Creatures
Griffin
Griffins have body of a lion, yet, they are more than double the size of the average lion. They are equipped with strong tails about the lengths of their bodies. Their ears are long and pointed, and their massive wings can cut through mighty wind.
The Welcoming Moon is celebrated once a lifetime by every griffin that has come of age. Young adolescent Griffins flock to a sacred part of the Clan to bask in the light of the moon. It is on this particular night that the young Griffin gains one of six powers bestowed by the moon itself. It is often said that celebrating the Welcoming Moon gives a young Griffin the feeling of euphoria.
One such power is the power of Ardor. The fierce Griffin of Ardor is able to emit fire from their bodies and control it at will.
Griffins of the Shielding are able to protect themselves by creating a force-field, or an invisible barrier around them that is impenetrable, depending on their level of control. Characters in the novel with this power include Ianna, River and Eliath. You can meet them on the Meet the Characters Page!
The power of the Dark is a mighty power to behold. Griffins of this power are telepathic creatures that are able to read the thoughts of any person whenever they please. They are also able to manipulate their victims to do anything they so desired. Characters in the novel with this ability include Carly, Deor, and Mary. Meet them in the Meet the Characters Page!
Equally as mesmerizing is the power of Light. These griffins have the gift of creating vivid hallucinations; projecting into the material world whatever they wish their victims to see. Characters in the novel that are Griffins of the Light include Carly and Greon! Meet them in the Meet the Characters Page!
The strongest power of all is what the Griffin Clan call Endurance. Griffins of Endurance are capable of inflicting physical turmoil on their victims. But the name, Endurance signifies this Griffin's ability to overcome high levels of physical anguish. Endurance Griffins you will read about in the series include Hale, Bayo, and Leon! Meet them in the Meet the Characters Page!
The last power bestowed by the Welcoming Moon is the power of Prophecy. This gift is the rarest of all, for only one Griffin per generation is bestowed this supernatural power. Meet the Griffin Prophets Marcus and Felix on the Meet the Characters Page!
Siren
The siren is trapped inside a human vessel named Ellionna. Ellionna is a sixteen-year-old Arketchian girl trying to control the mystic entity within her. But it thirsts for male lives and expels its voice at whim if she is not careful!
To learn more about Ellionna, find her in the Meet the Characters page!
Nymph
Nymphs are the spirits of the trees. They have slender, gender-less bodies and long limbs. Their green, glowing, and opaque skin is cool and moist. If they wished, Nymphs could separate their spirits from their vessels and interact with mortal flesh. However, Nymphs tend to keep hidden and only communicate with their own. They oversee all, yet seldom get involved. For this reason, details about their culture are unknown. Though it is recorded that the nymphs behave childishly, and enjoy playing in the silence of the woods.
