Juan the Cow God

The Cow God Juan is the god that brings food to mortals in the cold winters, offering his species but keeping a balance. He is normally in either a giant 4 block tall cow form or in the form of a tall human with cow features, but currently bound in mortal cow form.

Origin
''Long ago in man's history - before the industries and possibilities in the art of cooking spilled open, a mans main source of energy was through the milk of the humble cow. As Vranir looked upon her subjects on the plains of the Earth, She saw Her people required guidance through the troublesome and temporary late-year winters, or perhaps the mid-year droughts, and thus brought forth upon the world Juan - God of these humble creatures and King of those who doubt their plentifulness. Presented as but a humble creature himself - but much larger in stature - Juan would serve as the one who the farmers prayers were answered by in those aforementioned testing times. As the ages developed and man grew more advanced, their devotion grew only as strong as their mind and soul. Locals in the future area that would inhabit the Basileia of Credia claimed to report seeing a large - approximately four metre tall - cow figure within the dagger-like hills of the area referred to as 'Poobshire' (although this was met with large ridicule, suspicion and general mockery). However, there was in fact truth in these accusations, as the simple servant of Vranir resided deep within these hills, spending his time receiving and in most cases answering the prayers of the harvesters who worked no more than 3 miles in any direction from his hilltop home. Many moons after these sightings eventually dwindled into folklore, those who sought to destroy the creations of the Lord - who shall simply be referred to as 'The Spirits' in His honour - fooled and toyed with the mind of Juan, allowing him to trap himself within a mere mortal cow. Gone was the large, overwhelming stature of the God, and in turn was replaced by a mere smaller than average farm animal. Thankfully - due to his connection with Her - Tor (High Priest) was able to locate Juan before his eventual mortal demise and brought him in- nurturing him in care and love for his Lord...''
