Hey folks --
I'm in a bit of a quandry... I had bought my boys a dragon vessel from CH auctions with a Class 2 Blue Dragon Invocation. They sat with the item and said the Invocation but I'm not quite sure anything really happened. I haven't seen any signs of any dragons being around and according to the seller I can't conjure it for them. However, my nine year old has taken care of the vessel as if it the dragon was there.(very responsible)

Now, My BOYS would like a spirit stone. No big deal right? A nice little Fairy or Dragon would be great -- NO -- they want a Creature. :shock: (eeek). My nine year old wants a Gryphon and My 12 year old isn't sure but the "cooler" the better. With the Cinco De Mayo sale coming up I can actually afford to buy them something but... a creature??

Any thoughts?

You are...: a practitioner
Zodiac:

Hmm... Well, for children, a Unicorn would be great... But I'm not sure if your boys would want a Unicorn...

Hmm... As for others, I'm not sure... Maybe you could look them over, see what you think would be alright and then let them chose between the ones that you have selected...

Maybe a Phoenix? A Phoenix sounds good.

Your favorite spirit to work with: Black Dragon/wraith
If I could be anything, I would be...: Wraith
My super power would be...: Ability to shape-shift
My magical/paranormal name...: Given to a few close friends
Zodiac:

Hmmm. I was just looking at the spirit stones.
Alan - half man half bird
Baku - eater of dreams
Gryphon - totally awesome creature - more fearsome than dragons, more magestic than unicorns
Hippocampus - a flying horse, different from pegasus
Hippogryph - made famous in Harry Potter films

As well as the Phoenix that Hunter suggested (Very Kewl).

Good luck, and let us know what you choose. :D Alex

oooooh! Hunter! Great idea... I like the phoenix idea. That's one! Thanks!

Thanks you guys... I wasn't sure if a creature might be too strong for them since they were so young.

The spirit stones are c2 and the ones I looked at are not duplicious in nature.

How would a 9 year old use a creature that promoted love? Well, suppose you had a cranky teacher..... ha ha ha

drsuess, I know you've probably already decided on getting the pheonix, but I just thought I'd add in that a Chinese Fox might be good. It not only helps very well spiritually, but it is a very wise, noble creature. Either way, I hope your boys enjoy whichever spirit they might get. Good luck! :D

Hmm, I believe the best way is to ask your children what they wished to obtain from the particular creature. OK, let see your 12 year old wants something cool....do you think he like a volkh or pegasus.

I think that's what we're going to have to do. I think we'll have to go through them together and decide what's appropriate... although, shiori, I like the Chinese Fox -- that's not so intimidating and really might be more benefical then catching "girls" :D .
