Skargaroth was an ancient and powerful god who contributed to the extinction of the Naragi and the destruction of Guthix's homeworld. His dead form is seen as an empty and hollow shell of his body in Guthix's memory at the end of The World Wakes. Skargaroth was also the original owner of the elder sword. After Skargaroth unknowingly fell on and killed Aagi, Guthix's daughter, Guthix stabbed Skargaroth in his back with the elder sword, which killed him and transferred his power and part of knowledge to Guthix. Guthix then ascended into godhood.
During the late Naragi God Wars, Skargaroth battled the goddess Tuska and her armies and was impaled before falling on top of a house. Skargaroth's weight destroyed the house, and Guthix's daughter Aagi, who was hiding inside, was killed with it, which prompted Guthix to stab Skargaroth with his sword.
Skargaroth was attracted to the Naragi home world due to the presence of Tuska. Skargaroth was a being that enjoyed the thrill of the hunt. He wanted to take on ever more powerful opponents for sport so he followed Tuska through the dimensions to hunt her down. He sought only the next big hunt.[1] Skargaroth, being a solitary hunter, did not wish to be followed. Since he had no 'moral alignment' and did not require worship, he may not have an associated symbol or set of colours.
When investigating the corpse of Skargaroth it reads "The dead god looms over the landscape, terrifying even in death. His appearance suggests that he was not a benevolent god, though even if he were it seems that none of the gods who visited this world cared much for the mortals living upon it."
The sword Guthix slew Skargaroth with, currently broken.
Trivia
- Skargaroth appears to be similar in size to Guthix even though he is a tier 4 god and Guthix is tier 2.
- Skargaroth is thought to be the second largest god only being surpassed by Tuska until her size is revealed according to research[source needed].
