Overview:
Few know about the origin of Stianiku, he, himself, tends not to give out information easily and those that know refuse to talk. It is generally agreed upon by historians and theologists that his distant past is closely linked with the goddess Kedanna. As for the how they are linked and why, none can agree. Explanations range widely, from theologist Dr. R. Hambleton's well received theory of empyrean fragmentation in his dissertation "On Divine Relations" to the more crackpot and conspiratorial "Dude, I'm telling you he's just made up by the government to take away our hard earned copper; read about it in my new book." None can argue about his entrance and first appearance into mortal affairs, as history has shown time again how he has influenced worldly events, tipping the scale towards imbalance and chaos. Deeply intrigued by strategic planning and devious machinations, it is impossible to determine where his influence begins and ends or what drives his motivations. In recent years, he seems to have taken a more amicable approach towards mortals, granting favors that seem oddly beneficial without personal gain. Whether this is a permanent change of heart or calculated moves to bring something more sinister into fruition, none can say. Most would agree though, that it would be foolish to underestimate him, despite his having a more benevolent demeanor.

Form:
As what one would expect from a god, Stianiku manifests in a form that exhibits the peak of masculinity; in this case, a massive fukai with well-defined and handsome musculature. He has long silvery-white hair that tends to be kept loose and flowing and his green eyes shine brightly with the glow of divinity. His voice is a low baritone rich and deep, with a slight rumble.

Favored Color:
Silver and Red

Favored Weapon:
Paper Fan, for slappin' some sense upside yo fool head

Symbol:
Several symbols are attributed to Stianiku, though he tends not to take credit for either.
The first is a heart with purple flames around it being impaled by another stylized heart.
The other is a heart with silver flames behind it, being crushed from behind by a hand.

Religion and Faith:
None that are known. Those that worship him tend to do so in their own, without any significant form organization amongst themselves. Please note that the views expressed by purported follower(s), individual(s) and organization(s) are not necessarily the views of Stianiku, his associates, friends, family members, or sponsors. Stianiku and the Thornbrush estate maintain that no responsibility will be taken or liability maintained for any action(s), inaction(s) or suggestion(s) implied by said individual(s)/organization(s) or as a result the comments of said individual(s)/organizations.

Tenets:
1. Stay in school.
2. Drink your milk.
3. Eat your vegetables.
4. Brush your teeth.

Alleged Beliefs:
The strong and fit should rule. Lie/cheat/steal if you want, but if you get caught, it�s your own fault. Ends justify the means. Slavery is bad. Not the sex kind, where there are naughty spankings, that's okay. It�s the other slavery; the kind where they beat you and make you perform hard labor until you DIE. That's the bad one. The other one is pretty much okay if that's your thing and it's not really anyone's business even if it gets creepy weird at times. Also, "Stay classy, not trashy" (He actually said that while wearing expensive sunglasses in the dark. Take that as you will. -ed.)

Relations with the Pantheon:
An outsider who rarely has anything to do with the current pantheon. Does not consider himself a member of their group, nor does he want to be. Doesn't care much for their opinions and will use them as pawns to further his goals.

Relations with the world and mortals:
Dislikes dealing with most mortals (except the ladies) and has no respect for most of them (sorry ladies, even you. especially you. Don't take it personally, babe. Here's some silver to buy your ticket back home. Now kindly get out of my house.) Doesn't care much for their opinions and will use them as pawns to further his goals.
