Sköll
Hunter of the Gale Winds
Biography
Always on the run in pursuit of the unobtainable, Sköll is a burly shaped hunter who embodies the spirit of wolves, the hunt, and ambitions. Sköll is characterized by his fierce crimson seared axe, ferocious curled horned helmet, and their unrelenting enraged eyes. Known as a relentless diety that duels other mortals to the death, Sköll is a proud fighter that always meets his mark.
To those that meet the challenge and best him in his duels, he grants them a boon. These challenges come in many shapes and forms, but most are those to empower one's skills so that Sköll may face them in battle once again.
He rides a great spectral wolf into battle, rather than an atypical mount such as a horse. When riding his mount, a venerable gale wind blows behind him, negating projectiles from meeting their mark.
(Yes the image does not have a wolf, but I cannot commission/find a better art piece than this.)
Ancient Wolven Priomidal known as Fenrir is rumored to run down his veins, letting him transform himself into a tremendously gigantic ancient wolf. In this form, he is greatly feared by many deities. Whether it be through his sheer intimidating size, or his primordial blood, many believe this to be attested to his killing intent that he exudes in his wolven form.
While he never remains in this form for long, the sight of Sköll in his wolven form has always been rumored to be seen across the lands as he searches for another worthy contender to fight.
