as far as i know, (i may be wrong) the Yule cat is a monster from Celtic mythology that looks like a cat, except they are enormous, larger than a house. They prowl the streets on the holidays, and eat anyone who has old clothes.

Christmas monsters are really fun. Krampus is one of my favorites. He is a chained goat demon who goes around on Christmas beating the naughty with birch rods, and occasionally kidnapping kids in his basket. He is followed by imps, and a strange thing is that he is in league with Saint Nicholas. Saint Nick takes care of the nice kids, and Krampus gets the naughty ones.
There are also the thirteen Yule Lads from Icelandic mythology. They are the sons of Gryla and Leppaludi who are flesh eating giants. The Yule cat was supposed to be their pet cat. Each Yule Lad has a name that reflects how they like to harass people, and they each come out one at a time during the thirteen days leading up to Yule. They leave small gifts in the shoes of the nice kids, but the naughty ones get a rotten potato.
Then there is Befana from Italian legend. Also known as La Strega (the Witch) Befana flies on a broom leaving treats in the shoes and stockings of children. She probably originated as a goddess of the hearth, and sometimes she appears with Rododsa and Maratega and they all spin the fates of humankind.

Yep, Christmas monsters are fun.
Humans never fail to make things dark and gruesome.

A cat-sìth walks in: A messenger black and white Bumping nerdy threads
Cat-sith are cool.
You create haiku about mythological creatures too? I have done that too.
Wendigo howls when
It hungers, so when does it?
It howls forever.
That one was done by a friend who was fixing a haiku I wrote that is practically the same. This one is about a monster I wrote about early in this thread, the Fetch, also known as the Co-walker. It is probably not that great.
what do you wanna talk about?
I am also here.
Am snek.
I like Greek mythology. :)
Ever Heard of the Yule cat?

Yeah.
Guess the god:
I am also here.
Am snek.
My best guess is Demeter.
I’m hopeless if its anything but Greek mythology.
It's greek, but not Demeter, I'm afraid

Kronos? His symbol is the sickle.
I really like D&D, especially Ravenloft, Exandria and the Upside Down from Stranger Things. My pronouns are she/they (genderfae).
But what does Kronos have to do with wheat?
True…

You are correct!
Explenation:
Used a sickle to cut off his father's business
Ate a rock that he thought to be Zeus
Cronus was often seen as a god of grain and harvest

Ah
Thanks! Now it makes sense.

Fear the duplicate
The Co-walker foretells death
Resembles the doomed.
Both good, I think! I love the Wendigo one, especially! I saw in someone's signature that they like Haiku so I thought I'd give it a (topical) go.
