C is for (cookies) Creations

Haha, I couldn't resist doing that.

Anyhow, what I mean by creations isn't world building, a written story, or a clay pot. I'm talking about creating creatures, beings such as vampires, werewolves, etc.

Of course, we didn't create vampires and werewolves (though there are some crazy Twitards who claim Bram Stroker stole the idea from Stephanie Meyer 0.o). Someone way back when, thousands of years ago, created these creatures whether they were based on truth or not.

I like creating new beings. I've so far created two that I can remember. I'll go ahead and tell you about one of them. Starlets are easier to sum up in one sentence without giving too much away compared to the Animus (gotta cover my bases before he's copyrighted, sorry ^.^;;).

Anyhows, this type of being is called a Starlet. I haven't worked everything out about this species yet but they're essentially a living black hole. 'Starlet' has nothing to do with black holes. It actually means a rising actor or a small star, so it's kinda close.

I love taking random words that sound really cool and making it into some awesome type being.

Do any of you do this? If so, what kind of things have you created(if you want to/feel comfortable sharing)?


Laters!

  2. I wish I was a bit more creative! Right now the closest I've got to a "new creature" is just abnormally large demonic house mice that eat souls. Funny how it sounds a lot less absurd in my mind. Starlets seem really cool, I love black holes! :)

  3. Ha,ha, Cookie Monster made me smile very time I saw him when I watched with the children. Great choice for "C"!!

    Thanks for checking out my blog and for the 'follow'! So glad to have you with me!!! I’m still new to blogging and really appreciate any new followers.
    Did you notice that you can click on my main page photo and it will take you directly to Oak Lawn Images, Facebook site and to the catalogue of photos. Or, if you select the link under the group of thumbnail photos, on my main page, you can just view the photographs on Flickr. If you see any you like, I’d love to have the feedback.
    Please check back frequently because I often change the main blog page photo.

  4. It would have been a shame if you didn't make that pun. :)
    The idea of a starlet is really cool. They must be really heavy, though, because of all that gravity. Neat name, too. :)
    Most recent creature I made up is called a Recaller. It's basically the manifest form of something forgotten.

  5. I have a lot of respect for people able to create new beings/worlds. I'm stopping by from the "A to Z" challenge and I look forward to reading more from you.
