'''Gilgeam the Horse-Eater''' also known as '''Gilgeam the Man-Shaped''', '''Gilgeam the Hero''', and '''First King''', is a mythical figure, demigod and cultural hero of the ancient civilizations of [[Rusana]]. Gilgeam is said to have been created by the pantheon to guard their creation, the world and the creatures within. In turn Gilgeam asked for boons from the gods to better carry out his mission, the boons of Sapience, Strength and a heart. As the guardian of creation Gilgeam carried out many dangerous tasks and hunted different fell beasts. Eventually Gilgeam turns against the gods and is cursed to become a mortal man of flesh and blood. In ancient [[Nasrad|Nasrid]] mythology, Gilgeam is reputed to be the first man, creator of the first woman and the progenitor of the entire species and later its first king. In modern [[Rusana]], Gilgeam remains a cultural icon and revered figure in local folklore. In islamic traditions of both Sunni and Shia Muslims he is called Gilmesh and is considered to be an angel who helped mankind survive through an era of pain and bleakness until the coming of the Prophet Muhammad.
