	'''Ivaldi''' was a master [[blacksmith]] who lived and worked in [[~~Asgard~~]] to repay a life debt to [[Odin]]. A native ~~of the [[Nine Realms\|realm]]~~ of [[Svartálfaheimr]], he was remembered in [[Norse mythology]] as a [[Dwarf\|dwarven]] smith.		'''Ivaldi''' was a master [[blacksmith]] who lived and worked under duress in [[Ásgarðr]] to repay a life debt to [[Odin]]. A native of [[Svartálfaheimr]], he was remembered in [[Norse mythology]] as a [[Dwarf\|dwarven]] smith. After Ivaldi returned to his home [[Nine Realms\|realm]], the [[Isu]] warlord [[Surtr]] invaded it and captured him, putting him to work once again to reveal how a recently-uncovered [[Dökkálfar and Ljósálfar\|elven]] relic worked. With the famed blacksmith thought to be dead, a resistance network against the occupiers named themselves the [[Sons of Ivaldi]] in his honor.

	After Ivaldi returned to ~~Svartálfaheimr~~, the ~~realm was~~ invaded ~~by the~~ [[~~Muspels~~]]. ~~The~~ blacksmith ~~established~~ a resistance network against the ~~occupying forces which became known as~~ the [[Sons of Ivaldi]].

	In Norse mythology, the Sons of Ivaldi were an unnamed group of dwarves he had fathered who made several key pieces for the gods, including [[Freyr]]'s magically unfolding [[ship]] [[Skíðblaðnir]], Odin's returning spear [[Gungnir]], and [[Sif]]'s golden hair. According to the 17th century [[Iceland]]ic poem ''{{Wiki\|Hrafnagaldr Óðins}}'' ("Odin's raven-{{Wiki\|Galder (incantation)\|galdr}}") styled after the anonymously-written ''{{Wiki\|Poetic Edda}}'', they were all collective brothers to [[Idun\|Iðunn]], who is described as the "youngest of the elder children of Ivaldi".<ref name="Wiki">{{WP\|Sons of Ivaldi}}</ref>		In Norse mythology, the Sons of Ivaldi were an unnamed group of dwarves he had fathered who made several key pieces for the gods, including [[Freyr]]'s magically unfolding [[ship]] [[Skíðblaðnir]], Odin's returning spear [[Gungnir]], and [[Sif]]'s golden hair.
