For some, a Spirit Animal is an otherworldly guide who appears to offer love, healing, and support during difficult times. To others, a Spirit Animal is the same as a Totem Animal – it's who you really are.

I've been doing some worldbuilding lately, and my current world involves spirit guides in it. So I've been taking a bunch of these spirit animal quizzes online for, um, research. They're pretty addictive.

Apparently, my character Eli has an owl.

The owl spirit animal is emblematic of a deep connection with wisdom and intuitive knowledge. If you have the owl as totem or power animal, you’re likely to have the ability to see what’s usually hidden to most. When the spirit of this animal guides you, you can see the true reality, beyond illusion and deceit. The owl also offers for those who have it a personal totem the inspiration and guidance necessary to deeply explore the unknown and the magic of life.

Owl Symbolism
• Intuition, ability to see what others do not see
• The presence of the owl announces change
• Capacity to see beyond deceit and masks
• Wisdom
• The traditional meaning of the owl spirit animal is the announcer of death, most likely symbolic like a life transition, change

This is totally legit XD.
Not a bad result for him. But I'd rather give him a fanfin anglerfish. I mean, he obviously needs one of these beauties.

PRO: Anglerfish are wonderful at providing a gentle, inviting light in deep, dark places. If you have the anglerfish as a spirit animal, you dive into spiritual depths that could crush others. You glow with your own internal radiance (with the help of certain kinds of bacteria).
CON: The light is so you could lure others to their doom. Specifically, into your stomach. Not cool.

PRO: Anglerfish have disproportionately enormous heads and jaws and can devour sea creatures up to twice their size. This obviously symbolizes power, ingenuity, and an ability to tackle problems much bigger than yourself. People tend to underestimate you.
CON: Having a disproportionately large head can make anglerfish look horrifyingly hideous. But then again, it's really dark down there where they live, so it doesn't really matter.

PRO: As an anglerfish, you know how to deal with with the bone-crushing loneliness of the lightless depths. You just absorb other people into your body! You never have to be lonely again!
CON: Uh, this is just getting really sad now, so I'll stop. ^^;

If your character had a spirit/power animal (or any kind of spirit guide), what would it be?

The snake is powerfully connected to life force and primal energy. In many cultures, it is revered as a powerful totem representing the source of life. When the snake spirit animal appears in your life, it likely means that healing opportunities, change, important transitions, and increased energy are manifesting.

This is ironic in every way. My OC's clan is called "Ouroboros".

The Bear

This is, surprisingly accurate actually. Kyoraku does always try to be a guide to those around him and support them (especially his childre) either physically and emotionally... though not to great success.

Also, it reminds me of his abilities as well. Part of his power is the ability to influence the surroundings in his ‘territory’ so in that sense, I suppose the part about ‘being in touch with the earth and the cycles of nature does kind of ring true. ^^

I’ll do another character of mine in a bit, this is pretty fun actually!

i mean, Nirvana is anything but graceful or light, but that part about the need for profound change or transformation is pretty accurate. a good part of Nirvana's character revolves upon self-reflection and transformation- that sort of trope where the protagonist unlocks their true self and stops being afraid, if you will.
