Why would a non-French person refer to their mother as "Maman?"

Is there a topic to chat about or is it just a chill chat place?

Well this is embarrassing.

Your flag made the quote believable. Plus, Maman is a term I've heard here in the Southern USA.

Though I will admit I was confused as your where referring to your mother rather then your boyfriend.

The only thing French they taught us in high school was The Song of Roland. I feel like I'm missing out here..

Heard of selkies before but haven't checked them out again yet. They're pretty interesting.
I think I need a link to a description of Men of the Forest.
Read and heard a lot about hellhounds/black dogs/Black Shucks. Pretty basic-sounding but they still make really good stories. There's also that legend that hellhounds ran down the aisles of two churches full of people, killing a few people and even supposedly leaving burn marks on one of the church's doors to this day.
The Beast Glatisant seems interesting but specific to Arthurian legend.
The Wiederganger is like a cross between a vampire and a zombie and I don't think I've heard of it before. That one is extremely noted.

It's as conceptually rock-simple as it gets, but there's all sorts of crazy/weird symbolism linked to it

That's also very interesting. Just an uncivilized furry man/woman in general concept, but it makes you wonder how much that actually means.

If these are just some favorites, then I assume you have more?

Because my RP is going to have a lot of pretentious existentialist themes and references.

e.g. "Schwerer Zarathustra."
