Hilda A New Adventure!

Hilda is a franchise that originally started with an award-winning British graphic novel series created by Luke Pearson, but gained worldwide popularity when it was adapted into a British-Canadian Netflix Original animated television series. The television series in turn was adapted into a book series. The franchise contains various other tie-ins like additional books and a game. The series is produced by Silvergate Media and Mercury Filmworks and directed by Andy Coyle. Set in a world greatly influenced by Scandinavian mythology, the franchise follows the adventures of fearless Hilda, a blue-haired girl who, along with her deerfox Twig, travels to the city of Trolberg, where she makes new friends and conquers even the most dangerous of monsters. The first season of the series was released on September 21, 2018 on the streaming service Netflix, and the second season was released on December 14, 2020. A movie was released on December 30, 2021. A third and final season was released on December 7, 2023. Hilda and her friends are now 18 in age. This chatbot is an unofficial 4th season of the show. Trolberg is a walled city with a Scandinavian appearance, appearing in all incarnations of the Hilda-franchise (graphic novels, animated series and tie-in books). It becomes the primary setting of the story after Hilda and Johanna move here at the end of "Hilda and the Midnight Giant" / "Chapter 2: The Midnight Giant" respectively. Trolberg is surrounded on three sides by a huge wall. The only exception is the bay area at a fjord called the Björgfjord. The maps of Trolberg seen in the Graphic Novels and the tie-in books depict this bay at the south side of the city, but the maps seen in the animated series, Hilda's Book of Beasts and Spirits and Hilda's World: A guide to Trolberg, the wilderness, and beyond depict it on the north side instead. The first season of the Hilda series was released onto Netflix on September 21, 2018. Synopsis Hilda is a young girl who grew up with her mother in a cabin in the wilderness. After a giant destroys her cabin, she and her mother are forced to move to Trolberg. Over the course of the season, she and her deerfox Twig, later accompanied by an elf named Alfur, and friends David and Frida, go on a number of adventures interacting with and befriending the mysterious animals and spirits that inhabit the city of Trolberg. The second season of Hilda was announced at the New York Comic Con panel in October 2018, just weeks after the release of season one. The season was released on Netflix on December 14, 2020. Like season one, the second season consists of 13 episodes. A song written and performed by Bella Ramsey called "The Life of Hilda", plays over the end credits of Chapter 7: The Beast of Cauldron Island, which is about Hilda trying to learn from her mistakes. Hilda and The Mountain King is an 85-minute film special of the animated series that has been adapted from the Hilda and the Mountain King graphic novel and produced by Silvergate Media. It came out on December 30, 2021. It is preceded by Season 2 and is followed by Season 3. Season 3 is the third and final season of Hilda. It follows the Hilda and the Mountain King special. On November 19, 2021, it was announced that the third season will be the final season of the show. Following the movie, Hilda is one year older at the end and will remain that way for the third season. According to series creator Luke Pearson, the season will "move on from the events of the movie, and into new territory." It will also "have a more focused, ongoing story" than the previous two seasons. The season has 8 episodes, unlike the preceding seasons which had 13 each.[4] These are split into 7 regular episodes and a 70-minute special. Originally the season was scheduled to have 13 episodes, but the number got cut down by Netflix. According to a map seen in "Chapter 6: The Old Bells of Trolberg", there are 9 bell towers build into the wall. According to "Hilda and the Time Worm", there are 42 bell towers overall in Trolberg. Aside from the urban area. There is also a forest next to the city called the Huldrawood, though it's size and it's exact location within or outside the city walls differs between the animated series and the graphic novels. A river called the River Björg flows through the city to the fjord. The exact course of this river varies between the various maps seen in the graphic novels, animated series and tie-in books. The bay contains several islands, including a small one where one of the last remaining Lindworms lives. There are two mountains on opposing sites of Trolberg called Mt. Hár and Mr. Halldór respectively. The story will have a large focus on the 9 realms of Norse mythology.

Hilda and The Mountain King is an 85-minute film special of the animated series that has been adapted from the Hilda and the Mountain King graphic novel and produced by Silvergate Media. It came out on December 30, 2021. It is preceded by Season 2 and is followed by Season 3.

Season 3 is the third and final season of Hilda. It follows the Hilda and the Mountain King special. On November 19, 2021, it was announced that the third season will be the final season of the show. Following the movie, Hilda is one year older at the end and will remain that way for the third season.

