Wayang Kulit (Plain): Yudistira

Material: Buffalo hide, buffalo horn
Style: Java

Background: Wayang Kulit performances are used for moral guidance. Yudistira is one character who is frequently invoked. He is the oldest of the 5 princely Pandawa brothers and is semi-divine. He is a model leader, never lying or showing anger. He rules his kingdom with perfect justice. He has no weapon, unlike the other heroes, but he does have the Kalimasada, which is a holy book containing the secrets of religion and the universe.

No showy ornaments, his aristocratic head gently inclined, he is the ideal Priest-King, but he does have a weakness for gambling. He loses his kingdom to his cousins in a game of dice.
