Karttikeya has 6 heads and 12 arms (with
swords in 10 of them). Each of his
swords strikes for 2-12 points of damage.
This demigod was created to
fight devils
wherever they are found, and his clerics have a 2% chance
successfully requesting aid from him in
battles against devils and their allies (e.g. rakshasas).
<note that rakshasas are noted as devils
in the index to the MM>
Karttikeya rides a giant
peacock into battle, and this bird is his symbol to
his worshipers and enemies alike.

This huge bird is
said to have feathers made of metal, while its beak is said
to strike with the swiftness of lightning
at the god's enemies. The creature
attacks as a 16+ HD monster, striking
with its beak for 3-36 points of
damage,
and while it does not speak, it obeys the commands of the god
perfectly and can act independant of its
master.
