Tirid is an Asakku working for Nergal.

Sikander Aziz series

City of the Plague God

He takes part in the attack on Ishtar's House. When Sikander Aziz surrenders and is taken to their base camp, he suggests Nergal infect Sik with maggots and spider eggs, something the others greatly support. Three weeks later he and others serving under Nergal go to Gilgamesh's Glass Ziggurat to get Gilgamesh and the others to surrender.

The Cursed Carnival and Other Calamities: New Stories About Mythic Heroes

The Loneliest Demon

It's revealed that Sik and Belet defeated the surviving demons from Nergal's forces who were all either killed by Belet or fled back to Kurnugi. Rabisu, the last of the demons, mentions that Tirid was one of her friends, although it later turns out that the other demons bullied her.

Fury of the Dragon Goddess

After encountering Belet Amari, Rabisu complains that she had killed Tirid who was her friend. However, Belet tells Rabisu that that's impossible as Rabisu doesn't have any friends. Rabisu tells Sik that Belet had chopped Tirid's head off, which Belet calls a very special moment for her, although maybe not so much for Tirid.

Appearance

Tirid resembles a human with the head and wings of a fly.
