Surtur
Description
Surtur, also seen as Surtr, is worshiped as the Giant god of the Fire Giants. Surtur looked like an immensely large Fire Giant with crackling flames in place of hair and eyebrows. Surtur, a son of Annam, was part of the second generation of Giant deities, born at about the same time as Skoraeus Stonebones and Thrym.
Realm
Surtur ruled Muspelheim. In the Great Wheel Cosmology it was located on the fiery second layer of the plane of Ysgard; the layer was also called Muspelheim, named for Surtur's realm. In addition, Sutur shared the realm of Jotunheim on the layer of Ysgard with Thrym, where the Lord of the Fire Giants resided in the ancient hall of Meerrauk.
Surtur's domain also contained portals to the City of Brass and to an Efreeti outpost called the Suhkteh Albarrana where Fire Giants often hired themselves as mercenaries to the genies of flame. The realm of Muspelheim could also be reached through certain volcanic regions on the first layer of the plane.
