Mythi L. Creature

Mytho "Mythi" Logical Creature, or MythiCreature is a peace-loving Bonsai Dragon skilled in illusion and mind-affecting magics, using them to hide among the society of Rathnir out of fear of being slain. She lives on Voskovy, a city in Tovarisha as a builder and an aspiring author. She currently wants to stay out of political matters as well as any wars.

Her true form is that of a small, purple dragon, measuring no more than 15 cm nose to tail and weighing around 0.5 kg. Her disguise is as tall and heavy as it is due to her skills in illusion and her desire to blend in with human society.

Pre-Birth and Species
The Lands Beyond is a wild, untamed world a stone's throw away from the Farlands of Legend. These lands are ruled by creatures who hide from prying eyes. One of these creatures are the Bonsai Dragons. The bonsai dragons are small versions of the mighty Dragons, but that does not mean they are weaker. Many stories tell of the Bonsai Dragons, due to their small size are experts in magic of all shapes and sizes, rivalling that of full-sized Dragons.

Bonsai Dragons are a peaceful species, but are known to go nuclear if they, or anyone they care for is threatened or hurt. There is reason why many creatures in The Lands Beyond say "Beware the tiny ones."

Mythi's egg was laid in an oak forest, with her large community up in the trees. She had one elder sibling, and she was the youngest and last.

Early Life
Much like any other Bonsai her age, Mythi was taught the history of her kind, the way the world works and how to use magic. She showed a special interest in the mind-affecting magics, as well as illusions. Most magic was taught to be used in self-defense, and since Mythi was more peaceful than the average Bonsai, she wanted to use more defensive spells to avert her attacker's attention rather than harming them outright. But, at her mother's insistence, she did learn other forms of magic, just to be safe.

During one of many classes, Mythi was taught about ancient tales of Dragons and Humans, where the mighty dragons would roam the world, happy and free. While the evil humans would hunt them down and slay them, for fame and wealth. All Bonsai dragons feared this fate, and Mythi was no exception.

Leaving Home
Mythi had no intention of leaving home any time soon, planning on being an architect of her village, and continuing to learn magic and improving her abilities. But, the world has a funny way of messing with your expectations and plans. A strange human began wandering close to the borders of The Lands Beyond, and gossip spread like wildfire among the residents. And what's more, the human was reported to be heading towards the local Bonsai Dragon settlement; where Mythi lived.

A vote was held among the citizens, and the magic users were called forward, told to spread out, find the human and make sure they did not set foot in their lands by any means necessary. Mythi was among these magic users. She was terrified, but she had a plan. She used her illusion magic to turn herself into a human, and began tracking the human down. Against the odds, she managed to find the trespasser; Wandering Author.

She managed to lead him away from her home, but she realized if she lead him away from somewhere, and then ran back towards where she said humans shouldn't go, it would be suspicious. So, she bid a silent goodbye to her home and family, and joined Wandering for his adventure, where he invited her to join his town if she had no where else to go.

She agreed.

Life in Voskovy
Once the tour concluded, Mythi got to work building her own home, as well as beginning to write her first novel; Arachnimancy. Working quite fast, as well as running into writer's block, she got to work on improving the town she lived in. With permission of course. Her first project was Wandering Author's Library, as well as the apartments within.

Her plans were to exist peacefully and to stay out of any wars, as well as most political situations. When it came to the state of Rathnir and the enemies of her country and city, she would turn to her fellow Voskovians for assistance.

Alcohol
Mythi was offered Alcoholic beverages during her tour of Voskovy. She didn't drink the beverages during the tour, nor construction of her house, deciding to try them once she was alone and her house was finished. Mythi had heard of alcohol, but she had never tried it, so she took a swig. It tasted terrible. But things would only get worse.

Very quickly, she realized that she was very sensitive to alcohol; or at least, this was incredibly strong. She was poisoned, and freaked out when she realized she was in intense pain, as well as taking damage. Mythi was convinced she could die this way. She used the three buckets of milk she had in storage to try and become sober and stop this nightmare, but she quickly realized that it wasn't enough. Remembering where she got the milk, she began making a beeline towards Wandering Author's home, eyes set on his indoor cow farm and a bucket in hand.

She stumbled and tripped over her own feet, The alcohol not only messing with her motor skills, but her magical abilities, causing her human disguise to 'glitch' and for sparks of fire to appear around her at random intervals. Thankfully, the night in Voskovy was silent that day. She finally made it to Wandering's home, and drank milk bucket after milk bucket, furiously trying to erase the affects of the drink. Mythi had long since passed over the idea of dying from the drink, she was now scared that her magic was failing her.

Countless buckets and many tears later, Mythi was sober, laying on the stone floor of Wandering Author's indoor cow farm; in a puddle of milk. After that fiasco, she decided that she would avoid alcohol entirely if possible.

Religon
Even though Cubism and other various religions were presented to her when she arrived, Mythi was thoroughly confused by their existence. As, in The Lands Beyond, the idea of a god is alien, as prayers and wishes do nothing to make food appear or not. "If nature provides, we thrive. if it does not, we work" A common phrase among The Lands Beyond. Many in Rathnir consider Mythi to be an Atheist, while that is partly true, as she does believe in an afterlife, populated by her ancestors. Although where it is and what it's like is a mystery to her, and she does not try to pry. Another common phrase on this topic is "Those who poke their snouts into the afterlife is inviting it to take them."

Motherhood
If you had told Mythi that she was going to be a mother when she was in The Lands Beyond, she would have told you that you were crazy and that you needed to see a healer. Children were hassles and frightened her with their loud noises, not to mention that the act of making a child was... unsavory. But, now, everything has changed for her.

An advertisement floated her way, inviting her to Leolia to adopt children. The advertisement also referred to the children as 'eggs'. Thoughroughly confused, yet intrigued, Mythi traveled to this place, meeting with Theodias Piddleston, the founder and leader of Leolia. A warm welcome later, Mythi was at the small orphanage, and soon she found herself delighted by the many human children that were there. Among them was Tony Prancer, a six-year-old boy with a love of snowmen, carrots and canoeing.

Mythi was enamored, and took the young man home, preparing a small room for him to make him as comfortable as possible. The child was gentle and calm, and well loved in the orphanage, and Mythi was determined to continue that love tenfold. But, a question buzzed in the back of her head. When should her new son learn of her true nature?

She settled on telling him slowly, starting by telling him that she is able to use magic, showing some of it off to him. Excited, Tony asked if she could teach him. Mythi had never heard of a human learning magic back home, but stories here told of them constantly. So, perhaps she could teach him.
