Yigg<br />

Lord <strong>of</strong> Storm and Sea<br />

Yigg is the Raging Storm. His winds shred sails, freeze<br />

rigging. He sends icebergs to test his worshippers and<br />

to destroy their foes. One <strong>of</strong> the Vadrudi, he followed<br />

first Vadrus and then Valind but unlike most <strong>of</strong> his kin,<br />

he was never defeated or tamed. When the Great Glacier<br />

was destroyed, he fashioned a great longship, Howling<br />

Stead, from his father’s bones and sailed it and a band <strong>of</strong><br />

bloodthirsty gods across the icy seas.<br />

He has few worshippers, most <strong>of</strong> whom are bands <strong>of</strong><br />

fierce pirates who live along the Fronelan coast and the<br />

islands bearing his name. From these icy lairs, they sail<br />

swift longships to raid, burn and plunder. His worshippers<br />

are violent and rootless, hated almost everywhere. He is<br />

depicted as a fierce bearded man, a snarling figurehead or<br />

a hurricane cloud. His temples are usually shrines, each<br />

band <strong>of</strong> reavers having one on their ships, though larger<br />

temples exist in the cult’s frigid home waters and among<br />

pirate fleets. Shrines teach Sail Through Ice.<br />

Yinkin<br />

Father <strong>of</strong> Shadow Cats<br />

Yinkin is the son <strong>of</strong> Kero Fin, Mother <strong>of</strong> Mountains, and<br />

Fralar, Lord <strong>of</strong> Carnivores. He is Orlanth’s half-brother<br />

and the loyalty between the two is legendary. When Yinkin<br />

was still a cub, Orlanth accidentally blew him out <strong>of</strong> their<br />

cave to plunge to the rocks far below. Orlanth then flew<br />

to his rescue. Yinkin was Orlanth’s companion during the
