Kali - Hindu - She is the goddess of death and destruction. She is one of the four major Hindu goddesses with the god Siva (Shiva); said to be his wife. Kali's appearance is horrific. She is most often depicted as blood-drenched, her protruding tongue also dripping with blood. In addition to wearing a necklace of human skulls and a belt of human hands, she holds the head of the decapitated demon. She is also seen wielding a bloody sword. In spite of her repulsive appearance, Kali is revered in many parts of India. She is known for destroying ignorance, helping those who strive for knowledge of God. According to Hindu mythology, the demon Raktabija could not be killed by the gods. Spilling a drop of this demon's blood on the ground created a new demon. Kali - Hindu - Is one of the System Lords in attendance at the Goa'uld Summit. Disguised as Lord Yu's Lo'tar, Daniel speaks of Kali and Bastet's having made a treaty with Sobek, only to move against him during the celebratory feast when Sobek let his guard down. Kali is among the majority who voted to allow Anubis back amongst the System Lords. (Summit, part 1, Last Stand, part 2)
