#asur

"Dear Asur! You claim to be superior to Men, yet there is not a single instance of a dragon taking an Elvish spouse and producing dragon-blooded offspring. Meanwhile, in Grand Cathay, dozens of such hybrids have been born to humans.

The Mask of Kali

I love when Asurs in myths aren't the stereotypes we see in modern adaptations (which also lowkey give me racist/colorist vibes lmao)

LMFAO no but I like to imagine there are enough deities who'd somewhat act like the Asurs, like Varuni for sure because of obvious reasons.

Also personal headcanon, but I imagine the Devtas and Asurs to not be too much different in looks, like yeah there are differences ofcourse like maybe the teeth or eyes or something but at the end all of them looks pretty much normal.

Mitra is the epitome of that I mean XD he looks like Sura but acts like an Asura lol

IKRRRRRRR THE MYTHS ARE SO MUCH BETTER PORTRAYING THE ASURS LIKE

I know those modern day adaptations would cry if the ACTUALLY go through them properly.

There are so many Asurs who were like GOOD like actually good. And like it's not even that hard to potray 😭😭

Shachi is an Asur and she's one of the Matrikas, some of the most important Goddesses. And people are out there making all the Asurs villains 🤌🤌

The racist thing is so true omgggg they pretend as if the Asurs are some foreign people all evil and bad looking like WTF DO YOU ALL FORGET THE DEVTAS AND ASURAS ARE BROTHERS LEGIT BROTHERS.

It pisses me off so much ksjshshsbddv smh
