Farghar

human hero Origin / Domain: Turan Allegiance: touran

Epic Lore & Biography

Farghar was a cunning and battle-tested Turanian warrior sent by Afrasiab to spy on the Iranian camp. Stealthily observing the Iranian host, Farghar witnessed Rostam’s grand green tent, his tiger-skin Babr-e Bayan, the formidable Rakhsh, and arrayed heroes like Tous, Goudarz, and Gev. Trembling at the sight, he reported Rostam's terrifying presence back to Afrasiab.
