| fantasy forest creatures guide: Green Rider Kristen Britain, 2011-04-01 It's a race against time to save her country, but it could cost her life . . . Karigan G'ladheon always seemed to be getting into a fight, and today was no exception. But as she trudged through the forest, using her long walk home to contemplate her depressing future - and the expulsion it was bound to hold - a horse burst through the woodland and charged straight for her. The rider was slumped over his mount's neck with two arrows embedded in his back. Wherever his horse was taking him, he would be dead before they got there. There's nothing Karigan can do, as the young man lies dying on the road. He had sworn to carry out his mission as a Green Rider - one of the legendary messengers of the king - and he has a life or death message that must reach King Zachary. Karigan may be unable to save him, but she can deliver his message. He makes her swear to it, to keep it secret and, with his last breath, he warns her to 'beware the shadow man ...' Pursued by an unknown assassin, following a path only her horse seems to know, and accompanied by the silent specter of the original messenger, Karigan is going to become a legendary Green Rider herself. Caught up in a world of deadly danger and complex magic, compelled by forces she cannot understand, her simple promise to deliver a letter is about to become a race against time ... and a race for her life ...

| fantasy forest creatures guide: Fantasy World-Building Mark Nelson, 2019-02-13 When artists and designers explore or create a fictional setting, the milieu must be completely fleshed out, explained, and designed. In this book, comic and gaming art veteran Mark A. Nelson explores and demonstrates his methods for fashioning visually stunning, believable environments for fantasy creatures and characters. Scores of images and step-by-step examples illustrate how variation and experimentation lead to fresh, original designs for otherworldly beings, their environments, and their stories. Nelson discusses how to find ideas and borrow from history to add the strength of realism to a fantasy world. In describing the best ways to establish a habitat, he offers specifics about climate, terrain, flora, and wildlife. He shares insights into founding societies in terms of their means of survival, manner of warfare, spiritual practices, style of dress, and levels of technology. All visual creatives who work with imaginative material — illustrators, comic artists, and writers — will take a lively interest in this source of inspiration and practical knowledge. In sixteen breezy-yet-surprisingly-concise chapters he covers everything from visual problem solving to spirituality to warfare to transportation, not with the idea of giving the reader lessons to copy by rote but rather as prompts to develop their own original concepts. If I were suggesting three books every budding artist should have at their fingertips they would be Figure Drawing for All It's Worth by Andrew Loomis, Imaginative Realism: How to Paint What Doesn't Exist by James Gurney, and, most definitely, Mark's Fantasy World-Building. — Muddy Colors |

| fantasy forest creatures guide: Tales of Animal Vengeance in the Fantasy World Amrahs Atina, 2023-12-25 Welcome to a world where imagination takes flight, where creatures of myth and legend roam, and where the untamed wilderness is a battleground for epic battles of vengeance. In this book, Battles of the Beasts: Tales of Animal Vengeance in the Fantasy World, we journey into a realm where animals are imbued with magical powers, where kingdoms rise and fall, and where the laws of nature and fantasy intertwine in mesmerizing ways. Get ready to be swept away by a collection of fantastical stories that delve into the realm of animal vengeance like never before. In Battles of the Beasts, we continue this tradition by weaving animal protagonists into the fabric of fantastical worlds, where they rise against their oppressors, harness their magic, and seek retribution for the wrongs inflicted upon them. The stories in this book are inspired by a wide array of creatures from mythology and folklore, from majestic dragons to wise phoenixes, from cunning werewolves to graceful unicorns. These creatures come alive with vivid personalities, magical abilities, and unyielding determination as they navigate the challenges and perils of their fantastical realms, seeking to right the wrongs done to them and their kind. Through their tales, we explore the depths of their emotions, the complexities of their worlds, and their unwavering pursuit of vengeance. Battles of the Beasts is not just a collection of stories about animals seeking revenge in a fantasy world; it is a reflection on the power of imagination, the importance of empathy, and the timeless human desire for justice. It invites us to ponder the meaning of power, the consequences of oppression, and the morality of revenge. It challenges us to question societal norms, to examine our biases and assumptions, and to explore the complexities of good and evil. It ignites our imaginations and transports us to worlds where animals are not just passive characters, but active agents shaping their destinies. As the author of these tales, I have drawn upon my love for fantasy literature, my fascination with myth and folklore, and my admiration for animals to create these stories. I have been inspired by the rich tapestry of fantasy worlds, the diversity of creatures that populate them, and the limitless possibilities of the genre. I have also been moved by the timeless themes of justice, equality, and the plight of the oppressed, which are just as relevant in the fantastical realms as they are in our world. Through these stories, I hope to transport readers to worlds where the fantastical and the natural collide, where animals are not just passive entities, but active participants in shaping their destinies. |

