Jhavi Jorasdottir

“DRAKKAR! I am Jhavi! Blood of Svanir, a daughter of Jora! You know why I've come, yet you cower in the ice! Face me, and let us finish what you started!
Warmaster Jhavi Jorasdottir is a norn necromancer,[1] follower of Raven, and one of the leaders of the Vigil.[2][3] As the great-granddaughter of the norn hero Jora,[4] she has spent most of her life living in her ancestor's shadow. It can be difficult to separate the respect she has earned as a leader of the Vigil from the respect her lineage demands.
| Following General Almorra Soulkeeper's death and the end of the Icebrood War, Jhavi succeeds her as the new General of the Vigil.[5] |
Biography[edit]
Early years[edit]
Jhavi is the great-granddaughter of Jora, the great-grandniece of Svanir, and a follower of Raven. At some point she joined the Vigil, and Vigil members in Hoelbrak began using this fact to promote interest in the Vigil to other norn,[2] calling Jhavi a 'Vigil leader,' although, aside from reporting directly to General Almorra Soulkeeper, she did not seem to have much of a leadership role.[6]
Personal story[edit]
Jhavi was a Warmaster in the Vigil Keep, with Warmaster Yosif reporting to her. She reported directly to General Almorra during this time,[7] and eventually they came to be good friends.
Living World Season 4[edit]
Jhavi was stationed at Jora's Keep in the Far Shiverpeaks while General Soulkeeper was leading the attack against Kralkatorrik.