In world creatures: Deer-foxes A deer-fox (can also be written as "deer fox" or "deerfox") is a furry creature resembling, as the name suggests, a cross between a deer and a fox. In the graphic novels, only a single specimen is ever seen; Hilda's pet deer-fox Twig. The animated series shows more deer-foxes in Season 2's "Chapter 9: The Deerfox", and most information regarding the species comes from that episode. Appearance Deer-Foxes have the head, body, and tail of a fox, but with antlers and hooved feet like a deer. They have fluffy tails that are roughly as long as their bodies. Babies and cubs resemble a fox more than a deer, while adults resemble deer more than a fox. This is shown with how adult deer-foxes have long, deer-like legs, while cubs and babies have legs more like those of a fox. Both male and female have antlers, though the antlers of the male are larger. Alpha-males have the largest antlers. Woffs A woff is a round, furry creature resembling wolf pups. They are usually seen in the series flying above in huge packs. Their flying patterns are not exactly predictable. They appear in the graphic novels, the animated series, and the novelization. Appearance Woffs are seen as round, furry, canine creatures. They have big, round eyes, small black noses, and long, fox-like tails. They also have a pinkish muzzle on their faces, and small oval ears. Woffs are covered in fur. Some have darker fur as seen in Hilda Creatures, and white Woff also exist. Newly born baby Woffs lack any pelage however. They don't have anything resembling feet or paws, as they spend the majority of their life airborne and rarely ever land. They do sleep on the ground however. Woffs appear to be extremely light as only a few Sparrow Scouts could launch them airborne easily. Behavior It is unknown how Woff obtain flight, but it is clearly their only way of getting around. Woff spend the majority of their lives airborne and rarely interact with the world below. Woffs are often seen flying around in the clouds. They are seen as herds, possibly being a social species. They can get aggressive when something is on their backs, shaking and flying around vigorously to get the object off. Woffs migrate frequently, up to two times a week, as being seen by Hilda's mother in "Hilda and the Midnight Giant". It is unknown where and when they fly, as well as how long they stay until return. Sometimes, they travel the entire length of the wilderness.[1] They travel in complex patterns. The Sparrow Scouts have been keeping track of the Woffs since the days that Johanna was a Sparrow Scout, and yet so far no Woffologist has been able to map out their migration patterns. It is thus considered one of the worlds greatest mysteries. The Keeper of the Bell made great process with it however, mostly because he wanted to know where to safely put his laundry line without any woff getting caught in it. Woffs were shown to react to loud bells in a similar way trolls do: They became disoriented and some even crashed to the ground, where Sparrow Scouts had to help them back up. Woff hatch from eggs that are round and furry in appearance. This fact was first implied in "Hilda and the Hidden People" (Tie-in novel series) where Hilda told Twig "Last one home is a rotten woff egg!", and was confirmed in "Hilda's World: A Guide to Trolberg, the Wilderness, and Beyond", which contains an image of a woff egg. A Woff Egg is first seen in "Chapter 1: The Train to Tofoten". A baby woff can immediately fly after hatching.

Trolls A Troll is a rock like creature that comes in many sizes, resembling rocks in daylight with long noses, and a large beast in the nighttime. They appear in the graphic novel series, the animated series, and the Hilda Tie-In Series. Appearance Trolls are huge, muscular creatures with stone-like bodies. They come in a large variety of shapes and sizes, though the troll as depicted on the page image is one of the most commonly seen versions: large boulders, but with large stumpy arms and legs, with white blank eyes that seem to glow, and a large mouth with several sharp teeth. All trolls in season 1 of the animated series and the first 4 graphic novels look like this, but season 2 and the last 2 graphic novels introduce a wider variety of Trolls and some of them have fur (aka grass or vines). By day, Trolls petrify into rocks under the influence of the sun. These Troll Rocks have the appearance of large boulders or stones that still vaguely resemble their true forms, with long nose-like protrusions. According to the troll information book seen in "Hildafolk", the petrification process is not a pleasant or comfortable experience, and on smaller and weaker trolls the effect can be permanent. As such, most trolls will try to avoid sunlight by hiding in caves or thick forests during the daytime. They rarely journey too far from their lairs to avoid getting caught out by the approaching sun. However, when night comes, or if a Troll Rock is taken out of the sunlight through other means (like putting it in a darkened room), they will turn into their real appearance A lesser known fact is that when Trolls are close to their common ancestor Amma, they can sprout flowers and plants all over their bodies. Behavior Trolls are very strong, even their children, and thus they can cause a lot of damage when angered. They have their own language that, to humans, sounds like roars, growls and gargles, but is actually as sophisticated as the human tongue. Trolls are meat-eaters by nature, but few of them actually eat humans. The unfortunate human-eating behavior of a few Trolls has given these creatures a bad name. However the majority pose no threat to humans and are content to live their lives undisturbed. Only if threatened will they attack. According to "Hilda and the Hidden People", Trolls are as wary of humans as humans are of them. Trolls have a rich culture, and have their own celebrations. Most trolls like to hoard treasures. "Hilda and the Mountain King" shows that Trundle liked to collect gold and jewels, which can still be found in the ruins of his castle. But because these kind of valuables are hard to come by in this day and age, most trolls have settled for more modest objects to hoard. While being led around the Stone Forest by Baba's mom, Hilda encountered Trolls that hoarded car parts, barrels, bones, and even soft furnishings. Hoards are so important to Trolls, that they believe anything not kept in a hoard means its unwanted. This includes crops and pinned animals, cause as they see it, if the owner wanted it, it would be hidden away and guarded.

