A Chimera is a Three-Headed beast which I believe has wings as well. I think it's heads are like...A Lion, a Dragon, and...I dunno...something else. Probably a goat, by the picture. It's also a type of suplex.

 

And while I can't remember WHAT the sphinx was guarding, I remember it's riddle: What walks on 4 legs in the morning, 2 legs in the day, and 3 legs in the evening?

 

You stew on that, and I'll state that me = Orc. I'm green and ugly.

 

It's pretty close...I'm not green though...

Something Greek, though I'm not really sure what. Apparantly borne from the blood of Uranus, or whatever the fuck the Greeks called him. I should know this....

You know, if you say my half-assed explination out loud, it sounds quite horrible. I honestly didn't intend that.

So sez erinyes.org: Three sisters: Tisiphone, Megaera, and Alecto. The Erinyes were the punishers of sinners, called "those who walk in darkness." Weeping tears of blood and hissing with hair of vipers, they would descend like a storm. As long as there was sin in the world, they could not be banished.

 

EDIT: They were featured prominently in Aesychlus' The Eumenides, where they want to extract revenge on Orestes for violently killing his mother Clytemnestra and her lover, whose name escapes me, as revenge for killing her husband, Agamemnon and Cassandra of Troy. This leads to a huge trial led by Athena, where Orestes is cleared of his crimes. They are more commonly known as the Furies.

Hmm. Good? I didn't know there could be male succubi, but I said personality mattered the most...

 

Am I the only one who watches TV in the buff?

 

Fo sheez,
