Tossup
One of these beings has a dream in which a man rises into the heavens while another of these beings rides a donkey and falls into a pile of dung. Karna uses the Vasavi Shakti against a figure whose mother was one of these beings; that figure grows in size as he dies and crushes an entire unit of the Kaurava army. In a duel, one of these beings becomes invisible and uses a trap of a million snakes against his opponent. One of these beings defeats the vulture king Jatayu (“juh-TAH-yoo”) and clips his wings. In an epic, an army of monkeys and bears hurl stones to build a bridge to these beings’ domain. One of these beings transforms into a golden deer so that their king can abduct Rama’s wife Sita. For 10 points, name these demon-like beings who reside in Lanka and are led by Ravana. ■END■
