Eivor was a Viking from Norway who participated in raids in England against King Alfred the Great.[3] They[4] were also in possession of a Hidden Blade, using it in combat against the Anglo-Saxons.[5]

Biography

In 873 CE,[6] Eivor and their clan of Norsemen fled from Norway to escape the endless war and dwindling resources. They arrived in the southern part of Great Britain, establishing a new settlement.[4] At some point, Eivor encountered several proto-Assassins, which gave Eivor access to a Hidden Blade. Keen that the traditionally stealth-based weaponry should be visible to their enemies, Eivor wore the blade over their forearm.[6]

During their travels, Eivor was accompanied by a raven.[4]

Behind the scenes

Although the name of the main character is always Eivor, the gender of the character can be chosen.[7]

Etymology

The name Eivor, Eivør or Øyvor is a female given name derived from either Proto-Norse auja, believed to mean 'good luck', or *warjaʀ, meaning 'defender'. It may also come from the combination of Old Norse words ey- or øy- (meaning 'island') and -varr (meaning 'careful').[8]

According to Creative Director Ashraf Ismail, the name is pronounced as Ay-vor.[9]
