Trikaya – (Patih) – Ramayana

Apart from being powerful, Trikaya and his twin-brother Trimuka were also experts in poison, therefore Indrajit believed that his two twin brothers could overcome every situation.

When the Alengka war broke out, the Alengka country was attacked by the monkey army of Prabu Rama under the leadership of Prabu Sugriwa, the monkey king from Gowa Kiskenda, in an effort to free Dewi Sinta from the captivity of Prabu Dasamuka, Trikaya and Trimuka appeared as Alengka war commanders. Their actions were very fierce, frightening and unmatched by opponents. Their hands spread poison through slaps and blows, making every wanara and soldier who was struck, die with their bodies burned or melted spreading a foul odor. From the foot of Mount Suwela, Wibisana watched the approach of the two fierce twin brothers, immediately called Anoman, Anggoda and Anila to overcome the situation.

Wibisana: “Anoman, Anggada and Anila... it seems that Rahwana's brother has started ordering his children to become soldiers. I know my nephews as powerful people with their own strengths.”
Anggada: “True, these two twin demons really confuse us. Their hands contain poison, it is difficult to fight at close range. Strangely enough, if from a distance one of them is killed with an arrow or javelin... the other one immediately jumps over his brother... the dead one will come back to life... haduuuh really troublesome.”
Wibisana: “Anoman...their souls are linked, therefore death can only be perfect if they are killed together.”

Because of Anoman's ability to fly, and his calculated attack with kicks hitting the faces and shoulders of the two twin brothers, they finally went berserk because of the pain, Trikaya and Trimuka chased Anoman with passion. This anger made the two twin brothers off guard, finally Anoman was able to kill the two twin ogres.
Trikaya and Trimuka's heads were pitted against each other until they broke. Trikaya and Trimuka died simultaneously.
