I suppose I have always seen myself as a bit of an ever-changing Being, embodying many different characters from myth and legend throughout my lifetime. As such, I don't think there is just one supernatural character that defines me to a tee. However, if I had to narrow down the possibilities to choose one, it would be that of the shape-shifter.

Whether in human form or animal form, shape shifters are creatures who possess the ability to continually evolve and adapt to the world around them using whatever strength they can muster within. They are also incredibly mysterious which appeals to me as someone who often feels like an outsider looking in at various worlds & scenarios where they don’t feel entirely comfortable yet seems content with observing instead of taking an active role in said dynamic.

At times I relate heavily with a werewolf because despite their “darker” reputation for being unpredictable & powerful creatures during full moons, those feelings make up only part of who they actually are - a complicated yet powerful creature capable of both love and loyalty but still stuck between knowing what’s good from bad even when playing on their hunter instincts! Additionally similarly connected with other legendary shifters such as vampires or mermaids because no matter what form we take we will always remain mysterious strange creatures whose shifting affords us a unique perspective on life - something that poses both challenges but also brings about opportunities for learning about ourselves and others around us!

What mythical creature best represents you?

It would have to be the sphinx, due to its strong sense of intelligence and wisdom. Socially, I am a bit of a paradox as I'm both known for being on the quiet side but also for having an outgoing and sometimes quirky personality. Much like the sphinx, there’s a certain mystery about me that draws people in and makes them intrigued by my abilities; be it my knowledge of rare facts or simply my ability to read people. Additionally, I’m quite capable when it comes to problem solving skills —similarly paralleling with the powerful riddle giving ability which is attributed to this mythological creature! All in all, between its multiple attributes such as intelligence and social intrigue -my inner sphinx seems appropriate!

If you could be any fantasy creature, which would you choose?

If I could be any fantasy creature, I would choose to be a phoenix. The phoenix is seen as a symbol of rebirth and renewal, and this appears to be especially true because of its ability to die in flames and then rise from the ashes as victor at the end. This idea of transformation appeals to me greatly – being able to experience failure yet still come out the other side stronger makes the choice an obvious one for me.

The origins of the mythology surrounding phoenixes have been traced back over 3,000 years. This means that people have been enchanted by these creatures for centuries– what better company for everlasting life than superstitious admiration?

One can never forget how beautiful a sight it is also: brilliant hues of gold radiate when one prepares its wings in readiness for flight (not forgetting note-worthy glamour which many tend to overlook!). Whilst my peers run around on all fours pretending they are some svelte werewolf or dragon breathing fireballs here there, I will be soaring majestically above them like a god! There’s no creature more ethereal and majestic than myself!

If you could be a magical being, what would you be?

If I could have the privilege of being a magical being, I would choose to be a fairy. With my fluttery wings, I would explore the hidden realms of magic and fantastical creatures unknown to humans. A solitary traveler on enchanted paths, I would experience worlds inaccessible to most people while enjoying all the wonders that come with having magical powers. As a fairy, I could fly wherever my heart desired in an effortless journey across clouds and stars. My eye for peculiar details would grant me access to exclusive curiosity-inducing locations around the globe!

Equipped with a wand in hand and accompanied by woodland friends, my life as a fairy would be extraordinary. The possibilities that come with possessing magical abilities are quite exciting—from enchanting portals of secret doorways awaiting in mystic forests to mysterious assignments assigned by wise sages. On those days when adventure calls for more daring spirits, I might even develop my own spells or battle dragons protecting cursed treasures!

My unique speciality as a fairy resides not only on my quick flight capabilities but also other natural tendencies such as healing people from their ailments or safeguarding innocent bystanders at times of trouble (with no one ever asking ‘how’). After every successful mission completed or challenge faced courageously, eventually returning back to nature its due—as fairies do!

What mythical creature most aligns with your personality?

I am often told that my personality is reminiscent of a Phoenix, the mythical bird that is linked to legend and renewal. In Greek mythology, the Phoenix rises from its own ashes after it self-immolates when nearing death. Similarly, I have been able to fight through some of life’s greatest challenges by finding strength and confidence in myself.

The Phoenix is also seen as a symbol for great resilience; as it regenerates from its own ashes to return more powerful than before. Having experienced tremendous heartache throughout my formative years — both personally and professionally — I can attest to this same sort of endless strength and determination that no challenge will ever be too overwhelming if you have courage enough to confront it head-on.

The last critical piece of the story behind the Phoenix involves new beginnings following destruction; learning from losses rather than being crushed under their weight. Every time I’ve achieved success in business or returned stronger following personal tragedies, I have done so knowing that obstacles are useful learning tools which will help shape me into an empowered person into adulthood.

In essence, I think because the mythical creature known as the Phoenix most forcefully stresses themes including courage, resilience, resoluteness and hope in even our darkest moments – these are all traits often attributed to me alike – making it a perfect fit for my personality!

What would be your ideal supernatural power?

My ideal supernatural power would be that of translation. Imagine having the ability to understand and speak any language or dialect in existence! Picture being able to converse with someone in Spanish, Japanese, French and then move onto Russian or Greek all in the same conversation. This power would essentially eliminate language and cultural barriers across the world.

With a superpower like this I could use it to explore far off places without worrying about understanding what anyone is saying as I traveled around the world. I could use it for more practical applications like connecting people with different backgrounds in order to foster better understanding between cultures and countries that might even seemingly never see eye-to-eye diplomatically.

I’d also use my superpower for personal reasons, learning languages first hand from native speakers and taking up hobbies like certain styles of music or dance that may have previously been inaccessible due to language barriers. This gift could act as a window into perspectives from cultures all over the globe, teaching me valuable lessons on communication, shared values, social customs — really anything you can imagine!

If you could live in any magical realm, which would you choose?

If I could live in any magical realm, I would choose a serene paradise full of nature and adventure. A place where anything is possible, and imagination has no bounds. I picture lush forests filled with majestic creatures and colorful flowers of every kind; vast oceans whose depths are unimaginable but still beckon me to explore its mysteries. Everything around me oozes with the indescribable beauty of magic, from rainbows that appear at night to stars that sparkle like precious gems in the sky.

This realm would possess a perfect balance between frolicking in nature's bounty and experiencing the thrill of thrilling adventures. Each day is as exciting as the next. Explore hidden grottos on horseback by day or glide through an impenetrable forest on a flying broomstick by night - whichever approach takes your fancy! The possibilities for exploration are endless; new territories await discovery around each corner!

I can’t think of any better place to spend my days than living in this magical realm surrounded by its enchanted beauty - freedom from mundane life and all its trivialities while discovering endless possibilities far beyond our wildest dreams! Such an existence has infinite potential waiting to be discovered - only if you have the courage to venture inside this wondrous land...
