Question for YOU!

Question for all the brothers and sisters who enjoy reading this blog, what creature should be on the next Cryptozoology?

History #3

Avantis lived a perfectly normal life, well as normal as someone can live being isolated from the entire world. Avantis had a mentor that kept the family location a secret; a man by the name of Sanctus. Sanctus trained Avantis how to live, hunt, fight, and most importantly how to cast magic; this is one of the most defining moments in history because Avantis was the first mage to be taught by a human instead of a Angel or Demon.

Avantis trained for many years as war ravaged the world around him. At the age of 14 the most incredible thing happened, the moment that would spiral into TatsuKhan's downfall. Avantis was supposed to learn to hunt without tracks, Sanctus had laid down a track he was supposed to follow but Avatis accidentally followed a different path one that led to a real creature. A Dragon.

Avantis approached the Dragon, before he got close the Dragon spoke to him, telepathically, "Take one more step if you do not wish to see tomorrow." the Dragon snapped its jaws. Avantis saw the Dragon was injured and, without hesitation, rushed to the Dragon's aid. "You're hurt. let me heal you." The Dragon was resentful at first but unable to fight back since the wounds were too severe. The Dragon then realized this human actually wished to help. This magical moment, where two souls who should hate each other; one helps the other with no regard for his life, this moment is what started the change for the new world. It didn't matter to Avantis if this creature was a fearsome Dragon, a gentle Pixie, a Coloured man, Woman; all that mattered was he was able to help, so he did.

After the Dragon was healed Avantis started conversing with him. His name was Draco, he was fighting a group of mortals when one fired a sliver dipped arrow at him, causing him to crash. "Why would you fight mortals?" Avantis asked as he did not know of the war. "Because they are the enemy." Draco said this as if it was obvious. "Magic is superior to man and so it must rule him." "But my father is a mage and my mother is a mortal. That makes me half mortal, and it took ALL of me to save you from the brink of death." These words resonated with Draco. As he pondered these words, Sanctus went looking for Avantis and when he found the boy he was shocked at what he saw. He saw the first ever Dragon Rider, Avantis was riding Draco straight up and out of the forest he had been imprisoned in for so long...

History #2

Humanity lived at peace for many centuries but as any philosopher will tell you "all good things must come to an end." As you can read in Crptozoology #2 a war took place for seventeen years and was ended by a mage of the name Avantis. Avantis's father was a mage fighting in TatsuKahn's army; his mother was a MORTAL. A union like this would never had been allowed so they met in secret. Eventually, they had a son named Avantis which means "Winged Hope". Avantis stayed with his mother and no one questioned the origin of the baby.

When Avantis started showing signs of having magic his mother panicked. Later, when she showed the signs to his father he knew what this would entail; the sentinels would come then steal Avantis for TatsuKahn and he couldn't let them do that to his only son so they ran away. Since the father was a general in the army he knew all the tricks they would do to come get them but eventually they found a safe haven, a isolated cabin in the woods......

History #1

Starting with as far back as I can remember...

When the world was young, humanity was innocent. Friends with the forms of life around them. whether they were in the Heavens, the Underworld or the creatures that walked among them. Humanity came out of the caverns on Earth after the first war between the Heavens and the Underworld (that's a story for another day.) No one knows who was first but eventually humans found shards from the fallen weapons and armour from the Heavens and the Underworld. After long exposure from the magic shards some people started to develop magical abilities. A Monarchy like system was developed, with the strongest or smartest mortals on the throne, 12 kingdoms were made and in every kingdom there was a court mage. each mage in those early days was visited by both an angel and a demon, they were shown what both types of magic could do then the mage was given a choice on which to study. Oh, how humanity has grown...

The Leviathan

The Leviathan was, if you should wish
To call him so,-the King of Fish.
Though having neither gills nor scales,
His title should be Prince of Whales.
While too small waisted to provide
The Leviathan has been known to pack
A Drowning Sailor on his back
And bear him safely into port,-
He was a Taxi, in short.

The Phoenix

The Phoenix was, as you might say,
The burning question of his day:
The more he burned, the more he grew
Splendiferous in feathers new.
And from his ashes rising bland,
Did business at the same old stand.
But though good people went about
And talked, they could not put him out.
A wondrous bird-indeed, they say
He is not quite extinct to-day.

Cerberus

Dear friend, should you chance to go
To the devil down below
You're see Cerberus at the gate,
His anger will not wait
Don't say "Good dog!" and hope thereby
His three ferocious Heads to pacify.
What though he try to be polite
And wag his Tail with all his might,
How shall one friendly Tail
Against three angry Heads prevail?
The Heads must win.-What puzzles me
Is why in the devil's home there should be
A Watch dog; all that I could do was surmise,
Isn't this the last place anyone would burglarize.

A Poem about the Phoenix

Beautiful, glorious and sacrificing self for renewel,

you build a pyre and set yourself ablaze. For the

sake of self. Red bird of fire you come forth through

your ashes a new bird shedding the old self which no

longer is needful. You embrace your new strength and

fly to the heights of the sky to the city of the sun and

give the ashes unto the alter of the sun god for your

immortality. Embrace yourself for you are a child of

the sun and will live eternal through birth, death, and

renewal! The spirt never dies!

The Feud Between Vampires & Lycans

I will explain a constantly asked question I get, "Why do Vampires & Lycans fight each other?" It all goes back to the 1400s, where Vampires were hidden in plain sight and Lycans were forced out of hiding.

