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.
