3 minute read

Mythical creatures have captured our fascination for generations upon generations, and it’s obvious why.

 

They’re so COOL.

 

From majestic beasts to gentle giants, we’ve narrowed down our favorites from the Hoard and here’s why:

 

5. The Kraken

Famous kraken: Davy Jones’ Kraken from The Pirates of the Caribbean

 

The one and only terrifying, tentacled, gargantuan monster of the deep and the source of countless stories from sailors stranded at sea… the Kraken. Said to be larger than 10 ships, this giant squid-like creature (originally depicted as crab-like) came from 13th century Norwegian legends. 

 

Weird lore: But did you know that the kraken’s muddy faeces were said to be such a delicious concoction that it would lure other fish in?

 

Harness the might of the powerful kraken around your neck now!

 

4. The Unicorn

Famous unicorn: Ridden by Peter into battle in The Chronicles Of Narnia

 

More than the majestic white pony with a horn you see nowadays, the unicorn is a well-known legendary animal that symbolizes purity, virtue, and innocence. It’s also said to have magic healing powers.

 

Weird lore: Did you know that the horn of a unicorn is called an alicorn? 

 

We love unicorns, and we’ve taken a bit of a darker turn featuring the undead unicorn on this cool necklace!



3. The Phoenix

Famous phoenix: Dumbledore’s phoenix from Harry Potter

 

A beautiful, sometimes dangerous, fiery bird that is famous for rising from its own ashes after death. Associated with immortality and rebirth, the phoenix is seen in many different mythological legends including Greek, Egyptian, Roman, Arabian and more.

 

Weird lore: Did you know the Chinese phoenix was said to have the beak of a rooster, face of a swallow, breast of a goose, neck of a snake, back of a tortoise, backside of a stag, and the tail of a fish? 

 

Flaunt the magnificence of the immortal phoenix.

 

2. The Kitsune

Famous kitsune: The nine-tailed fox spirit Kurama in Naruto

 

The nine-tailed fox originates from Japanese folklore, and depending on which version you read, they range from intelligent tricksters to harbingers of death. Shapeshifting, illusions and psychic powers, kitsune have it all.

 

Weird lore: Did you know that kitsune are said to take the form of beautiful, loyal housewives… but when they are discovered, she is forced to flee the village forever?

1. The Wyvern

Famous wyvern: Geralt of Rivia’s foe in The Witcher

 

We couldn’t ignore the wyvern ofcourse  ;) Commonly mistaken for dragons, the wyvern is a deadly predator of the skies with its forearms doubling as wings.

 

Weird lore: Did you know that instead of breathing fire, wyverns are said to breathe pestilence and were blamed for spreading the black plague in England?

 

Wear the deadly (glow in the dark) wyvern necklace here.
