[Terra Mythica] Bestiary I

~

The experiment continues. If you are interested about Terra Mythica, then feel free to say so in the comments or if you decide to hunt me down on Twitter, ask away anything you want with the #TerraMythica and I will dedicate a short post for it with definitions and/or a longer essay for kicks. Ideally a short story, but that may come after I complete the rewrites.

For this post I have some random beasts, ghouls, demons and critters that are to be found in the supernatural ecosystem and in "Forged in Blood".

Bodysnatcher: Minor demonic spirit. Inhabits recently deceased corpses. Feeds on flesh.

Hellhounds: Minor demonic spirits. Resemble canines. Hunt in packs -- scourges. Accute sense for dying magic.

Primordeal: Elemental spirit. The accumulated spirits of the deceased, victims of a nature disaster.

[Terra Mythica] The Basics

~

Each week, about four days, I will posts these short posts about Terra Mythica, which is the name for my Urban Fantasy world. Because I have planned several series and standalones to take place within this world, I decided to tease a bit with some short definitions of concepts, titles, animals and what not, you can encounter in Terra Mythica. Not too much, though. Here are the basics. These teasers will appear on Twitter with #TerraMythica and a link to this post. So stay tuned.

The Warrior: Speculated divine being, who through his death on Earth has fathered magic and the first generation of gods.

Sanguis Spiritus: Blood of the Soul, Soul Shard. Nestles in the soul of a human soul and enables the use of magic.

Spellcaster: Human with a Soul Shard, who is enabled to interact with reality, altering it through spells and rituals.
