God of the distant forests, Oshosi is the divine hunter, and the most skilled archer of all of the Orisha. He lives alone in the forests of the world, not needing any others. When he hunts, he lets the bodies of the animals he has slain drain of blood, offering it as a sacrifice to the other Orisha, feeding the Gods through this act. He was tasked with keeping this act a secret, and even when his wife Oshun asked, he would not tell her.

Oshun once followed her husband into the forest to learn why all the animals he brought back to their home were entirely drained of their blood, and watched her husband preform the sacrifice, learning what he was doing. Oshosi spied her, and cried out to Olodumare to punish her, which he did, cursing Oshun and all other woman with menstruation.
