10 Fantasy Creatures and Where to Find Them and How to create your own fantasy spirit animal

1. Write down a list of 5-10 words, both good and bad, you find to be the most important as to who you are fundamentally: Loving, independent, free-spirited, creative, overly anxious, small, expressive, intelligent, idealistic

2. Write down the first animal that comes to mind when you think of each of those words: dog, seagull, dolphin, giraffe, butterfly, hummingbird, chimpanzee, whale, horse

3. Name the thing you are best at and enhance and exaggerate that skill into a superpower. What is it and what does it become?

4. Pick the three animals from your list that would best help encapsulate your superpower. I.E., if your ability is that you can read people very well, your superpower might be that you can manipulate and control the minds of your enemies, so you’d want to select the animals whose natural abilities are most tied to intelligence and communication — dog, dolphin, chimpanzee.

5. Exaggerate the features so that they are larger than life. Add wings.
