Notes

That's right bois and grils!

I return to educate you uncultured savages through the medium of monster girls.

Today we will be looking at Australian Aboriginal Mythology and we are starting off with perhaps one of the most important figures, at least for the tribes based in Kimberly and Arnhem Land.

The Rainbow Serpent is the creator of human beings and the world in general. It has life-giving powers that send fertility spirits to all the watercourses, such as billabongs, rivers, creeks and lagoons as it is in control of producing rainfall.

The Rainbow Serpent is the protector of the land, its people, and the source of all life. However, the Rainbow Serpent can also be a destructive force if it is not properly respected. In times of anger or rage it causes storms and floods to act as punishment against those who disobey the laws.

In times of the floods the Rainbow Serpent swallows and consumes people and regurgitates their bones, which turn into stone. They can also enter a man and give him the gift of magical powers, or leave ‘little rainbows’, their progeny, within his body which will make him ail and die.
