As the title asks. I am away from my PHB and won't be back near it anytime soon. As a result, I am turning to those who have their book on hand for help. What are the suggested domains, if any, for Kossuth? Does he have any listed domains in the PHB or not? If so, what are they?  If anybody could help me with this I would be grateful!

Kossuth's an FR deity, right? Unfortunately, he doesn't appear on the list in the PHB (or any of the other lists, for that matter). Didn't he get killed during the Sundering or something?

Light will be the most fitting, it involves many spells with fire and light and the like.

Sirrion, god of fire in Dragonlance, was given the nature domain which does have a couple of abilities that can utilise fire (resistance and divine strike). Otherwise, as above, I think the light domain would be more appropriate for Kossuth.

Thanks for the suggestions everybody. I decided to go with the light domain in the long run since it fit best with all the fire spells, and thankfully my DM approved. So everything has worked out well. As to Kossuth's status as a deity, TECHNICALLY he is a primordial as appose to an actual god, which is essentually an elemental on steroids. However, all the primordals, Kossuth included, have power that rivals the actual deities and they  are able to grant divine magic and powers to their followers. Kossuth has divine magic-weilding clergy on the prime materal plane according to lore, and while his faith is strongest in Thay it is not solely limited to that nation from what I know. Kossuth also was not killed off to my knowladge, and all the wikis seem to echo this notion. However,  I kinda stopped following Forgotten Realms lore once 4e hit so it's possible I am incorrect on this provided the wikis have yet to update their lore pages for post 3.5e lore. However, even if I'm wrong and Kossuth was killed off offically somewhere, the point is moot since the setting for this game is not Forgotten Realms but a homebrew world; the DM didn't want  to make his own deities so he said anything from the Forgotten Realms is fair game, and he already said my Light Domain Kossuth cleric is legal.
