Khandoba

Also known as Martanda Bhairava and Malhari, is one of the avatars of Lord Shiva, who came to earth to destroy 2 demon brothers, Malla & Mani.
Mani was the younger brother of Malla. Both the brothers received the boon of invincibility from Lord Brahma and started to create chaos on earth. When they started to torment the sages, the 7 sages (also known as Saptarshi, namely Atri, Bharadvaja, Gautama, Jamadagni, Kashyapa, Vasishtha, & Vishwamitra) went to Lord Shiva for help. Thus, Lord Shiva came to earth in the form Khandoba, riding a bull (Nandi), leading the army of Gods.
The Gods came out victorious in the battle against the demon army and Mani was killed. It is said that, while dying, Mani offered a white horse to Khandoba as a show of repentance with exchange of a boon to be present in everyone of his shrines with the offering of a goat flesh as a sacrifice, ensuring his continued warship. But, Malla asked for a different boon, that is the destruction of the world and human-flesh, which brought a rage in Khandoba and made him to behead Malla.
