–The Storm Runner |
Nakon (pronounced "nah-CONE") is the Mayan god of war and a member of the council in the Old World.[1]
History
Nakon was honored at the Pax (Planting Time/May), where the war-chief, named after him, was escorted to a temple. Feasts were had and people performed the Holkan-Okot, "Dance of the Warriors." The war god was often depicted with a black line on his face representing war-paint or his gaping wounds and presiding over the body of a sacrificed victim.[2][3]
Nakon is often associated with Ah-Puch. But they eventually fought each when the latter declared war.[4]

The Storm Runner
According to Brooks, Nakon has been hungry for blood and he's been itching for a fight but never had a good excuse until now. After Ah-Puch was released on the solar eclipse, he and the other gods really want another war, Jazz said they have been in an era of peace for too long.
Nakon, along with Hurakan, K’ukumatz, Alom and Ixkawkaw arrive in the Old World to kill Ah-Puch.

Personality
Nakon is very quick to anger, he face may even turn red. He loves a good fight, especially when it's against Ah-Puch. But he’s not the smartest, so he’ll fall for fake blood. Like the other Mayan gods, he loves sacrifices, mostly blood.[5]
Appearance
Nakon was a burly dude with a long beard and black circles inked around his eyes. He wore a leather jacket, tattered jeans, and motorcycle boots.
Abilities
- Prowess in Battle: As the Mayan god of war, he is probably a fierce warrior.
- Odikinesis: As the Mayan god of war, he can likely influence the feelings of war.
- Telumkinesis: As the Mayan god of war, he can likely control weapons.
Trivia
- His Greek/Roman counterparts are Ares/Mars, they even wear very similar clothes. Zane Obispo called this kind of cliché.[6]
- His Egyptian equivalent is Horus.
