Feng Po Po

Feng Po Po, or Feng Popo is the goddess of the wind in Chinese mythology.[1] She is referred to as "Madame Wind", and is usually depicted as a crone. Feng Po Po can be seen riding through clouds on the back of a tiger.[2]

Feng Po Po is usually portrayed as replacing Feng Bo, the male form of Fei Lian. It is unclear whether she replaces Fei Lian, or becomes his new human form.
