Balrog
From The Codex
Introduction
The name Balrog is used for multiple fictional characters across different works. One of the most well-known uses comes from J.R.R. Tolkien’s legendarium, where a Balrog is a powerful demonic being of shadow and flame. Another prominent usage is in the Street Fighter series, where Balrog refers to a boxer character known for his brute strength. Because the name has appeared in various unrelated franchises, it is associated with very different types of characters depending on the source material.
Characters
- Balrog from Street Fighter.
- Balrog from Cave Story.
