This awesome sketch art card of Eir from Norse Mythology is drawn by the very talented artist Jose Carlos Sanchez for our Classic Mythology III trading card set.




Eir – (Iaer, Aer, Eira, Eria, Eyra, and Eil) - Eir’s name means “help” or “mercy.”. She is the goddess associated with healing. She is known to be one of the handmaidens of Frigg, who is wife of Odin, the king of the gods.

Eir is the healer of the other gods and goddesses. If they were ever sick or injured; Eir would heal and protect them. One of the things Eir uses to heal people is ritual involving a white tanned flower (called the "Eirflower" for this reason). She would only use this ritual if she really needed to.

As a Valkyrie, Eir accompanied her battle-sisters. While the other Valkyries chose the slain, Eir would choose who would live and recover and return to health. As a chooser of life and death, she is sometimes associated with the Norns.
