- Not to be confused with Cosi.
Cosima is the Skoti god of the sea from Kaldheim.
Description
Uniquely among the gods she was born a Cosmos monster. She is curious, tempestuous and can't stay in one place for long.[1]
Cosima features in just about every prayer that the Omenseekers make while at sea.[2] The "Omenkeel", Cosima's longboat, is a magical vehicle that can carry its passengers through the Cosmos to any of the Ten Realms and a destination chosen by the goddess.
History
The planeswalker Kaya was given the use of Cosima's longboat in her quest to find Vorinclex, but was steered towards Gnottvold to find Tibalt instead.[3]
