 ===Origin===
-Izanagi is a Shinto deity and creator god, born as the scion of creation after seven generations of divine spirits. Izanagi created the physical world alongside his wife Izanami, and sired many gods with her.

-When the fire god Hi-no-Kagutsuchi was born, his flames burned Izanami to death. Izanagi journeyed to Yomi, the world of the dead, to retrieve his wife. However, upon seeing Izanami in her dead, rotten state, she flew into a shame-driven rage, and expelled him from Yomi. Corrupted by the filth of Yomi, Izanami swore to kill one thousand people a day; Izanagi retorted by creating one thousand and five hundred people. After returning from Yomi, Izanagi cleansed the filth from his body. Given life by Izanagi's divinity, the filth was purified and came to life as the deities [[Amaterasu]] (born from Izanagi's left eye), [[Tsukuyomi]] (born form Izanagi's right eye), and [[Susano-o]] (born from Izanagi's nose). Izanagi separated the world among his new offspring: Amaterasu received the land, Tsukuyomi the night, and Susano-o the sea.
