Sigholm the Unworthy

Sigholm the Unworthy was a legendary king of Skjolzir according to the Song of Sigvening.
== Biography ==
Sigholm was the younger brother of Sigvening the Navigator and jealous of him. When their father, King Sigmere Redblade, was slain by the King of Uld, Sigholm took the opportunity to enact a coupe that sent his brother fleeing into the tundra of Nordures. For nine years he ruled Skjolzir during famine and plague until Sigvening returned with the power of the shamans and slew him, returning the rightful heir to the throne of Skjolzir. Sigholm was turned inside out by his brother's magic and is thus often depicted without skin in ancient artwork.
