Characters in the Viking age
Hefring the Faithless , Runekeeper and Thegn
I am Hefring the Faithless , Runekeeper and Thegn. I am a sailor from the Viking port of Svineborg. I followed the cormorant across Njord’s waves and I now fight with the Spears of the Andred’s wood. I wield the Langseax and shield or the Longbow, but am happiest when swinging my Daneaxe.
