Asgardian Pantheon • Æsir
Frigg — Queen of the Æsir, Keeper of Foreknowledge & Fensalir
Frigg is the queenly power at the heart of Asgard: wife of Odin, mother of Baldr, mistress of Fensalir and a goddess who knows the shape of fate while refusing to reveal everything she knows. Her power is protective, political and prophetic—expressed through oaths, hidden knowledge, household sovereignty and the dangerous limits of trying to prevent what has been foretold.

Divine Mechanics
Frigg in Play
Frigg should feel unlike a conventional battle deity. Her encounter power comes from knowing what opponents intend, protecting allies before the blow lands, binding actions through oaths and turning apparent certainty into a different outcome. She can fight, but her most frightening turns are the ones in which the party discovers that she prepared for their plan before they made it.

Divine Traits
Divine Nature. Frigg requires no air, food, drink or sleep. She does not age.
Greater Deity — Divine Rank 17. Frigg’s rank represents divine authority over oath, foreknowledge and protection. Lower-rank effects cannot permanently strip her of those portfolios.
Legendary Resistance (6/Day). If Frigg fails a saving throw, she can choose to succeed instead.
Magic Resistance. Frigg has Advantage on saving throws against spells and magical effects.
She Knows the Fate. Frigg cannot be surprised. She has Advantage on Initiative rolls, attack rolls against creatures that have already acted in the round, and saving throws against effects she can perceive.
Oath-Woven Protection. Allies of Frigg within 60 feet gain Resistance to all damage from the first attack or damaging effect that hits them each round. This protection does not apply against a source that Frigg has explicitly exempted from the oath or against a deity of equal or greater rank.
Keeper of Unspoken Things. Frigg is immune to magic that would compel her to reveal information. Creatures of lower divine rank cannot read her thoughts unless she permits it.
Threefold Foresight. Frigg can take up to three Reactions per round, but no more than one per turn. She regains all expended Reactions at the start of her turn. Her additional Reactions can be used only for I Knew This Would Come.
Divine Immortality. Reducing Frigg to 0 Hit Points defeats her present body but does not permanently destroy her without a valid divine-death condition.
Divine Spellcasting
Frigg casts spells using Wisdom (spell save DC 35, +27 to hit with spell attacks). She requires no Material components.
At Will: any Cleric or Frigg-granted spell of 5th level or lower.
3/Day Each: any Cleric or Frigg-granted spell of 6th–8th level.
1/Day Each: any Cleric or Frigg-granted spell of 9th level.
Actions
Multiattack. Frigg makes three Thread of Fate attacks, or two Thread of Fate attacks and uses Binding Oath.
Thread of Fate. Ranged Spell Attack: +27 to hit, range 240 ft., one target. Hit: 45 (10d8) Radiant damage plus 36 (8d8) Psychic damage. Until the start of Frigg’s next turn, the target cannot gain Advantage on d20 Tests.
Binding Oath. One creature Frigg can see within 120 feet makes a DC 35 Charisma saving throw. On a failure, Frigg names one prohibition: attack a named creature, knowingly speak a lie, leave a named area, or cast a spell of a named school. Until the end of Frigg’s next turn, the creature can violate the prohibition only by first taking 66 (12d10) Psychic damage. A creature of divine rank equal to or greater than Frigg is immune.
The Queen’s Command (Recharge 5–6). Each hostile creature of Frigg’s choice within 90 feet makes a DC 35 Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, it takes 88 (16d10) Psychic damage and is Charmed by Frigg until the end of its next turn; while Charmed this way, its Speed is 0 and it cannot take Reactions. On a success, it takes half damage only.
Hawk-Plumage. Frigg transforms into a divine falcon or returns to her normal form. In falcon form she is Tiny, has a flying speed of 180 feet, can pass through spaces as narrow as 1 foot without squeezing, and retains all statistics, spellcasting and telepathy. She cannot make Thread of Fate attacks in this form.
Reaction
I Knew This Would Come. When a creature Frigg can see within 120 feet makes a d20 Test, Frigg can force it to reroll after seeing the result but before the outcome is resolved. The creature must use the new roll. Frigg can use this Reaction three times per round, but no more than once per triggering creature’s turn.
Legendary Actions — 4 Uses
- Foreseen Step. Frigg moves up to half her Speed without provoking Opportunity Attacks.
- Thread of Fate. Frigg makes one Thread of Fate attack.
- Protect the Named (Costs 2 Uses). One ally within 120 feet gains 50 Temporary Hit Points and immediately ends Charmed or Frightened on itself.
- Close the Path (Costs 2 Uses). Frigg chooses a point within 120 feet. Until the end of her next turn, teleportation and planar travel into or out of a 30-foot-radius sphere centred there fail unless created by Frigg or a deity of equal or greater rank.
- Already Foreseen (Costs 3 Uses). Frigg chooses one creature she can see. Until the end of the creature’s next turn, it has Disadvantage on attack rolls and saving throws against Frigg and her allies.
Divine Realm Actions — Fensalir
- Mist of the Fen-Halls. Silver mist fills a 60-foot-radius sphere Frigg can see. Allies inside are Heavily Obscured from enemies but can see normally through the mist.
- Fulla Opens the Coffer. Frigg or one ally she can perceive regains 75 Hit Points and one expended use of a feature that normally recharges on a Short Rest.
- Hlín Interposes. Until initiative count 20 on the next round, the first time each ally in Fensalir would be reduced to 0 Hit Points, it drops to 1 Hit Point instead.

Fate Reversal (Su). Three times per round as an immediate action, Frigg forces a creature within 120 feet to reroll a d20 after the result is known. A creature can be affected only once per turn.
