Belu are Burmese rakshasa from ancient Burmese legend. They are incredibly strong, intelligent, and know magic - some capable of shape shifting. There are two types of belu: pan-kike belu, and panswe belu.
Pan-kike belu have straight fangs and are malevolent man-eaters.
Panswe (flower biter) belu, on the other hand, are benevolent beings that feast on flowers and fruit, and are distinguished from pan-kike belu by curved or hooked fangs.
Nan Belu - palace ogre - (garuda bird) singular
Taw Belu - forest belu - Looks like a green ape ape with buck top teeth and curling upward tusks from the upper canines. The forest belu is renowned for eating raw meat and wearing a large plume on top of his headdress. In puppet shows he always stands on the right of the stage and always enters and exits from the right.
