Quetzalcoátl (Scion)

Quetzalcoátl, also known as Éhecatl, Gukumatz or Kukulkán is a god, and the leader of the Atzlánti pantheon.

Overview
Quetzalcoátl, the cleverest, most peaceful and least bloodthirsty of the Atzlánti, has been a priest and a king, a builder and a lawgiver, an engineer, an astronomer and a doctor—and that is his legendary persona. Pale, silver-haired and bearded, Quetzalcoátl is tall and athletic, garbed in the brilliant green and red feathers of his namesake bird. Requiring a blood sacrifice but once a year, the God of the feathered serpent pushes mortals to create beauty and art, to live joyfully in the present moment and to achieve their highest ambitions both individually and as societies. He specializes in creating golden ages.

In modern times, this means that he rarely sticks with one identity for very long. He might be a painter in the morning, an elderly engineer in the afternoon and a first-time lover in the evening. He enjoys dancing until dawn while a digital calculator rides in his hip pocket, so he can calculate the tensile strength of a new skyscraper’s steel beams on the job site the next morning. He is always beautifully dressed for the occasion (whatever it is). His Scions are similarly energetic, with a hundred projects all racing to completion simultaneously. They inspire others to feats of artisanship and have an easy time creating worldwide cultural phenomena, from new trends in fashion to revivals of old musical forms.

They are always on the edge of the next new and hip thing. They are also almost always exhausted, and their successes inspire bitter jealousies.
