Maniculum Bestiaryposting Results: Miscellaneous Snakes
We have snakes!
Surely y'all know the deal by now, but in case you don't, here's a link: https://maniculum.tumblr.com/bestiaryposting.
To see the entry on which these pictures are based, click here:
To see the one on which next week's will be based, so that you can participate if you like, click here:
Now, art below the cut:

@silverhart-makes-art (link to post here) decided to draw these four snakes. I think they all turned out pretty interesting -- the Kramlengga looks rather elegant, and I think the Mlegtugwam is kind of cute.





@citrvsdrake (link to post here) has done five separate drawings for five separate snakes. All of them are quite good, actually, but I do think the Mlegtugwam hiding in its cave up at the top there is particularly delightful.

@cheapsweets (link to post here) has drawn all of them. I like them a lot -- the Zriggwanto continues to be very funny visually, and the Krefemklog strikes me as particularly well-rendered here. My favorite, however, is the Thagolgrom entirely because he's in a mazer and I'm fascinated by those. They're a deep research dive waiting to happen to me. (Also, thank you for providing alt text.)

@coolest-capybara (link to post here) had the excellent idea to borrow the concept of the "wound man" diagram for this, so we can see all the dangers of the snakes at once. All of this is fantastic, but I think my favorite is the Samgleshti which has somehow burrowed into the gold-foil background as if it were sand.

@wendievergreen (link to post here) has done this really cool-looking thing with black paper. I love it. the Thagolgrom and Kramlengga look especially striking. For information about the real-life snakes that inspired all these different depictions, check out the linked post. (Also, thank you for providing alt text.)
All right, let's take a look at the Aberdeen Bestiary.
Mlegtugwam
... so that's not a snake. That is our Default Medieval Wyvern Thing. I think anything serpent-adjacent has a habit of turning into these when our artist is bored.
Anyway, it's an asp. Looks just like one, too. Note that it's plugging its ears, but I'm not sure that defends against being Hit With Stick.
Girtranaeg
Come on. I know we keep finding out new layers of England's shocking lack of animal species, but I know you know what a snake is. I'm 100% sure England has snakes. Adders, at least.
I have to hand this one to the artist, though, they did a good job making the scales look visually interesting.
On the other hand, this is the scitalis, which is not a real snake, so maybe it does look like this. What do I know.
(I'm glossing over a lot of these not just because there are a lot, but also because there really isn't that much more written about them than what we've already read.)
Hrukgolklo
I'm sure at least one of y'all clocked this one, and if nobody did, someone probably just realized when they saw the illustration. This is the amphisbaena, and the above is possibly the most famous illustration of one -- seriously, I see it everywhere.
Which is kind of annoying actually, because again that is not a picture of a snake. There's also this thing going on here, which CheapSweets seemed to reach on their own from first principles -- it's really easy to read the description of the amphisbaena moving in a circle as it rolling along like a hoop snake. You can even see that kind of happening in the illustration, with the head gripping the tail. It comes up in multiple illustrations of the thing.
Now, I've always read it as... when the amphisbaena is crawling along, the heads are right next to each other and moving in the same direction, so the body forms almost a complete circle. I have no idea if a snake could actually do that, but bestiary authors aren't anatomists. Because, like, okay: of all the snakes, the amphisbaena is the least equipped to do the hoop snake thing, because if it grips its tail with its mouth, it's also gripping its other head, which should be more difficult and less comfortable, right?
Sorry, this is something that's bothered me for years.
Oh, also, the amphisbaena is of course fictitious, as is the hoop snake.
Thagolgrom
No illustration for this one, because it's "a kind of asp", so it's rolled into that entry. This is the (as far as I know not real) dissa.
Shabalrang
As above, except this is the appropriately named ypnalis.
Tafmiwukri
This type of asp is called emorrosis. Which... also has a familiar ring to it. I'm tempted to start looking stuff up to see if all of these asps are named after the effects of their venom, but it's past 11pm and I don't have the time.
Krefemklog
This asp is called a prester, and rules over a country of obscene riches far to the east... wait, no, that's a different thing. This kind of prester is just a cool snake.
Kraehozdim
This is the boa. Which threw me, because I thought those were New World snakes. Turns out, though, the genus Eryx is found around the Mediterranean and in various parts of Africa and Asia, so okay then.
Nrogklongo
Another asp with no illustration! This one is called spectaficus, which sounds cool.
Samgleshti
For some reason this one also doesn't have an illustration, which makes me feel cheated. It's the cerastis, which also makes an appearance in the Wonders of the East, though I think they call it corsia or something. Not a real snake, in case anyone wasn't sure about the horns.
Zriggwanto
... huh. Well, okay, that does look like a javelin snake. This one is the jaculus, which I was ready to dismiss as another imaginary thing, but apparently there might be a grain of truth to it? It seems that the boa species Eryx jaculus is so named because of a claim that the ancient Greeks used to throw them at enemy ships during naval battles to cause fear and confusion among the opposing crew. Maybe. I don't have the time to look into the veracity of that one right now.
But how 'bout that, huh?
Kramlengga
You'd think that one of these snakes being distinguished by having wings would have discouraged the artist from putting wings on the rest of them, but... well. See, now they don't have anything neat to do with the illustration for the winged snake.
Anyway, this is the siren. No, not that one, those are separate and turn up in other bestiaries. This is the snake kind of siren. It's also not real, which is a trend in snakes apparently.
Galwinglik
This is the closest to "snake", even if it has a fox head. It is the seps, which is also not real.
Yeakrindra
No illustration for this one. It also didn't get a header; the text just segued right from "seps" to dipsa. Might have been a scribal error somewhere maybe? Anyway, the dipsa is also fictitious.
And... that's all of them.
Goodnight; dream of danger noodles.

Castiel deserved to shove his hand in Dean's chest to use his soul like a battery at least Once in the whole 15 seasons. Just saying.
#he got to do it to Sam it's not fair he didn't get to do it to Dean#the scene would have been way too gay for the CW#Jensen and Misha would have played it way too intense I feel it in my bones it would have been glorious#destiel

Day 9: Bones Are Needed (from @stychu-stych's cotltober prompt list)
'crusading for bones' is the least subtle innuendo in existence but give them a break, do you have any idea how hard it is to get time alone once you're a god
#cult of the lamb#cotl lamb#cotl narinder#narilamb#comic#cw: suggestive#they are 100% about to bone#cotltober#cultober#cotl follower#also puarjul is so tired#she knows goddamn well what they're about to do#she just hoped she was wrong#she's been the lamb's disciple for ages and she perpetually looks like she needs a smoke break

I really wish defeating Spore Mother didn’t cause Laughing Mold to disappear... it really was a fungi to have around, and the only member of the mold community who wasn’t morelly bankrupt.
