Djo,

Brownie points* for figuring that out. The lizards take a very evolutionary view of other species, and consider birds to have made a very poor choice when they traded away their fine scales for nasty feathers.

Speaking of mysteries to be unraveled...

It is now clear (to me at least) that Vanheim is playing Helheim. This is the only way for an undead god to be appropriate for the theme. There aren't too many undead who make sense. I quote Galameteia:

"I don't know. Some say he is a revenant. No one really knows."

Obviously a revenant is impossible (the Lady in the Tower could possibly be a revenant, but Djo warns us that the cast of characters will not be identical to the commanders in his game). The only two gods really possible are the lich and the lich king. Not much to differentiate between the two... except that it's clear Vethru has air magic (if we are able to infer anything from the battle in turn 12). With Vanheim's easy access to air, I would assume this means Vethru will be used in battle, which would strongly favor the more durable lich chassis.
