Brajamusti - (Raden) - Mahabharata[edit | edit source]
Brajamusti is very powerful. Together with his sister, Brajadenta and his two younger brothers, Brajalamantan and Brajawikalpa, he rebelled to seize the throne of the Pringandani state from the power of Dewi Arimbi.
When the rebellion failed with the deaths of Brajalamatan and Brajawikalpa by Gatotkaca, Brajamusti and Brajadenta fled, taking refuge in their nephew Prabu Arimbaji, son of the late Prabu Arimba who had become king of the Guwasiluman country in the Tunggarana forest.
With the help of Bathari Durga, Brajamusti again had the courage to kill Gatotkaca with a third hand. Brajamusti transformed into a fake Gatotkaca and disturbed Dewi Banowati, the wife of Prabu Duryudana, king of the Astina country. However, his actions were exposed by Gatotkaca.
Finally, Brajamusti died in the battle against Gatotkaca, and his spirit became a spell/magic power that possessed/became one in Gatotkaca's right hand.
