Perun of wood with a head of silver and a mustache of gold, and Khors, Dazbog, Stribog, Simargl, and Mokosh"" (PVL s.a. 980). The consistent co-listing of Stribog and Dazbog in both the Chronicle and (in paraphrase) in the Igor Tale suggests they function as complementary aspects of Slavic sky-force theology: Dazbog governs solar prosperity and divine bestowal of gifts (his name likely means ""giving god""), while Stribog governs the wind domain (the Igor Tale's ""grandsons of Stribog"" phrase implies he is ancestral to the winds). Some scholars propose a semantic pairing of Dazbog/Stribog as two halves of the sky divine complex — solar wealth-giving vs. aerial wind-force. Confidence medium: the pairing is well-attested, but the exact theological relationship between the two deities is disputed; the alignment here is based on the consistent literary co-presence and complementary domain logic.

As Perun was the undisputed head of this pantheon (his idol had a silver head and gold mustache, superior to the others), Simargl functioned as a member of Perun's divine assembly — a guardian/protective sacred figure within the thundergod's sovereignty sphere. The alignment is primarily one of divine assembly membership rather than shared attributes; Simargl's own domains (guardian of plants and seeds per some reconstructions; winged dog-guardian per iconography) are distinct from Perun's thunder/war domain. Confidence low: the alignment is inferred from co-listing in the 980 CE pantheon, not from explicit ancient equation or shared attributes.

The Igor Tale distinguishes them in the poetic passage ""Vseslav spanned the path of great Khors"" (referring to the prince's night journey faster than the sun's circuit) and the separate ""the sons of Dazbog"" phrase applied to the Rus' people — Khors as the disc traversing the sky, Dazbog as the divine father of the people.
