Thyrgar (old)

Thyrgar is Lord of the Forge, and one of the four creators of The Mortal Realm. It was by his hand that the vast energies of the void were tamed and put to use, so that life could flourish. Together with Lys, he guarded the world from danger, forging weapons for the gods. His immortal Hrafnir were born from the sparks of Sol, his forge, to aid them in this cause. In his absence, all warmth would leave the world, and all things would wither and die.

Now, Thyrgar is imprisoned in the heavens. Though his rage still warms the world, he tires at night, and so Lys must give light during nighttime. In his absence, Lys alone guards the world, and so many outsiders have entered The Mortal Realm unbidden. Though some of them are benign, most either do not understand or do not care for mortal beings.

Although Thyrgar's rage brings him into conflict with the other gods, he still cares greatly for The Mortal Realm and the beings within. Seeing the Hrafnir be cast out from the heavens as wild things enter the world to wreak havoc causes him great pain.

Tenets and Taboos
Show passion, says Thyrgar, for all that which you love, be it people or craft. Drive your enemies before you and do not tolerate weakness, treachery or falsehood. Strive for perfection in all that you do, or don't do it at all. Destroy only so as to create, and know that all you create will be destroyed in turn. Take what is yours, and let your desires guide you. Despise asceticism, for your time is short and it ought be merry.
