Name Etymology:
The primordial night sky and its incarnate god in early Hindu myth. Indra split Dyaus the heavens and Prithvi the earth in two so that mortals may have a space to dwell between.
Attitude and Motive:
Dyaus is violent and crude, not due to malice, but due to the sheer overwhelming joy of being powerful.
Background:
Dyaus lived much of his life on a mountain he claimed as his territory, chasing off intruders and enjoying the spoils. As he evolved, he gained further territory, enjoyed a greater bounty of prey, and made ever more enemies. When Dyaus finally picked a fight with too many opponents at once, he found himself thrown down from his mountain into the valley below, sorely beaten. He dragged himself through the lowlands, trying to feed himself well enough to heal, when he crossed paths with Lou. Now, he continues his tyrannical reign as a battling Pokemon participating in the league circuit. What could be better, than free reign to display his power, with all the land's eager audiences as witness?
