Chase: I'm looking for a goddess.
Site: Carmen?

Yes, she often has more than one set of arms.
No, she is not Kali. This may be slightly confusing as they're both aspects of nature, but the goddess I'm thinking about is distinctive from Kali.
All Hindu gods (male and female) are known by more than one name, so I won't count this as a question.

Are you thinking about Durga?
Chase
Director
Durga is correct.
Unlike Kali, who is completely wild, Durga is both wild and calm. She rides a lion or a tiger. Her name means inaccessible -- durg -- like a fortress, or in some texts, Durga means 'Beyond defeat'. She is both a warrior and a peace keeper, and works to restore balance.

"In Hindu arts, this tranquil attribute of Durga's face is traditionally derived from the belief that she is protective and violent not because of her hatred, egotism or getting pleasure in violence, but because she acts out of necessity, for the love of the good, for liberation of those who depend on her, and a mark of the beginning of soul's journey to creative freedom."

*Sighed of relief* Thank goodness it wasn't her otherwise I feel like I'm in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom!

Unless Carmen is Laverna (Roman deity of thieves) disguise as Minerva (Roman deity of Wisdom).So basically...you WERE thinking of Carmen.

Jon Eckart:
So... if you were drafting a cast (let's say voice, as if animated, and then, as if live action (preferred)... so do it as "cast/cast") for a potential Carmen movie (big movie... think Fellowship Of The Rings-level big... (assuming someone had a big enough story/script, and could find all the other people)... who would you want? -
Jon Eckart:
((The story I'm thinking of is this: Khisondhanna (adopted) - Google Drive
-
Jon Eckart:
I'm working on continuing it, but input would be good. Maybe if it could be finished, maybe it could be printed as a book, or maybe sold as a movie (only for a big amount, and the original author get's a big cut)... if anyone, after reading through that folder (it's a live folder, so updates on my end go live when I save. If you have something to add, stash it someplace and let me know... I'll try to work it in as the story stands.))
