Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

I'm so bored right now, so I'm just going to talk about anything related to my favorite fantasy creature, the shapeshifter.

The fact that I like them so much is pretty plain to see, if you look at the stuff I like to read, write, and play.

Fire Emblem has shapeshifters (laguz heart and manketes)
Kiesha'ra is about shapeshifters
Dragon's Bait has shapeshifter, sort of
all but one of my fanfics has a type of shapeshifter in it
and I have an original story where shapeshifters play and important roll
Secret of mana has shapeshifting bad guys, but that's less important

that's all I can think of for now

I wish I could transform. That would be so much fun blaugh !! Even if it was only one thing that I could turn into, I'd love it. And just because this is a stupid thing that's stuck in my head, I'm going to write about how much I think Zane (Kiesha'ra) and Naesala (Fire Emblem) are alike. Just 'cause I love them both so very much!

arrow they both like black
arrow they're both cocky, and their personalities in general strike me as similar
arrow both act like the bad guy part of the time, while other time's they're good
arrow both are rulers of a country
arrow they are both good fighters
arrow both would do just about anything for their people; Zane married the princess of his people's long-time enemy, and Naesala sold a friend of his into slavery (I know that's a bad thing, but he said that he did it for Kilvas, remember?)
arrow they both fall in love (or seem to) with a pretty blonde princess with wings that's innocent and kind

Their only major differances are that Naesala is a crow, and Zane is a cobra, and they have differant appearences (eye and hair color). But that's about it. Yes, I know there are probably lots of little ones too, but those aren't as important.

If you haven't read any of the Kiesha'ra books, you should!
They are Hawksong, Snakecharm, Falcondance, Wolfcry, and Wyvernhail. The author is Amelia Atwater Rhodes (sp?). She also writes vampire books I guess.
I've only read the first two.

And if you haven't played Fire Emblem, and you like stratagy games, you deffinatly should try it!!

Anyways. Goodbye for now.
