It's hard to look for a character online when you only know what it looks like.

Thank You all very much for your answers! Sorry about the central America confusion.

My mom went to a party where the host had decorated her apartment w/ Kokopelli everywhere and wanted to know the name but couldn't figure out how to research it online when you only know what it Looks Like.

I jumped on Yahoo Answers to show her how easily she could get an answer! Thank You! I wish I could give you all 10 points!

You are probably thinkin of Kokopelli - from the US southwest, and not Central America.

Kokopelli is a fertility deity, usually depicted as a humpbacked flute player (often with a huge phallus and antenna-like protrusions on his head), who has been venerated by many Native American cultures in the Southwestern United States. Like most fertility deities, Kokopelli presides over both childbirth and agriculture. He is also a trickster god and represents the spirit of music.

try Kokopelli, that is the Hopi word for the rain priest that I think you are talking about.
