Tezcatlipoca (Aztec Mythology)
Creature Type: Divine/Beast
Domain: Earth/Darkness
Temperament: Dangerous
This Creature resembles the Aztec God Tezcatlipoca the Smoking Mirror.
Tezcatlipoca is the God of: Darkness, Night, Earth, Obsidian, Discord, Deception, Sorcery, Temptation, War, Strife, Slavery, Judgement, etc...He was instrumental in the creation of the first world. Before there was a land, there was just a primordial ocean that was the domain of a enormous Crocodile monster called Cipactli who always hungered and would consume anything the gods tried to create. Tezcatlipoca got the idea to lure her to the surface and ambush her but in the process he lost one of his legs. It would later be replaced with an Obsidian mirror that bellows smoke but some say one of Cipactli's bites never heals or stops hurting.
He then took up the mantle as the First Sun, although either due to his missing leg or being a god of Darkness could only manage half of a sun. It still worked well enough, but Tezcatlipoca had a problem, which was he could not go 10 seconds without messing with somebody and had a rivalry with his brother Quetzalcoatl. He kept on antagonizing his bother till Quetzalcoatl finally decided he had enough and smacked Tezcatlipoca out of the sky with a stone club! From there Tezcatlipoca decided if he couldn't be happy he would make it everyone's problem and destroyed the first world by making it rain Giant Jaguars from the sky!
Tezcatlipoca would then proceeded to be the cause of every major cataclysmic problem in Aztec Mythology.
He turned the people of the second world into Monkeys and destroyed the earth with a Hurricane
He stole the Rain God's wife and angered him to the point he caused it to rain fire and destroyed the third world
He bullied the Water Goddess and caused her to flood the world with tears of Blood for 52 years and destroyed the fourth world
And he has yet to destroy the Fifth World (Our World) which is said to collapse in a massive earthquake. Fun fact: In Aztec Mythology the Planet is the bound up Crocodile monster Cipactli who still hungers and her struggling is said to be the cause of Earthquakes. So if Tezcatlipoca wants to really mess things up for everyone he could undo the first good act he did for creation and free Cipactli, then watch all of creation be consumed by an Eldritch Crocodile.
