RADIGAST

West Slavic Wisdom God

Also known as Radegast, Radigost, Radogost

God of Sound Advice and Thought

He’s easily recognizable — he carries a two-headed axe, has a bull’s head on his chest and wears a flying swan on his head. We can only hope he’s doing it for a bet.

He may be a colleague of Sventovit or even Sventovit himself.
