Intro

Hello! My name is Felix. I am a syncretic polytheist, and this blog is specifically for my Finnish polytheism (Suomenusko/ Väenusko) worship & practice. My name comes from the fact that Tapio is my main god I worship! I also worship Ukko and Ahti/Ahto, and I do plan to expand!

♪ O thou water, curb thy son, Thou, O wave, hold back thy child; Thou, O Ahto, calm the breakers, Vellamo, subdue the waters that they do not overwhelm us, oversplashing rib and gunwale. ♪

(Eino Friberg translation, 1989)

are those new death heads from south?

Yes! Ahto and Milla work in the South faction. I thought that since we have more or less Plague and Cure established for the South I should probably show some regular employees from the South.

By the way, they both got Finnish name :3 Miffy Bunny used to be called Milla in Finnish until it changed to its international name Miffy. I love Miffy so that's why her name is Milla.

Ahto is one version from Ahti, who in the Finnish native folklore is the king of bodies of waters, similar to Poseidon.
