Stub character page: name, race, and class assigned by the author to complete the six-person party roster confirmed on Gift I's page (2026-08-10). Deliberately left minimal — personality, backstory, and build details are left open for actual play rather than authored in advance.
Bjørn Ottarsson
Concept: Scandinavian Bugbear Druid, part of the Aegis of Equilibrium's Junior Warden party alongside Gift I. Fills the party's healer/support role. Leans into pre-Christian Norse shamanic tradition (seiðr, communion with land-spirits) rather than a generic forest-hermit read — and yes, a bugbear literally named "Bear" (bjørn) practicing that tradition is on the nose by design.
