	'''Sulkavaris, Knower of Names''' is the [[egregores\|Egregore]] of Wintermark. It appears dressed in the traditional garb of the Winterfolk either as Suaq, ~~Kallavasi~~ or Steinr as suits its role. Sulkavaris particularly enjoys being told riddles or shown other examples of Wintermark art and children are encouraged to create riddles of their own to tell.		'''Sulkavaris, Knower of Names''' is the [[egregores\|Egregore]] of Wintermark. It appears dressed in the traditional garb of the Winterfolk either as Suaq, Kallavesi or Steinr as suits its role. Sulkavaris particularly enjoys being told riddles or shown other examples of Wintermark art and children are encouraged to create riddles of their own to tell.

	In midwinter, Sulkavaris gives blessings to the virtuous but is sometimes accompanied by a malevolent figure known as the Krampus. The Krampus is a strange being that dispenses curses, but only upon those who ask for them. Individuals who feel the need to atone for something, perhaps an infidelity or a moment of cowardice in battle, will approach the Krampus and whisper their crime in its ear. The Krampus curses them, but the curse lasts only until the next winter and those who survive the curse are absolved of any wrongdoing. An image of the Krampus is often worn as a symbol by [[Wintermark Religious Beliefs#The Frayed\|the Frayed]], although it has no particular affection for them.
