*Greip's Shield (size large, +2 animated frost giant shield of reverse gravity, SR 15)*

* This shield was forged in honor of the frost giant maiden Greip in the Age of Yggdrasil, a heroine cruelly murdered by the god Thor long ago
* This large shield looks to be forged of a chunk of ice, with ripples of blue light that pulse in it constantly, and is said to be forged from the ice of the unfreezing glacier known as Nigardsbrin in Jotunheim. The magic of that glacier works to absorb the seidr hurled at its wielder (SR 15)
* It is permanently animated, and floats within two feet of its wielder at all times
* Once per day, the shield is able to magical reverse gravity (CL 14)
* This item was the birthright of the fabled Hrokum family, a clan of frost giant champions throughout the ages. It was taken from the nobleman frost giant warrior Singvuld Hrokum by Vungar when the wolf slayed him

**Description:**

Vungar in his Fire Drake Hide Armor

 The party first met Vungar as a companion of the old merchant Rigg. Vungar has become a trusted ally of the party, fighting with them and acting as the parties scout and guide. He does ice damage when he bites his enemies.

Vungar is an old wolf past his prime. He is especially close to Esbjorn and seems more intelligent than an animal should be. Vungar is about 8 feet long and stands about 4½ feet at the shoulder. He weighs about 450 pounds

**History:** Ulver, Vungar's brother, betrayed all of the winter wolves and sold them into slavery to the frost giants. Vungar loves Esbjorn because he knows Esbjorn hates frost giants too and will help him get his revenge.
