Loch Ness Monster (Nessie) x Chimera x Medusa x Mishipeshu x Pegasus x Cerberus x Phoenix Minotauro x

The Loch Ness Monster or Nessie is located in the North of Scotland in the Loch Ness. Nessie had a long neck, two humps, a tail, and a snakelike head. A V-shaped was often mentioned, as well as a gaping red mouth and horns or antennae on the top of the creature's head The fact for its existence are a series of sightings of a dinosaur throughout the last 100 years. The case has occasionally been supported by indistinct photographic facts.

Chimera was a monstrous beast which ravaged the countryside of Lykia in Anatolia. It was a composite creature, with the body and maned head of a lion, a goat's head rising from its back, a set of goat-udders, and a serpentine tail. The most famous moment involving the Chimera in Greek mythology is when the Greek hero Bellerophon, with the help of his trusty winged steed, Pegasus, killed the Chimera with a bow and arrow from the sky above. Beyond mythology, the term "chimera" is used in scientific research to explain an animal that contains more than one set of genetic codings. This is a clear nod to the Greek monster, in that the monster itself is a combination of three different 'normal' animals.

The Medusa was the daughter of Phorkys and Keto, the children of Gaia (Earth) and Okeanos (Ocean). She was one of the three sisters known as the Gorgons. The other two sisters were Sthenno and Euryale. Medusa was the only mortal out of the three. She was once very beautiful and lived far in the north were the sun didn't visit. Being very curious, she wanted to see the sun, and asked the Goddess Athena for permission to visit the south. Athena refused to allow her to visit. The medusa got angry and dared to say that Athena hadn't given her permission because she was jealous of her beauty. that was it! Athena was angered and punished her by turning her hair into snakes and cursing her by making her so ugly that who ever lookes at her eyes would turn into stone.

Mishipeshu has been variously described as a horned serpent or an aquatic feline. Most legends hold that the creature possessed a combination of both reptilian and feline features as is indicated both by its name and its depiction in the ancient pictographs of Agawa Bay. He possesses paws that enable him to swim swiftly through the water, scales cover both his back and tail. Mishipeshu was believed to reside in the vicinity of the Lake Superior region located in Canada. His domain was supposed to exist within caverns and tunnels found beneath under lakes, a fact which allowed him to move with relative ease within the region.

Pegasus is the winged horse that was fathered by Poseidon with Medusa. When her head was cut of by the Greek hero Perseus, the horse sprang forth from her pregnant body. Pegasus aided him in killing the Chimera and defeating the Solymians and the Amazons. However, Bellerophon grew arrogant and attempted to ride Pegasus to Mount Olympus. For his impiety, Zeus sent a gadfly to bite Pegasus, causing him to rear and throw Bellerophon off. In some myths, after this incident, Pegasus became the carrier of Zeus thunderbolts. In another version when Bellerophon attempted to mount the horse it threw him off and rose to the heavens, where it became a constellation (north of the ecliptic).

Cerberus kept the entrance to the lower world, the Hades. It is a child of the giant Typhon and Echidna, which makes him the sibling of the Lernaean Hydra, the chimera, and several other nasty creatures. He was posted to prevent ghosts of the dead from leaving the underworld. Cerberus was described as a three-headed dog with a serpent's tail, a mane of snakes, and a lion's claws. Some say he had fifty heads, though this number might have included the heads of his serpentine mane. Herakles was sent to fetch Kerberos forth from the underworld as one of his twelve labours, his last task

The phoenix has been an enduring mythological symbol for millennia and across vastly different cultures. Despite such varieties of societies and times, the phoenix is consistently characterized as a bird with brightly colored plumage, which, after a long life, dies in a fire of its own making only to rise again from the ashes. From religious and naturalistic symbolism in ancient Egypt, to a secular symbol for armies, communities, and even societies, as well as an often-used literary symbol, this mythical bird's representation of death and rebirth seems to resonate with humankind's aspirations.

The really name of Minotaur is Asterius. He was the love-child of Pasiphae, the Queen of Crete and a bull. Which explains why he had the head of a bull and the body of a man. Naturally, the king was not exactly thrilled that his wife banged a bull and gave him a mutant step-son, but it was pretty much his fault to begin with. Poseidon agreed and sent a beautiful bull to the King. Apparently the bull was such a fine specimen that Minos had second thoughts about sacrificing it. In fact, he decided against it, and instead sacrificed a different bull to Poseidon.
