Ulupoka

In Polynesian mythology, Ulupoka is the god of evil and demons. Legend has it that Ulupoka was decapitated during a battle with other gods. His head fell to the earth but, due to his divine nature, he did not die. The gods kept his head but left his body. Nowadays his body wanders around causing death, illness, mischief and misfortune.

Story

When Milu, the Polynesian God of the Underworld, encountered Ulupoka's body (the first time he had seen Ulupoka since he had been beheaded), he promised Ulupoka that he would help Ulupoka reunite himself and his head if Milu would allow him to use Ulupoka's body to take control of the Hawaiian Islands in revenge against the goddess Pele, who had imprisoned him for centuries. Ulupoka accepted this offer and joined Milu's takeover of Hawaii, leading the forces of evil against the Hawaiian forces and people.

Weeks after Milu captured the Hawaiian Islands, he and his army, including Ulupoka, were heavily defeated by the military forces of the nations around the Pacific Ocean and Pele's army. As a result, Ulupoka became angry with Milu and leave him, instead traveling all over the Pacific Islands in search of his head once again, making the islanders sick with his body.

Ulupoka fought the other gods several times, usually resulting in him being pushed back into the ocean or making everyone around him sick so he could escape. He hates humans because they all have heads.

Today Ulupoka continues to search for his head and spreads evil and disease wherever he goes to find his body. He is against humans, their humanity and morality. He sees himself as a 'wounded god' who should not be underestimated. He is glad to spread any evil or use demons to attack others. Milu once again offers to help Ulupoka and Ulupoka, tired of searching his head, begins to think about meeting Milu once more. This time he will find Ulupoka's head before he invades more 'stupid islands'.

It is said that Ulupoka's head still seeks his body today, biting the necks and heads of sleeping people, bringing sickness and death in its wake. His body is known to travel 'at the speed of hurricane winds' across the Pacific region in search of his head.
