Its howls have been deaf for centuries, its songs and music have been nothing more than just empty echoes, desperate to be heard once more.
In Mictlan you will be able to hear the nocturnal howls of Huehuecoyotl, the god of the arts, music and dance. (We showed you the concept art of this character in this post!)
Its name is derived from Nahuatl and means "Old Coyote", as it is represented as a virile man with the face of a coyote. A warrior and sower of discord among men, Huehuecoyotl was also described as a malsin (that is, a gossiper).
Huehuecoyotl is considered a god of good luck, based on the fact that he is the one who represents the limit between good and evil. He balances the old and the new, the mundane and the spiritual, the youth and the old, the male and the female, since he has the ability to change gender. It is also characterized by lust and carnal desire, giving way to the erotic dimension of the ancient Mexicas.

We will present it to our community at the launch of our Kickstarter campaign.
But in order to launch the campaign, we need at least 20k people to register to the page. It literally takes a minute to do so, but it would mean the world to us.
Mictlan community, help us out!
