Beerus (Dragon Ball Z)

A god inspired by Egyptian mythology

Physically, Beerus looks like a purple cat, dressed in blue and with yellow eyes. His character is inspired by the Cornish rex, a breed of cat native to the United Kingdom that is distinguished by a soft and very short coat, of which Akira Toriyama (writer and illustrator of the Dragon Ball saga) had a descendant. Beerus is obviously also inspired by the Egyptian gods, probably Anubis or Set, who had (unlike Beerus) a jackal head, but like him a hybrid representation (half human and half animal), big ears, a long tail and an ousekh” necklace. Beerus is also reminiscent of the goddess Bastet, who was represented with many gold jewels and in her cat form completely. His figurine represents him ready to strike his worst blows with a snap of his fingers.
