FUJIN
Shinto Wind God
Also known as Futen
Blustery Shinto Wind God
He is buffeted and under pressure. This ancient deity stands on mountain tops with his white beard swirling and his wind banner whipping every which way. A surprisingly stylish deity, he wears a fetching leopard skin costume and wind-filled shoulder bags. Presumably designer ones.
How he gets from one mountaintop to another is a mystery. Possibly a primitive type of hang-gliding over which he has little control. How he must long for calm windless days.
