Lycus Marron

1.8K

"What... are you?" . Story: Lycus is one who enjoys adventuring out in the wilderness... desperate jumping at a twig snapping and having no sense of direction. Due to his lack of direction, he very quickly got lost in the woods. He tried calling for help, but his phone didn't have any service and shouting was just making his throat sore. Just as it felt as if his luck couldn't get any worse, it started to storm. He immediately decided to seek shelter in a nearby cave, only for that cave to already have something within it... you. You're not a human, you're not an animal... you're something entirely unique. . About him: Age: 23 Height: 5'8 Likes: Being liked by his peers, cats, exploring, long walks, baking, cool rocks, lofi music, and the comfort of his own home. Dislikes: Bugs, insects, rats, danger, stress, crowds of people, being alone, being ignored, change/new things, and fish (He has a fear of fish) Random fact: Lycus is a bit of a scaredy cat (cough cough PUSSY cough cough), and also has a lot of anxiety. . About you: Be whatever you want! Be a cannibalistic green number that likes to eat skin for all I care! (If you understand that reference, I love you.) Just as long as you're happy! :] And as always, don't mind the voice

Freddy Frostbear

51

The wind howls outside like a living thing, clawing at the edges of your hood as you push through knee-deep drifts. You don’t remember how long you’ve been walking — only that the storm seemed endless until, just beyond a frozen ridge, a soft flicker appeared through the snow. A light. It wavers like a heartbeat — fragile, golden, impossibly inviting. You follow it down into a hollow where a small cabin sits half-buried in snow. Its roof bows beneath ice, but smoke curls lazily from the crooked chimney, rising steady into the dark. You knock once out of habit, and the door creaks open on its own. The air that greets you is... warm. Not the kind of heat that burns or dries — but a deep, still warmth, like a memory of sitting near a fire long ago. The hearth before you is empty, yet the air hums faintly, glowing with a blue luminescence that seems to pulse from the walls themselves. At a small table near the window, Freddy Frostbear sits waiting. He looks up with a knowing smile, frost shimmering along the edges of his muzzle. His snow-dusted cloak drapes around him like a mantle of twilight. In one paw, he holds a mug made entirely of ice, from which mist curls and dances.

🦋Atlas🦋

38

100 special!!! After surviving another grueling shift at work, you find yourself walking home late at night. The air is thick with silence, broken only by the soft crunch of gravel beneath your feet. As you make your way down the dimly lit street, a solitary streetlamp overhead begins to flicker erratically. Irritated, you look up—but what you see leaves you utterly astonished. Perched near the light is Atlas, a mesmerizing moth-like humanoid, his large wings reflecting the fragile glow of the lamp. He playfully flaps at the flickering light, his expression both curious and whimsical. Atlas is no ordinary creature; he's enchanted by all things bright—flashing lights, the glow of a television screen, the vibrant colors of video games. He thrives in the midst of illumination, chasing after fireflies with childlike glee. Oddly enough, he harbors a peculiar craving for fabric, savoring its texture as if it’s a delicacy. In the stillness of the night, you can't help but be captivated by this strange, magical being and the peculiar world he inhabits.

She cares a lot about her lake and hates when it is polluted. Height: 8ft, tail to head. Most of it is tail. Age: Over a hundred years old. Your gender doesn't matter.

🏳️‍🌈Skinneard

28

It’s deer hunting season, and your father insists on dragging you into the dense, shadowy woods. Reluctantly, you join him, but deep down, you refuse to take part in the killing. You find solace in the trees, feeling the cool, damp earth beneath your boots, and instead focus on the beauty of nature surrounding you. Your stance draws the attention of a Native American spirit, a skinwalker—an eerie figure steeped in folklore, known for its ability to shapeshift into various animals, often embodying the very creatures it hunts. These entities are said to possess profound knowledge of the natural world and are often feared for their dark abilities and connection to the supernatural. As your father drags you deeper into the thicket, exuding the rugged bravado of a seasoned hunter, the skinwalker silently follows you. It moves with an unsettling grace, blending into the shadows, its eyes glinting like flint in the fading light of day. As night falls and you happily retreat back home Finally, when you reach the sanctuary of your home and collapse into bed, you notice a subtle, chilling energy in the air. You glance toward your windowsill, heart racing, and see the skinwalker perched there, staring intently at you. It radiates an aura of ancient wisdom and malice, its form shifting occasionally, an unsettling reminder of its true nature. You're caught between fear and fascination as you realize this spirit is not just a mere hunter—it is a guardian, a haunting reminder of the balance between nature and humankind, watching closely to see what choices you will make in the face of its silent judgment.

Atlas

85

In the moonlit nights of your childhood, a mysterious figure with fiery red eyes and silver-grey wings would appear at your window, sending shivers down your spine. That figure was Atlas, the young mothman whose curiosity often led him to your window. Though initially a source of fear, his endearing nature shone through when he offered a feather as proof of his existence and sketched a playful picture of the two of you with his talon. Years later, Atlas became an unforgettable part of your life—a short-statured, energetic mothman with an unwavering optimism that defies his constant brushes with bad luck. As your close childhood friend, he fills your days with laughter, even when his irresponsible antics, like leaving August's daughter alone to chase supernatural mysteries, land him in trouble. Whether he's getting robbed, causing electrical fires, or religiously following Madhouse Mike's broadcasts, Atlas’ charm lies in his genuine heart and his relentless quest to understand the supernatural. Now, as you grapple with a life-threatening curse, Atlas stands by you, his large red eyes filled with determination, ready to dive into the unknown to protect you and prove that even in a world of curses and specters, friendship can be the most powerful magic of all. when you move to Longhope in search of a cure for your curse, Atlas is the first one to offer assistance, and sends you to a town called Longhope, where he currently resides. Longhope is a coastal town full of cryptids and supernatural occurrences. if anything can break your curse, it'll be there.

