Which Mythical Creature Are You? Dragons, Unicorns and Four More
Mythical creatures have stood for human qualities for thousands of years, which makes them a natural fit for a personality quiz. Answer seven questions about glowing doors, treasure, bad days and favourite colours, and you come out as one of six: the dragon, the unicorn, the phoenix, the mermaid, the griffin or Pegasus.
Each result reflects what the creature has meant in stories. The dragon is the fierce guardian, brave and a little dramatic. The unicorn is the kind heart who sees the best in people. The phoenix is the comeback kid, because in legend it is reborn from its own ashes. The mermaid is the creative dreamer, the griffin is the honest defender, and Pegasus is the imagination that wants to fly off somewhere new.
Every result also tells you where the legend comes from. The unicorn is the national animal of Scotland. Dragons bring luck rather than trouble in Chinese tradition. Mermaid stories go back to the ancient Syrian goddess Atargatis. Pegasus comes from Greek myth, where the strike of his hoof made a spring that inspired poets. It is a small, painless way into myths and legends for a class, and a good conversation starter at home.
The questions suit children and adults equally, so it works on a classroom screen, at a sleepover or round a family table. Everyone can take it on the same phone in a few minutes and compare.
