Mead & Mischief · The people of Hedeby

Every feast needs a host.
Every saga needs trouble.

Sven has invited the North to celebrate his name day in Alga’s hall. Hedeby’s champions stand ready, honored guests have arrived, and Floki Liesmith has plans of his own.

Jarl of Hedeby · Dragon Clan

Alga

Portrayed by Katarina Elaine

Bold, watchful, and fiercely protective of Hedeby, Jarl Alga holds the four clans together as old grudges begin to stir. Her hall is open for Sven’s name day—but her welcome should not be mistaken for weakness.

The Jarl’s Consort · Host of the Name Day

Sven

Portrayed by Daniel Symes

It is Sven’s name day, and all Hedeby has been invited to celebrate. Warm-hearted and generous with both mead and hospitality, he stands beside Alga as the gathering draws friends, rivals, and at least one dangerous wanderer.

The Mysterious Wanderer · Maker of Mischief

Floki Liesmith

Portrayed by Raphael Keghetzig Braniff

Floki tells a fine story, especially when the truth would spoil his fun. Peeved by last year’s events, the wandering troublemaker returns with Jötnar and monsterkin allies—and a scheme aimed squarely at Alga’s rule.

Champion of Hedeby · Strongest Man in the North

The Thunderer

Portrayed by Wyatt Meriwether

The mighty champion of Hedeby meets every challenge with muscle, honor, and the confidence of someone who has yet to find a weight he cannot lift.

Keeper of the VIV experience

Rikaviður

The illustrious Rikaviður watches over the Huscarls and Valkyrie Club, ensuring the hall’s most honored guests receive a legendary welcome.

A face of the gathering

Jay Cormier

One of the people bringing Hedeby’s living story to life throughout the festival.

Lady of the Huldafolk · Viking Fairies

Sæla

Portrayed by Eowyn Reynard

Her name means “happiness” or “bliss,” and Sæla carries both wherever the Huldafolk gather. Bright, curious, and full of wintry mischief, she brings the old magic of the Viking fairies into Hedeby.

Keep your eyes open in Hedeby. These characters will move through the gathering, and your choices may change what happens next.
