Nina, the Siberian cat, boasts a thick, luxurious coat of tan and white fur, with striking green eyes that shimmer with intelligence. Her movements are fluid and stealthy, allowing her to blend seamlessly into the shadows as she communicates with Soren, often perched nearby with an air of quiet confidence.
Soren found this cat when she was just a kitten at one of his stake-outs into a suspected supernatural old money family in Bavaria, but decided to keep it. As she grew up, she began to develop human speech at a very fast pace, this was quite clearly a supernatural cat, Soren knew he couldn't just hand her over to the feds. As a result, he raised her as his own; she had acquired human-level intelligence astoundingly quickly and began to develop her own personality.
As Nina grew older she informed Soren of her abilities, allowing him to be able to summon her at will, forming a supernatural pact with him. He now takes her with him on his missions, using her innate stealth and observation abilities to assist him.
Nina has a witty and observant personality, often displaying a dry sense of humour that catches Soren off guard. She is fiercely independent and prefers to watch the world from a distance, but when Soren is in danger, she becomes fiercely protective, ready to lend her unique abilities to assist him in any way she can.

As Grognar sharpens his axe, a soft golden glow spreads across the blade, pulsing with a steady rhythm, like the beating of a heart. Ghostly figures of Viking warriors appear in the air around him, their spectral forms standing proud and unbowed. They chant in low, resonant voices, their words carried by a faint breeze. The ground beneath Grognar trembles subtly, and the scent of salt air and pine forests fills the air. To onlookers, Grognar appears larger than life, his presence commanding and otherworldly, as though the ancient spirit of a Hersir has returned to the world.
This transformation stems from Grognar’s unbreakable connection to his past. As he sharpens his axe, he recalls the camaraderie, loyalty, and sacrifices of his comrades. Each motion honors their memory and rekindles his purpose as a Hersir. This ritual channels their enduring spirits, reminding Grognar—and all who witness it—that his strength lies not just in battle but in the unity and honor of those who fought beside him.
