Goros is the common name for one of the Elder Powers. He is the personification of space, distance, gravity, and the laws of the physical world. He is aligned with Neutrality.
Goros is sometimes referred to as "Goros the Gatekeeper". He is never depicted in human form - nearly all stories involving Goros describe him as an albino raven. He is often the patron of Elementalists, enchanters, and alchemists. Goros was the ascendant power in the last war.
