===== Stories/Function =====

Oddmundr serves as a pivotal ancestral figure within the narrative of //[[:skyss:fierce]]//, as the biological father of [[:skyss:chars:yngvild|Yngvild the Fierce]] and the penultimate wielder of the sentient sword [[:skyss:chars:jafnadr|Jafnadr]]. His memories with Jafnadr helped establish for Yngvild and understanding of Skyssian resolution tradecraft, having operated as a high-level special agent for the [[:skyss:places:bot|Board of Trade]]. Within the story, his life and subsequent assassination provide the moral and political context for the current conflict with [[:skyss:chars:rojden|Rojden]], acting as a "missing link" in the lineage of the [[:skyss:chars:heroes|Heroes]] of Skyss.

===== Description =====

Physically, Oddmundr was a tall and imposing [[:skyss:chars:heroes|Hero]] with a divinity rating of 46%. Despite being nearly a century and a half old at the time of his death, his divine blood ensured he retained the appearance of a man in his early twenties. He was characterised by a physical vitality that made him an ideal operative for long-range missions. A formal portrait of him exists in the capital, depicting him in polished mail and a [[skyss:chars:kings_justice|King's Justice]] surcoat.

His most remarkable feature was his shifting eye colour, which changed based on the specific divine affinity he was channelling. When using the powers of [[:skyss:pantheon:jorunn|Jorunn]], his eyes became a vibrant green; they shifted to a deep, light-absorbing black when drawing from [[:skyss:pantheon:malfin|Malfin]], and an unnatural purple or violet when invoking the justice of [[:skyss:pantheon:fafnir|Fafnir]]. Under normal circumstances, his eyes were a clear blue with hazel flecks. Temperamentally, Oddmundr was known for his reluctance to use lethal force, preferring to use the fearsome reputation of [[:skyss:chars:jafnadr|Jafnadr]] to talk sense into adversaries rather than engaging in combat.

===== Personal Life =====

Oddmundr’s was involved in a ten-year partnership with [[:skyss:chars:helga_trollslayer|Lady Helga Trollslayer]]. Together, they operated as a resolution team for the [[:skyss:places:bot|Board of Trade]], with Oddmundr specialising in truth-finding and [[skyss:other:rituals|rituals]] of justice while Helga managed maritime logistics. He was a devoted protector of the "little people" and sought to use his heroic status to maintain international stability.

In 749 AM, Oddmundr was dispatched to [[:skyss:places:trollheim|Trollheim]] to provide oversight for a mission that the hero [[:skyss:chars:Radulfr]] had failed to resolve. During this mission, he was targeted by [[:skyss:chars:rojden|Rojden]], who at the time was masquerading as a loyal ally. In a move of calculated treachery, [[:skyss:chars:rojden|Rojden]] drugged Oddmundr with poisoned mulled beer, which neutralised his ability to defend himself or hear the warnings of [[:skyss:chars:jafnadr|Jafnadr]]. While he was unconscious, he was stabbed in the back and subsequently decapitated. His remains were returned to [[:skyss:places:kronstadt|Kronstadt]] preserved in brandy, and his sword was passed to Helga to hold in trust for their daughter.
