(alternate spelling: Gurphat - guhr-FAHT)

Gorphat is the Goddess of Affliction, and is displayed as a gaunt, thin woman, and is typically portrayed in myth as being very lazy and slothful - a trait often exploited by her sisters to their advantage. While her realm is primarily disease, she is also often associated with famine and pestilence as well.

Sacrifices are made to her in hopes of staving off disease, or in the hopes of bringing it to the households of enemies. Due to the habit of her priestesses of conducting Purges in the Undercity, she is also associated with the Sphere of Fire (Fire, Sphere of) in some myths.

Gorphat is also the name of a mountain outside of Babel, where a shrine to the goddess of the same name is located. Some of the priestesses practice magic of a sub-set of the Sphere of Life (Life, Sphere of), focusing on the aspect of Disease.

The rune that represents Gorphat in Babelite script is known as "The Wound", and it also frequently used as a symbol for Life Magic focusing on the aspect of Disease.
