Ymur the Old
One of the Demi-Gods: Eldest of the Giants, Ymur read more of the Weltwyrdangssaga than any of is kin, and was renowned the World over for his knowledge of the future and his knowledge of Rune casting. Ymur learned the arts of war from Malog, and led the Giants against the Dwarves in the War of the Stones. Later, he slew Herogar, first Thane of the Northmen, and this deed started the great feud between the Giants and the Invorri. Cuthric the Clever, one of the reatest heroes of the Northmen, stole the secrets of rune mastery from Ymur, and later blinded the Giant in battle. Finally, the Human hero Beregund killed Ymur while questing for Shadowbane. Some say that the Giants of the Northlands still are guided by Ymur’s ancient wisdom.
