Polydorus is a strange, savage god whose few worshippers tend to be barbarians and raiders from less civilized lands or hermits who seek enlightenment by avoiding contact with other humans. Polydorus teaches that humanity, and particularly civilization, was a blight put upon the world by the Ptharian gods whose only purpose is to despoil nature and rape the wilderness of its beauty. His most dire enemy, not surprisingly, is Vitulus and it is said that he rewards anyone who is able to fully destroy an entire city. Of all the gods, only Selene, Goddess of Beauty, is able to calm his rage and several times she had seduced him into helping the Ptharian gods fight against the forces of darkness.
Polydorus is depicted as a huge, savage wolf named Fenrir in the Danic Tradition, destined to kill Wotan, King of the Gods, in the final days of the world.
