Lindwyrm - Tumblr Posts
I have been obsessed with the story of the lindworm prince and with my fariy tail fix it felt perfect!! For those who don’t know the story of the lindworm prince or the bride of the rose beast is a Norwegian tale of a queen and king who where unable to have children, but one day, a witch decided to help the queen, by telling her to place a cup at the corner of her garden, upside down and then to remove it in the morning, and when the queen did there was a red and white rose, if she ate the white one, she would get a daughter if she had the red she would have a son, but the queen could not decide which to choose and ate both of the roses and nine months later she gave birth to a healthy, baby boy and a dragon, the lindworm prince. the firstborn the dragon was thrown out the window by one of the midwives but years later, the younger prince encounters, his older brother, who tells him “a bride for me before a bride for you”, and since the dragon was older, it made sense. the king proceeded to marry two princesses to his dragon son who his son ate, and when he demanded a third, the king sent a shepherd girl, who, with the help of the witch, was able to turn the dragon back into a normal prince by having him shade 10 layers of his skin, and then hitting him with a lye covered whip, and then splashing milk in his face and giving him a hug and then they got married. It’s a silly story, and I love it so much I might actually recreate this story with my oc cryo and Erik hence the art work above.
The Lyndworm Animagius Harry Potter Au Brainrot that I can't escape
my au is very specific and won't get out of my head, idk if I'm gonna write a fic but if I do it'll start in 4th year probably or be told in snippets
Now it's ur problem too! :)
Harry takes anchent runes in this au
That's how he made the cat shapeshifting necklace. It was plan B.
(Harry is slytherin in this au, and personally has never trusted Albus Dumbledore)
He wanted to have an animal form for stealth and sneaking purposes since dumbles doesn't give him the cloak in this au cuz hes in Slytherin
But his animagus form said FUCK STEALTH
It may be the smallest species of dragon to ever exist, but it's still way to fucking big for stealth.
Sooo.. cat amulet/necklace thing. Unfortunately this is also not the best either cuz his fur is very unique and rememberable.
(also he thinks his fur's kinda a dead giveaway for who he is, yet somehow Snape is the only one who recognizes him on sight??? Like how?? It's so obvious???? Harry lives in constant confusion at the actions of the wizarding poplulas)
And since Lyndwurms are usually very sneaky looking that's where Harry gets the parseltounge ability, all the snakes think he has a weird growlly-growllish accent.
The wings flap like- alternately? (When the front ones go up the back ones go down and vice versa) And when they rub together fast it creates static electricity' otherwise his movements are just kinda floaty like a fairy fly, (which is a real thing, microscopic fly that basically swims thru air with it's giant fairy wings hence the name.)
This species of dragon mostly eats birds and fish and is a very good swimmer- Just picture like- an electric eel crossed with a dragonfly.
it is also very very extinct so everyone is confused in the beginning except Charlie the token dragon nerd who has read every dragon book ever.
He is also a pretty boy, because I said so. Harry deserves to be pretty. He has heterochromia? (Is it called that when it's just the hair?)
A little lindwyrm I drew a while back. It's all sketch lines and fill tool, but I think it's nice bc I just like dragons. Art tips more than welcome.
