The Aztecs worshipped him as Quetzalcoatl, the Maya called him Kukulkan. He was born from a virgin in the first cycle of this world. The feathered Serpent was granted Authority over the winds and the west and he and his three brothers created all the other gods of mesoamerica and the first race of humans. Four cycles of creation and destruction followed and four suns were shining upon the world. Quetzalcoatl himself was the second sun. He always took pity on the humans and was the most merciful of the Aztlan, not demanding rivers of blood like his brethren but just small offerings once a year. All that changed in the cycle of the fifth sun when the spanish and portuguese arrived. They brought their new god, who did not allow the old ones to exist and the soldiers of christ brought ruin to his temples and converted or killed his worshippers. The feathered serpent was no god of war. He was a scholar and a priest, so he refused to join the rest of his pantheon in the fight against the invaders. Instead he tried to help his people by teaching them the old stories and wisdom. Now he lives among them, a shadow of his former self, his once colorful feathers slowly becoming monotone and grey.[/center][/hider]
