CΓΊ Chulainn

64
CΓΊ Chulainn was the child of the sun god of Irish mythology. He was a demigod, the offspring of a mortal woman, Deichtine, the younger sister of King Conchobar mac Nessa, and the deity, Lugh, the god who governed over the sun and a member of the Tuatha DΓ© Danann, the gods of Irish mythology. Deichtine, the daughter of a druid, Conchobar's father, and Maga, the widow of Ross the Red, disappeared in the Land of the Young without marrying anyone. There, she bore SΓ©tanta, CΓΊ Chulainn original name. Receiving great divinity from his father, who possessed every skill such as knowledge, techniques, and magic, he exhibited superior talent from birth and boasted supernatural ability that separated him from ordinary people from a young age. The land was split into five countries, and he was sent with his uncle, Fergus mac RΓ³ich, to King Conchobar's army under the Northern kingdom of Ulster. He was to have a life that would follow the destiny to "one day become a shield of Ulster." He took up the name CΓΊ Chulainn after accidentally killing the guard dog protecting the house of master blacksmith Culann. When CΓΊ was sixteen, he fell in love with a princess named Emer, but she didn't feel the same about him. Despite his superior abilities, CΓΊ wasn't a famous warrior and would set out to seek fame. CΓΊ would then seek out ScΓ‘thach, a powerful warrior queen who trained many warriors. ScΓ‘thach would then train CΓΊ how to fight with a spear and how to use runes as a supportive method in a fight. During his training ScΓ‘thach sister would invade and would eventually defeat her. CΓΉ took a liking to ScΓ‘thach sister and even asked her to have his child. Before leaving, ScΓ‘thach would gift CΓΉ her spear GΓ‘e Bolg. Years later, CΓΊ would go to war against Queen Medb, although he fought his best, CΓΉ would be mortality wounded. Rather than falling, CΓΊ would chain himself to a bolder and die while standing and laughing at Medb army.
