If you are curious to find an answer for, what mythical creature am I? take this 20-question folklore-driven quiz to find out. Your personality reveals your inside creature.
A Strange Quiz to Discover Your Mythical Creature
You should answer a set of myth-themed psychological questions to determine what type of legendary creature resembles you. But there is a catch. During some parts of the quiz, you play the role of a folklore hero fighting and killing these mysterious beings. The way you interact with them, your weapon choices, along your feelings will expose your perfect match.
The basis of the test is similar to discovering your Spirit Animal. However, the style is different. You need to slaughter the creature within you to unleash it.
Using Four Distinct Categories and 15+ Creatures
Your big question (probably) is, “What mythical creature am I?” But keep in mind that almost all ancient cultures have their own folklore stories, legends, and, therefore, fictional beings. So, your region and belief system change the answer to the said question.
We included four of the most inspiring traditions to make the test more accurate. Below is a list of all the legends we used.
Greek Mythology
The word “myth” has become interchangeable with Greek folklore. That is because their stories and legends have been vastly adapted and used in the entertainment industry. You know the names of at least a couple of Greek Gods, and you are probably familiar with a bunch of their legendary animals. That is why we included the majority of their folklore beings in our Mythical Quiz.
Arabian Mythology
Arabs’ folklore fairytales are deeply connected with their predominant religious belief, Islam. Creatures such as Jinn and Qareen got popularized through works of art and literature such as Arabian Nights and One Thousand One Night.
Norse Mythology
Many people who ask, “What mythical creature am I?” would love to match Nordic beings. That is because they usually have cool and distinct looks. Fenrir, for example, is a well-known wolf-like hybrid that has made its way into modern video games and movies due to its desirable appearance.
Celtic Mythology
The religion of the Iron Age Celts includes lots of legendary animals and beings. Although they are not as popular as their Greek counterparts, Celtic mythical creatures are pretty admirable. Leannán Sídhe, for instance, is a fairy lover who usually wanders around cemeteries. And her goal is to find men who lost their wives and are looking for another lover.

Your Mythical Creature | Star Sign |

Sphinx | Leo |
Unicorn | Virgo |
Sylph | Libra |
Phoenix | Scorpio |
Centaurs | Sagittarius |

However, the said method has a downside. And the problem here is you need to be familiar with the famous folklore beings’ features to find your counterpart.
Not many people have enough information about such stuff to find their soulmate. So, it might not be a good idea if you are new to the topic. (See the next item instead).
#3: Taking a Test
One of the most convenient ways to discover your mythical creature is by taking a quiz. The test on this page is an example of such a questionary that uses psychological tricks to reveal your inner fairytale twin.
Are any of the Legendary Animals Real? (Probably Yes!)
Strangely, some scientific evidence shows that mythical creatures might not be a result of pure imagination. And there might be real-world happenings that made ancient people create these sorts of beings. Below you see five fairytale mortals that could be real—sort of.
· Dracula
Scientists suggest that an illness called Porphyria can cause extreme skin reactions to sunlight. And it can also lead to gum issues, making some of the patient’s teeth longer than others. Many believe that the said sickness was why Vampires (aka Dracula) became a thing in fairytales.
· Dragon
A theory suggests that ancient people probably came across fossilized bones of dinosaurs, believing what they see are the skeletons of dragons.
· Kraken
Giant squids are possibly the reason ancient sailors believed in Kraken, a large sea monster similar to a giant cephalopod.

How to Play?
Playing personality quizzes is straightforward: Choose the option that’s true about you—or you relate to—and select “Next.” Unlike trivia quizzes, personality tests have no right or wrong answers. But the questions are in forced-choice format. The point is to push you to choose an option that makes the most sense, not the one that’s 100% true. For the most accurate results, don’t overthink your responses. Go with options that you “feel” are the best.