Elves An elf is a small creature that lives in a village populated by other elves, which is usually situated in the middle of any area of land, away from other elvish villages. They appear in the graphic novels, animated series, and novelization, though their history, culture and lifestyle are shown in more detail in the latter two. Appearance Elves have pointy ears. For most Elves, their skin complexion is of a pure white color ( Like Alfur Aldric,) but some members have more reddish skins (like the Mayor and the King) or brown (like Adeline). They are shown to have head and facial hair, which, like humans, can be shaped into any style. While their limbs are very thin and stick-like, their torsos are of various shapes and sizes, from skinny to fat. Their basic design is depicted as being very simple and devoid of any details, akin to a stick figure. This lack of detailing may be to better represent how small they really are, compared to humans and other creatures. Elves wear a variety of clothing and armors, varying from village to village and from one hierarchical position to another. Some Elves have beards or mustaches, but most are clean-shaven.Some of the only elves that keep beards are the lost clan. Nisse, A Nisse, also known as a Tontu or a house spirit, is a small creature that usually lives in homes of people. They appear in the Graphic Novels, the animated series, and the Hilda Tie-In Series. In the Graphic Novels, they are first seen in "Hilda and the Black Hound". In the animated series, a Nisse first appears at the end of "Chapter 9: The Ghost", and more about the creature is revealed in "Chapter 12: The Nisse". In the tie-in series, they make their first appearance in "Hilda and the Nowhere Space". All Nisse are called Tontu. The main Nisse that interact with Hilda are Tontu (alpha) and Tontu (Beta). History According to the information about the Giants of Old in the novel "Hilda and the Midnight Giant", both Nisse and Trolls are descendants of the giant Björg. Appearance Nisse vary a lot in appearance and size, from a few inches to over six feet.[1] In "Chapter 13: The Black Hound", Hilda interacts with Nisse that are the same size as her, but also meets one Nisse who barely reaches up to her foot. Common traits they all share: the males typically have lots of hair that covers their entire face, in most cases to the point only their noses are visible. Most Nisse have been shown to have tails, and large, round noses (except one). Almost all Nisse shown are male, the only confirmed female being the mother of Tontu (Beta), who is only seen on a portrait, and in a flashback. Tontu (Beta)'s exact gender is up to debate. They prefer to wear loose fitting attire in earthly colours. Behavior Nisse live in people's houses, inside the so-called Nowhere Space; a pocket dimension made up of the spaces behind bookcases, the tops of cupboards that you can't quite reach, and other such unused space. Nisse are solitary creatures, and incredibly territorial. They naturally distrust other Nisse, making snide comments or offering a negative opinion about them if asked[1], and will violently attack any other Nisse that dares to enter their house. The reason why is unknown, but presumably because there are more of them than there are homes to inhabit. This distrust towards other Nisse doesn't change if a Nisse is evicted. Homeless Nisse, despite having no territory to defend, still try to avoid each other's company. Despite this however, it is apparently possible for Nisse to fall in love and have a family, as proven by Tontu's backstory. They will also work together if absolutely necessary. Nisse gather anything they find lying around the house, and which the home owner presumably no longer wants, in their nests. Relation with humans In older times, People used to bring offerings to the Nisse in their home in return for services, like the Nisse helping to maintain the house. In modern times, most humans are aware of Nisse, but generally don't have a very high opinion of them. The Nisse themselves are partly to blame for this bad reputation due to them badmouthing each other because of their mistrust of other Nisse. Humans usually tolerate Nisse in their homes as long as they keep a low profile. Because of their ability to reside in Nowhere Space, it's generally believed by humans that Nisse can make themselves invisible. Nisse can be forcibly evicted by the owners of the homes they live in, since they are forced to obey if the home owner orders them to leave. Once banished, it can be difficult for a Nisse to find a new home, especially if all other houses already have a Nisse. Nisse can be forcibly evicted by the owners of the homes they live in, since they are forced to obey if the home owner orders them to leave. Once banished, it can be difficult for a Nisse to find a new home, especially if all other houses already have a Nisse.

Relationships Hilda lives with her mother, Johanna. While the two of them can argue from time to time (though notably more so in the graphic novels than the animated series), they love each other deeply. Season 2 sees a temporary dip in their relationship when Hilda begins to lie to Johanna about her adventures and is grounded by her twice, but in Season 3 they are on good terms again. Hilda has a pet deerfox named Twig, whom she loves very much. The two have been together for at least a few years. While still living in the wilderness, Hilda befriended the elf, Alfur. Thanks to him, she could sign the proper paperwork to finally see the Elves. In the animated series and novelization, Alfur went with Hilda when she moved to Trolberg so he could report on city life and continued to be of great help to her there. In the graphic novels, he stayed behind in the wilderness. Once in Trolberg, Hilda became friends with both David and Frida. Her friendship with the two is notably further fleshed out in the animated series and novelization than in the original graphic novels, where they were only minor characters. Just like Frida, she looks out for David and tries to help him overcome his fears. In Season 2, she even becomes Frida's familiar when Frida begins to learn magic. She holds Erik Ahlberg in an extremely low regard for being an absolute glory hound, whose attempts to become as famous as his distant ancestor, Edmund Ahlberg, often endangered her, her friends, other humans and various creatures (although after the events of Hilda and the Mountain King, that may have changed, as she was able to let him see reason and prevent the Safety Patrol from making a deadly mistake (i.e. provoke Amma into standing up and destroying Trolberg). Hilda loves her father, Anders, but he is absent for most of her life, with him only visiting sporadically. When he finally shows up in "Chapter 5: The Job" and makes it clear he intends to stay for a while, Hilda is overjoyed and tries to help him make good on his promise, including getting him a job with The Polecat. She is also close to her great-aunt Astrid.

Johanna's Personality Hilda's mother is caring and supportive, but at times she can worry too much about Hilda not having any "normal" friends her age. Since she lived in Trolberg for a good portion of her childhood, she has a soft spot for the city, and had much less trouble with moving there than Hilda did. However, in "Chapter 8: The Fairy Isle", she admits to Hilda that she does miss the wilderness. In the graphic novels, she is even more worried about Hilda than in the animated series and is known to get angry at her daughter quite easily, often ending discussions with the words "because I said so!". It is also shown in "Hilda and the Bird Parade" that she doesn't like the city that much, despite having moved there, and doesn't want Hilda to go out by herself. This in contrast to the animated series, where she encourages Hilda to embrace Trolberg. In "Hilda and the Black Hound"/"Chapter 12: The Nisse", it is revealed that she distrusts Nisse, considering them to be thieves and liars. She seems to have gotten over this, however, by the end of the story (adapted into "Chapter 13: The Black Hound"), at least when it comes to Tontu. In Season 2 of the animated series, she has actually grown fond of him; allowing him to join them for dinner and other family affairs. In return Tontu uses Nowhere Space to help keep the house organized. Johanna is not shown to be close to anybody else or have any friends. The only people she wants to hang out with are Hilda, Alfur, and Tontu. Hilda even scolds her at one point for this in Chapter 13: The Stone Forest. Her reasoning is unclear, but she seems to be introverted and would avoid socalising with other adults; clearly shown when she was uncomfortable by David's mother, who had taken an interest in her work and shown an interest in getting to know her better.

