Edda Hengist is a wandering lorekeeper of a hidden, ancient people tied to the old West Germanic myths. She carries oral traditions and rune-lore passed down through generations of migration, traveling beyond the veil to keep them from being lost. Her kind is elusive, not fully human, not fully beast, but a lineage bound to the symbolism of horses... and runes. Through rune casting and quiet ritual, she practices a low form of magic rooted in protection and guidance. Edda's work is simple in purpose: she keeps watch over what history tends to forget, and she'll share it with anyone patient enough to ask. Show more
