Design: Hinetakurua - Takurua Ruru

Hinetakurua is known as the Winter maiden and is the wife of Tamanuiterā (the Sun) along with her sister Hineraumati. She is personified by the star Sirius, which is the brightest star in the night sky. Her realm is the ocean, her task is to produce and conserve fish with her father.

Together with Tamanuiterā, Hinetakurua has a number of children, and each of them is connected to the afflictions of winter including frost, snow, cold winds and the hard frozen earth.  All of these children are stars that are located near Hinetakurua.  When they are seen on the horizon before the rising of the sun, winter is upon the earth and the children come down from the heavens bringing the many faces of winter.

This design is based on the whetū (star) Takurua Ruru, she is one of the children of Hinetakurua and Tamanuiterā  - She personifies the winter that causes people to take shelter. She is feisty, fiery and fierce in nature.