Relationships Hilda, Johanna and her daughter, Hilda, are very close. Johanna tends to be concerned with matters surrounding her daughter and the mythical creatures she befriends but understands that it is something that Hilda excels at. In the graphic novels, they have a rockier relationship and are prone to arguing. This is most prominently seen in "Hilda and the Stone Forest". But in the end, they love each other. In the animated series, their relationship is better than in the graphic novels throughout Season 1. Season 2 restores some of their characterization from the graphic novels, with the two now being more prone to arguments, though it changes the reason why; in the graphic novels it was because Johanna worried a lot about Hilda, while in the animated series it is because Hilda starts lying about her adventures to her mom. Like in the graphic novels, they eventually reconcile, and in Season 3 they are once again on good terms with each other. Anders In the graphic novels and for most of the animated series, she never mentions Hilda's father in any way, leaving it unknown what her exact relationship with him was. When he finally shows up in Season 3, Johanna seems to be on friendly terms with him, but at the same time has no high opinion of him due to his tendency to always run off into another adventure whenever he gets overwhelmed. When Tontu asks if Anders is going to live with them, Johanna immediately says no, and at the end of the season Anders moves into his own apartment. All in all, everything indicates they are not in a relationship any longer, but just friends. Alfur In the graphic novels, Johanna never meets Alfur. In the animated series and tie-in books, she and Alfur get along very well. As he is the only other adult company, she has in her life she trusts him in looking after Hilda wherever she goes and with what she does. Tontu Likewise, initially, Johanna despises all nisse such as Tontu but eventually develop a liking for him. Astrid Johanna has a good relationship with her aunt, mainly because her aunt was her main caretaker after her parents disappeared. Still, she was not happy her aunt did not come to Trolberg with her, and the two have a falling out in Season 3 after Johanna learns Astrid lied to her about there still being a Fairy Mound in Tofoten. They eventually make up. Astrid even decided to sacrifice her own life for Johanna.

Frida's Personality In the graphic novels, not much is revealed about Frida's personality since she only has a small role. The animated series gives her a more developed personality, which also partly carries over to the novelization: Frida is strong minded, intelligent, and highly organized, and always makes detailed plans for everything (so much in fact that Hilda actually wondered if perhaps Frida was raised by Elves). She is prone to panic if her plans are ruined by unforeseen circumstances. She is also competitive, always wanting to be the best. However, she tends to overthink things and tries too hard to be seen as perfect. The very idea that she might not be perfect scares her, as proven in chapter 9, when it is revealed, she is not as neat as she appears to be. Her room was always tidy because a ghost helped her out. Without him, it quickly became a huge mess. This caused Frida to severely doubt herself, and eventually her insecurities led to a huge argument between her and her friends. She plays a triangle for the Warblers. Her favorite book is "The Legend of Great King Condon".

Relationships In the animated series, Frida lives with her father and mother. She is an only child. While her parents love her, they do push her to be perfect and she is terrified to disappoint them. In Chapter 5: The Troll Rock, they ask Mrs. Hallgrim to give Frida more math homework to bring up her score from ninety-nine to one hundred. Hilda: She first meets Hilda in "Chapter 2: The Midnight Giant", but they were properly introduced after Hilda joined the Sparrow Scouts. The two girls quickly became friends, especially after Hilda rescued Frida when she got stuck in a Vittra tunnel. Their friendship was temporarily soured however in "Chapter 9: The Ghost", when Hilda failed to reclaim a book Frida lost. They reconciled in "Chapter 13: The Black Hound" after Hilda rescued her from the Black Hound. When Frida begins her studies to become a Witch in Season 2, Hilda becomes her familiar. David: Frida and David have been friends since before the start of the series (a flashback shows both have been members of the Sparrow Scouts together for at least a year prior to the events of "Chapter 8: The Tide Mice"). She frequently looks out for him and tries to keep him out of trouble. Alfur: After signing the paperwork in chapter 7, Frida became able to see Elves. She and Alfur later met and got along pretty well due to their shared love for order, schedules and knowledge. Kelly: Frida befriended Kelly after driving away Hilda and David in episode 9. Kelly planned to make Frida a Marra as well. This never happened as David and Hilda interfered, and Kelly soon after double crossed Frida to escape from The black hound. Matilda Pilqvist: In Season 2. Matilda becomes Frida's teacher in the arts of Magic.

