Different cultures and traditions across Asia have their own variations of the Chiwoo legend. One popular version claims he descended from the flame and has a head made of bronze. He is described as having four eyes and six arms, each of which holds a dangerous weapon. However, other iterations imagine Chiwoo as a more traditional military hero who gained a reputation for fighting in epic battles.
