Here's my idea for a creature.
It is a bird, about the size of a Great Gray Owl. It's dark blue in color with bright orange eyes. It has long, skinny legs like a burrowing owl. On the top of it's head are two small, cat-like ears. It's beak is short and stubby. It has black streaks across it's body and black around it's eyes. It's feathers are very fluffy and they stick out. On it's head sit three, long white feathers.
 
Is that good?

Okay ^^ I'll enter<3 here's mine: it is sort of like a ferret, it has a longer body and is a pinkish-magenta in colour. It has a really long and frilly tail, with ribbonlike extensions going off the rear or its body. The ribbon extensions are a very pale purple. The tail of the creature is striped, black and white. And on the tip of its tail is a star with the five edges rounded, instead of pointed. The eyes are an emerald green colour. The bottom of its paws is a pale pink. The paw pads are the same pale purple as the ribbons flowing off of its body. It has a brownish-black nose. The whiskers are translucent white(just like a cats) the species is only found in female. Each Musret(the species) has round ears. The Musrets also have angelic wings a white colour with a pale blue tint. Imma go draw a picture now! :D and the Musret is now my fursona! NO stealing or I will eat you! D:<

This creatu's name is Kirame. The whole size of the creatu is 7 feet. The long wings pertrude from where it's front legs would be, but the stretch up to 5 feet. The main color of this creatu is Red, but there are several green and silver spots on the face of this creatu. This creatu has a long slender body of a K-9. The fur is short and fluffy. It has red feathers and a long, curly tail (Like a cat). The tail extends so long it can reach its head. Like a dog, it has a large head and long snout. Its has a black nose and regular dog teeth. As the back legs are like a normal house cat (along with paws), the front legs, well aren't legs; they're wings! This creatu can live anywhere is Rescreatu. It can fly over any ocean, it can climb any mountain (on two paws) and can swim anywhere. Thier favorite spot to live in the jungles of Aquati, but they also love the warm weather of Refliem.

It's called a saelourn (Orhinus leviathan).  They're enormous -- females can grow to 90 meters in length, and males to 80.  They're omnivorous fishes that live in the deep dark places of the ocean.  

They are believed to be distantly related to carp, but there is no fossil record of these giants, and very little is known about them.  For all their huge size, they can move very quickly if they have to, and are fairly agile creatures.  They rairly travel in groups, although during breeding season they may be seen in pairs.  Most times, they are seen alone.

Saelourn are surprisingly intelligent, and have been known to imitate the vocalizations of certain species of whale to bring them in close.  Usually they feed on a diet of deep-sea fishes and squids, but saelourn do eat whales when they can get them.  

They are long and narrow, with a long, bony fin along their dorsal side, and two fan-like fins that begin behind their heads and extend fully halfway down their bodies (these are parallel to the ventral side of the fish, as with koi or goldfish).  These fins are extremely mobile, but are usually tucked tight against the saelourn's body when swimming.  They swim with a ribbon- or eel-like motion.  Their heads most closely resemble those of barracuda.

These fishes tend to be colorful, unlike most creatures in their deep-sea habitat, with bioluminescent markings under their skin and long, trailing fins and tails.  The fins are believed to be used in mating displays and disputes over territory, although the trailing, glowing ends also act as false lures to attract prey.

Each saelourn has distinctive color patterns, usually in shades of blue and green, although one or two have been sighted with patterns of colors ranging from yellow to scarlet (a possible subspecies; these two were both seen at considerably shallower depths than most saelourn).

Saelourn females lay one spherical egg per season, nesting in the walls of deep-sea trenches, and are fiercely protective of their eggs and young.