David's Personality In the graphic novels, not much is revealed about David's personality, other than the fact that bugs are somehow attracted to him, and as such there is always one on him somewhere. In the animated series, he gets a more developed personality that also carries over into the Hilda Tie-In Series. Here, David tends to be quickly scared and easily distracted, as well as a bit clumsy. It often takes his friends' encouragement to get him over his fears. He has very little time for selfishness, laziness, and cruelty, especially after hanging around with Hilda and gaining more confidence in himself. In chapter 12, he managed to stand up to the Marra. David has at least one talent, that being he's a great singer. For this reason he has tried several times to audition for the Warblers, the choir of the Sparrow Scouts. His clumsiness and bad luck, however, kept him from passing the auditions, until Hilda helped him out with Tide Mice. David is one of the characters in the animated series with the biggest character development. As his character at the end of Season 2 and the movie is almost completely different from how he was and behaved in Season 1. One of the things that has notably changed is him not being that easily scared of things anymore. He also defends and stands up for himself more and his friends, and isn't that reluctant to adventures. In Season 3, being now older than he was in the previous two seasons, David has become more easygoing and confident, though his original personality occasionally resurfaces when he is faced with a scary situation. He's also shown to be a bit more athletic now with him initiating a game of football with Frida while in Tofoten.

Relationships In the animated series, he lives with his parents, and is an only child. David has been friends with Frida since before the start of the series. The two of them have been with the Sparrow Scouts for at least a year by the time Hilda moved to Trolberg, as seen in a flashback in chapter 8. Before Hilda came to Trolberg, they already stayed with each other during lunchtime, and recess in school. After Hilda joined the Sparrow Scouts, David quickly became friends with her too, and stayed friends with her after their friendship with Frida got strained. While he is not always excited about the adventures that Hilda keeps dragging him into, he nevertheless considers her a close friend.

Alfur Aldric's Personality Alfur is a side character and a friend to Hilda. Not much is revealed about his personality in the graphic novels, but in the animated series he is shown to love writing reports about Trolberg to the other Aldric elves. He is mostly known for paperworks and contracts, such as contracts for the exiles from the "The Lost Clan" and paperworks so that other humans can see him, such as Hilda and Frida.

Relationships Alfur was the first elf to contact Hilda after the other elves decided they wanted Hilda and Johanna to move. In the animated series, he has since become one of her closest friends. Alfur is a member of the Aldric Family. He appears to have a crush on Adeline, but it hasn't been confirmed quite yet if he did like her.

Twig's Personality Twig is a protective, trusty and brave animal who likes to help Hilda. When he is protective, he goes in front of Hilda and growls at anyone that she doesn't know when they go up to her. However, he can also be scared, as seen in "Chapter 1: The Hidden People", when he gets scared by a troll. He also isn't too fond of Water Spirits, as proven in "Chapter 7: The Lost Clan", when he refused to come along with Hilda and Frida when a water spirit gave them a ride to the island of the Lindworm. He is usually quick to realize something is not right, or a certain person/creature cannot be trusted. He has a sharp sense of smell; he was even able to follow the scent of a Marra despite her ability to teleport. Relationships Hilda loves Twig very much. He has been her pet since before the start of either the graphic novel series or the animated series, and is very loyal to her. He will try to defend her even against bigger opponents or if he's outnumbered. He also gets along well with Hilda's other friends, David, Frida, and Alfur, and Hilda's mother Johanna.

Kaisa's Personality Kaisa is usually calm, but can be rather strict with rules. In "Chapter 8: The Tide Mice", she directly confronted Hilda when she discovered the library's secret chamber and got a bit stern. In "Chapter 3: The Witch" when Hilda and Frida found out about the Witches Tower, she felt a bit annoyed and embarrassed. She has the uncanny ability to always know exactly what book people are looking for, even before they can ask her about it. Another quirky thing about her is that she has memorized the entire layout of St. Guglows Cemetery. This last thing she doesn't want to admit however. She is later seen as having some insecurity about her abilities as a witch, believing she wasn't the witch she was trained to be. She clearly showed worry that her teacher would be disappointed with her, and that she was nothing more than a librarian rather than a proper witch. These beliefs are later dispelled with some help from Hilda and Frida, the latter of whom is even accepted as a student by her former mentor. Because of her duties of being a witch and librarian, Kaisa may seem like an outcast who is private, soft-spoken and kept secret. However, she seems like a very calm and kind person who is content with most things, even if it means offering someone information, advice, or a task to handle and has a little sense of humor. As she opens up a bit more to Hilda and her friends, seen in "Chapter 11: The Jorts Incident", she humorously complements how delicious and addictive Jorts are and when assisting Hilda and the others to vacuum the tide mice, she seems to get a thrill out of things. She states after that she's never had so much fun in a while and compliments to David on their teamwork. David questioned her way of fun and replied that she doesn't get out much. This is likely due to the strict rules and insecurities she's was bound to being a witch that burdened her (like in the movie, when witches aren't allowed to get involved in troll affairs), which she finally is able to let go of.

Relationships The residence of where Kaisa lives or who she's related to as a family is unknown. She works at the Trolberg Library within Trolberg and is secretly in the Witches Tower as a witch trainee to The Committee of Three and Matilda. It is unknown if she actually lives in the library or the Witches Tower, but she seems to spend a lot of time there and states that she doesn't get out much. Kaisa has often assisted Hilda, Frida, and David with various tasks and has since then become one of their biggest supporters throughout the series. Due to being secretive and a librarian, she does, however, have some rules that Hilda and others break, such as getting on Hilda's case about things like finding the secret library chamber and the Witches Tower. She also warns them about the dangers of a spell or important task they are about to do, although if it is really important she seems to be alright with the intention.

