Zarongel is a barghest demigod that is numbered among the four Goblin Hero-Gods that are believed to have created the goblin race. He appears to be the most wolf-like of the four, but has hair composed of magical fire. Lamashtu is said to have freed Zarongel and the other three barghests from captivity by Asmodeus. Zarongel is commonly worshiped by goblins. Some tribes hold him in greater reverence than the other hero-gods or even Lamashtu. He is believed to be the origin of the goblins use of goblin dogs as pets and mounts.
