Acanthus is a genus of spiny plants named from the Greek myth of Acantha, a nymph who rejected Apollo's advances and scratched his cheek. So he turned her into a spiny plant...

4. Favorite OC design
I ALSO CAN'T CHOOSE. I really loved my Mage: The Awakening Acanthus, Epiphany, because I could endlessly dress her in cute outfits. But I also really really like Leuce, just from a color/shape perspective...

Polacanthus and Ankylosaurus by B. H. Robinson. I include both because the publishers switched the names in the captions and because the Ankylosaurus has that bonkers spikes-all-around tail that almost made me include it in the old school Scolosaurus thread.
