Cichol

A leader of the Fomorians during the invasion of Ireland by the Partholanians.

The only source for Cichol comes from a single reference in the Lebor Gabála. At that time, the Fomorians were described as race of people with a horrible deformity. Each Fomorian warrior only had a single arm and a single leg. The Partholanians defeated Cichol and the Fomorians, driving them out of Ireland.
