In Hive by Rachel, they had sort of like, not exactly "creatures" per se, but there were demons that could go into humans, and they kind of had a hive mind... In Dreamlander there were different peoples, so like the Cherazim had slightly blue skin or something, and they had "battle fire" in them. That means that they could sink into their battle fire and not see or feel anything. <br />In a book that I'm working on, each person living in Laekien (the world) has a different gift. Take one of the main characters, Chris, as an example. He can read minds, something that definitely makes for interesting conversation. ;o ) Everyone knows telepathy, and it's used on a regular basis as another method of communication. Another main character, the antagonist, Viktor, is the only one who can transport people/things/creatures from other worlds. That turns out to be a problem, as I'm sure you can imagine. <br />Also there are groups that have the same gift. "Farsighters" have the gift of seeing into other worlds, like Earth. <br />So I have a mix of several things.

I still haven't seen Avatar, and my husband didn't like it, which means he probably won't buy it, and that's how I usually see these things. Because of him. <br /><br />Those are good book examples.

Thanks for writing all these awesome posts and sorry I haven't commented at all until this point. Not purposeful, I promise. ;o )<br />Call me crazy, but I haven't watched any movies like the ones you mentioned. Not even those that you mentioned! :o / But I get the picture. <br />I have read a few different books (example, Dreamlander by K. M. Weiland, which is on my favorites list with the author) that include other creatures though! Dreamlander is a fairly good example, along with Hive by Rachel Starr Thomson. :o ) I liked both of those, and the creatures were fascinating! :o D <br /><br />ummmm I can't come up with anything more to say. ;o ) <br />In Christ, <br />Ysa Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08620325378517025554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024721400572472213.post-20504267052042819072013-08-30T15:57:18.395-05:002013-08-30T15:57:18.395-05:00Only three people have commented so far :/ that...Only three people have commented so far :/ that's weird; usually there are at least 20...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11828772181763803223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024721400572472213.post-83715927356919206502013-08-30T14:15:16.234-05:002013-08-30T14:15:16.234-05:00Thanks for these post, Jill!

I've done hardly any world building in my story, and I'm not at a place at the moment to start doing some, but I'll definitely come back to reread these when I am!<br /><br />I'm on a Mistborn trilogy (by Brandon Sanderson) kick at the moment (yay for the reference in the first paragraph of this post!), and I really enjoyed the kandra in those stories. Very creative. And of course I loved the creatures in the Blood of Kings books as well.

It's a relationship forged from mutual hatred of the "suckers", but neither group gets on very well and they barely put up with each other. The djamphir view the wolves as lesser creatures due to their somewhat canine behaviour, and the fact that they do not have the speed or grace of the djamphir. The wolves hate the djamphir because of the way the djamphir treat them. So here you have two very different groups living in close proximity all the time, wearing away at each others nerves...is it any wonder things go wrong when they try to attack the suckers?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11828772181763803223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024721400572472213.post-79294286901399398422013-08-30T08:33:10.030-05:002013-08-30T08:33:10.030-05:00I have to admit, Doctor Who is pretty awesome.
