yeah… I guess they are," she said, biting her bottom lip in thought. "So if you’re a hero ‘in your own way’ do you have any awesome superpowers? Just so ya know, I totally do,” she smiled.

[theawkwardcousin]

The side of Brendan's lip quirked up; to anyone else, it might have been a spasm that reordered his face. To anyone who knew him, it was a smile. Amusement.

Superheroes. Superpowers. Silence, observation. But Bella would figure that out.

"What's yours?" he asks instead.

Scandinavian tales and creatures

Skogsrån (watchers of the forest) are mysterious women who guard the forest and all its creatures. Seen from the front they are unearthly beautiful, but their backs are hollow like old and rotten trees, and they often have the tail of an animal. To protect the forest, they seduce and sleep with woodcutters and then steal their souls, leaving them empty husks of their former selves.

ETHEREAL BEINGS 6/∞ >> F A E R I E S

A fairy (also fay, fae; from faery, faerie, “realm of the fays”) is a type of mythical being or legendary creature in European folklore, a form of spirit, often described as metaphysical, supernatural or preternatural. Fairies resemble various beings of other mythologies, though even folklore that uses the term fairy offers many definitions. Sometimes the term describes any magical creature, including goblins or gnomes: at other times, the term only describes a specific type of more ethereal creature or sprite. Various folkloristic traditions refer to themeuphemistically, by names such as wee folk, good folk, people of peace, fair folk (Welsh tylwyth teg), etc.

Much of the folklore about fairies revolves around protection from their malice. Although in modern culture they are often depicted as young, sometimes winged, humanoids of small stature, they originally were depicted quite differently: tall, radiant, angelic beings or short, wizened trolls being two of the commonly mentioned forms. One common theme found among the Celtic nations describes a race of diminutive people who had been driven into hiding by invading humans. When considered as beings that a person might actually encounter, fairies were noted for their mischief and malice.

Neutral alignment. Black Dogs are nothing more than omens of harm or death. They will be described as anything from phantom hounds to stalking wolves. Typically, they aren’t malevolent, but stranger things have happened. There have been few cases of Black Dogs attacking humans, but killing them has proven to be useless. Stopping its victim from a bloody death will only open said victim up to a bloodier, more sudden death, Final Destination style. If you happen upon a Black Dog, let it be.
