Looking at the idea of world building. Moshi monsters is a huge community that has developed beyond its online creature portal to multiple games and merchandising.
Where do these ideas originate? We can look back in history to the various monster mythologies up to King Kong’s island. Even better…Monster island! Has its own airport apparently!
Excellent monster myths book. Full of interesting historical mythology and factoids.
On a side note also check out ‘Breverton’s Nautical Curiosities’. Pirates, privateers and curious tales of the sea…yar!
