Strange Creature is a strange creature who feels most comfortable when conversing with the swamp’s creatures. She has a deep, abiding love for all things reptilian- she adores the way their minds work and the way they investigate and perceive the world. She understands much of her own world through the lens of her relationship with animals- they help keep her grounded and interacting with what’s real. This closeness to nature has helped her overcome serious trauma; to her, the Swamp isn't just home, it's Home. It's healing, it's heart, it's hope. She sees herself as just another animal nestled in the Motherfather's bosom and relishes her part in life's great dance. She would make an interesting legendary because her approach to the world is one of a creature deeply in love with the swamp. It is her home, and almost more importantly, it is home to the lizards, those delightful embodiments of the swamp’s hidden treasures and the rewards of curiosity, attention, and boldness in investigation.
But lately, she hasn't been feeling so bold. Or so curious. She took a risk that went horribly wrong, and now she's terrified of the open sky. As she works through her trauma, she'll have to come to understand that the world is more complex- and that she is more complex- than she'd ever believed.
As a legendary, she’d be deeply understanding of the high price of fear. She knows what fear can take from you, but she also knows how fear can help. Fear and curiosity are two sides of the same stone, and the balance between the two is how a kin can survive in the Swamp.
