Also known as: Tlatlauhca, Youlahuan, Yopi
Xipe Totec is the god of agriculture, vegetation, spring, smiths and seasons. The god is a benevolent deity with a fearsome aspect: to him have the skin flayed from their bones whole, and his priests mimic him by wearing the skins over their own, as if clothed in the sacrifice's very body. Xipe Totec flayed himself so that he could bring maize seeds to humanity and allow the earth to bring food. He was the god of rebirth and renewal of the seasons. The Flayed One does not have a skin of his own so his followers flay a carefully-chosen sacrifice to do so.
Xipe Totec refuses have a barrack dedicated to him. As a result, his children and his followers are blessed with his powers of fertility and are termed, "Flayers". Flayers have no official residence in Camp Aztlan but are citizens of Tollan.
