Scathach, Celtic Goddess of the Dead
sometimes called Scathach the Shadowy One 
She Who Strikes Fear in The heart of Evil
patron of blacksmiths and warriors alike.
Scathach (skah-thahgh), the warrior-woman risen to divinity, is the Gaelic goddess of the dead,
Once mortal she was an well known Woman Warrior in life
she met her end violently held prisoner Raped Tortured and murdered
Her Soul Calling out For revenge her wish was granted as a Demi Goddess
Sent back to Avenge women and protector of women
Her job was to assist those slain in battle and the passage of the dead to Heaven.
she is similar to the Valkyrie of the Norse. She searches the battlefields for the souls of the slain,
It is also the duty of Scathach to destroy those who are Evil and do Harm to women and Children
She Traveled all over the world seeking to destroy Evil where ever it existed
Scathach was also a potent magician. She had the gift of prophecy
She also learned Battle Tactics from every Culture and learned all languages on Earth
She Travels Village to Village all over the land seeking to right Wrongs and protect the innoncent
teaching women to fight and to read write and not be weak or submissive to men
in the Form of a beautiful very well endowed woman it was bait for those who had Evil in thier heart
she is a fearsome expert in the arts of war. It is to her that Cu Chulainn, the greatest of Irish warriors, comes in his youth to learn his craft. This teaching took place in Alba. It was from Scathach that Cu Chulainn received the 'Gae Bolg', his formidable barbed spear (or sword, in some versions) whose thrust was invariably fatal
Celtic King Conchobar
in the king suggested that Cuchulainn should train with the great warrior woman Scathach on her island off the coast of Scotland. that such a skilful youth who won all Games he 
Cúchulainn then set off for the island of Scathach
- (the light of the hero) which caused his face to shine like the sun. Taking a great leap called the leap of the salmon, twisting and turning against the flow Cúchulainn landed in the middle of the tilting bridge and as it rose up vertically he slid down to the other side. First he crossed the Plain of Ill Luck, here the feet of men could stick fast and be pierced by razor sharp grass blades. Then he crossed the Perilous Glens filled with devouring beasts. Then he came to the Bridge of the Cliff, this bridge tilted upwards whenever anyone tried to cross, throwing all comers to their death. Cúchulainn attempted to cross this bridge three times and each time he failed. However finally his heroic fervour came upon him known as
At last he gained access to the stronghold of Scathach and threatened her with his sword until she agreed to teach him.
Scathach's daughter Uathach was very attracted to Cúchulainn and they became lovers while he lived at Scathach's stronghold.
In return for his tuition he had to carry out a task for Scathach. He was to defeat another great warrior woman Aoife in battle, which he did gaining his famous weapon the
this was a type of harpoon with retractable barbs, it was given by Scathach the warrior woman to Aoife who Cúchulainn conquered as a test while in the service of Scathach therefore it passed into his ownership when Aoife was defeated. It had thirty barbs and was made from the bones of a sea monster
With the Gae Bulga Cuchulaninn was unstoppable and invincable in combat
he was the Greatest Warrior the Celts Ever had
Cuchulaninn owed much of his great fame and skill to Scathach's teaching, and, indeed, most legendary references to Scathach occur in tales about Cu Chulainn. This is a shame, really, as the woman seems to have been a fascinating character and likely could have had some great adventurous myths herself. many Stories about Scathach existed, however, they have unfortunately been Destroyed when Christianity came to Scotland and
Ireland
the Movie and comic Red Sonya is based on the Goddess
she also appears in Videogame heavenly Sword
it is said
her battle cry can be heard by Women warrriors even today
She Rallys women in war Courage

a Daemon is the Child of a supernatural being like a God Goddess Angel Vampire etc born human but with powers that manesfest around puberty
Daemons are incredibly powerful and since they are not supernatural creatures like a vampire or demon using holy items cant stop them
when Daemons are born forces of good try to convert them to thier side because there is no way to stop them shy of another Daemon fighting one
i am a pagan lot of people think im weird when a bible thumper gets on my ass
im like hey you let a 2000 year old book written by a bunch of racist primatives who plagurised stories from my religion and you deny the existance of all gods except your own yet you believe in angels and demons too
my religion has existed since the DAWN of human Civilization over 40,000 years how old is yours 2000 years?
im a christian and think lyk that and my parents think im a gothic cuz i posted this pic on my wall
STEP 2: Remember that truth doesn't discriminate religiously. Keep your mind open, especially when you begin on the Pagan path. One cannot be a Pagan and a Christian, because Pagans don't believe in Hell or the Devil, or that Jesus was the son of God.
