Kyger Litor

Mother of trolls

  • Darkness pantheon
  • Troll Pantheon

Kyger Litor is the ancestress of all the troll races of the world and is almost universally worshiped by them. When the sun was slain she invaded the surface world with her minions, conquered the land, and bore the brunt of the fighting against chaos. The cult is simple and primitive, often savage or brutal in the eyes of humans, but is satisfying to the equally primal trolls.
