A sentient weapon created by ancient Mesopotamian gods out of clay, gifted with the ability to change appearances in accordance with its circumstances. When it entered the realm of mortals, it met a divine harlot named Shamhat and eventually took her shape as its basic form. They were the greatest match and later only friend of Gilgamesh, the demigod King of Uruk, and went on many adventures with him until they were struck with divine punishment for killing Gugalanna, and Enkidu died.
