If you haven't heard of it, check out the A to Z blog and join in the fun.
Here at Untethered Realms, we're taking on the Challenge as a group. Each day, one of us will be sharing with you a fantastical creature that may be from one of our books, a favorite movie, or something we just came up with as entertainment.

Today we have...

S is for Satyrs


Ah, those randy Satyrs, always after the human women. One of the central characters in my Jewels of Chandra series is half-satyr. Lothan is introduced in book one, Diamonds and Dust. His magic comes from his music, playing a flute, and his storytelling skills. He has the ability to bend people's emotions and starts riots when he's not careful about it.

What do you think about Satyrs? These women seem to be enjoying his company!

  1. I am a little bit huffy that Satyrs are male. It sounds like a fun, albeit dangerous, job.

  2. It can be a bit hairy, too, EC. ;)Although, they have hooves so they don't have to wear shoes...

  4. I think the person who invented them would have been a romance writer in another life!

  6. Hi River .. looks like the women are trying to pull him apart and he's somewhat anxiously hanging on ...

    Lothan certainly has to control his emotions and magic .. I wouldn't like to be around if things go wrong ..

    Cheers Hilary

  13. Lothan sounds like a pied piper. I can imagine the women not only following, but chasing him!

    I think it might take more than that for me - but, my mother always said that I was easily led - so, who knows?

  17. It looks like those women have tuckered that poor Satyr out. He seems to be protesting a bit! Lothan is one of my favorite characters in your book.

  18. Patricia - You're right. Satyrs aren't real common...which is why I'm attracted to them. :)

    Christine - I'm so glad you enjoyed Lothan! He's such a fun goat (as Rhone would say). ;)

  19. I drew a picture of a "randy" Satyr once. It was quite fun.

  20. I can imagine the fun, Michael! Did you use a stiff pen to draw with? ;)

    ReplyDelete
  21. What a great painting! And I find the idea of a super-sexy creature who can draw women in an evocative idea. Lots to work with in a plotline.

  22. Catherine - They're rather less-than-pleasant to the men in the group...and very strong! :)

  23. Dang, he's definitely got something going for him. I wonder if it's his... hooves?
