NAME:  Susano-O No Mikoto


          DESCRIPTION
          In Japanese mythology, Susano-o, the powerful storm
          Kami of Summer, is the brother of Amaterasu, the Kami
          of the Sun, and of Tsukuyomi, the Kami of the Moon.
          When he was to leave Heaven by orders of Izanagi, he
          went to bid his sister goodbye. Amaterasu was suspicious,
          but when Susano-o proposed a challenge to prove his sin-
          cerity, she accepted. Each of them took an object of the                                 Points
          other's and from it birthed gods and goddesses. Amaterasu
          birthed three women from Susano-o's Totsuka-no-Tsurugi                                   Ki Energy: 133
          while he birthed five men from her necklace. Claiming                                    Exp. Points: 545
          the Kami were hers because they were born of her neck-
          lace, and the Female Kami were his, she decided that she
          had won the challenge, as his item produced women. The
          two were content for a time, but Susano-o, the Storm Ka-
          mi, became restless. In a fit of rage, he destroyed his sis-
          ter's rice fields, hurled a flayed pony at her loom, and
          killed one of her attendants. Amaterasu, who was in fury
          and grief, hid inside the Ama-no-Iwato (heavenly rock
          cave), thus effectively hiding the sun for a long period of
          time.
