Challenge #219 - Magical Creature

[itsanonyx]

After watching How To Train Your Dragon (2025) more than once I actually wanted to have a Challenge about Dragons only. But then I didn't find enough icons. So I thought we could have this one first and then a Challenge about Dragons later. (Spoiler. :D)

A Magical Creature is a creature that exists in folklore or mythology and is attributed with supernatural or magical abilities. These creatures often possess unique characteristics, powers, or origins that set them apart from ordinary animals or beings. They can be found in various cultural narratives and legends, sometimes playing significant roles in myths and stories.

You may use everything that is classified as Magical Creature. Normal animals or any human with any magical powers don't count as such. Everything else is fair game.

Let me use How To Train Your Dragon as example of what is allowed for this Challenge: Toothless is a Night Fury. Night Furys are species of dragons. If you want to go with this example too you may either focus on dragons only, Night Furys only and/or Toothless only. You may go with Dragons only and then focus on more than one species - such as Night Fury, Light Fury, Gronckle and/or Deadly Nadder. :o)
