Gogmagog

Gogmagog's History
Named after the Biblical demons Gog and Magog, Gogmagog ruled over the giants who inhabited Albion (the old name for Britain) before human habitation. Gogmagog ruled through strength, and jealously defended his country against outsiders.

When a group of Trojan refugees came to Albion after their loss in the Trojan War, Gogmagog and his giants came to meet them. The other giants were soon repulsed, but Gogmagog remained, engaging the Trojan Corineus in a fearsome wrestling match. Eventually, Corienus overpowered Gogmagog and threw him from a cliff-top into the sea. The Trojans soon defeated all the other giants, and Gogmagog's downfall is still celebrated today.