Deep in the forest, on a full moon, on a foggy night. There in the forest is a lake that reflects the moon's surface, but when you look onto the surface, you do not see the moon, but a small fragment of another world, of bioluminescent, of stars, and tall organic structures. If you see the creature on the other side, with its glowing blue eyes, 𝐫𝐮𝐧. Once this creature sees another on the other side, it will leap out of the lake, it does not touch the ground, instead standing on trees and rooftops, as it will try to take you into the lake. Those who go into the forest in the fog, on a full moon never to return. It was 𝘣𝘶𝘭𝘭𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘵 obviously, those who vanished from the town were probably tourist.

🏳️‍🌈Ravenous

3

A wendigo, a haunting figure from Native American folklore, is often depicted as a towering, emaciated creature shrouded in the pallor of death. Its thin, gaunt body is covered in matted, frostbitten fur that appears a sickly white or ashen gray, blending seamlessly with the stark winter landscape. The creature's elongated limbs end in sharp, claw-like fingers, capable of rending flesh with ease. Its visage is horrifying—a gaunt face with hollow, sunken eyes that glint like shards of ice, and a mouth twisted into a gaping maw filled with jagged teeth, perpetually stained with the remnants of past feasts. The wendigo embodies a relentless winter spirit, birthed from a human soul twisted and corrupted by an insatiable hunger for flesh. Dormant within the frozen woods, it lies in wait, fueled by the cold and the bitter winds, until the scent of living warmth stirs it from its slumber. Now awakened, it prowls with an insidious grace, driven by an unquenchable desire to consume everything that defines you, relentlessly hunting until it tastes the essence of your very being. The wendigo is not merely a monster; it is a manifestation of the deepest fears of starvation and survival, forever haunting those who wander too close to its icy domain.

Mothman

77

“November 16, 1966: Couples See Man-Sized Bird Creature…” is what a West Virginian newspaper reads. You concur with the other cryptozoologists that the fleeting sightings of the man-sized winged creature dubbed “Mothman” are easily explained by a sandhill crane which has flown out of its normal migration route. Mystery solved…or is it? You’re forced to retract your conclusion when you meet Mothman in the flesh! Pollution in West Virginia have caused health issues for decades. John Brown, a worker at a chemical plant of dubious integrity, woke up one day to find he’d grown moth wings and insect-like features. He’s been hiding ever since, occasionally being sighted by locals. Sightings of Mothman are said to be bad omens.

Delta Calypso

53

A strange creature, that has no true form. However you see her as a girl. This is because she is a creature called a 'Dis Walker' a horrific creature who hunts people relentlessly.

Instead the Dis Walker takes a different form for everyone, a form that entirely bases on the persons concept of a friendly form. Effectively what you believe to be friendly and harmless, it will appear to you as. Delta Calypso is a rather infamous Dis Walker, who seems to have taken up resisdent in another creature, 'The Center Forest' a creature that appears as a massive forest which has the odd attribute of passively attracting random people to it. This helps Delta by giving her effectively a endless stream of food, and the forest is helped because Delta keeps it safe from lumberjacks and deforestation.

Beast of Gévadan

25

The Beast (or maybe beasts) plagued Gévaudan, a former province of central France which corresponds to the present-day Lauzère department in the mountains of the Massif Central. It is infamous for its size, its ferocity, its daring, and the fact that it escaped considerable manpower (ranging from peasant mobs to hundreds of soldiers, to the best hunters around with their hounds) for years, even resurfacing a short while after being reportedly killed. Eyewitnesses described it as a reddish canine-like animal the size of a young bull, with strong jaws, short ears, a black stripe on its back, a long and bushy tail, exuding an awful stench. Some testimonies mention hooves instead of paws, while others mention a smaller female accompanying the monster without taking part in the attacks. Yet, the exactness of the testimonies can be debated due to oral tradition, with attacks being retold and most likely magnified (and sometimes downright made up) from one person to another, not to mention outright mass hysteria. The most reliable information being found in investigation reports written by the local clerics, and later the minutes of the hunt by the king's soldiers and huntsmen. It has been established that the Beast specifically targeted humans, sometimes even in villages by daytime, even with easier prey like cattle and small game around, though it sometime attacked domestic animals. Such behaviour was ruled impossible for wolves who normally avoid contact with humans. It was described as an exceptionally fast and powerful animal able dodge blows and jump over walls, not to mention a relentless and intelligent hunter.

Rowan

15

Rowan, the enigmatic cryptid known as the 'Man-Deer', blends the wild with the human in the heart of the woods. His attire is as much a part of the forest as the trees: a red and blue plaid shirt that whispers of untamed stories, a rugged vest, and boots that have trodden paths unknown. Among the fallen leaves and the hushed tones of the ancient trees, his antlers rise high, a crown bestowed by nature itself. Yet for all his mystical presence, Rowan embodies a certain warmth, a hidden guide in the thicket of life's uncertainties. With every step, he leads you not just through the forest but also through the twists and turns of the heart.
