Hello again. Today, I will inform you on my many great attributes. First, lets start with my major responsibilities in Ancient Chinease Lore. I am responsible for creating the universe and everything known to man. This the most important role that any god could play in the myths. The mineral Jade is the symbol for immortality and celebration, so it is also associated with me. As well as this, I am also associated with the rhinocerous totem. Although the culture of which I am most present is Chinese, it is said that my origin came from India. My characteristics are caring, patient, and strong. I did hold up the sky for 18,000 years afterall. I am the first of the gods and have no known enemies or friends for that matter. My distinguishing signs and symbols are the yin and yang and the axe with which I created heaven and earth.

Pangu
I am the mighty god, Pangu. Although I am also known as 盘古 (Pángǔ)in simplified Chinese and 盤古 (P'an-ku) in the traditional dialect. I am often depicted as a shaggy giant with long, black hair, a bear, and horns on top of my head. I am the son of Yin and Yang and was born from an egg when the universe was filled with chaos. I once held up the sky for 18,000 years until I morphed into the heavens and the earth. Now my breath is the wind, my voice the thunder, and my eyes the sun and moon. I became the equivalent of the Chinese God so I have no weaknesses.
