Goddess of the home and fires, from the domestic hearth to volcanos.

She once ate roasted fish dusted with paprika, but as harmless and delicious as this sounds it's a big no-no on fasting day. Tonacatecuhtli wasn't best pleased and 'she who dwells in the house' soon became 'she who was turned into a dog'.

Chantico rules the Ehecatl Tracena, the thirteen days of instability and insecurity when a thunderbolt of chaos strikes the very heart of order and thieving is rife, which is quite suprising as she's very protective of her treasures and will guard them with the tenacity of a bulldog with a nut clamp!

The red serpant /poisonous cactus spike head-dress combo would be deterrant enough for most, but stories abound of terrible vengeance being wreaked against touchers of her prescious things.

She's the female counterpart of Xiuhtecuhtli. It must be a fire thing.
