Title: Surtur, Guardian of Muspelheim
Theme: Icelandic Folklore & Norse Mythology
Surtur is a fire giant and the guardian of Muspelheim in Eddic Mythology. He is one of the greatest foes the Aesir fight at Ragnarok and leads the forces of Muspell against the might of Asgard. At Ragnarok he is said to fight Freyr in combat armed with the Sun of the Slain, the bright sword of Surtur, who emerges victorious though the fight is close and it is said it would have gone in Freyr's favor had he not given his sword away to Skirnir.
In Icelandic folklore Surtr is a very different figure. Instead of being an apocalyptic fire Giant opposed to the Aesir he is the God of the Volcano that formed Iceland and its surrounding Islands, effectively being the reason for the entire Icelandic way of life.
