FRIGG -- Goddess of Destiny and Marriage

Aliases: Frigga, Freja, Frige

Wife to Odin, Frigg is a strong and capable Goddess that sees many things, but speaks very little. Her guiding hand gives solace to women in childbirth — and she is ever the mother, the wife, and the protector. When her son Baldr spoke to her of his prophetic deadly nightmares, Frigg journeyed to every living creature and asked that they not harm her son. She knows many magics — her falcon skin can transform anyone without the risk of them being lost in the animal spirit, and her skills at fortunetelling are almost beyond compare. Some believe her to be a Titan, others a mortal sorceress who draws power from the old energies of the World, but Frigg keeps her enigmas close to heart to guard her secrets and her rare failures alike.

Today, Frigg appears as a matronly woman with motherly, piercing blue eyes. No matter the season, she wears a piece of jewelry that hints at mistletoe. She is always in the presence of three young maidens; one can be seen carrying an ash cigar-box purse. Frigg appears highly concerned and takes on roles that allow her to enact diplomacy or tell the future — a tutor at War College, a marriage counselor, an international diplomat, a high-profile financial planner. Her Incarnations can also be found as NICU nurses comforting pregnant women or as doulas assisting natural births.

Frigg sees the bigger picture, but sometimes fails to see what is right in front of her. She expects her Scions, typically female, to focus on what she cannot see. Oaths are vastly important in this relationship: her Scions will always feel her presence, and they tend not to be prone to quick action. Like Frigg, they take their time to logically attack a problem, no matter how long it takes.

She also requires them to swear an oath they will never harm Baldr, but more than a few have died regretting that promise.
