[@Elgappa] Decided to come up with some more animals and ended up with some myths instead and an friendly animal. [quote]The Beast of Kyburgrad "Be a good-good child or the Beast of Kyburgrad will eat you-you!" - Common scolding of children in the village of Greyfur; no longer said said village wiped out by something, leaving no survivors and no ruins to pick at. A mythical monster said to have single handly destroyed the city-state of Kyburgrad and left it in bloody ruins, no one knows who or what the Beast of Kyburgrad is. Some say it is a blood starved Stinker while more superstious folk claim its a possessed spirit who punishes the unworthy and unfaithful. However, the darkest rumor says it is actually a Small who survived being fed Pink-Corn and became a hideous monster who made a dark pact to purge the mall of life. More than a few Rats have used this to justify actions against Smalls, but that doesn't explain why not even Smalls are spared when this monster supposidly "attacks". Its said that calling its full name will bring the beast to you for it can hear from a thousand miles away and thus those few who talk of it call it the "K-Beast". [hr] The One Reborn "I will not go there! You know the stories, ratling and so do I! Now let me through or I will eat all of you! Nothing you can pay me will get me to run down that accursed hallway!" - Brave-Tail, Mercenary Skulker "O-oh by the Creators! What horror-horror I seen-seen! Its form-form, it burns into my eye-eyes! Yes-yes! Creators above help me-me!" - Jikjag "the Mad" after apparently witness the One Reborn; burned at the stake for heresy and insanity The story of Doctor Frankenrat's Folly is told across countless schools and colleges, of how someone who was blinded by his own ambition and delusion fused together dozens of dead rats and Smalls and even a Winged One a Furred One and pumped it full of sustance the Creator's left behind along with clockwork machinery. The abomination that resulted was a tortued beast with many heads and limbs, all crying in pain and agony, full of unbriddled raged at the constant pain it feels. After devouring Frankenrat and his assistants, the undead monster charged into the deepest, darkest recesses of the Mall where only its etheral cries and blood curling howls can be heard, sending shivers down even the spines of Skulkers and Stinkers. It is much to Origlio's shame that they are directly responsible for the creation of the "One Reborn" as Frankenrat was their brightest student who never understood the concept of "ethics". [hr] Jormungand, the World Eater (Giant Fucking Danger Noodle) "As the Tales have fortold, The black beast of cold, When brothers waged battle, They hear the deathly black rattle Of Jormungand, Bane of Rats! Who leave not a scrap, For when his hunger unfurls, He shall devour the world!" - Song of Skalabrimbor, an Ancient Prophecy In the oldest of tales speaks of a great slumbering beast that sleep deep within the bottom floor of the Mall who is said to once have nearly brought the Mall to ruin before being put under a spell by the mythical wizard, Skalabrimbor the Wise. According to old myths, when the Mall is divided and its people slaughter each other, their blood will seep through the floors and awaken the World Eater Jormungand, named after a passage in a book the creators left behind called "Viking Myths for Kids". Some claim that the Great Schism nearly awoke the beast and is what caused the superstitous to push for peace. [hr] Swift Tails (Squirrels) "Themagestyrequestyourprensenceatthenextcoucilmeetingmilord!" "...What did you just say?" - Conversation between a Swift Tail messenger and a local lord. Nible and quick, Swift Tails sometimes inhabit the upper levels of the Mall in search of berries or fruits or seeds. Its not uncommon for Rats to pay these Swift Tails to deliver messages across great distances faster than any courrier ever could. However, given their rapid speech, the message sometimes becomes unintelligable without the help of a translator![/quote]
