-------------------------

Gondlir is the Lord of Istgard - a realm that bridges the Void and the mortal world of Ki. From his great hall he looks over the affairs of mortals, rarely intervening except in times of desperate need.

Scion of a powerful family, he and his wife Galdra and his true-born sons Thaedrun & Beoldor are worshiped by the Nornishmen as the only gods worthy of praise. His adopted son Veli the Quick is not nearly as respected, but honored in Jotunheim due to his giant's blood.

Bridging the path between life and death, real and unreal, Gondlir is the default god of magic and mages. It is said that with one eye he sees the past and future, and with the other he perceives the present.

Note that although his worshipers may honor him at all times, even they are loathe to see him - for he is the Storm Raven, and grave danger will always follow shortly behind his appearing.
