Personally its all on the Hydra.

This thing doesn't get enough screen time or love (especially in games) in my opinion, it grows back its fucking heads when you cut 'em off.
You can't get much better than that.

[Veelk]

I've always been partial to dragons and pheonix's. However, Angels currently have my intrigue. What I like about them is that they are a pretty diverse bunch, from the faithful to the fallen, so you can have a lot of different dynamics in stories about them.

Edit: Oh, and fairies, like the Sidhe. Awesome stuff.

 

[King Boo]

*remembers heroes of might and magic*

all of them.

I don't know about the best but Bigfoot/Sasquatch will always be my favorite.

Angles are pretty cool, mostly because their descriptions are exaggeratedly convoluted.

 

[Giant Robot]

Cthulhu

[XenodudeX]

Cockatrice. Magical chicken dragon that can petrify/kill by looking at something.

Oh, and ichthyocentaurs. I mean, seriously, who the hell thought of that?

 

[Bit-Bit]

Chinese Dragons are the shit.

They control weather and shit. Plus they have their own kingdom and can take on other shapes and forms.

They could be walking among us right now!

 

[Can Crusher]

First post nails it, it's always going to be Dragons.

[Violet_0]

always been a fan of the cockatrice

and Sphinxes are awesome

pretty much all the typical Greek and Norse bestiary, actually

 

[Deified Data]

Fictional. Not mythological.

Lovecraft's works combine for form a popular mythos. I think his pantheon have more than earned their right to be regarded as mythic creatures.

 

[ColtraineGF]

Dragons

[NoRéN]
