At the Freyshof Dedication, we revealed that we have chosen a devotion to Allsherjargoði Sveinbjörn Beinteinsson of the Ásatrúarfélagið as our Hof Heilagmenn, or Hof Hero. I chose Allsherjargoði Beinteinsson for two main reasons. The first is that I want the Freyshof culture to recognize the importance of modern Ásatrú heroes.
