@koshka lolll I have that issue too!
A kingdom called the Sentryborn in a story I’m currently starting the worldbuilding on has two “gods”, who were actually the twin brothers who founded the kingdom, but I’m always worrying about how I’m gonna write that without it seeming too pagan, cause I REALLY don’t want that, but the mythology I have for them is just so cool. Well that and the monotheistic religion of the main characters is gonna clash with it when my Senturian Ailurid character mentions it lol
One is the creator brother, Dell, the quiet one, patron of architects, engineers, and artists. The other is Dane, the explorer brother, the boisterous one, patron of innovators/inventors and seafarers.

January 19, 2025 at 11:20 pm #195403Okay! First off, I have the Fuchs.(Fooks) They are based of foxes. They look like normal humans, except for their legs, tail, and eyes. They are not trusted with other races, for they are more shady, and secretive.
They hide their legs and tails, and love to fool with others. They are known to waste, time, money, energy and can sometimes steel joy. They find pleasure in messing with people, and unfortunately for some who try to be good citizens, they are usually judged, and outcasted. Normal Fuchs don’t mind being an outcast though. Their main food is either, berries, small mammals/rodents and medium mammals like deers.
They do enjoy to play games, and will usually try just to have fun, but they don’t care who it takes to have fun. They have been even known to mess with the royal family!
there is also the Tartaruga (Tar-tar-ooh, guh.) They are like turtles, they live with the Arria. They have shells on their backs, and flippers instead of arms and hands. They eat coral, and are very kind towards others. They are more shy and are not that well known though, only really the Arraias know much about them, but they refuse to reveal the information.
And finally I have the Uggla (ooh-gluh) They are based off of owls, they have wings on the back of their backs, and they have wide eyes that can see through the dark. They eat mammals and lizards, and are not great friends with the Eidechse. They are also more secretive, and are friends with the Fuchs.
They love to fool with humans, and steel. When they are spotted during the day, it is mostly because they are up to no good. Many people assume that it is just the Fuchs messing with them, but a large portion of it is also the Uggla. They are not as feared, and others usually have fun being around them.
BTW, my fav of your creatures is the humans! (JK!!!!!!) the eagle ones! I am so sorry I have forgotten their names!!!! ;( But I also love the shark ones!!!!

January 19, 2025 at 11:47 pm #195404@the_lost-journal Those are awesome! I have a fox species which is very similar! They’re called Vulpines.
The Ornithiforms? Yeah those are super cool.

January 20, 2025 at 12:17 am #195407That’s pretty cool! I haven’t read a lot of mythology, or books with fake religions, but having a base for the mythology out of “real” history makes sense. In fact, something like that might help solve a few issues of my own, like why this other country has such a mixed up system of government and religion.
