BAPHOMET
Religious being

Often confused for a harmful or sacrificial monster by stereotype, the Baphomet is a symbol of balance, wisdom, independence, and duality. In my personal religion, LaVeyan Satanism, the baphomet is a being that represents the importance of fate and the relationship between good and evil. The baphomet takes many forms, but is most popularly represented with a black goat or the famous Levi's Baphomet which contains binary oppisites in form; male and female body parts, along with animal & human features.

It is often seen as a wise yet mischievous being who understands that despite being disciplined, one can have fun with the joy and power of it's knowledge.

suidae
boars, swine, etc

The family of Suidae is notorious for it's defensive tactics, headstrong attitude, body strength, and impressive intelligence. Swine are capable of outsmarting other animals and may often be deceptive or even dangerous to those who doubt their abilities. Although their status has been ruined by crude stereotypes, suidae are very keen on their personal clenliness, and are empathetic to their family members.
Although mostly passive, suidae can grow quickly aggressive when pressured or when confronted harshly. Suidae are notorious for surviving harsh conditions ranging from boiling hot tempatures to even radioactivity.

A swine who feels as if they or their friends are in danger will stop at nothing to gore those who made the mistake of denying their capability.

Equine
horses, ponies, etc.

Symbols of strength, elegance, and rebellion- the horse and it's family members are notorious for having unique personalities and human-like temperament, able to experience anger, grief, happiness, and other emotions similarly. Their attitudes vary between each individual, but most equine are loyal, protective, and empathetic to their families and loved ones.

A horses' strength and determination is unmatched to anything else on earth, commonly flaunted in races and by equestrian sports around the world. Wild horses are symbols of freedom without restraint. Equine are often linked with moving forward into the future and desire to fulfill goals. Truly a symbol of duality, horses are both equally caring yet dangerous.

Canis Lupus
Wolves

A strong, spiritual connection I've felt ever since I was young, wolves are often seen as symbols of independence, strength, wisdom, guardianship, loyalty, and trust. Wolves are deemed monsters by fiction, but are thoughtful of their surroundings, family, and peers. Often misunderstood, wolves are normally defensive, but calm- but will not hesitate to attack if threatened or if they feel that you are intruding where you shouldn't be.

Wolves are very keen with their senses and have knowledge of the forest, in which they trust their instincts to push them through dangerous situations, trials, or challenges that come their way.

If you cannot face the wolves, don't come to the forest.
