Irish Ruler God
Also known as Bobd Derg, Bodb The Red, Bodhb Dearg, Bove Derg
Last of the Celtic Top Gods
A wise and wizardly son of Dagda, he was elected king of the Tuatha Dé Danann.
When the Gods thought it was time to call it a day and retire to luxury homes and palaces concealed in mounds and hills, he took over from his father, being his eldest son.
Midir and Lir were not happy about this and went off in a huff to settle in distant districts.
