A few members suggested in the topic ideas thread to make fictional names of creatures and let the artists interprete what the creature could look like with that names...

so here we go...

only restriction is that the creature must have a relation to GOLD, i don't care if it's the color or whatever...don't say i didn't warn you

**Fozzybar** · January 15th, 2007, 07:24 PM

btw, i hope Gibble and Gooper don't have any meanings in english...do they?

I just thought them up randomly and checked in an online dictionary, there were no results...

**Michael Jaecks** · January 15th, 2007, 07:30 PM

Not really. "Goop" is a brand of glue here in the states, however.

edit....

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=gibble

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=gooper

not Webster's, but apparently someone uses these words... and of course, the definitions are a little foul...

**Fozzybar** · January 15th, 2007, 07:41 PM

hmmm ok, so throw in some words which:

1. make no sense
2. start with the letter "g"
3. makes a nice creature name

GO!

**Michael Jaecks** · January 15th, 2007, 07:46 PM

One of the above links "gooper" definitions is a creature shaped like the letter "r"

How odd.

**Fozzybar** · January 15th, 2007, 07:52 PM

ok, gimme input Michael

**redehlert** · January 15th, 2007, 08:13 PM

**ikuru** · January 15th, 2007, 08:25 PM

In the country that I am from (narnia) a "Gibble Gooper" is a common dog.

**Fozzybar** · January 15th, 2007, 08:40 PM

In the country where I am from the "Golden Guddle Greaper" is just the name for a small normal hamster.

Damn, I was in panic when my Oxford said nothing at "guddle", nor "greaper". Then I started to read the second post, for my luck

**Sapphire** · January 15th, 2007, 10:36 PM

Hmm, something that guddles and greaps... I'll get on that.

Fozzy Es muesste eigentlich Tuesday 23rd heissen, nicht 23th. Hehe.

**FlyingMilton** · January 16th, 2007, 01:10 AM

Oh god this topic is so Dr. Seuss it hurts.

Great Golden Guddle Greaper

Rizzard fizzers boggles and sleepers,
There's no creatures as elusive as the Great Golden Greapers.
Past beaches of sneaches vallies of heefers,
over the mountains of Fafus and the lakes of Bambeekers,
you find a mammal with long-necked, yellow-brown features.

What you will discover is far less than elegant,
the beast is far clumsier, perhaps twice that of an elephant.
With a throat six feet long, it's reach is not scant
but plenty high to get stuck in the tall Kuah plant.

**Saise** · January 16th, 2007, 02:21 AM

Erm. :o
Golden is good. I Like Gold.
Guddle in my country (in Łomża dialect) means small bowl of soup.
Greaper... this word is very similiar to Grypa, that means Flu in polish.

So, Gold Flu Soupmaker? :p

**Ilaekae** · January 16th, 2007, 02:39 AM

I got busted once for greaping... It's a second-degree felony where I come from.

dragon4lunch
thanx for the correction

and this star suits well to your avatar

**redehlert** · January 16th, 2007, 12:31 PM

place holder:

'G' is for Greaper
a golden creature,
from the sea of Guddle
it just loves to cuddle.

(i'll make up more as i think it through)...

**Moai** · January 16th, 2007, 01:09 PM

Out by the large puddle
That we all called the Guddle
There dallied a Perfumious Phmeeper.
He'd missed his shuttle
And now sat in a muddle
When who wandered by, but a sheeper!
"Step away, you chum-knuddle!
"Don't just sit there, befuddled,
"Within the grasp of the Keeper!"
But before he unhuddled
Or could offer rebuttal,
The Phmeeper was munched by the Greaper!

Thought I'd toss a whimsical rhyme out there before too many other people did it.

A Greaper is a ferocious fish/crocodile thing that eats those that venture to close to the edge of the water.

**redehlert** · January 16th, 2007, 01:14 PM

i've been out rhymed!
curse you moai and your emo ways.
i'll get you next time moai....next time....

**Moai** · January 16th, 2007, 01:31 PM

Next time? Why, there won't be a next time! Moohoohoohahahahahaha!!

Edit: Check out this site, redehlert: RhymeZone. (Not being sarcastic. Really.)

**Moai** · January 16th, 2007, 01:54 PM

Seasons don't fear the Greaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain
We can be like they are

Come on baby... Don't fear the Greaper

**Michael Jaecks** · January 16th, 2007, 02:05 PM

After a Google image search, I found out a Greaper is a funny little monster in Super Mario Bros. that sort of looks like a cross between a Pokemon and the Grim Reaper. And curiously enough, his cloak is sort of gold colored. More orange really...sort of ochre-ish.
