The 'Warhammer' instead has a stone hammerhead, which tapers to a point at one end, firmly attached by a decorative golden clasp. His 'Broad Sword' has a shining steel blade and a golden piece down the length of the blade. His weapons, the Sword and Hammer, are bound by blue leather gilded with shining gold to match his headpiece. The jet colour of dark black makes the horns stand out against the rest of his appearances, juxtaposing with the equally prominent gold colour. Most imposing are the two large, pitch-black horns that the headpiece adorns Bödvar with, which extend above his head.

Valhalla is everything Bödvar hoped - an endless reward of feasting and fighting, with himself among its greatest champions. So he travelled to Asgard himself, broke down the doors, and let himself in. But he felt doomed to never be taken by the Valkyries to Valhalla because he could never manage to be defeated in battle. He led his Skandian people against the Witch Queen of Helheim, slew the White Dragon Sorcerer, and lived the life of an all-conquering hero.Īfter he single-handedly ended the Giant Wars by trapping the fire giant king in his own volcano, Bödvar sensed his work was done.
