Fasti

Fasti (died c. 870s) was a Viking warrior and kinsman to Ubba Ragnarsson who went to England during the Viking expansion, in the late 9th century.
==Biography==
One day, Fasti came upon Geirmund Hel-hide while collecting oysters for food. Geirmund introduced himself and asked whether there was room at the fire for him, as he was alone and hungry,Assassin's Creed: Valhalla – Geirmund's Saga – Chapter 9 having just washing ashore after jumping into the stormy North Sea to allay his longship crew's superstitions.Assassin's Creed: Valhalla – Geirmund's Saga – Chapter 7
Fasti gave Geirmund the basket of oysters for him to carry and lead him to their camp at Ancarig, where the Danes had stationed themselves waiting to see if the Torthred could die twice, believing he was a living-dead creature. They ate, and a short time later that night, Fasti surprised Geirmund as he stole one of their boats. Fasti drew breath to shout an alarm, but Geirmund plunged his knife in Fasti's throat before he could cry out, killing him.
