There’s a standard edition of Cartoon Saloon’s beautiful Irish Folklore Trilogy being released on 27th Feb.
It’s currently the same price as the deluxe version so if you haven’t bought this yet I’d grab the deluxe while it’s still available.
A really wonderful set.

In Norse myth, after the hero Sigurd slays the dragon Fafnir, he cooks the heart for his foster father, Regin. But he tastes Fafnir's blood & learns the language of birds, who warn of Regin's betrayal. He kills Regin & eats the heart, which grants him wisdom. #FolkloreSunday

@MariaStrutz Apparently the Korean ones were more vampiric but I only know about them through the Ahri character. I'm probably most familiar with the Japanese kitsune folklore and Tamamo-no-Mae - who also pops up in the Fate Grand Order game

Gyokutomon, the evolution of Lepumon, who was able to digivolve using the digiegg of friendship. Based on the Japanese folklore of the rabbit on the moon. I forgot his thigh armor, oops!
