Vrttrasura (Samskrit : वृत्रासुरः), is the son of Tvashtra Prajapati. According to Devi Bhagavatam (Skanda 6) त्वष्ट्रा॥ Tvasthra angered by Indra's killing of his son विश्वरूप || Vishwaroopa (also called Trisiras), initiates an आभिचारिकं यागं || aabhaicharikam yagam (a yagam performed to cause harm to an intended person) to procure a son to kill Indra. However, due to the mantra mispronunciation, the entire meaning was altered. Instead of "let there be a son who could kill indra" it meant "let there be a son who will be killed by Indra". Thus, was born Vrttrasura, who eventually met his death in the hands of Indra. Rig veda mantras dedicated to Indra's might and valor in killing Vrttra are plenty in number.
