Board Thread:False Info and Speculative Discussion/@comment-24439517-20140814002326

I think the route Jeff Davis has taken is aboslutely stupid, they've added rougly 10+ creatures to the show in 4 seasons, and given little back story to almost all of them.

Shapeshifters:

Werewolf: (Decent forms, but so inconsistent with how they're different) (obviously a essential speices)

We know a lot about them but clearly they're a complicated species. We do not know all their little Alpha secrets and how truly strong/fast an Alpha can be, and there has to be a stopping point to their power from Betas, they can't just make 10 000 betas? And the variations? Omega, beta, Alpha, True Alpha, demon-Wolves and their Alpha forms, again we know nothing.

Kanima: (Amzing unique form) (Very useful creature, very unique)

Well we know a great deal about these bad boys so I'd say it's pretty sufficent.

Werecoyote: (Copied form from Werewolf and inconsistent) (Very pointless creature, so far.)

Absolute sweet nothing, pointless and stupid creature, looks exactly the same as a Werewolf, all chacteristics are the same, unless Malia's mother gives us a crap done of details and differences compared to Werewolves then this species is pointless.

Kitsune: (No form seen) (A very pointless species)

A complete dumb idea, barely a shapeshifter at all, a whole series devoted to them all we know is they can use sword well and thats pretty much it, and they're eyes are dark brown. WE KNOW NOTHING.

Nogitsune: (No form seen) (Arguements can be made for and against this species being added, if it was a good idea)

Are these any different to a Kitsune? Nope, they're an evil Kitsune, not a seperated speices more of a subdivision, they have a great deal of super strenth though it seems.

Werejaguar: (Cool form, very unique) (Potentially a good species)

We haven't seen to much of them yet, so I can't really judge fairly so I'll give them the benfit of the doubt.

Wendigo: (well again this form is half decent, but nothing unque really) (Un-useful and silly, this creature could've had so much potential, so much wasted here)

Probably won't see them again, so much potnetial with the creature and it's form but wasted, would've had a pack of mindless, bloodthirsty Wendigo's running loose and murdering with awesome forms but nope, they wrecked this hard.

Other supernaturals:

Druid/Darach (No forms) (A worthy add)

We again know little, but there is little to know anyway, so it's a good add.

Banshee: (No form) (A worthy add)

We know a little about them, but enough to make them useful so good choice Jeff.

Onis: (Unique form) (A worthy add)

We know everythng you could need to know about these fella's so good choice again Dave-o.

Berserker: (Half-decent form) (A worthy add, hype was bulit well)

Would've rathered them be a shapshifter but, what can you do? These creatures aren't explained at all like how they come to exist and etc but they're cool to look at.



Mute?: (hopeless form) (POINTLESS species)

Should've made this one human, we still have no clue what he is or how he came to be, HE SHOULD BE ON THE DEADPOOL, he's supernatural? STUPIDITY!! Hate this one so much.

So out of these of the 12 supernatural speices we've seen so far this is my opinion on them:-

Good forms - 5/10 have good forms (banshees and druids don't count)

Creatures with purpose - 7-8/12

Creautures with a completed or close-to info on them - 5-6/12

The only real way I see Jeff getting out of these holes is to make an official beastiary thats canon, similar to the 3-page one he just did. But no matter what adding some of these species was the dumbest ideas he's had becasue they contribute nothing, it's overwhelming, disables the necessity to learn about already existing creatures and it's generally pointless. Too many creature's is annoying because it's too complicated for the show.
