The Goddess Ninsumunak
The Lady of Wild Bulls Ninsumunak
The goddess Ninsumunak, the lady of the wild bulls, the herds of the wood, defense of the home and the people, rage and revenge, the killer of predators. She takes the form of a giant seven-legged aurochs cows with a woman's naked torso where her head should be, wielding spears made of fallen leaves in her perpetually red-stained hands and wearing a bloody aurochs calf's skull as a helmet, with shreds of meat and skin still on it.

Divine Goals & Aspirations
To kill predators who attempt to kill her people -- or any predators in general, really, she's not picky.
Physical Description
Body Features
A massive seven-legged aurochs cow with the torso of a woman in place of her head. She has three front legs on her left, two on her right, and a normal-looking pair of hind legs. Her fur is dark, and extends up from her aurochs body to cover some of her human torso as well, especially along her back.
Identifying Characteristics
Her face -- if it exists -- is hidden behind the bloody skull of an aurochs calf. Her hands are dyed permanently red. She has lighter marks along her shoulders and spine which are carved into her fur. If these have any meaning, she's the only one who knows.
Specialized Equipment
She carries spears made out of fallen leaves, which can fall apart and reform as she pleases.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
They say that Ninsumunak was born from an ordinary aurochs cow who was hunted down by a pack of wild hounds. While the pack harried and taunted her, her calf was dragged out from under her and butchered, and though it was already too late to save it, in her rage, she grew a mouth that could curse them and hands that could tear out their eyes for what they'd done. With the pack's blood still on her hands, she picked up the leaves, fashioned a spear out of them, and went off to begin killing anything that would hunt her people.
Gender Identity
Uses she/her pronouns.
Morality & Philosophy
Ninsumunak is the power you see every time an elk kicks the wolf hunting it and shatters the wolf's ribs, every time a mouse turns and bites the paw of a cat hard enough to draw blood, every time a cow gores the lioness going for its calf. She is the goddess of preventative revenge, the fury and desperation of a prey animal maiming its predators without remorse. A goddess of rage, she's the closest thing that the mountains have to a deity of protection or family.
