Appearance:

Standing a handsome 2.4 meters, Velkar is not a physical giant by comparison to his brother or other family members. However, what he lacks in this attribute he makes up for in intelligence. His godly appearance, the form he much prefers, is a handsome face framed in long black hair which he wears back. He is neat in dress and prides himself on this and is far more stylish then the other gods.

Emerald green eyes can be soft when looking upon those he loves, but hidden behind them is his true nature .. always. He has a winning smile, when given in sincerity and only few that had witness to it. A smile given any other time is prelude to danger and death.

His physical frame is deceptive, many have underestimated his ability thinking him weak of strength, however they realise all too late as their body slumps to the ground that he is more than a capable warrior.

Biography:

Family

Father: Odiir - God of Wind and Skies
Mother: Runa - Goddess of Earth and Oceans
Brother: Helm - God of War and Justice [firstborn]
Sister: Éar - Goddess of the Hunt and Fertility [midborn]
Uncle: Teign - God of Smithing and Crafting

Born in the realm of Beornskald to Odiir and Runa he is godborn, and lastborn of his family. From birth he was a handsome child, and as he grew his charm developed winning the hearts of anyone that met him. He was a quick study in the arts of magic mostly taught to him by his mother, and mastered the art of illusion above all. This skill alongside his true nature of mischief gave him the ability to play tricks on those unsuspecting, especially his siblings and with his charming demeanour was able to deflect fault away from himself.

As he grew to adulthood, his abilities reached great heights, equally to his siblings but never as powerful as his father Odiir, the High God. He is capricious, a part of his makeup that makes him dangerous and unpredictable which is a strength to a large degree, especially when facing enemy. However, his family members also are not immune from this side of him. He coverts the Throne, but his love for his family stifles his ambition to take it, or at least try to. For now...

Velkar has pitted god against god, incited war between them. Caused rifts between family members and the court of his father. All with the hidden agenda to cause mayhem and destablise the realm making it ripe for the taking. But over the years his family came to learn of his nature, his mother all seeing through his plans and illusions would prevent any dissension that would cause 'great' damage to the realm.

After all he is the God of Fire and Mischief. And his family love and hate him for it.

Velkar views the Valkyri as nothing but base in intelligence, although they worship him and the others. And one day in a mood of boredom, mischief beckoned. The gift of fire had been bestowed upon the Valkyri in accordance with his father's wishes, to give the peoples of Midvinter the ability to keep warm and cook and provide them with means of survival. However, he tricked them into misuse and after many homes were lost, forest burned to the ground and further considerable damage done, Velkar trick his father into plunging Midvinter into the land of Ice and Snow.

The Ice Age was upon them.

But once the ruse had been uncovered, Odiir became so angry he transformed Velkar into an old back bent woman, cut out his silver tongue and banished Velkar from Beornskald to the mortal realm of Midvinter. Velkar stands at Nágrindr, the gateway of the dead, his purpose now is to help the Valkyri dead to cross the threshold into Beornskald, a place he cannot enter and return home. Odiir's agenda is that Velkar will learn humility.

Currently his only form of communication is to scratch on the ground with a stick, he is forbid to 'speak' his name in any form on pain of death.


Role Plays:

To come

 

[Coci Heavenshield]

According to Valkyri mythologi, the world of Midvinter was created by the Gods of Old:

Odiir; God of the Wind and Skies, who also serves as the High God, and ruler of all lesser gods.
Runa; Goddess of the Earth and Oceans, wife of Odiir, and also serves as the namesake of Runian, the native tongue of the Valkyri.
Teign; God of Smithing and Crafting, younger brother of Odiir.
Helm; God of War and Justice, firstborn of Odiir and Runa.
Éar; Goddess of the Hunt and Fertility, sister to Helm.
Velkar; God of Fire and Mischief, lastborn of Odiir and Runa.

There are many more lesser gods being worshipped by the Valkyri people, though any and all would agree that these are the most widely worshipped and adored among them. Legends state that Odiir himself, the High God, molded their world and everything surrounding it, with the aid of his wife Runa, who brought life to the seas and earth, and his brother Teign, who crafted the very first Valkyri and animals out of ice. Odiir then proceeded to breathe life into all creatures sculpted by his brother, and so the planet came to fruition. At first, the newborn people were undisciplined and unsure of how to spend their time. It was at that point that Helm, the God of War, descended upon the mortal world and instructed them about the nature of warfare, and proceeded to gift them with weapons forged by his uncle himself. The skills of crafting and smithing was then passed onto the mortals so that they would become strong and prosperous.

The world itself used to be a paradise, with great mountains high enough to touch the sky, lush forests and widespread oceans. While having always been a cold world, it was nowhere near as frozen as its current state might suggest. This is the result of Velkar, who managed to trick his father Odiir into engulf the land in ice almost entirely. He was tasked with bringing the mortals the gift of fire so that they could warm themselves during the long winters, and so he did. However, he tricked the gullable mortals into reckless behaviour, which resulted in many homes across the world catching fire. He rushed to his father's side, explaining how lacking in intelligence the poor fools were and that they verged on extinction by their own hand. Thus, the High God brought to the world of mortals an age of ice in order to stop the rampaging fires. In time, the Valkyri learned to harness the gift of fire, thereby proving the Fire God wrong in describing them as unintelligent; one of the many proud achievements the Valkyri hold dear. Because of his treachery, Velkar must never be depicted, as doing so will bring misfortune upon whoever does.

A few notes for the Bio.

• Banished to Midvinter - Odiir sent him there to teach him humility
• Mortal form of an old woman
• Unable to speak - tongue has been removed
• Forbid to convey in any form his true name (on pain of death)
• Only form of communication is to scratch in the dirt with a stick

@Thurion I just had a thought. The species of the gods, would they be Valkyri or Runian?

It is the ancient language but could it also be the species of them?

This is actually quite sad.

Tom Hiddleston does a fantastic job of playing him as the lovable villain. Even though there is a lot of poetic licence in Marvel with the Mythology. He is the best character by far.

Trust my rage!

I am so using that line somewhere in the thread.

Anyway [member="Thurion Heavenshield"], to be with me.

See you ..
