I would be a (good) dragon. Or a talking cat, if I made something up from scratch.

Griffin -- legendary creature with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle. As the lion was traditionally considered the king of the beasts and the eagle the king of the birds, the griffin was thought to be an especially powerful and majestic creature. In antiquity it was a symbol of divine power and a guardian of the divine.
The symbolism of the lion-eagle combination was also the subject of a quotation attributed to Chassaneus by Alexander Nisbet: "The griffin represents wisdom joined to fortitude, but wisdom is obliged to lead, and fortitude follow."
I like the griffin because it is on the shoulder patch of the now-demobilized 15th Military Police Brigade. It has sentimental meaning for me.

I would be an elf. Not the short little ones, but the kind from like LOTR and stuff.
Or maybe a Nereid. Nymphs of the ocean and sea. I am being written into a book as one.

I think, out of the millions of mythical creatures out there, that i would have to be a black werewolf, witha mane of purple fire, Titanium claws, and an insatiable hunger to destroy stupid people who say im not real.

I would chose a Tuatha De Danan. They are were Tolkien got his idea for elves (which to this point were the shoemaker type), and much like what shakespear did with fae, he changed the image of how people thought of elves.

A horny cockroach that can walk through walls and glows in the dark with night, x-ray, infrared vision. I will be able to fly at super-sonic speeds, warp, transform into a school bus, be telepathic, be able to rub my wings like a cricket and play any tune, have super strength, and be able to move like keanu reeves.
