Sven Hjort

Sven Ulric Hjort is a fictional character created by Gilbert Martinez. He is a shy Swedish immigrant who is friends with Grissom Stevens, Rocky Luciano, Alan Hertz, Cherry Zard, and Sadie Dawes. His father is the world-famous rock star Ragnar Hjort. Sven is a secondary character in the animated miniseries This Is My World. He lives in Hog's Head Terrace.
While his move to Fairbanks, WA, isn't officially given in the miniseries, Gilbert has stated that Sven moved there from Sweden on September 15, 2018, due to the passage of Article 13 in the EU and multiple issues with refugees in Sweden.
==Trivia==
*Sven's surname was intentionally chosen to sound vaguely like "horse," as with Alan's surname.
*The idea for Ragnar being Sven's world-famous rock star father was made up on the spot. Gilbert was talking with a friend about what the human version of Sven would look like, which his friend remarked looked like Robert Plant. What ensued was the creation of Ragnar, who is based heavily on Robert Plant.
