#temple cryptid

All around the world and ready to accept offerings, these are some of the most benevolent and generous cryptids. Temple cryptids choose to change their forms to resemble deities from different religions and practices from around the world and whichever temple they choose to inhabit. Any offerings left in the temple will occasionally be taken by them and something is always left in return, whether it is a little money, food or an answer to a question. They try to avoid being seen by humans, but will converse with them if caught. Diet wise, they'll usually eat precious metals and jewels, but aren't above eating any pests that get into the temple to help keep it clean for any visitors.
