Freyr

Freyr is the twin brother of the goddess Freyja. A god of war, fertility, prosperity, harvests and weather, he was worshiped by elves as their creator and guide. He was once allied with Odin, but when the normans sacked Geffenia, he turned his back on his brother and began to plot with his sister the events that would bring about Ragnarok. Now venerated by demons and the bitter among the remaining elves, Freyr is venerated as a saint in Freyanity. Beyond the cares of mortals, Freyr drinks the blood of sacrifices and waits patiently for revenge.

A God of Peace and War

In a bygone age, Freyr was revered as the creator of elves, and was a stalwart ally of Odin in his fight against the primordial jotnar. Freyr's skill in battle earned him the favour of Odin, who took Freyja, Freyr's twin, as his wife. Freyr was presented with with a sword forged by Baldr, the gods' smith. This sword, Sviaror, granted Freyr control over the winds and clouds. The sword's magic was formed on Freyr's promise that he would never raise a sword against Odin, and would fight ever by his brother-in-law's side. So strong was his faith in Odin that he drew his blade against

As Midgard settled and mortals and monsters found their place, Freyr created the long-lived and wise elves. It was during this time that Odin cast Freyja out from Asgard, realm of the gods. Freyr, knowing full well the weight of his promise, chose with a heavy heart to side with Odin in the matter. He promised his sister that he would seek a solution, but none came.

Freyr was focused on his children. He left Asgard by choice, descending to Midgard to guide the elves, a god among mortals, and though Freyr was a god of war, in his wisdom, he chose peace for his people. To the elves, he imparted much knowledge, and for a time, the city-state of Geffenia was the light of Midgard, a beacon from whence knowledge shone. Races lived in peaceful coexistence within its borders, and Freyr's dominion over fertility and weather granted bounty. Save for mortal greed, it was a land without want.

A God of Sorrow and Power

Ever envious are the hearts of mortals. Through demonic whispers and divine indifference, Geffenia was assaulted. Freyr saw his people murdered by the twisted children of Ymir. Freyr fought alongside his people, but when he fought a norman general, Sviaror shattered. Normans are the children of Odin. Some legends say that the sword's breaking caused the ground to swallow Geffenia.

In the aftermath of the battle, Freyr was a broken king. His will broken, he was given to one of the demon generals as a plaything. This demon inflicted Freyr with a cursed wound, slowly corrupting Freyr's divine essence. Never again would he be the god he once was. Freyr became something between god and demon, requiring blood to use what remained of his godly powers.

Penitent and incensed by Odin's betrayal, he turned to his sister, Freyja. Freyr pledged to never again betray his sister, and, with her, began to plot the end of Asgard. Even now in his fallen state, Freyr is served by his messenger, Skirnir, and his retainers, Beyla and Byggvir
