Tyrmodr
Tyrmodr, god of storms and the horizon, is one of the few gods and spirits common in the worship of Elkherds.
Elk believe that Tyrmodr is best when not present. Storms bring lightning, which spook horses and start wildfires, and cause avalanches, mudslides, and shifts in the earth which open new holes to the Dovmindunder. Blessings from an Elk typically involve wishing for Tyrmodr giving a clear path to follow, and curses take the form of wishing Tyrmodr chase the recipient out of his land - to whit, out of the world, as his home is all that is encompassed by the horizon.
The most portentous omen for the Elk is a storm at the eve of battle, as it is clear to them that Tyrmodr is present and paying close attention.
