Chalchihuitlicue
Chalchihuitlicue is the Fourth Sun, Queen of Tlalocan, and wife of Tlaloc. She holds absolute dominion over rivers, oceans, and running water, in addition to protecting women in childbirth. Her vibrant nature endears her to those under her patronage and she freely shares her blessings with those under her care. Farms touched by Chalchihuitlicue never fear drought, and mothers in her care never lose a child during pregnancy. Chalchihuitlicue blesses married couples and employs unique midwives to baptize newborns in her name. Far from limiting herself to humanity, Chalchihuitlicue offers equal patronage to mortal and Scion alike. This includes building bridges of water between the World and the 13 Heavens for Scions who win her favor.
Chalchihuitlicue’s traditional appearance is that of a Mēxihcah noblewoman adorned with an elaborate headdress, a shawl festooned with tassels, and a green skirt. Like her husband, she frequents a rooftop--gardened penthouse in Mexico City when not governing affairs in Tlalocan.
Like their divine mother, incarnations of Chalchihuitlicue are dedicated guardians of humanity and often assume leadership roles in any situation. They are sailors, farmers, champions of sustainable farming, and stalwart guardians of those in need.
