In the frozen realm of Jotunheim, where ice and snow reign eternal, there lived a mighty frost giant named Hrimnir. Unlike many of his kin who were content to dwell in their icy halls, Hrimnir possessed an insatiable desire to spread the cold grip of winter far beyond his homeland.
Hrimnir was ancient beyond measure, his beard white as fresh snow and his eyes like chips of glacial ice. His breath could freeze rivers solid, and his footsteps left trails of frost that would never melt. He commanded the winds of the north and could summon blizzards with a mere gesture of his massive hands.

The Story of Surt, the Fire Giant
Aug 14, 2025
In the burning realm of Muspelheim, where rivers of lava flow like water and the very air shimmers with heat, there rules a giant of such immense power that even the gods speak his name with a mixture of respect and dread. He is Surt, the Black One, guardian of the flame realm and wielder of a sword so bright it outshines the sun itself.
Surt is as old as fire itself, having existed since the very beginning of creation when Muspelheim was first formed from the primordial flames. He stands taller than the greatest mountains, his skin black as charcoal but glowing from within with the heat of a thousand forges. His hair and beard are made of living flame, crackling and dancing with every breath he takes.
