Hildr Bronze-Arm (pronounced HILL-dur) was a legendary Rothurlandic viking who lived in the early ninth millennium. Though a historical figure, many of the details of her life have become clouded in myth. She is widely regarded as the first of the Bronze-Armed, the descendants of Rothurlandic colonists who settled on the southern and western coasts of the Chaska Sea.
Tales of Hildr's exploits are an important part of Bronze-Armed culture. In many she is a hero, a great protector who fought sea beasts that attacked ships under her command as they sailed forth from Rothurland, heading towards the southern Chaska for the first time. In some cautionary tales she takes a more ambiguous role, a leader who cared for her people yet who was prone to lash out violently at those close to her. Historically she was once seen by many as a saint of Runo, but these beliefs have faded greatly with time.
