Ever heard of Chiwen? This mythical beast crowns the rooftops of ancient Chinese buildings. Inspired by a ferocious bird or a dragon that incorporates features of fish, it symbolizes power and is believed to ward off evil. Legend has it that it can summon storms and swallow fire, but its real superpower is weatherproofing roofs and protecting against lightning.
