Ashura

satsuki-chan:
but kujaku said 'ashura' (i dont know which) defied the heavens/path of the stars and was born genderless.

Ruby Chan:
Yes! He was definitely genderless in RG Veda, but his companions chose to address him as it.

Has anyone heard any rumours about the next appearence of an Ashura character in TRC?

And an idea here....maybe Ashura was the good guy, and it was Fai who was the bad guy? LOL

That would be interesting! I have a feeling there will be several more shades of grey.

CLAMP sure has a thing for those gender-ambiguous characters, don't they? Such as the angels and demons in Wish.

Ah, jeez, I must have missed that!
Gomen ne!

Hira:
I think you guys kinda have it all mixed up.

The father is called Asura-ou, but the child was only Asura because by the time he wakes up from the illusory forest, the entire Asura has already been massacred.
Asura-ou foresaw that his son will become the god of destruction and hopes that he can defy fate and allows his son to be born without going to that path. 
However, in defying fate, Asura-ou brought about the end of his people as his son is cursed to be born genderless so there will be no more Asura after that.
The one in Fai's world is the father and the one in Shurano is the son.
CLAMP let Asura be Asura-ou's son, even though Asura is genderless (he's supposed to be a boy)... Ten-ou even called the genderless Asura "Onii-chan" when Heaven and Earth finally crumbled.