| fantasy forest creatures guide: The Elemental Prophecy: A Fictional Fantasy Novella Rick Anthony, In a time long forgotten, where the echoes of creation still whispered through the mountains, flowed through the rivers, flickered in the flames, and whistled through the air, the world was in harmony. The ancient elemental powers of Fire, Earth, Water, and Air existed in balance, their rhythmic dance guiding the world's rhythm, their silent symphony sculpting its destiny. But as ages passed, a discord was born. The elements began to wane, their harmony disrupted, their dance faltered. The world was on the verge of chaos, teetering on the brink of destruction. In the midst of this growing tumult, whispers of an old prophecy surfaced, tales of four heroes, each chosen by an element, destined to restore balance. In the Scorched Plains, where fiery spirits roamed and the ground kissed the sun, a flame-haired girl was born under the shadow of an erupting volcano. Her spirit was as fierce as the flames she danced with, her destiny intertwined with the element of Fire. This was Mirah, the fire wielder, the first hero of the prophecy. In the Verdant Woods, where nature sang and the earth whispered its secrets, a girl was born amidst the roots of the ancient Mother Tree. Her heart beat in time with the earth, her soul mirrored its patience and wisdom. This was Eolande, the earth wielder, the second hero of the prophecy. In the Ocean's Cradle, where the sea sang songs of old and the waves told stories of time, a boy was born during the greatest storm the world had ever seen. His spirit ebbed and flowed with the tide, his heart beat in harmony with the ocean's rhythm. This was Draven, the water wielder, the third hero of the prophecy. In the Skyreach Mountains, where the winds danced and the sky kissed the earth, a boy was born under the dancing aurora. His heart was as free as the winds he commanded, his soul as light as the air he breathed. This was Iolan, the air wielder, the fourth and final hero of the prophecy. In a world teetering on the brink of chaos, four unlikely heroes emerged, chosen by the elements, bound by a shared destiny. Their journey would take them through trials and tribulations, through the depths of the oceans and the heart of the forests, to the fiery deserts and the soaring mountains, to the very core of the world. Their path was fraught with danger and uncertainty, teeming with mythical creatures and ancient mysteries. But the prophecy had foretold their coming, their elemental powers held the key to restoring balance. Along the way, they would uncover the lost artifacts, reveal the secrets of the prophecy, and forge bonds as strong and enduring as the elements themselves. This is the tale of the Elemental Prophecy, an epic saga of unity, balance, and friendship. It's a tale of courage and hope, of trials and triumphs, and most importantly, of unbreakable bonds. As the world stands on the brink of chaos, follow the journey of the elemental wielders, the heroes of the prophecy, as they strive to restore balance, guided by their unity, their courage, their friendship, and their unbreakable bonds. This is their story, the story of the Elemental Prophecy. |

| fantasy forest creatures guide: Among the Beasts & Briars Ashley Poston, 2020-10-20 Ashley Poston, acclaimed author of Heart of Iron, returns with a dark, lush fairy tale–inspired fantasy for fans of Sara Raasch and Susan Dennard. Cerys is safe in the Kingdom of Aloriya. Here there are no droughts, disease, or famine, and peace is everlasting. It has been this way for hundreds of years, since the first king made a bargain with the Lady who ruled the forest that borders the kingdom. But as Aloriya prospered, the woods grew dark, cursed, and forbidden. Cerys knows this all too well: When she was young, she barely escaped as the woods killed her friends and her mother. Now Cerys carries a small bit of the curse—the magic—in her blood, a reminder of the day she lost everything. As a new queen is crowned, however, things long hidden in the woods descend on the kingdom itself. Cerys is forced on the run, her only companions a small and irritating fox from the royal garden and the magic in her veins. It’s up to her to find the legendary Lady of the Wilds and beg for a way to save her home. But the road is darker and more dangerous than she knows, and as secrets from the past are uncovered amid the teeth and roots of the forest, it’s going to take everything she has just to survive. |
