Shiva the destroyer in Hinduism has 8 arms. In Greek myths, the Hekatoncheires had 100 arms apiece, and Typhon had 100 arms or heads in different accounts.

I can't remember the name, but I think it's Shiva. It's like a Hindu goddess, if I'm not mistaken. Look up temples and religious artwork from Thailand and Burma and that area and you should find lots of images of the deity you speak of.

there are a couple of indian Goddesses with many armed. Like Shiva, Kali the Goddess of death, Lakshimi and Saraswati.

Lakshimi, Tara, Kali, Shiva,Durga? Those are the only ones I can think of that might fit that description.
