NDRIANANAHARY
Malagasy Creator God
Also known as Andriananahary, Ndrian, Ndriananhary
Over-optimistic Mud Creator God
His name means ‘Life Comes From Me’ which is appropriate enough. He seems to be a regional aspect of Zanahary with his own version of creation.
Ndriananahary created the world from hot arid mud, but wasn’t sure how habitable this was, so he sent his son Ataokoloinona down for environmental checks.
Unfortunately his son vanished without trace, so Ndriananahary was forced to send mankind down anyway and hope for the best. “But please keep an eye out for my missing son,” he said.
Ever since then, humans who die are supposed to return to Heaven for new instructions. But they seem to prefer it down here and never return. Such stick-in-the-muds.
Meanwhile Ataokoloinona is still missing...