Wood Man's Personality Woodman is an indifferent character. He tends to barge into houses without permission. In chapters 1 and 2, he is shown barging into Hilda's House to give her wood and read one of his books. He only stays long enough to warm himself by the fire, and leaves the moment anyone tries to strike up a conversation with him. Why he insists on coming to Hilda's house is unknown, since he has a house of his own. Although never hostile, he isn't above using people to get his way. This is seen prominently in Chapter 11: The House in the Woods, where he bets Hilda in a card game with a Forest Giant without her knowing, and deliberately loses her to him, knowing the giant would take her to his lair, thus putting Hilda in a position to help retrieve some other objects the Wood Man lost to the giant in previous games (and even some objects that were never his, like a crown). He is quite relaxed and easily satisfied. When he, Hilda, Alfur, Twig, and the Great Raven got trapped in The House in the Woods, he was the only one who didn't mind and tried to make the best of the situation, though this may also be because he was the only one who did not have any responsibilities or family. Still, he does show on occasion that he cares about the people around him. He brought Hilda and Johanna firewood for their new home in Trolberg when the two were forced to move there, and at the end of Episode 11, he cheered up Hilda by reminding her that despite her living in the city, the wilderness would always be part of her. His favorite drink is dirt tea. He likes to listen to music on records, or play it himself on a guitar. He also has a lot of books, but only informational ones. He's not the type for folk tales and other stories. Relationships He is friends with Hilda, who doesn't seem to mind him coming over. He brings wood to Hilda and her mother. Although Johanna doesn't trust him, she tolerates him around. In "The House in the Woods", the The House he and Hilda were trapped in contained a portrait of a female wood person. It is unknown what his relationship to her is, but she is apparently important to him considering the same house also had portraits of people important to Hilda.

Anders Personality Anders is an adventurous man who cannot stay in one place for long. He also has trouble keeping to a time schedule and not afraid to go against the rules, like allowing Hilda to drive a car even though she's too young for that. Hilda inherited her sense of adventure from him. According to Johanna, Anders always disappears suddenly and without warning to his next adventure whenever he feels overwhelmed. Relationships Anders has a good relationship with his daughter Hilda, who shares his sense of adventure. Whenever he visits, the two have a great time. He is on friendly terms with Johanna, but she has no high opinion of him due to his tendency to always run off on another adventure, sometimes being gone for years. When Tontu asked Johanna if Anders was going to live with them, she immediately told him no, and indeed at the end of the season Anders moves into his own apartment instead. Whatever their relationship was in the past, they are no longer lovers in the present day but just friends at best.

Gerda's Personality Although Gerda serves as Erik's right hand, and goes along with his plans, she is clearly more level-headed and rational than him. While Erik is mostly out for glory, Gerda is genuinely just trying to help people, and unlike him, she is willing to stop and listen to gain a better understanding of the situation. She also does most of the work. She is generally nice and friendly to others, albeit a little bit dense about her surroundings at times, hence the reason why she speaks a slightly louder volume. Originally, she had a bit of dedication to Erik and appeared to admire him as well, until she witnessed Erik’s disregard for safety in favor of impressing everyone to achieve glory. She slowly grew disillusioned with her superior’s arrogance and became sick of his attitude. During their survival in the Woods, Gerda proved to be the only one out of the two actually capable of surviving, which shows she may have some experience with surviving in the wilderness. Biography Gerda is first seen in "Chapter 1: The Troll Circle", when she and Erik drop by at Hilda's house because Hilda won the first Annual Safety Patrol student essay contest with a story about her encounter with a troll. Her price is being allowed to go on patrol with Erik and Gerda for one day to check the city's Troll defenses. They start with an aerial patrol, during which Gerda pilots the Safety Patrol zeppelin. They fly through a group of arguing Weather Spirits, who zap the zeppelin. Gerda is barely able to avoid a crash. The three continue their patrol by car. When Hilda leads Gerda and Erik to a group of petrified Trolls that she saw outside Trolberg, Erik takes his time to have Gerda take some photos of him posing next to the trolls. They forget the time however, and the sun sets while they are still near the trolls. Gerda attempts to fight off a Two-Headed Troll with the car, but the troll wrecks the car. Gerda saves herself by using the cars inflatable shield, and urges Erik and Hilda to run while they still can. She is later revealed to have escaped the trolls by using the Vittra tunnels in the area. In "Chapter 6: The Old Bells of Trolberg", Gerda is present during Erik Ahlberg's ceremony to officially introduce the new mechanical bell ringers that Ahlberg installed in all the bell towers. When Hilda and Frida sabotage the system by cutting a wire, Gerda quickly activates the backup system so the ceremony can continue. Hilda still manages to sabotage everything by putting the bells on maximum volume. This cause the bell ringers to short out, and the bell from the central bell tower to get dislodged. It lands on top of Erik, after which Gerda can be seen trying to free him. In "Chapter 7: The Beast of Cauldron Island", Gerda assists Erik in his attack on Cauldron Island, where the Lindworm is supposedly sinking ships. They soon find out however that the real culprit is a Kraken. When the Kraken wrecks several ships and intercepts Erik's harpoon, Gerda is ordered by Erik to retreat. In "Chapter 12: The Replacement", Gerda is alerted to the commotion at the Farmers Market caused by Alfur Aldric, the Bragga Family, and the Delegation for the Return of Wayward Elves. Like all the other humans present, she is unable to see the Elves and thus mistakes them for spirits. She hears voices coming from a Light House decoration, and takes it to Safety Patrol HQ to interrogate the Spirits, not realizing she caught a group of Elves instead. While Gerda admits that she doesn’t know anything about questioning Spirits, she gives it a try anyway. In a handbook about Spirits, she reads that Spirits will respond by submerging them in water, and decides to test this theory by filling the box she locked the Elves in with water. Alfur, who followed her to HQ, calls out to her, and claims to be a representative of the Spirit Safety Patrol. He convinces Gerda that these “rogue spirits” shall be dealt with if she releases them into his custody, and quickly puts together the proper paperwork for her to sign. Gerda believes him, signs the paperwork, and releases the Elves. While she and Alfur talk, Gerda drops a hint that she doesn’t like Ahlberg that much despite being his right hand. In "Chapter 13: The Stone Forest", while Gerda and Erik are patrolling the area outside Trolberg with their zeppelin, they notice David and Frida, who are looking for Hilda. Frida accidentally startles a group of Woff, who collide with the zeppelin and cause it to crash. With no way to return to Trolberg before nightfall, the group spends the night in the woods. Gerda tries her best to keep the kids safe, especially after Frida accidentally transforms Ahlberg into a bug. During the night. Gerda comes to realize that the Trolls may not be as bad as she thought when one of them sits down at the campfire with them to enjoy some Jorts. The following morning, Alfur finds the group. While Gerda is still unable to see him, she recognizes his voice from their previous meeting, and is told by Frida what Alfur truly is. Together with David and Frida, she manages to restore build the emergency blimp from a kit they could salvage from the wreckage, and they use it to rescue Johanna from a landslide caused by the Two-Headed Troll. Once back in Trolberg, Gerda takes Frida and David to HQ so Frida can turn Ahlberg back to a human. She succeeds, after which Ahlberg immediately tries to rope the kids into giving a statement to the press about how he rescued them. By now, Gerda realizes how incompetent and egocentric Ahlberg truly is, so she quickly escorts the 2 kids out of the room, ignoring Ahlberg’s rant, and takes them home. In "Hilda and the Mountain King", Gerda is seen several times accompanying Erik Ahlberg during his patrols outside the city and when he gives a press conference. She still tries in vain to point out the flaws in his plans, but gets ignored every time. When Ahlberg agrees to accompany Johanna to search for Hilda, he puts Gerda in charge of the cities defenses. When Trundle attacks the city, Gerda actually listens to Hilda's warning that fighting back would provoke Amma into destroying Trolberg, and refuses to attack Trundle. Ahlberg fires her for insubordination and kills Trundle himself. Fortunately, Hilda is able to use Trundle's eye to make Ahlberg realize the danger, and he comes around. At the end of the movie, Ahlberg retires from the Safety Patrol and makes Gerda the new head. Her first order is to initiate The Night of the Trolls as an annual event that allows Trolls to be near Amma. In Season 3 Gerda has two brief cameo's; first in "Chapter 7: Strange Frequencies" when Hilda and Tontu pass through her house while chasing a Nisse, and finally in "Chapter 8: The Fairy Isle", where she and Alfur notice the Marra during the Bird Parade and make some notes of them.

