Freyr

One of the most important Norse Gods, said to be an ancestor of the Swedish royal family. Freyr is a Vanir and rules over Alfheim, the realm of the light elves. Among his posessions are a shining dwarf-made boar called Gullinbursti and the ship Skíðblaðnir, which has the ability to be folded up and carried around in a pocket. He is married to the female giant Gerðr and will be killed by Surtr during the Ragnarok.
