Runo Stromkirk

Runo Stromkirk is the progenitor of the Stromkirk line of vampires on Innistrad.

In life, Runo was a high priest who worshipped pre-Avacynian gods of the sea and storms. As a vampire he established his dominion at Drunau in Nephalia and supported master craftsmen and commissioning buildings, towers, and ships, while funding any vampire-friendly efforts by alchemists and magisters.

Runo has developed a significant interest in the coastal cults of Nephalia. He has worshipped (protected by his glamer) alongside cultists of the Kralmar and the Gitrog, and thrown sacrifices into the waves for unnamed entities. His spiritual craving has not been satisfied yet, for he has not settled down with any one cult. Some humans revere him as a prophet.
