'''Vetr''' was a [[Denmark|Danish]] [[Vikings|Viking]] who fought under ''[[jarl]]'' [[Osbern]] during the [[Viking expansion|Viking invasion]] of [[England]] in the 9th century.

==Biography==
There was little known about Vetr's past, except that he fought under ''jarl'' Osbern and fought in the [[Battle of Ashdown]]. The battle proved to be a Saxon victory as Jarl Osbern fell in battle. After Osbern's death in the battle,<ref name="Chapter 13">''[[Assassin's Creed: Valhalla – Geirmund's Saga]]'' — Chapter 13</ref> Vetr joined [[Geirmund Hel-hide|Geirmund Hjörrsson]] as a member of the [[Hel-hides]] after seeing him as worthy as did other former warriors of Osbern.<ref name="Chapter 14">''Assassin's Creed: Valhalla – Geirmund's Saga'' — Chapter 14</ref>

Altogether, the Hel-hides took over the settlement with no losses and the Saxons fleeing. Thus, Guthrum later congratulated them on their victory.<ref name="Chapter 15">''Assassin's Creed: Valhalla – Geirmund's Saga'' — Chapter 15</ref>

At the [[Battle of Meretun]], Vetr and his fellow Hel-hides joined the battle against the Saxons. Once he saw [[Rafn One-Arm|Rafn]] hit, he shielded him from all incoming arrows. Luckily, the battle was won by the Vikings. After a truce was found between the Vikings and King [[Alfred the Great|Alfred]],<ref name="Chapter 17">''Assassin's Creed: Valhalla – Geirmund's Saga'' — Chapter 17</ref> Vetr and the Hel-hides traveled to [[London|Lunden]] along with the [[Great Heathen Army]]. However, their temporary stay turned sour once Geirmund and [[Aslef]] were ambushed, with Aslef being mortally wounded. Vetr was one of the five Hel-hides who agreed to join Geirmund to stray their attacker, [[Krok Uxiblóð]], away from the fellow Hel-hides.<ref name="Chapter 18">''Assassin's Creed: Valhalla – Geirmund's Saga'' — Chapter 18</ref>
