Girru was the Untheric god of fire. His manifestation on Toril was killed during the Orcgate Wars.[4] His symbol was an axe wrapped in flame.[1]

Description

Girru manifested as a human male. He can shapeshift at will and teleport himself into nearby flames. It was impossible to approach him without taking damage from his intense heat. He fought with a mace that had an unlimited number of poisoned barbs that broke off in the wounds it made. He also fought with an axe. Any weapon that touched his body would disintegrate, though after causing damage.[5]

History

Girru presumedly came to Toril with the other Untheric deities aboard the Galley of the Gods.[6] He was killed by one of the orcish gods in -1071 DR,[7] and his body was laid to rest in a God-Tomb in Unther.[8]