STEP 3: Begin your studies. This is probably the most important part. You will never stop studying if you decide that you are truly a Pagan
STEP 4: Decide which god/desses you will serve. Pick the one(s) that ring true with your soul. Decide why you are dedicating yourself to this god or Goddess and research them completely and extensively.
Paganism Rules
1. Harm none
2. respect others
3. Respect yourself
4. Honor the Goddess and Gods
thats it
if you want more information i will share it
At the core of Paganism, there are four beliefs that Pagans share.
1) The Divine has made Itself manifest through many Deities in different
places and at different times. No one Deity can express the totality of the
Divine. This is called polytheism -- the Gods are many. (Note: Strictly
speaking, this is more like monotheism than polytheism).
2) The Divine is present in Nature and in each one of us. This is called
pantheism -- the Divine is everywhere.
3) The Divine is represented as both female and male. The two major aspects
of the Divine are the Goddess and God, although the Divine is beyond
limitations of gender.
4) The Pagan Ethic (also called the Wiccan Rede) is followed: If it harm
none, do what you will. This means a Pagan cannot cause harm to anyone or
anything, including themselves.
The Pagan way is not the only "right" way. Because of this, Pagans do not
preach to others or try to convert people, since there is no need. Pagans
believe that there are many paths to the Divine. Pagans also believe that
there is more to be learned from meditation and contemplation than anything
we can learn from an external source. A Norse priestess called Sigrid the
Proud explained to the Christian missionaries who tried to convert her:
I must not depart from...

Proud explained to the Christian missionaries who tried to convert her:
I must not depart from the faith which I have held
and my ancestors before me;
on the other hand, I shall make no objection
to your believing in the God that pleases you best.
The various Pagan religions are religions of tolerance. However, that does
not mean Pagans will tolerate oppression, suppression, or other
human-conceived evils.
The purpose of Paganism is to remind us all that we are not alone -- that
we are important, integral parts of the universe. The Divine is within all
living things, including ourselves. Paganism celebrates the joy of life and
all living things. Paganism teaches we are each plants from a common root,
and that hurting others ultimately hurts ourselves.
Pagans are very concerned about the state of the planet, because the Divine
should be protected. Most Pagans are environmentalists, and recognize that
the very existence of the human race is a threat to the rest of the planet.
We must honor the life forms which have lived on our planet for millennia.
We are to tread lightly on the Earth, take what we need, leave what we do
not, and honor the Gods for providing for us by giving back to the Earth.
Many Pagans are also vegetarian, not only for spiritual reasons, but also
to protest large-scale factory farming and meat production that is harmful
to the planet and cruel to other species.
The newer religions of the past 2,000 years are based on what Pagans see as
a fundamental error -- that the Divine is male and only male. This is a
strange belief to Pagans. The Divine has manifested Itself over the ages as
both Goddess and God to help us understand the complexity of the Divine. If
we worship only one half of the Divine, understanding is lost. We say that
God is made in our image, and not in yours, that one sex is Divinely
ordained over the other for certain privileges. Paganism teaches that both
sexes are equally valuable and necessary, for life cannot exist without
male and female.
Pagans believe strongly in balance and harmony. No quality to excess is
good. We much learn to use qualities skillfully, but inevitably we fail at
times. Pagans accept that we are much less than perfect, and all of us will
get things wrong. To start again and make amends, Pagans must address the
imbalance and counter it -- they must give back in some way to counteract
something taken or abused. This may not happen immediately, or even not for
days or years later...but eventually, balance will prevail.
Most Pagans also believe in reincarnation -- our life on Earth is one of
many and the purpose of life is to learn and evolve. Reincarnation was an
idea taught by the Druids as well as the more well-known Eastern religions.
Not all Pagans believe in reincarnation, and some come to it later along
their paths. But it is important to remember that the doctrine of
reincarnation was widely accepted prior to Christianity.
Because Pagans believe the Divine is everywhere and in each of us, we can
be in union with the Divine in both this life and the next. Pagans do not
focus on what the neighbors do or don't have. Rather, Pagans celebrate and
enjoy life and the gift of consciousness, which is a major miracle in
itself. There is no need to flee Earth to find non-material bliss. We
should celebrate our Earthly incarnation, and enjoy life to the fullest.
