Alrund is the blue-aligned god of Wisdom and the Cosmos from Kaldheim.[1] He sometimes disguises as the human Asi.[2]
Description
Alrund appears an an bald, old man with one eye and a grey beard.[2] He has a Cosmic raven, Hakka, who flies into all realms to collect knowledge.[3]
History
As Asi, he joined up with Inga Rune-Eyes and the planeswalker Kaya to hunt an extremely dangerous monster that already had caused destruction on the plane.[4] This turned out to be none other than Vorinclex, one of New Phyrexia's 's praetors. Reaching Aldergard forest, the party engaged Vorinclex who almost managed to defeat them if not for Alrund revealing himself and using his magic to create a mystical barrier between Vorinclex and Inga's people and the praetor left Bretagard, with Kaya soon following.
