KAMI-KAZE
Shinto Wind God
Also known as Kamikaze, Kaze-No-Kami
A God of Divine Wind
A fearsome storm deity, he has a tendency to cause havoc with destructive typhoons.
He career appears to have started in earnest in 1281 when a massive hurricane dispersed the Chinese fleet which was poised to invade Japan. Ever since then, Kami-Kaze has been the go-to god for defeating the enemy.
His fame reached a new peak during World War Two when suicide bombing missions were named after him in hopes of swift victory. However, this time around, the wind was definitely blowing in the wrong direction.
