Okay - What I like about this creature is it is a nine headed monster guarding the gate to the Underworld. In fantasy there are always quests and tasks to be completed. While Whispers isn't THAT kind of fantasy I kind of liked this creature. Helps that this artist's rendition looks like a dragon--I like dragons.
Slaying this beastie was one of Hercules' tasks, but becuase he brought a friend it pissed off a Goddess and so the task didn't count any more... wait, what? Maybe you're a Goddess, but that's just not fair.
Did I mention that it had razor sharp fangs filled with poison AND that when you cut off one head it grew back and brought a friend? (Kind of like plucking a grey hair--don't try that at home folks;) AND one of the heads was immortal...IMMORTAL and he killed it anyway. Wait, what? Dead immortal....hmmm.
Nine heads...yikes...I can't keep one head looking any good.
