Well Agni for one. Brahma has four heads. Hanuman is sometimes depicted with six. It's fairly common in fact.Though I'm not sure of a diety with 2 heads in Hindu mythology.

Well it certainly happens today. Remember that little girl with the 6 legs a while ago? Most Hindus seemed to believe she was the reicarnation of Shiva.
Probably any royal couple blessed in such away would be regarded as semi-divine, and as medicene was rather better in Asia at the time the child could survive to be worshipped as a god king. You could get quite a good TL if the hindu monarchs submit to him and he unites India.
If the two-headed king who united India lived long enough in the past, people would wonder if he really did have two heads or if that was a legend that had somehow gotten glued on over the years.

I think we can agree it's fairly unlikely for such a deformed royal to be accepted in Catholic Europe. If we move over to say, the Hindu monarchies in India is there a better likelihood? I think there are even some instances of deformed people being seen as divine incarnations by hindus no?
