Vainamoinen is the Kalevala's greatest hero and minstrel. His mother is Ilmatar (q.v.), so Vainamoinen has divine ancestors (like many of the Finnish heroes). He is called "Son of the Wind" by his friends and enemies alike.
Vainamoinen appears as an elderly fighter wearing +5 leather armor. He has two weapons which he wields alternately: a +5 battle axe and on in¬telligent +3 sword of sharpness. This sword talks, and it can cast a fear spell once per day. He wears a girdle of cloud giant strength (which gives him a strength of 23). He has two magical crossbows: one combines the
abilities of crossbows of accuracy, distance and speed, and the other, once started, loads and fires itself at Vainamoinen's enemies until stopped (much like the way a dancing sword fights by itself).
In addition to his clerical, illusionist and bardic spell powers, Vainamoinen can shape change, dispel magic, and use monster summoning I-IV al will He is immune to the effects of charm-type spells and disease.
Vainamoinen has two special methods of transportation. He has a special horse (AC 3, MV 24", HD 10, hp 59, #AT 3, D 1-10/1-10/1-6, immune to magical attacks) that can pull his sledges ()cross land or water, drawing weights of up to 300,000 gp with no appreciable loss of speed. He has a canoe-sized boat that can carry huge quantities of objects in much the same manner as a bag of holding: it can hold up to 60,000 gp of weight in a volume of 1,000 cubic feet.