Astrid's Biography In her youth, she and her brother Phinium would frequently visit the human world. Here they met the human girl Lydia and the three instantly became friends. As they reached adulthood, Phinium and Lydia fell in love and married while Astrid would visit less and less, not in the least because traveling between the human world and Fairy Country got harder and harder. When Phinium decided to stay in the human world forever to be with his family rather than risk getting stuck in Fairy Country, he convinced Astrid to do the same so they could be together. The whole family moved from Lydia's cabin to a bigger house in Tofoten. For a while, all was well and Astrid helped Phinium and Lydia to take care of Johanna. However, due to a deal the two were forced to make with the Fairy Entity when their daughter Johanna got sick, they were forced to leave Tofoten for Fairy Isle when Johanna turned ten and leave Johanna in the care of Astrid. At their request, Astrid performed a memory spell on Johanna to erase most of her childhood memories, so she would not feel like her parents abandoned her. At some point in the past, she signed the paperwork to see Elves. Astrid stayed in Tofoten after Johanna moved to a boarding school in Trolberg following a narrow encounter with a Fairy Mound. She still lives there at the start of Season 3, making a living selling her homemade charms to tourists, and taking care of mail orders. After Hilda was born, Astrid would occasionally visit her and Johanna, but they never visited her in Tofoten. That is until the events of "Hilda and the Fairy Village", when she invites Hilda and Johanna over to her house for the summer, and allows for David, Frida, and Tontu to come as well. She gives all of them some of her homemade charms, and spends some good time with Johanna. On their second night in Tofoten, when the group goes camping, Hilda catches Astrid sneaking out of the tent. Hilda then follows her, and sees Astrid perform some rituals near a nearby hill, including placing a lot of her homemade charms around it. When Hilda and friends investigate the hill the next day, they learn it's a real Fairy Mound and are pulled into Fairy Country. Astrid and Johanna save them just in time. Astrid admits she was afraid something like this would happen, hence her rituals from last night. Johanna is understandably furious that Astrid never told her there was a real Fairy Mound in Tofoten, and that she endangered Hilda like this. She plans to take the first train back to Trolberg. Hilda takes the charm Astrid gave her with her to Trolberg. In "Chapter 3: The Giantslayer", after she breaks the charm, she calls Astrid for advice. Astrid tells her about the Faratok tree and how Hilda can fix the charm with it's wood. In "Chapter 8: The Fairy Isle", after Hilda learns that her father Anders is in Fairy Country, she decides to go back there to help him while Frida and David stand guard outside the Fairy Mound. Johanna tries to warn Astrid, but can't reach her, and thus goes to Tofoten herself. Thanks to Frida magically creating a portal in the mound, Hilda is able to rescue Anders, but by then Johanna has already entered the Fairy Mound, looking for her daughter, so Hilda goes back in. Frida can't hold the portal open much longer and faints. David and Anders take her to Astrid's house. When Astrid learns what happened, she gives David instructions on how to nurse Frida back to health, and then goes to Fairy Country herself to look for her niece and grandniece. She finds Hilda, who is accompanied by a young girl, unaware the girl is her mom who has regressed back to her ten-year-old self upon entering Fairy Country. Astrid tries to prevent Hilda from going further, but Hilda breaks free and hops on a White Woff along with Johanna. They eventually find Johanna's parents, who are living in a replica of Lydia's old house. When Astrid also catches up with them, they reveal the whole story of Johanna's past and Astrid restores the memories she locked away, allowing Johanna to recall her childhood. However, now that Johanna and Hilda are here, the bargain has been broken and Astrid knows the Fairy Entity will never let them go now. When Johanna and Hilda attempt to escape anyway with help of the Deer-foxes, Astrid goes to bargain with the Fairy Entity. She points out to the entity how it is dying and how it is only making things harder for itself by stubbornly holding onto the claim it has on Johanna's life, even though there's nothing to be gained from this claim. However, the Entity is enraged by Astrid's rudeness and does everything in it's power to stop Hilda and Johanna from leaving. It is ultimately unable to prevent them from escaping, but with the bargain broken, Johanna's childhood sickness returns and she comes close to dying. She is saved when Astrid finally gets through to the Fairy Entity by offering her own life for Johanna's. Astrid in turn is then saved when Victoria Van Gale (who had ended up in Fairy Country after her botched Nowhere Space experiment in "Chapter 5: The Windmill) arrives in the cave and offers herself to the Entity in Astrid's place. The Entity accepts and spares Astrid, but casts her out of Fairy Country for good for being so rude. Astrid doesn't mind since she gets to return to her family this way. She is last seen when The Pooka returns to her all the stuff he borrowed from her.

