Okay so I'm doing a sci-fi story and I'm involving a lot of mythical creatures in it but they're gonna be twisted to be better fit for space.

I'm using things like:

-Leviathan
-Sirens
-Goblins
-Harpies
-Banshees
-Trolls

I'm open to new ideas for what to use too.

I just need to brainstorm with ya'll.

Dragons? MAybe star fairies???? I'm not that good with Sci-Fi

Well I need peeps who are either knowledgeable in fantasy creatures or who know Sci-Fi really well

Oh ok, Disappears through portal.

I just had an idea for the Siren, if u want
I think u already figured this out in another chat but here i go

The sirens, instead of singing and projecting illusions that lure you to them/your death, they could sing (or do something else) and take away oxygen??? But you’re so entranced that you don’t notice???? So its essentially the same thing but more….. space-y.

Idk man i tried

That's cool brutha

Thx, hope it helped a bit

I could still use some suggestions

You might want to read up on their original meanings and omens too.
Banshees could be apparitions that appear right before a space disaster.

this is more technology based but the banshee could be a holographic clone of a mutilated corpse that slowly degrades the ship using a set of 4 tendrils, the degradation could be rusting, weakening of the hull, sapping power from the main reactor, etc…

That'd be sick

CoOL

I could see trolls living in small bands in caves on asteroids. Asteroid belts could be troll-infested territories where you have to be careful in case a group attacks your ship like pirates? They're commonly able to use illusion magic to lure space sailors and take their supplies?

I could also see space vampires that don't feed off of blood but instead iron? Like they drain your body of stardust and metal. Suddenly a crewmember is anemic? It's the lack of stardust in their system, they have to be sent to an iron-rich planet to recharge.

oh god… 2 words: SPACE SPIDERS

Terrifying

all are good ideas

thank you^-^

Okay ya'll I need an opinion on a Leviathan I made

just tell me if the description makes sense

A royal purple beast with yellow, owl-like eyes. It's smooth skin feels like rubber, and the curved head melts into the body like a squid. It also has tentacles that look like tattered ribbons. It's face resembles a fish like creature, with a gigantic mouth like a cave. It sounds like a ethereal wail. Able to swallow whole planets in one gulp, it wanders the universe looking for dying systems to devour

yikes what do ya think?

(sHOOT

THANKS FOR THAT SIS)

(NO PROBLEM

JUST CHANGE IT UP A BIT AND YOURE GOOD!)

(HAPPY TRAILS DUDE

HOPE YOU GO FIND SOMEONE ELSE TO INSPIRE

BYE CREATIVITY

THAT'S THE SOUND OF MY INSPIRATION FLYING OUT THE WINDOW)
