A sage of वेदिच् times who was a सूक्तद्रष्टा . He used some sounds too often in his talks.

नृमेधस् and परुच्छेप vied with each other in their मान्त्रिच् skill. One day नृमेधस् in great pride produced smoke from wet firewood without igniting it and then परुच्छेप produced fire without firewood. नृमेधस् admitted defeat. (Taittirīya Saṃhitā)
