Database: Surtr

Possibly the first of the fire giants. Definitely one of the oldest beings in all the Nine Realms. Almost primordial in his nature, Surtr is a warlord and the chief of Muspelheim, and if Norse myth is to be believed, he is one the harbingers of Ragnarök, and perhaps one of its architects.

Rarely leaving Muspelheim throughout his long life, Surtr leads the invading force that effortlessly conquered Svartalfheim. He is served by his wife, Sinmara, and his two children, half-siblings Glod and Eysa.

While many assume Surtr's aim is nothing more than conquest, his decision to kidnap Baldr suggests a more sinister plot may be in motion.