People had started to find more and more Lycans in their homes, schools, churches and neighborhoods. When they did find one they would wait until the dead of night and strap the man's/woman's limbs to a board with sliver laced rope and then they would cut off the head and feed it to their hunting dogs (so they would develop a taste for it.) Eventually, the Lycans learned that they were being hunted and started fleeing to the current Lycan king (Saragraph Van Less). They implored him to help them and the king judged that they would take refuge with the current Vampire lord (Vlad III A.K.A. Vlad the Impaler).

When they arrived, Vlad had the choice to either help them or shove them away. The two leaders conversed in private, Saragraph pleaded for sanctuary and Vlad refused because with the Lycans gone, Vlad would assume a seat on the council of Magi which Vampires had been trying to obtain for centuries. When the Lycans were leaving, Saragraph said one last thing to Vlad "Watch your sides, Vlad." and with that the Lycans left.

Months went by and Vlad began to grow paranoid, he knew that Lycans were very good at being stealthy and therefor, was always on guard. Pretty soon he became so paranoid that whenever someone walked in to his castle, he would throw sliver at them then tell them to pick it up, if they did so with no problem, he would see them. The Lycans tried several times to kill him, never reaveling their true nature.

Finally, one day a woman came to Vlad and told him that her farm was attacked by a big, great, wolf. Vlad took his most trusted mortal generals, Vlad's first mistake, and they rode off to the farm. When they arrived they spilt up, Vlad's second mistake. When Vlad called for them all he heard was howling in response. Saragraph approached him and said, "I told you to watch your sides. You Vamps, always think you are SO smart that you don't even see that the people closest to you are WOLVES".

It was true; Saragraph had switched Vlad's generals with some of his own men. Then the hunt was on. Saragraph chased Vlad all the way through the forest that nestled near the farm, Vlad's third mistake, when they reached a clearing Vlad tried to fight Saragraph, Vlad's fourth and final mistake. The last sentence I typed is the root of the modern feud; Vampires think that Saragraph swung first while Lycans think that Vlad did. Since no one else was around, there is no way of knowing. Whoever swung first would have been sentenced to death by the council.

On a normal night, the two would have been evenly matched but, what Vlad was forgetting was, IT WAS A FULL MOON. Saragraph destroyed Vlad with ease and by the time the two Lycans had caught up with them, it was over.

After that the new Vampire lord decreed that Lycans were the number one enemy of the Vampires. Lycans felt the same towards Vampires.

The Difference Between A Lycanthrope & A Werewolf

A Lycanthrope or Lycan for short is not compelled by the lunar cycle. They can "shift" at any time of day. On a full moon a Lycan will be easier to agitate. In wolf form they are plenty more powerful. A werewolf on the other hand is a slave to the lunar cycle. On a full moon, they will have almost no control of their actions. A more experienced wolf may be able to control his/her's actions. During a lunar eclipse, a werewolf will have all the capabilities of a Lycan. Sliver effects both but, in different ways. Because werewolves are a sub-spieces. Sliver burns a werewolf but, only annoys a Lycan. A Lycan can learn to ignore the effects of sliver.

There are three diffrent way to become a werewolf but are only two ways to become an Lycan. The three ways to become a werewolf are: by bite, by blood or by magic. You can become a Lycan by blood or magic but if a Lycan bites you you will be come a werewolf.

There are different classes of Lycans: Omega, Beta, Alpha, King. A lycan can "evolve" only during a "hunter" or blue moon. Werewolfs are shunned by Lycans because they are like Dogs compared to Lycans.

Werewolves part 1

The first of our kind...http://www.bloodylexicon.com/monsters/aurvergne-werewolf/
The story starts out like this. A hunter goes up to a man who owns several acres, for permission to hunt on his land. The man agrees, provided that the hunter brings back some of the catch to the landowner. The hunter goes on his way and after several hours of seeing nothing at all, he was attacked by a giant wolf. He tried to shoot it repeatedly, but the wolf wasn’t phased at all or even wounded. The hunter was down to fighting it with just his hands when he managed to grab his knife from his belt. He wasn’t able to kill it, but he did manage to cut off one of the wolf’s enormous paws.
Keeping with the original deal, the hunter returned to the landowner with the wolf’s paw. To the gentleman’s disbelief the paw changed into a woman’s hand with a ring on the finger. He ran into the kitchen where his wife was cooking and found his wife hiding one of her arms in her apron. He grabbed her arm and saw that her hand was missing. The woman later confessed that she transformed herself into a wolf so that she could attend a sabbat. In Ryon, she was then burned alive at the stake.
This is the first "recorded" wolf.

Werewolves part 2

Here is the first of the "turning" wolves... http://www.bloodylexicon.com/monsters/beast-of-gevaudan-1764-1767/ There was an estimate of 210 attacks, which resulted in 113 deaths, 49 injuries July 1764 to June 1767. Up to 98 of the slain victims were partly eaten, while the rest of the slain were mutilated beyond recognization. About 35% of the injured truned the next Full Moon. They were then captured and taken to the Lycan King. He Executed 10 of them & trained the rest.

The Basics

The World is not how you perceive it. There is a secret that not many are entitled to. Think about what you think is false, Vampires, Werewolves, Fairies, Pixies, Elves, Trolls… These creatures are real. But, it is not just that. There is a hidden history of mankind. We stay in the shadows to serve the light. I will try to explain to you all the TRUE HIDDEN WORLD.
