The god of winds known as Stribog was displayed in Kiev, Ukraine, alongside the statues of Horoz, Perun, and Mokosh. Storms and their powerful winds were vital to the agricultural cultures of the Eastern Slavs. Perun was regarded as a fearsome god who could grant justice and strength, while Stribog was known for his ability to bring the winds that carried the rains during thunder.

Because of this connection, Stribog is regarded as a right-hand man to Perun. His powerful winds can cause destruction or friendly gales, and even though thunder rarely comes, his impact is felt whenever it does. Stribog was found in various Slavic mythology sources, and his cult may have existed in Poland. Although these sources do not provide details about the deity's functions, he is commonly regarded as a wind god who distributes wealth.

Like many of the other Slavic gods, Stribog appears as an elderly man. He wears long robes, typically white, and holds a great horn to call his grandchildren. He is also pictured among the clouds, sometimes blowing the winds from his mouth.
