Chaac

The source does not supply a detailed birth or creation myth for Chaac. Within Maya cosmology Chaac functions as the principal weather-maker: a chief divine agent whose actions — striking clouds with a lightning axe — bring thunder and rain. His role is integrally tied to concerns about agricultural fertility and the environment, and the source situates him within a broader Mesoamerican typology of rain and storm deities by identifying correspondences with Tlaloc (Aztec) and Cocijo (Zapotec).

The provided source does not give a descriptive iconography or detailed physical appearance for Chaac. What the source does state is a functional image: Chaac is pictured as wielding a 'lightning axe' used to strike clouds, a motif that emphasizes his role as an active weather agent; beyond that instrument and his association with storm phenomena, no specific bodily description, attire, coloration, or animal attributes are supplied in the source.

Chaac's primary powers are control over rain, thunder, and lightning. The source describes a causal mechanism: with his lightning axe Chaac strikes the clouds, causing them to produce thunder and rain. Through these powers he directly influences precipitation and, by implication, agricultural fertility and environmental conditions. The source also notes that Chaac corresponds to other Mesoamerican rain deities (Tlaloc, Cocijo), indicating a shared repertoire of weather-related functions across neighboring traditions.
