Medusa. She makes me rock hard. Also, no hair in the shower drain is a nice bonus.

Plot twist: snakes in the shower drain

[โ€“] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 24 points 9 months ago

I'm tired of all these motherfucking snakes, in this motherfucking drain!

[โ€“] QT1@feddit.de 4 points 9 months ago

Hmm, I didnโ€™t think that out. Still better than hair though

Rosie Cotton dancing. She had ribbons in her hair. If ever I was to marry someone, it wouldโ€™ve been her.

A human. Definitely a human. They seem to always be present in folklore and fantasy.

One of the main characters in a story in writing is a huldra. Are you Scandinavian, or the only other American that knows wtf they are? Lol

Gonna just have to admit I do not know what that means. Lol.

[โ€“] neidu2@feddit.nl 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Ahh, thank you. Haha

@DharmaCurious I thought huldres are well known? Maybe less than trolls but there are so many in fairy stories.

[โ€“] pan_troglodytes@programming.dev 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

marry, or just commit carnal acts with?

[โ€“] VanHalbgott@lemmus.org 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

ah. Ms. Pacman then

[โ€“] gilgameth@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

Leela from Futurama, easy.

[โ€“] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 9 months ago

Lilith. Or maybe Lamia.

Hmm. I am already married to a human, but do love a guy with wings. Angel, devil, whatever. Wings are good.

Half elf.

Actual elf would be too sad, since they're going to live for several thousand years and I would only be a blink in their existence, but a half elf, barring any kind of gigantic world upset would get to live until our grandkids grandkids grew up and they're continued presence in the world would ensure that the my presence in the world did not fade so quickly.

My partner.

If that's against the rules I'm choosing a selkie because there's an outside chance that my partner is in fact a selkie.

Witch/wizard. 100%

[โ€“] PrivateNoob@sopuli.xyz 3 points 9 months ago

Catgirl or doggirl. Sorry, I'm basic.

[โ€“] koncertejo@lemmy.ml 3 points 9 months ago

Beautiful elf maiden

I had never thought of that before but the first thing that came to my mind was Fran from Final Fantasy 12.

She is 70% legs.

[โ€“] pdavis@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

I have a list of of interesting characters, but sticking to pure "fantasy or folklore" I will go with Aasimar.

Valkyrie. The young ones, not the hags.

Lae'zel from BG3, she is ROC epic

I was more thinking of their ability to shapeshift. I wouldn't mind someone who could shapeshift into Brad Pitt one day and Tom Cruise the next day depending on how I feel.
