How would a scion of Huitzilopochotli (aka Hummingbird of the Left; and no, it's not a hard name to pronounce well), of the Aztec pantheon work?
Right now, I'm thinking of some sort of either south american ex-military character. Either a former terror squad operator trying to do right to wash away previous wrongs; or a pretty clean cut person that's learning to exalt his maimed father's thirst for blood, combat and war.
The Norse/Egyptian/Greek pantheons are something that I've honestly gotten tired of over the years in so many different games.
