Dan Symes as Sven, wearing his magnificent fur coat in front of the wooden pyre

The birthday boy. The husband. The coat.

Sven.

Portrayed by Dan Symes

Big coat. Bigger heart.
No idea what could go wrong.

You’re invited. Obviously. ↓

Hedeby · It’s his name day

He invited everyone.
Yes. Everyone.

It’s Sven’s name day, and Alga’s husband has one beautiful, uncomplicated dream: an absolutely legendary party.

So he invited the clans. And the Jötnar. And the monster folk. And Loki. Because why would anyone cause trouble when they could be celebrating Sven?

Hedeby may have a few concerns. Sven has a fur coat and a very good feeling about this.

Meet your host

His job is party.

Lovable? Completely. A master strategist? He looks wonderful in that coat.

Sven loves his wife, loves a celebration, and believes almost any problem can be solved by inviting more people. His heart is enormous. His guest list is a security incident.

Alga, Jarl of Hedeby
Special skill
Making everyone feel invited
Risk assessment
“They seem fun!”
Entire personality?
Some say it’s the fur coat.
Sven gestures enthusiastically beside the blazing VikingFest pyre
Excellent coat. Enthusiastic hosting. Several questions.
Alga, Jarl of Hedeby and Sven’s wife

A marriage. A celebration. A potential catastrophe.

Alga rules Hedeby.
Sven works the room.

He adores his wife. He is delighted you’re here. He may have just welcomed someone who would quite like to overthrow her.

While Alga has a town to protect, Sven has guests to greet. Surely everyone can behave for one name day.

Come celebrate. Keep an eye on the guest list.

A toast to Sven.
And good luck to Hedeby.

Find the man in the fur coat. Wish him a happy name day. Tell him how splendid he looks. If you notice anything suspicious, perhaps tell Alga as well.
