Mithra's Childhood
Innana, Goddess of the Halflings visited her sister Aquara, the Lifeweaver's new creation Aquatica. She was melancholy and decided to stay a while, the energy of this new world and seeing all its new life, because she was feeling lonely. So she formed a doll of clay, plants, and other parts of nature around her and then breathed life into her new creation.
She named her new creation Mithra, the young bull. Mithra was born into a natural corporeal form, but he still had the blood of gods in his veins. He looked like a small bull with wings, then gave him many abilities, but made him work for them including shapeshifting (human with horns and wings, minotaur, and anything in between). He learned of most of his abilities during play, especially when he was bored.
After a while, he asked his mother why they looked different from her, she explained the difference between a man and a woman. She encouraged him to change his form to a biped. He had a bit of trouble with his feet and hands and couldn't shift without horns. So she suggested to keep them.
Later, he said that he was bored and lonely. So, he asked where his littermates were and that he wanted playmates. Innana after some thought created some other bulls of his age of varying colors. This helped for a while, but then he started getting antsy, destructive, and emotional. He grew quickly, and as he reached adolescence, he was head and shoulders over the other cows. She knew what was needed then, so she created some females. She named one of them Buttercup, this cow took his interest, and he started mooning over her. He let the other bull know she was his.
Eventually, nature took its course, and twin bulls were born. They took after their father especially his size, although only one of them gained his shapeshifting and wings. Innana named them Auroch, after her tribe of the Auroch'n, of the race Aeonian.
