Biography[edit | edit source]
Background[edit | edit source]
After the fall of the storm giant city of Tempestar, Woden abandoned the storm giants.[1] As a result, by 812 PD, Woden's throne on the council sat empty for generations, while the Scepter of Wodensdottr was stored in the vaults of Jovatthon.[2]
By 836 PD, the storm giants were represented on the council by Sea Dreamer Galadawna, but she refused to take up Woden's throne or scepter.[1]
