Just as the title says.Who or what is Rodgort?He seems like some kind of Fire Demon to me.Seems kind of random that he is in a few Fire Magic names and im curious to know is he involved in any of the Lore of Tyria and/or Cantha?

(Does this go here?)

(yes it goes here)

Rodgort is Trogdor backwards, and that is all you need to know.

(really we have no information about what "Rodgort" is, so anything is speculation.)

Rodgort is just Trogdor Backwards...alittle joke thrown in by ArenaNet.

(Trogdor is a dragon from the Homestarrunner.com skits)

Don't need any lore in GW about him, its just alittle reference joke.

O_o, I answer this thread and find this being the recent thread in Druids.. oh well, they are cprrect, Rodgort is a referance to Trogdor the Burninator, the biggest fire ele of all time. One day I'll get a Troggy t-shirt.

Rodgort is also a fear fire mage who makes his home in Kryta. If you are lucky, you can catch him and his gang causing trouble while doing the of Galrath quest. As infamous as Vereta is to Necromancers for her advancement in Minion magics, so is Rodgort is inventing new ways of unleashing powerful fire spells.

Well, there is some lore I made up off the top of my head, but you can actually find him there.

Yeah, if you really pay attention half of everything in the game is a reference to something.

For examples all of your warrior shouts are quotes from shows, movies, or homestarrunner.
