Ⅰ

Zarongel is a barghest demigod who is one of the four goblin hero-gods believed to have created the goblin ancestry. Some goblin tribes hold him in greater reverence than the other hero-gods or even Lamashtu.

Appearance

He appears to be the most wolf-like of the four, and has hair composed of magical fire, a gift of the goddess Lamashtu for being the first of the four to pledge himself to her; the others still envy him for this. Hadregash in particular still wishes to steal the magical gift.

History

Lamashtu is said to have freed Zarongel and the other three barghests from Asmodeus' captivity. He is also believed to have taught goblins how to kill dogs and use goblin dogs as pets and mounts, which has garnered him the title "Bark Breaker".

Home

All goblin hero-gods reside in Basalfeyst in the Outer Rifts.
