Personal history
A gothi well-versed in the old ways, who served as a seer at the Temple at Uppsala before its destruction. He conversed with the gods through casting runes and oversaw the blots and other ceremonies.
When verda was released into Midgard, he quickly became attuned. He probed deep into his mind seeking power and ultimately was first in Midgard to practice runic sacrifice – a crafting method long used by the dwarves to create living weapons and animal companions for the gods, such as the sword Laevateinn, or Frey’s golden boar Gullinbursti.
He began with the sacrifice of small animals with TIWAZ to arm the temple priests. Aiming later to create allies to fight alongside the gods, he experimented with the sacrifice of humans and bulls using THURISAZ and URUZ. The things he created quickly proved uncontrollable and killed many.

Intelligent and ambitious, but arrogant and short-sighted.
