Gurg

From Harry Potter Wiki

Gurg is the title given to the leader of a giant tribe. The Gurg has command over the tribe and is served and brought food by the others. In order to be safe in the giants territory, you needed to present a gift to the Gurg of the giants, as Rubeus Hagrid and Madame Maxime did in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

[edit] Known Gurgs

• Golgomath — Golgomath was a Giant with the Giant colony in Northern Europe. He favoured the Death Eaters when they came to the colony to persuade the Giants to rejoin Lord Voldemort's forces.
• Karkus — Karkus was the Gurg of the last remaining 80 giants on Earth. Karkus presided over the effective extinction of their species when his people began fighting and wiping each other out, and his people were forced to live (by wizards) in a dip beside a mountain lake between four extremely high mountains in Russia, leaving them no choice but to stick together for their own protection.
