LORE: Batsy is the universal being of creativity and art. It usually takes the form of a bat, and wherever it goes, it brings with it inspiration. It has been misinterpreted in many cultures as a god of art. For example in Greek mythology, Batsy was seen as Athena, the goddess of craft, and her Roman counterpart, Minerva, the same. In Egyptian mythology, Batsy was seen as Ptah, the god of art and creation, particularly sculpting. When Batsy finds out about a new group of people, it swoops down from the sky to spread its power of art. When Batsy is not giving people its power, it slumbers in Rainbow Mountain, a mountain in Peru. It is said that Batsy first spread its power there, which is why it has so many magnificent colors. Scientists had believed it was sedimentary buildup of minerals, but that isn't true.
