Creatures from Chinese mythology - Four Symbols addition (Lion Dance, Dijiang, Jingwei, Jian Birds, Peng) (3/3)

Lion Dance: One of the many myths associated with the Lion Dance is the tale of the Nian. In ancient times, a beast called the Nian would descend upon villages every year, devouring crops and people. The Lion Dance (along with firecrackers and the color red) was used to drive away the Nian, allowing the villagers to live in peace for another year.

Dijiang: Dijiang is a creature with no face and six legs. It lives in a state of perpetual confusion. Despite this, it is very fond of singing and dancing. Some sources describe it as a divine bird.

Jingwei: Jingwei was a girl that drowned at sea, and her spirit was reincarnated as a bird. She tirelessly throws sticks and stones into the sea to fill it up so that no one would have to suffer the same fate she did.

Jian Birds: The Jian is a mythical one-eyed, one-winged bird. In order to fly, a Jian needs to find a partner Jian. Paired Jian birds are known as Jianjian.

Peng: Peng, sometimes called Dapeng,are birds with wingspans thousands of miles wide. They can take the form of an equally enormous fish known as Kun.

#I’m excited for the popularity poll thing we have coming up #I’ll probably repost this list with less characters when the first elimination round ends #dislyte

[ilikedyourablogithere]

DiJiang is a chaotic dancing deity and when he died (they were trying to help him honest) he was reincarnated as The Hundun of The 4 Perils, the chaotic being who doesn't know good or evil

so depending on where you heard the mythology from yes, DiJiang and The Hundun are the same but also ... not really. again it depends on where you hear it from

so seeing how they creators went out of the way to say DiJiang I'm assuming they meant the former rather than the later

That being said I still believe Wu You has got to be Shadow Decree

cause she's being introduced with Chu Yao and from the lore we know for a fact...this dude pulls shimmer units

Like she just has to be right?

Have you ever seen a Dijiang?

Not in person, but I am aware of the myths and lore surrounding them.

[chaobunnyarts]

Chai's and Grimm's Ancients, Azem and Thalia (and their transformations)! I wound up totally redesigning Thalia between the first and second illustrations haha.

More about Azem and Thalia under the cut (lots of facts about Chinese mythology incoming)!

Azem

Her true name is Amalthea, and her transformed form is based on the Qilin from Chinese mythology!

Azem's familiar is a collective of ten three-legged crows named Sanzuwu, though she was not their original creator. The Sanzuwu were originally created by the Words of Lahabrea, and she earned the Sanzuwu's trust and respect after she stopped them from burning the sky.

She entrusted the Sanzuwu with one of her eyes so that she could keep watch over her beloved home when her duties took her far from Amaurot.

Thalia

Thalia is really bad at magic! Though she works hard, she hasn't been able to devise her own spells, so she uses an ancient form of blue magic instead. Despite her shortcomings, somehow Azem chose her as her apprentice!

Thalia's transformed form is based on several beings from Chinese mythology (Hundun and Dijiang).

Hundun is a diety representing the primordial chaos. Hundun is often described as a faceless being. However, he died when some well-meaning gods tried to give him a face.

Dijiang is a creature that lives in perpetual confusion and loves to sing and dance, often depicted with no face, four wings, and six legs. Dijiang and Hundun are often conflated because of their shared lack of face.

Koza is all set!

Made for  Sodiumkoza on Twitter!

Sweet little Koza is made of minky, custom dyed minky, and some magnets to attach accessories. They sit at about 16 inches from the top of the head to the rump, 19 inches including the hair. The face and some of the markings on the body (and accessories) are machine embroidered and appliqued. There is a magnet located in the right side (their left) of the head/horn to attach the butterfly and flower accessories; the tennis ball horn covers can be pulled on or off of the horns (there are holes on part of the balls to slide on or off). The arms are stuffed loosely around the shoulder area to make them floppy and slightly poseable.

This little one is what I am VERY lovingly calling a frankenplush, because it is a mish-mash of multiple edited plush patterns! The head is a heavily edited/refines verison of Jakkob’s head, the body is part of my bagbean pattern, the horns are my goat AC pattern, cloven hooves are Lilibet’s, and the hands are Guilmon’s and the scalloped hoof fluff is part of Dijiang.

This pattern still took a little while to make honestly, haha! I attempted to go with a Kemono style, and honestly I think I need to do a little more studying on the style! I REALLY like how the general body shape, especially the soft muzzle transition, but it feels like something is still missing.  

Aside from that, another thing mentioned on my first post about Koza, I was disappointed I couldn’t dye the base coat to be darker. :( I was excited to work on color matching until I finished patterning and realized this little one would be using close to 2/3rds of a yard. 1/4th of a yard of minky in my dye pot is pushing at and usually leads to getting some nasty blotchy colors. I was able to at least source a color similar to Ash that felt a tiiiiny bit cooler to the base color than Ash. I did spend quite a bit of time bouncing between Ash, and the color used. ^^; Oh! The lighter grey was also a struggle,  since it seems like I had the same color (Charcoal) but both were entirely different colors- one was a tiny bit more red/warm and the other had a... yellowish? hue. Oddly both are also fabrics that have been in my stash for a while!

Anyways! Moving on! One of my favorite little features is the little scalloped floofs! I used a similar, if not the same as the concept used to make Dijiang’s scalloped detailing! I love the almost seamless transition and luckily only needed some minor anchoring stitching to keep them in place! ^u ^ The cloven hooves too! I like to believe that I improved the patterning from Lilibet, but I think it’s only because they’re more defined and slightly larger. :)

Cutting this write up a little short, but overall, Koza was super fun to work on! her expression is something I absolutely love, and don’t always have a chance to work on, smiles and sweet little eyes are always but, unique expressions always hold a special place in my heart (Also eyebrows!)! <3

Will Dylan visit Qilin Island (an interdimensional nexus between Earth and Ta-Lo (the heaven where the Chinese Panthaeon reside) the form of an ancient stone gateway (paifang) exists on Qilin Island, a remote island in the East China Sea hidden away by powerful magic.) & get to see the celestial dragons, phoenix-like fenghuang, the hoofed qilin beasts, the canine-like haetae, the vulpine-like jiuweihu, and the winged dijiang in his story?

Heaven has different islands/mountains/kingdoms but Dylan sticks to Mount Kunlun and the skysea since his protection only goes as fas as there.

Various creatures roam the mountain and he's fond of the local fauna (more so than the gods lol). Dylan will interact with all sorts of denizens of Heaven in his story!

#ask #anon #callyieverse #Dylan masters #qilin island is a MCU creation so it's not canon to what I had in mind #the reason why is because in Chinese mythos there are eight or more mountains and each with it's own ruler and environment #those are the ones I'm excited to explore!

“Whatever did happen to the Dijiang?”

“What Dijiang are you talking about? Specificity is important, especially in the context of the multiverse. I’m sure I have no idea what you’re talking about, my friend.” He knew exactly what Wong was talking about.

morris has decided viejita is a friend, and stumbles awkwardly between jake’s legs to nuzzle the strange naked cat.

" ¿Qué vas a? ¿Qué estás haciendo? " Jake almost jumps back, but he doesn't want to disturb the cat, who was snoozing on his lap. It's too late, though, the dijiang has already made its way on his lap and bats a paw at Viejita, who jumps, claws out and digging into Jake's skin as she struggles to get away from Morris. " Qué demonios! " He quickly picks up the cat and moves her away from the creature. " Shangqi, please move that thing away from my cat. Else it's gonna get ugly. "
