Rakshasa

Connections

  • Isaiah resolved a crisis in Mumbai when he established at the last possible moment that Rakshasa’s invisibility does not extend to ultraviolet scopes

Context

A Rakshasa (sometimes called Asura, the feminine form of which is Asuri), is a shape-changing (often man-eating) demon in Hindu and Vedic texts and tradition. This creature has even influenced modern fantasy. The game Dungeons & Dragons has a type of fiend called a Rakshasa, a shape-changing creature usually depicted as an anthropomorphic tiger with their palms on the backs of their hands. A similar creature exists in the TV show, Supernatural. Yes, each of these versions of Rakshasas can become invisible as well.
