Perun

I came across this story in Slavic Mythology, about the most famous and powerful figure in the Slavic pantheon, Perun. This story covers Perun’s life, the god of weather, who wields an axe that comes to him whenever he desires, and has a bow that shoots arrows of fire and lightening. I love the idea and myth of this story and character, and will combine it to that of my huntsman. Due to his extreme likeness to the very famous character Thor, it will be a priority to keep my designs away from him, and his story.
