In the classic ancient Chinese novel Investiture of the Gods, Lei Zhenzi is a character with an indigo face and cinnabar hair who grew a pair of wings capable of arousing winds and thunders after eating magical apricots. He was granted the title “Lord of Thunder” by Jiang Ziya. The mouth of Thunder God in this make-up was painted in the shape of a bird beak.
