This figure ate fruits that were already bitten by Shabari. In some stories, this figure defeats his two sons in battle without knowing their identities. This figure did not slay a buffalo demon, but his victory over another demon is celebrated on a holiday by stuffing effigies with firecrackers and exploding them. In his absence, this figure is represented on his throne by a pair of (*) shoes. When this figure is wounded, he is healed by a mountain of herbs brought by a monkey. After this figure kills a nearly invincible demon with ten heads, he comes home to Ayodhya (“ah-YOD-yuh”) after 14 years in exile. The slayer of Ravana and husband of Sita is, for 10 points, what seventh avatar of Vishnu who is the namesake of a major Hindu epic? ■END■