I usually am better at drawing my creatures, but I'll give a whirl at describing one <3

This creature is about the size of a hummingbird if not slightly larger than one. It's soft,silk-like skin is protected by an outer shell that resembles the 'armor' like plating that a beetle has. It's tail extends and feathers out from under this 'armor'...it's about 6 inches long. Most of the tail is made up of just loose skin and muscle. This skin, when the creature jumps into the air, flattens out and acts as a tool to allow the creture to 'glide' when jumping from leaf to leaf or branch to branch. It's feet are flat and wide, a bit of a cross between a frog and a lizard's feet. It's second toe on it's hind legs is extremely long compared to the other toes. Each toe is equipped with a small but very sharp claw, that the creature uses to latch onto any surface. The claw is so small,however, that if it were to land on a human being, it would puncture the skin, but only make a small irritant itch or rash. It's front legs have rouch ridges along the back of the joints (elbows, ankles,etc). It's front feet resemble the back feet, but without the long second toe, and a bit smaller. (Back feet have dew claws, front do not. Each foot excluding dew claws has four toes).

It's chest also has a few layers of loose skin. During this creature's mating season, the males messily eat any berries it can find, making their loose skin upon their chest turn a certain bright color. It will puff out this skin like a fan, and 'dance' in front of a group of females, flashing the bright colors upon their chest, as well as emitting the aroma of the sweet berries that stained the skin. 

It has a rather long and flexible neck that extends past it's 'armor' shell, coming up to a head shaped much like a dinoasaur's. The back of the head is indented slightly, and small ridges produce what might be looked at as 'horns'. But they are very small and angle in an odd way. It could be just an evolutionary method of reducing the amount of heat taken from the sun on the back of the neck and head. The jaw comes at a slight curve, and inside the mouth lie two rows of tiny sharp teeth, and in the back are flat teeth ( making the creature an omnivore ). It's mannerisms are much like that of a small lizard, but it is considered a mammal. ( the skin is not scaley. it is smooth and blubber like a whale's ). This creature also loves to cling to things using it's tail ( like an opossum ). It uses a small tongue within it's maw, to flicker at the air and 'smell' with ( like how snakes 'smell, only the tongue is not forked. ) 

When a female gives birth to its young, the young live inside of the 'armor shell' upon the mother's back until they are mature and healthy enough to walk and glide alongside their mother. These creature mate for life, but have a group. The male claims a 'harem' of females, and only breeds with the few he chooses.  If a female dies in a male's harem, the male will never claim another. It remains with thelast few of his females. If a mother within the harem dies, the young are taken care of by the remaining females. 

Instead of producing milk, the females (while pregnant ) produce a thick frothy la
yer of liquid underneath it's armor shell. This brew of excrements from under the female's skin is packed full of nutrients, and is eaten by the young while they ride under the mother's shell. The smell of the brew is extremely pungent, acting as protection against predators as well ( nasty horrid smell= not good food).

 

Ummm...thats all I can think of for now. xD

Hiya, Here is mine

 

 You look deep into the water, you see a large dragon-like corpse laying in the water, its eyes are iridescent and very shiny. You also notice that its coloring is a pale purple and then you notice it has pearls embedded in its skin on its back. You dive into the water to get a closer look, you notice it also has many plates going along from its head to its tail that look like lasanga pasta noodles, they are a deep blue and shine brilliantly. You gently open its mouth and find out it has long sharp, golden teeth that it could use to tare its food apart, Meaning this creature is a carnivore, a creature whom eats meat. There are ridges above its eyes and it has long snout with some of its teeth potruding from its mouth. You notice it is quite skinny and has almost skeletal-like limbs with round fins that it uses to glide through the water and intense speeds.

 

They are active at night when the moon is shining, the pearls on its back shine brilliantly in the moonlight. You turn over the dragon so its laying on its back. Its entire belly is embedded with sharp shards of amytheyst, definatly not the type of creature you want to cuddle with, you think too yourself. Its tail is long and has a large translucent aqua blue fin that looks like a dolphins, at the end of its tail. They are very beautiful but they are very aggressive, which is why we had to examine a corpse of one so we could get a close look at it and take it back to the lab for more research.

