For his great battle-prowess demonstrated many a time from an early age,
Bragi was appointed chieftain by his people, the red-haired Vanir.
He led his warriors, “the wolves of Bragi”, in a bloody clash against Wulfhere’s
band of Aesir reavers on an icy plain in Nordheim - facing none other than the
renowned Cimmerian himself.
Though his men all fell in the fight, Bragi would live to see another day -
having suffered a mighty knock to his helmet during the battle,
leaving him unconscious until the storm of blades had settled.
Upon waking, he found that the Aesir leader had been spared in similar fashion,
and the two agreed to a temporary truce -
until the day they could settle the score in the way the gods intended it.
Bragi is quick with a blade, cunning, and a master of conflict.
He has bested his elders on various occasions,
and is well aware of the jealousy that so often accompanies awe in the hearts of men.
Because of this, he has come to understand not only the way of the warrior,
but the ever-vigilant calculations of the war tactician.
