People of Fristad


 * Ardit: Ardit is the rather spry, 70ish year old, healer in the village of Fristad . Or at least that is what everyone in Fristad seems to think he is. Recent events however, indicate that he is more than he initially appears on the surface - what with having at least some skill in sorcery and a bunch of artefacts from his time travelling the world as a younger man. Just who is Ardit really?
 * Hans: Hans is the slightly overweight, good natured, "innkeeper" in the village of Fristad . The inn generally acts more like a tavern, given the lack of visitors to the village, and Hans is a good brewer of mead and ale. He is married to Hilda, and acts as much like a surrogate father to Osmund, as anyone else in the village.
 * Hilda: Married to Hans, Hilda is to cooking, what Hans is to mead and ale. Her venison pie in particular is a much sought after meal. Like Hans, Hilda is slightly overweight but good natured and acts like a surrogate mother to Osmund - and any other child that walks into the inn.
 * Rasmis: Rasmis is a rather... unpleasant, hunter in the village of Fristad. While only a few years old than our protagonists, he maintains an air of disdainful superiority and is generally tolerated rather than liked. Still, he is extremely competent and is generally considered to be the best hunter in the village. Like Ardit he seems to have an odd collection of items in his home - although unlike Ardit, he has never travelled. As far as anyone knows anyway.
