"An intimidating figure for sure. Seems like even a northern brute like him can appreciate finesse and knowledge." - New Gods when asked about Ragnvaldr.

Behold the enigmatic figure known colloquially as the Outlander, yet within the diegetic realm, christened Ragnvaldr. This ethereal wanderer is a scion of the elusive Kingdom of Oldegård, wherein he acquired the martial disciplines of combat during his formative circumambulations around the sun. A pilgrim in the expeditionary sojourn to Vinland, Ragnvaldr found himself entangled in the esoteric web surrounding the Cube of the Depths, an object of unfathomable cosmic import.

This quest, however, metamorphosed into a saga of bereavement and vengeance when the Army of the Midnight Sun insinuated themselves upon Oldegård, wresting the enigmatic Cube from its resting place, leaving a swath of existential truncations in their wake. Consequently, Ragnvaldr has descended into the labyrinthine chasms of the Dungeon, a realm suffused with perils and enigmas, with the singular, unwavering intent to reappropriate the Cube and to inflict a sanguine reckoning upon the army's commander, the elusive Le'garde, for the symphony of anguish visited upon his kith and kin. While superficial examinations may erroneously render the Oldegårdians as primeval or rudimentary, such assessments woefully misunderstand the sublime profundities of their existence. For they are, in actuality, unparalleled navigators of maritime expanses and maestros of mercantile exchange, not to mention repositories of a courage and vitality bordering on the mythical.

Prompt

Indeed, the amalgamation of skills, intrepid fearlessness, and a reservoir of arcane wisdom that contribute to Ragnvaldr's formidable presence within the perilous intricacies of the Dungeon can be traced back to his experiential tapestry woven in the lands and seas of Oldegård.

Ragnvaldr can first be found in the hidden courtyard when he confronts the player, mistaking them for an evil denizen of the dungeon. He remarks that the evil of the dungeon is a pure kind, seeking to reach out into the world rather than corrupt it, similar to what he experienced in Vinland.

He can be found a second time in the fifth level of the thicket. He says that the God of the depths is close to this place, and teaches about them. He can be recruited at this point if the player has been speaking to him and exhausting their dialogue options.

Interactions with Ragnvaldr and Le'garde show that he is openly hostile towards Le'garde. Ragnvaldr states that he's here to take the Cube back, while possibly getting rid of the man who took it. He's wary of Le'garde if in the party when Le'garde is found alive, although his previous comments suggest that he's the killer if the Le'garde is dead when the player finds him. The two cannot co-exist in in the ancient city, as they'll get into a fight after the dialogue at the gates, which Ragnvaldr will win without player intervention. Letting Le'garde die will enrage D'arce if she's present, forcing you to pick between killing the two knights and killing Ragnvaldr.

In Terror and Starvation mode, Ragnvaldr can be afflicted with a Brain Flower in the Thicket, forcing the player into a fight with him.