The Scyrei (See-ray)
I shall describe my creatu by stage 8D

EGG:
The egg, unlike most eggs, is not one hollow space, but is made up instead of a single long, thick, hollow tube. The tube is irridesent, and electric blue in color. It wraps around itself several times, creating a vaguely egg-shaped knot, which has a clear chicken-egg-sized space in the center, where the baby grows. When the time comes for the baby to hatch, it wriggles out of the empty space and into the tube through a thin membrane. It twists through the tube until it reaches the tube's end on the outermost la
yer of the knot. The tube's end is more fragile than the rest of the egg, allowing the baby to easily break through and out of the egg.

BABY:
The Scyrei has no legs, but instead a long snake-like body. The baby, although only two inches in diameter, is extremely long-- nearly four feet right out of the egg. The Scyrei has a long, pointed muzzle, closely resembling the Egyptian god Anubis. The tip of the tail branches of into three scaley points. When first hatched, the baby's ears are stuck flat to the baby's head due to the baby's lack of muscle coordination, and what would be near-perfect hearing is impaired, causing the baby to be deaf. The baby's eyes are also sealed shut when born, so it is blind as well. It relies on sensing heat and its sense of smell to see where its going. The baby Scyrei is covered in thick scales that protect it, which are bright orange. The scales on its stomach are cream colored. To keep itself warm, the baby wraps around itself, making it seem much smaller than it actually is.

TEEN:
As a teen, the Scyrei has quadrupled in size, being 16 feet long and 8 inches thick. Its oversized fennec-fox-like ears stand up straight on its head, and its eyes are vivid orange with cat's pupils. It's strangest feature are the large areas of its body that have sprouted long, plush, cerulean blue fur over its orange scales. The fur that  grows over the cream colored scales on the stomach is sea-foam white. The muzzle and ears are completely covered with fur, because the fur is shorter and grows in first. The rest of the fur grows in in random places. Because the Scyrei's senses have developed, it becomes very curious, usually sticking its nose where it doesn't belong. Because it is so long, it wraps itself in knots to keep from getting tangled in bushes and trees. The three tips of their tail begin to harden.

ADULT:
As an adult, the Scyrei is completely covered in fur-- no scales show through it, because the fur is so thick. The three tail tips harden completely, and are razor sharp. The Scyrei's body is nearly 35 feet long, and a full foot in diameter. The adult becomes so knotted around itself that it is difficult to tell where its body is among the lucious fur. The Scyrei's senses are very keen, allowing it to hear, smell, and see things miles away. Because it is carnivorous, these senses help it when tracking down prey. Though it is toothless, it can emit a sweet smell from glands located behind its ears, which draws prey in close enough for the Scyrei to use their tail-spikes.

And that, is my Creatu. =D EDIT: sorry, I just noticed a small typo and it was annoying me. XD

Okay. Lemme give this a try...

The Statso

As an egg, the Statso is a fair size, somewhat the size of a small adult dog. It is a very glossy shell, a grassy green in color. It is very smooth on the outside. As it nears the stage of being a baby, it turns very rough and a very gross colour of green.

As a baby, the Statso is only as big as its egg. It has a very wolf-like appearence, but with small wings and an Hawk-like beak and eyes.It has a playful personality as a baby, also known as a "pup." The tail is as long as a normal wolf's tail, but is literally feathery. It is covered in feathers, in other words. The fur on the Statso is a grassy green and it is very long and silky, but the feathers on its tail are a sky blue and a grassy green, almost like tie-die.

As a teen, the Statso is much bigger, the size of an adult Golden Retriever. It starts to grow a bit more serious, but still has a playful personality. Some of its fur on the rest of its body have started to trun a sky blue, blending in with its natural green colour. The beak grows bigger and stays black and the eyes stay a golden colour.

As an adult, the Statso is the size of an adult human when the statso is on all fours. It is very serious and doesnt have its playful personality anymore.Its fur is still a blend of blue and green, as its nattie colour. Its tail has very long feathers of a blue and green tie-die colour. Its beak and eyes stay the same, making them look a little small for the adult Statso.

 Hows that?
