Kalidas (Hunter Goddess)

KALIDAS  GOD  OF

Pronunciation: 
kaa-lee-dass

How the Culture Perceives Her:  
    The culture around her has changed over the years. At one point, they believed Kalidas to be gender-less only to finally settle on Kalidas to be of male origin. With a gender settled upon they mounted statues of Kalidas that reflected very much the classical ideal of a Gladiator wearing nothing but a lion cloth and wearing the fur and head of a red stag. There are many other statues in Kalidas honor of a Red Stage or a Cheetah. There are plenty of temples of Kalidas, though mostly outside the city. The only one within the city is located within the Hunter Guild where a large humanoid statue stands proudly baring a spear.

How He Actually appears: 
    Sadly, her people have her image completely and utterly wrong. She is not a well built man who goes around wearing a loin cloth or the skin of a great stag. She is a woman of average height with pale blue skin with darker blue hair that has a hint of brown and purple highlights. Her built might not be muscular but she has the body of a fighter. Unlike her fellow Gods, she stays in her traditional grab that is a mixture of traditional belly dancing wear and tribal armor. Most would consider her choice of apparel to be barbaric. So sad she could careless and rather enjoys her headdress.  There are other times when she prefers not to appear to her fellowers in a humanoid form and in that case she takes the form of a pale blue cheetah.
