Sceadugengan

Sceadugengan are known as the “dark walkers”. They begin their lives as rogues, living a life of theft, fraud and murder. Life's ambition drives the rogue to obtain the most for the least amount of effort. Their motto is “when all else fails, steal and backstab”. But while in pursuit of increasingly better concealment, pilfering and assassination techniques, they eventually fall upon the dark lore of the Svart Alfar. This pursuit takes them down a dark road where their psyche and spirit erode and are replaced with greed, envy and lust. Their growing powers are fed by the shadows and darkness, encouraging a penumbral existence. This lore and techniques transform the rogue into a Sceadugengan. The darkness becomes their play-thing. The general population of Midgard is easy prey for seasoned dark walker. Many seek out the Sceadugengan for their clandestine talents and offer lucrative contracts. The Sceadugengan's powers stem from the dance of light and dark. Despite an adoration for the Svart, the powers of shadow also require the Lios. Some of their powers will take on a life of their own, transforming their very nature to capitalize on the surrounding light and darkness.

Thief

The Sceadugengan that is driven by greed seeks the path of the thief. Wealth is a motivator, but the thrill of the score is what truly excites her. It is said that in Svartalfheim you can have your sword plucked right out of your hand without even knowing it. The Thief studies the techniques that allow her to secretly pilfer personal effects, even in the heat of battle. No one's possessions are safe when a Sceadugengan Thief is around.

Assassin

Most Sceadugengans' actions are beholden to their shady moral compass. However the darkest of those belong to the assassins. They are the ones who have embraced their talent and bliss when choking out the flame of life. The combat style that they bring back from the shadow involves the least amount of strikes in order to murder their quarry. Those who are the best in this discipline also melt away after the deed is done, so as to avoid any blame.

Scoundrel

While the other Sceadugengan pride themselves at stealth, the scoundrel prefers to hide in plain sight. Their mightiest power is their disarming charisma. Replacing the need for nimble fingers and instead relying on flattery, charm and pure presence, the Scoundrel can spin almost any situation into a favourable one. The Svart lore they covet has trained the scoundrels in the art of using others to do their dirty work.
