Surtr is a major antagonist in Fate/Grand Order: Cosmos in the Lostbelt, serving as the overarching antagonist in its second chapter, Götterdämmerung: The Eternal Ice-Flame Century, which took place in an alternate version of Norse Mythology.
He possessed the body of Sigurd, the Saber-Class Servant of Ophelia Phamrsolone, the Norse Lostbelt's Crypter. He is based on the fire giant Surtr from Norse mythology.
He is voiced by Kenjiro Tsuda, who also voiced Sigurd in the same game. Outside Fate/Grand Order, Kenjiro is known for voicing Seto Kaiba from Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise.
Overview[]
In the timeline of the Norse Lostbelt, Surtr devoured the wolf Fenrir as an attempt to defy his fate during Ragnarok, gaining immense ice powers that thwarted all the gods and completely disrupted the apocalyptic events afterward. Instead of bringing the Twilight of the Gods as he was supposed to do in normal Norse mythology, he chose to bring about the Twilight of the World. He killed almost all the gods and the leading giants, bringing upon the near-destruction of the whole world until he was sealed inside a false Sun by Odin, who also died in the process.
However, the essence of Surtr possessed the body of Sigurd, the Servant of Ophelia, since the start of the Cosmos in the Lostbelt story arc, after he developed a secret romantic relationship with her. Surtr was reminded by her of his destructive capabilities and intended to burn the whole world in an effort to woo her.

Revealing True Self[]
Final Battle and Defeat[]
During the final battle against Chaldea, Napoleon managed to wound him with his Noble Phantasm, while sacrificing himself. Napoleon's sacrifice eventually made Ophelia regained her sanity and was rescued by the Protagonist and Mash.
After overcoming her fear towards Surtr, Ophelia was moved by Napoleon's sacrifice and agreed to help Mash and the Protagonist to defeat him. She risked herself by using her hidden Mystic Eye, severing the tie between her and Surtr in progress. Ophelia's actions weakened Surtr enough for the Protagonist and his allies to land attack upon him, destroying him once and for all, but at the costs of Sigurd and Brynhildr's lives. Before his death, Surtr showed his regret over not being able to understand humanity before disintegrating.

Trivia[]
- Although Surtr appeared briefly in the trailer of Götterdämmerung chapter, there's no hint that he has such a prominent role in said chapter, given to the fact that Ophelia and Scathach-Skadi are branded as main villains due to their status as a Crypter and a Lostbelt King, respectively.
- There are several foreshadowing moments that Sigurd is possessed by another powerful entity, like showing Lostbelt aspects while being a Heroic Spirit from Human History, as well as defying Ophelia's order to attack Mash at times during the battles, forcing Ophelia to weaken him with her Command Spell.
- Surtr is the first arc villain in Cosmos in the Lostbelt who is neither a Crypter nor a Lostbelt King. He eventually overshadowed both Ophelia and Scathach-Skadi as the greatest threat to the entire Lostbelt, forcing both of them to ally with Chaledean crew to fight him off.
- It was later revealed by Kirschtaria Wodime that Surtr was allowed to operate in the Norse Lostbelt despite the threat he posed as a backup plan in case Scáthach-Skadi sympathized or allied with Chaldea.
