Kossuth is a fire deity worshiped in Chult, specifically revered by the merchant prince Kwayothé in Port Nyanzaru.
Religious Significance
Kossuth (pronounced kaw-SOOTH) is a fire god whose worship influences the practices and aesthetics of his followers. In Kwayothé’s villa, oil lamps and braziers are kept perpetually lit in honor of the deity, creating a constant presence of flame throughout the residence.
Connection to Kwayothé
Kwayothé, one of Port Nyanzaru’s merchant princes, is a devoted priest of Kossuth. Her worship manifests in her personal practices—she particularly enjoys torture involving fire and hot coals, reflecting her deity’s elemental domain. This devotion to the fire god appears to inform both her religious practices and her darker tendencies.
The worship of Kossuth provides Kwayothé with divine power appropriate to a priest, and she wears a ring of fire resistance, likely as both practical protection given her fire-focused rituals and as a symbol of her connection to the flame deity.
