Bright Servant

Question: What happened with Skirnir in your chronicles?

Nothing, actually! None of the PCs have ever met Skirnir, nor do I think they've ever even talked about him. His major adventure in Norse mythology, that of helping Freyr convince the giantess Gerd to become his wife and consequently losing the sword that ensures his defeat at Ragnarok, happened long before the current generation of Scions were born, and Skirnir had vanished by the time they made their way to Asgard. As Skirnir disappeared from Norse myth after Freyr was married, so he vanished from Scion's landscape.

The PCs never tried to find him, so they've never heard any more from him. They did in fact go looking for Freyr's sword, but Skirnir did not have it. And without actually trying to find out more, they probably won't know any more.