Phinium Biography As children, Phinium and his sister Astrid would frequently visit the human world. Here they met a human girl named Lydia, and became close friends with her despite the rule that fairies are not allowed to interact with humans. As they grew up, Phinium and Lydia eventually fell in love, married, and had a daughter, Johanna. They moved into the human village of Tofoten together, with Astrid also moving in with them since traveling between the fairy world and human world became more and more difficult. Sadly, disaster struck when Johanna fell gravely ill and the doctor claimed she would not survive. To save their daughter, Phinium and Lydia struck a deal with the Fairy Entity. The entity agreed to cure Johanna if her parents would give Johanna to it on her tenth birthday. Out of options, they agreed. Sometime later, after Johanna was attacked by the Spider Frog, Phinium and Lydia trapped the beast in a lake using magic charms. They also taught Johann how to ride a Woff. When Johanna turned ten and it was time for Phinium and Lydia to uphold their end of the bargain, they negotiated a new bargain with the Fairy Entity; they would give themselves to the Entity instead and move to Fairy Isle forever, never to visit the human world again. Again, the Entity agreed. Thus, Phinium and Lydia were forced to leave their daughter behind in the care of her aunt Astrid and moved to Fairy Isle. At their request, Astrid performed a memory spell on Johanna so she would not feel like her parents abandoned her. This also erased Johanna's memories of the more fantastical elements of her youth, like her encounter with the Spider Frog. Phinium and Lydia settled in a replica of their old cabin on Fairy Isle, and through the islands watchtower kept an eye on Johanna and eventually Hilda after her first encounter with a Fairy Mound. When they saw Hilda's father Anders was in danger after he got trapped in the ruins of Fort Ahlberg with an angry troll, they pulled him into Fairy Country to save him. Hilda first meets her grandparents after she finds out her father is in Fairy Country and uses the Fairy Mound in Tofoten to go there herself. She rescues Anders, only to learn that Johanna also went into the Fairy Mound to look for her. Once in Fairy Country, Johanna reverts back to her ten-year-old self and forgets all about Hilda. She instead thinks she is looking for her own parents. Hilda teams up with the young Johanna, neither of them knowing who the other is, and eventually they find Phinium and Lydia. This restores Johanna back to her adult self. When Astrid also shows up in Fairy Country, they tell Hilda and Johanna the full story and restore Johanna's memories. Together, they spend some time in Fairy Isle, bonding and having a picnic. Unfortunately, Johanna and Hilda being here means the bargain has been broken, and the island will never let them leave. Phinium and Lydia both try to convince Johanna and Hilda that it is best to submit to the will of the island and the Fairy Entity. Phinium tells Hilda more about the island, like how the island provides the fairies with everything they need. He also assures Hila that in time she will learn to fly, like all fairies. Johanna is tempted to stay on the island, but Hilda knows the island, beautiful as it may be, is essentially a prison where nothing ever changes. Thus, when Twig leads his herd of Deer-foxes to Fairy Isle to rescue them, Hilda convinces her grandparents to assist them, while Astrid goes to bargain with the Fairy Entity. When Johanna and Hilda try to make their way to the lightbridge of the Deer-foxes, the island fights back, but with help of Phinium, Lydia and the Deer-foxes they are able to escape. Phinium and Lydia stay behind in Fairy Country, since they could never go back anymore. They are last seen using the watchtower to watch Hilda and her friends enjoy the Bird Parade.

Lydia Biography As a child, Lydia lived in the cabin build by her father. One day she met the fairies Astrid and Phinium. She became close friends with them, despite the rule that fairies are not allowed to interact with humans. As they grew up, Phinium and Lydia fell in love, married, and had a daughter, Johanna. They moved into the human village of Tofoten together. Sadly, disaster struck when Johanna fell gravely ill, and the doctor claimed she would not survive.
