with UMA by @SuzyChi
Nehebkau is the primordial snake god in ancient Egyptian mythology. Although originally considered an evil spirit, he later functions as a funerary god associated with the afterlife.
Nehebkau was ultimately considered a powerful, benevolent and protective deity. In late mythology, he is described as a companion of the sun god Ra and an attendant of the deceased King. As he is so closely associated with the sun god, his name was evoked in magical spells for protection.[nextcol][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/59569038][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/595691/59569038_350.png[/img][/url][/columns]

with UMS by @sazanami
Cadejo is a dual spirit from Central American folklore, one never goes without another: light and dark, white and black. Whatever a person sees, depends on a person themselves.
The white Cadejos are known to be benevolent and eat bell-like flowers that only grow on volcanoes. The white Cadejo protects people including vagabonds and travellers, and people with grudges from all evil foot steps, and bad choices which are sometimes caused by the evil black Cadejo. The black Cadejo is malevolent and lures people to make bad choices. Especially, it likes to attack drunkards on night roads.[nextcol][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/77547424][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/775475/77547424_350.png[/img][/url][/columns]
