Jussi

Jussi, known as Fussy Jussi, was one of the original members of Ardith's Resistance Band which later went on to form Sigehold Hall. He was also the commander of the Talon Sworn military unit that formed a backbone to the hall within it's original location in Skarsind.

History
Jussi was originally from Leoding Hall, and it was with his two brothers, Iron Osric and Laughing Wulfric that he joined Ardith in her fight against the Thule. Later they would be joined by Relnor, also of Leoding Hall. He was known as Fussy Jussi, though this was never actually conferred upon him by a Scop, as a result of both his attention to people and his bedside manner as a Grimnir.

Joining the Hall
He joined with Ardith in her resistance band against the Thule and then later, after Skarsind was taken back, he and his brother's helped her found Sigehold Hall on the mountain range between Pakaanen's Pass and the Glen of Shadows. His cheerful presence and the enthusiasm with which he greeted all aspects of life made him a favourite within the Hall even as it grew.

His dedication to his skein as a Grimnir was evident in all aspects of his life within the Hall and it was his ambition to write a collection of cures to the Assassin's Gate poisons, alas, this was still incomplete at the time of his death.

Time in Anvil
At first Jussi was nervous as to the concept of Anvil and his place within it, he is quoted as saying "I'm a Grimnir not a politician" but his elder brother, Wulfric, convinced him to go and he found that he enjoyed his time in Anvil very much. He was an enthusiastic member of the Hospital and was fascinated to learn of the different styles of healing used across the Empire.

As ever Jussi made friends wherever he went and especially amongst the Healers of Wintermark in particular and within the Hospital more generally.

Death
He fell alongside others of his hall, Elijas the Red, Esteri and Lumi the Bright, at the Battle of Ikka's Tears at the Autumn Equinox of 378. This meant that he was not there to receive word that his Talon Sworn had been completely decimated in a skirmish on the borders of Wintermark from the survivors, Thandral Proudhart, Roana, Eeva Sigeing and Veikko. He was however, able to say goodbye through the Saker's use of Whisper's Through the Black Gate and had specific messages for his brothers Osric and Wulfric as well as his particular friend, Agnes. Agnes later named her first child for Jussi.
