Welp
It's nymph time
buckle up because nymphs are a weird ass species-



General Nymph Information
 ==> Nymphs is the overarching term the strange, social creatures are widely know as. They are considered the only mortal group of species that can posses natural magical talent to varying degrees. While many things make the species similar, all 3 are quite varied in general attitude and appearance. There are 3 nymphs, Dryads, Oreads, and Leimoniads , but they are more commonly known as "Unicorns", "Satyrs", and "Fairies". Within each group, there are at all times exactly 50 of each species, no more, no less, and half breeds aren't considered true nymphs. All groups contain a single sex and don't feel any primal instinct or desire to reproduce (although it doesn't stop the curiosity of the unicorns and satyrs) they also, unless cut shorter by outside forces, all nymphs live to exactly 100 years old before they pass on. When a nymph dies, their spirit and magic is immediately reborn in a special location and through a path of nature (varies for each group). These next lives are entirely new children, their appearances and memories unaffected by their previous life. However some rumor and theorize that some subtle parts of a nymphs personality might be influenced by their previous life's experiences, (particularly in interests and phobias). Nymphs also come in extremely varying appearances and are visually very diverse and individual. Each species has a large area they claim as home that typically posses a sort of mystical aura brought on by the nymph's mere existences in those areas for so long. While many kingdoms have shown interest in these areas, there has always been a hesitation to take over these locations... Nymphs are very useful allies and often hard to not become attached to. All nymphs are "born" with the appearance and intelligence of a 5 year old and age at a slightly slower rate then a human or elf. All true nymphs share 1 physical trait in common, that being a white, light emitting pupil that seem's to be a marker of their magic abilities. Half nymphs do not posses these eyes and it's actually hypothesized that if a nymph were to lose one or both eyes, it could affect their magic abilities, but that's unconfirmed.

Satyrs ==> Satyrs or more formally Oreads are the more masculine kind of nymphs. They take the form as rather energetic, fun-loving men with goat-like traits, although other similar animal traits like sheep and ram are often seen as well. They call "The Great Valley" their home, a huge valley covered in grass, rocks, and clay surrounded by many mountains. Satyrs are reborn through rocks and clay, when a Satyr dies their next form is born by clay and rock seeming to be pulled to each other and forming a new satyr. It takes longer then a unicorns rebirth, often taking a whole day. Also unlike the other nymphs, satyr colors often stay in more natural ranges, staying a bit more mute and monochrome, but that's not to say some don't get more wild. You're just not very likely to see a purple or pink satyr walking around. A Satyrs magic manifests in empathic ways, being able to influence and encourage emotions. As a whole many satyrs like to utilize music to use their magic, making many of them rather talented musicians. While they don't have to, they find song and dance to be the most fun way. Like unicorns, they are just as curious and social with other species, however unlike unicorns they are much more adventurous and willing to wander across the world to find them. Their vibrant personalities and charismatic natures often lead to the people they meet actually wanting to run away and come with them on their journeys. A small satyr party might leave the great valley and return home again with their own new families. The Great Valley has actually grown to become it's own little village with all sorts of unique faces, from humans to harpies to mermaids to orcs, anyone's welcome to them. They also love random trinkets and accessories and will collect all sorts of things, but as a whole they're typically not afraid to show skin... or fur of course.

If you want to ask questions feel free XD
Zodiac, out.

Thanks, but satyrs AND nymphs are also fictional legends with no one way people are allowed to portray them in their own fiction.

This is rather interesting, I enjoy the Satyrs very much! I have a few questions about them, actually.

1. When you were working on the Satyrs, was you main inspiration from the Greek mythical creature Peter Pan? I can assume because of the designs of the creatures as well as the hints of musical talent.
2. I'm curious of when you mention about a pink or purple satyr and I would like to know what you mean by that. Is it perhaps because of how they show more magic in their system? It makes me wonder if that would mean they are maybe more intelligent than others even in the wild spectrum.
3. I assume that the Satyrs only range towards the males, but are there female of them as well? Or are they rare to stumble upon them in your world?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

TheZodiacLord In reply to missymomo7 [2019-11-25 03:11:28 +0000 UTC]

1. They were based on Greek satyrs yes, although I’m not quite sure what you mean about “the creature Peter Pan” as while there was a GOD in Greek mythology called Pan, “Peter Pan” is a fiction character in a novel written by a Scottish author XD (there is a character in this world actually based on the Peter Pan story, he has nothing to do with satyrs)
2. All I meant by that section was that Satyrs are usually more natural colors. There’s nothing unique about satyrs who happen to be blue or pink it’s just really rare for them to be born with unnatural colors in terms of the natural world (being that they’re based on goats and sheep how often do you see a naturally blue goat?)
3. Pure, true satyrs are only ever males. All nymphs are only 1 sex and gender across their species, all unicorns are women, all fairies are women, and all satyrs are men. A HALF satyr could possible be female hence why my friend made a half satyr women for our dnd sessions, but beyond aesthetic they aren’t considered true nymphs as they don’t have any magic.

Now that I'm thinking about it, I can see why the name is causing confusion, I meant to say Pan lol(Though I guess Peter Pan also has some musical talent but yeah)

Okay, that would make sense. I just find it interesting that most of the species you make is based mostly on one gender. Thanks for the explanation!

I kinda like playing with those dynamics and kinda playing with feminine and masculine roles and such in fantasy species in general ^^

missymomo7 In reply to TheZodiacLord [2019-11-26 01:48:28 +0000 UTC]

I say it's a good choice tbh
I don't see many of these ideas pop out very often, so it's a nice change of pace and perspective(seeing how in DnD, many species can vary in any gender whilst those who create worlds and characters tend to bend the general basics, if not go "outside of their comfort zone" in order to make something completely different). This is just so cool in general lol
