He is also shown to be a possessive person as well, as he would pursuit anyone who have important knowledge. Alfaðör is the King of Ásgarðr, the Celestial Realm. One of the most powerful gods, if not the most powerful god in the Heroes pantheon, his actions and motivations are kept vague aside from comments made by others in reference to him for much of the story until Book IX. When first mentioned in Xenologue 5, it is stated that nothing lies beyond his power.

In the past, Alfaðör went by a different name. In the pursuit of knowledge, he performed the Rite of Heaven twice, sacrificing an eye and then later his being through hanging, gaining the abilities to manipulate knowledge-gathering ravens and wander between life and death. Through these experiences, Alfaðör gained knowledge greater than that of all the other gods and inherited the title of Alfaðör, a god beyond all others. One of the only things that were beyond his knowledge were the Twilit Runes, a prophecy that encompasses all of time and foretells the destruction of each god of Zenith, which Alfaðör was unable to read himself. Alfaðör uses a magical scepter called Celestial Gungnir as his weapon.
