The male side of Aztec dual creator God/ess Ometeotl.

He lived in Omeyacan, aka two place, the thirteenth Aztec heaven where he would dream up creative forms of artificial insemination and unleash them on the world willy-nilly. The temple cleaner Coatlicue was a favourite guinea pig, which caused her no end of problems.

He is also the lord of fire, putting in appearances as Huehueteotl and Xiuhtecuhtli, and had four children who were no slouches in the creativity department themselves. Quetzalcoatl, Tezcatlipoca, Xipe Totec and Huitzilopochtli were all chips off the old old block.
