    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

    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...

    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...

    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

    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.

    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

    place holder:

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

    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.

    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.

    Golden Guddle Greaper Sounds very Harry Potterish. Also sounds like something to go wild on. Yihaa!
