== Mythology and Religion ==
* Surtr, the fire giant who is responsible for the end of the world in [[Norse Mythology]], is probably the [[Ur Example]]. He doesn't appear in any myths except the one that tells of Ragnarok, where he and his armies invade Asgard, he kills Freyr and engulfs the world in fire, and even that myth gives him little description or characterization. Still, while he may not appear, he is referred to in numerous other tales of both the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda. And he's hardly the only Jotunn lacking character depth.
** Ironically, he is given something of a motive in ''[[Thor: Ragnarok]]''. Simply put, as he himself tells Thor, he has to do so [[Because Destiny Says So]], whether he wants to or not.
